In addition to the shopping experience, the store will also offer service consultations, custom design, repairs, and education sessions.
“This large footprint and new approach to design will present a unique and comfortable environment, a much larger array of bridal and fashion jewelry, and will be more convenient than ever to get to. Customers who had been to our previous location will appreciate the new store’s easy accessibility and spacious parking lot,” said Rottenberg.
The South Shore Plaza location will be open through the end of the year.
Founded in Boston in 1878, Long’s Jewelers operates six stores throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
