Ken & Joanne |
In 1990, Ken & Joanne Osborne opened their first Jewelry location. They originally began as Maryvale Jewelers, located at Indian School & 51st Ave. In 2015, they moved to their new location and Osborne Jewelers Inc. was born. They have four wonderful kids and three grandchildren.
Ken started in the Jewelry business when he was fourteen helping out his brother in his store in Alabama. After high school he went to the Gemological institute of America where he became Arizona’s youngest Gemologist. From an apprentice to Master Jeweler and Graduate Gemologist, Ken is known state wide for his expertise in jewelry design, repair and appraisals.
Joanne is found more in the community then the jewelry store floor. She is the business and marketing side of the house, but can be found in the store on most holidays and is always available for appointments. Joanne also serves as one of our Arizona State Representatives and if you know Joanne she has a soft spot for mentoring kids. She encourages all their business peers to follow the guidelines of their heart, to make their workplace a light of hope for their employees, to strive to better their community, to give back and to always remember – while your business may be in your mind 24/7 – it cannot prosper if you do not balance your Faith, Family, and Fellow Man.
