Our Story

Boris Litwin Jewelers is a 4th generation, family-owned, Cincinnati jewelry store. We are knowledgeable, passionate about what we do, and keep our business small on purpose. Our inventory is carefully curated, from fun and trendy through fine. We see jewelry as more than beautiful objects that make their wearers feel beautiful and powerful, although they need to possess these qualities. "To us, good jewelry design speaks of our times and lifestyle. Great jewelry designs transcend the here and now."- BJ Foreman, President

A Brief History of Litwins

Our journey began in 1913 when Boris's Bench Richmond Street, West End of Cincinnati, was where, as a boy of 13, he began designing and crafting jewelry with his father, Akim. Their workshop was Grandpa Boris's bedroom. No fax machines, computers, or the Internet-just great design and a strong work ethic. Over the years, the business moved to 6th Street downtown, focusing on manufacturing, including diamond cutting. After some time, Litwins was purely retail in our location on Garfield Place. The business transitioned to the sons and the son-in-laws. Sandy Armstrong and Stewart Armstrong sold jewelry from a sunny location on Garfield Place. Sandy's daughter and Stewart's sister, BJ, logged merchandise, filed papers, operated the switchboard, and ran errands during her high school and college years. "From that day's perspective, I was doing women's work, but I was really learning the business from the inside out, " said BJ.

Litwin Women at the Helm

After the deaths of Sandy and Stewart, BJ and mother Charlotte decided to continue the family business. "Mom insisted that I become the president and she the vice president. She came to work almost every day thereafter-a true steady ender. Even my mom's sister, Aunt Pearl, was part of the team, " BJ said.
