Jewels of Orleans closing

Post by elizabethswann » Jan Sat 23, 2010 7:55 pm

Very Sad News, Jewel of Orleans is closing as of April 15th

The Estate Jewelery store, Jewel of Orleans, part of the Dianne's Estate Jewellery chain, has made a tough business decision due to the tough economy, and has decided to close its location at New Orleans Square.

First off, the decision is TOTALLY Dianne's, and has nothing to do with Disney. The economy just isn't the best for places that sell more expensive items in general. Dianne's will still operate its two stores in San Francisco and Healdsburg in Northern California.

The NOS location will continue to receive new items for sale until its closure, and will operate in the same way as its has for over 10 years. There are some adjustments being made to the layaway program, now offering a 6 month interest free layaway program instead of 12 months. For those who have something on layaway currently, they are currently fine tuning the way to handle those pieces, but trust me, Dianne's will work with you, and you should have no worries about the final outcome. Hopefully I will have more details in next week's article.

Here is a link to their main website, where you can contact them with any specific questions you might have regarding your purchases.

I just recently heard that DL is opening a new shop in this location, but keeping the name "Jewel of Orleans".

It will be interesting to see what the store is like...so sad to see the old shop gone. :( (though I could never buy anything in there, it was always fun to look)

I wish I could remember where I read that...perhaps MiceChat. If I find it again, I'll post a link.
