Philadelphia’s Bar-Kay Jewelers to close after 75 years

Rockledge, Pa. – Bar-Kay Jewelers is closing its doors after 75 years in business.

The company announced on its Facebook page that owner John Kurowski has decided to retire.

The Northeast Philadelphia store was founded in 1948 as a small watchmaker’s shop by Stanley (Stas’) Kurowski, who died in 2017.

His son John joined the business in 1973, his sister Chris in 1987 and his daughter Kim in 1998.

With the unique skills of each team member, the store grew into a full-service fine jewellery store and repair shop with a loyal, generational customer base.

“We have loved being a part of our customers’ lives for so long,” said John Kurowski. “It’s an incredible feeling, like being part of one big family. We’ll certainly miss that aspect of the business.

Bar-Kay is holding a closing sale at the store for customers to wish the family well and shop the store’s selection of fine jewellery, diamonds, bridal pieces, watches and more at up to 70 per cent off.
