Zundels Inc.

Zundel’s was founded on January 27th, 1935 by Ferdinand C. Zundel and was originally located at 8 South Conception Street in downtown Mobile. Over the last 75+ years Zundel’s has grown into one of the finest jewelry stores in the Southeast. The tradition of outstanding service coupled with high quality merchandise has continued through the years under the leadership of Ferd Zundel’s sons, Ferd Zundel Jr. and Bill Zundel, and grandsons Bill Zundel Jr. and Jeff Zundel. Over the years Zundel’s has progressed from its original Conception Street location to Springdale Plaza and then to its current location at 3670 Dauphin Street in Mobile.

From the very beginning Zundel’s has been a family owned business that prides itself on taking care of each customer as if they are family. As a full service jeweler, Zundel’s offers a full line of merchandise and services specializing in loose diamonds, engagement rings, gold and platinum jewelry, estate jewelry, pearls, fine watches, sterling silver jewelry, appraisal services as well as a full manufacturing and repair facility. Zundel’s also offers a full bridal department including wedding gifts, china, crystal, stainless and sterling flatware, groomsmen gifts, and bridal registry.

We understand that birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, child births and many other special occasions, as well as the gifts that commemorate those events, are what will be remembered for generations to come. We look forward to serving our customers as our family for many more generations.

Zundel’s Jewelry has been serving the Mobile and Gulf Coast area for over 85 years. We pride ourselves on offering the very best service in every aspect of our business. Our goal is to take care of the customer and their pieces on every occasion, no matter how large or small, and we offer an array of services to meet our customer’s needs.     Appraisal Service  Zundel’s has three AGS registered jewelers on staff available to appraise your jewelry. Appraisals are by appointment and pieces will need to be left with Zundel’s while the appraisals are being completed. All items purchased from Zundel’s will be appraised free of charge.  Appraisals are written statements of the type, design, quality and value of a specific piece of jewelry. Most appraisals are for insurance or estate purposes and the value of the jewelry is based accordingly. An accurate, detailed appraisal is needed to protect your interest in the event of loss, theft or damage to your jewelry.   Repair Service  Zundel’s jewelry has a full in house repair shop to accommodate all of your repair needs. From simple chain breaks to major restorations, our goal is to treat each piece like a priceless heirloom. Our staff is available to offer time and price estimates during business hours.   Custom Design Service  Zundel’s offers a complete, in house, professional custom design shop. Our staff is available to help in the design of individual and unique pieces to fit your needs using your stones or ours. We can alter existing pieces to fit your current needs or build a one of kind piece from the ground up.   Cleaning and Polishing  Zundel’s offers a full cleaning and polishing service. This service is typically used when there is no need for repair service and the piece just needs a little TLC to put it back into showroom condition.

  Antique and Estate Restoration  Zundel’s can restore antique and estate jewelry to its original condition. Older pieces present a unique challenge as they will need structural stability to be safely worn, but they also need to be repaired and restored in a manner that does not alter or change the look of the original piece. Our staff has extensive expertise and experience in the restoration of older and antique jewelry.   Pearl Stringing  Zundel’s offers a full pearl string service. Pearl necklaces and bracelets need to be restrung after a period of time to prevent the strand from breaking. When a noticeable gap begins to form between individual pearls it is usually time for restringing. All pearls will be strung with knots between each pearl for added security.  

Bridal Registry  Zundel’s has a full bridal staff to assist in the selection and registry of china, crystal, silver and flatware as well as any other pieces that the customer may desire. Our staff is available to work with the bride and groom, as well as their family, before and after the wedding to make sure that the registry process runs smoothly. Our goal is to make the entire event completely enjoyable and exciting. View bridal registries   Wish Book  Zundel’s offers an in store Wish Book to keep a record of your favorite pieces. Our staff is very discrete and we never contact anyone about entries in the Wish Book; but if that special someone comes in and inquires about an entry we are more than happy to help. We encourage everyone to make a few entries and it never hurts to make several; there is always an occasion for jewelry.
