Herzog Jewelers

To understand Herzog Jewelers today, it's important to take a look at Herzog Jewelers from the beginning.  Let's go back to 1922, when phones had been around for less than 50 years and flappers were bobbing their hair. In that year, our founder, Elmer T. Herzog, opened up a small jewelry store at 806 Madison Avenue in Covington, Kentucky. While working long hours serving his customers (something we can all relate to even today), he earned a reputation as a solid community member and trustworthy jeweler. And to think, he did all of this without a smart phone, call waiting or a laptop!  Fast-forward to 1980, when cell phones were the size of infants and hair was even bigger. It was in this year that Elmer retired and his son-in-law, Joseph Koester, Jr., took over.  Combining old-fashioned customer service with modern conveniences, Joe continued to build the business into what you see today

Eventually, a good thing became even greater-and Herzog Jewelers needed a new larger home to accommodate both the repeat customers and newer, younger clients. Herzog Jewelers made the move from Covington to Fort Mitchell, Kentucky in November 1982. The larger showroom allowed Herzog to offer a larger selection to keep up with the most current styles and trends in addition to offering classic pieces.  After the big move, Herzog Jewelers joined the American Gem Society (AGS), an association dedicated to business ethics and professionalism. Wanting to keep up on the industry to better help his customers, Joe became a Graduated Gemologist from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and a Certified Gemologist from the AGS. Additionally, Joe became a Master Jeweler with the Independent Jewelers Organization (IJO), the largest jewelry buying organization in the world. We also joined the buying group Retail Jewelers Organization (RJO) to help us stay on top of the continuing trends and education that is need to stay in the for front of our industry.  Bringing a third generation into the business, Ted Koester joined his father in 1996 when he too earned his certificates as a Graduated Gemologist (GIA) and a Certified Gemologist (AGS). Today, Ted and his father carry on the same standards Elmer T. Herzog set more than 94 years ago-with a few modern updates-leading many young couples in the area to discover the same Herzog Jewelers their parents and grandparents have appreciated over the years. They continue to build their business on the core principle belief that to succeed in anything in life, you must be honest, straight forward and passionate. These simple ideas have kept them as leader in their communities for the last 94 years.
