"We're excited to continue to expand and bring exceptional service and artisan-quality designs to Tennessee."
In Arizona, the jewelry chain opened two stores, one at Arrowhead Towne Center in Glendale and another at Chandler Fashion Center in Chandler.
“Opening dedicated James Avery stores in Arizona is an exciting milestone," said Dolgin.
"We're deepening that connection by bringing Arizona customers the full in-store experience James Avery is known for — personal service, craftsmanship, and meaningful design."
The company now operates 135 stores across six states, including Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia, Louisiana, Arizona, and Tennessee.
The retailer recently committed to donating $1 million to flood relief efforts in its hometown of Kerrville, Texas, following the floods earlier this month.
