We are a family owned local business who take great pride in the merchandise and services we offer. As we like to say, "Mefford's Jewelers, where the name on the outside is the same as the folks on the inside." |
Mefford's Jewelers of Alabama, Inc. was started in 1945 by O.T. "Pete"
Mefford, Sr. and his wife, Julia on Seminary Street in downtown
Florence. They were soon joined by their son, O.T. Mefford, Jr.
Mefford's originally started as a watch and jewelry repair shop, but
gradually added other lines of watches, jewelry, and giftware. Today,
Mefford's is still located in the heart of downtown Florence; now at the
corner of Court and Tennessee Street. Olin Mefford, III joined the store
in 1975 and Russell Mefford in 1996.
