About Us

Established in 1932

Gene is the fourth generation to own DeRobertis Jewelers he's known as the fussiest one yet. Each piece of jewelry is carefully inspected before it is placed in the showcases. If it doesn't pass his inspection back to the manufacturer it goes. We often wonder where his rejects wind up. Gene prides himself on providing a low key no pressure family atmosphere in the store.

Gene's great grandfather was a talented goldsmith and stone setter who emigrated from Italy. He established his own business in 1932 and from father to son four generations of the DeRobertis family have served the jewelry needs of the greater West Hartford area. It is not unusual for customers to come in and share stories of dealing with the prior generations. It is also not unusual to have customers bring their children in to purchase an engagement ring from the same store they did.
