Our HistoryOur History
Kimball's from the 19th century to the 21st.
Hope Brothers Jewelers, Kimball's predecessor, opened on Gay Street in the 1870s.
In 1933, the store was purchased by a local businessman and renamed Kimball's. At its historic location in downtown Knoxville, Kimball's became recognized as East Tennessee's premier jeweler.
In 2004, Kimball's relocated to 6464 Kingston Pike. By moving to Bearden Hill, in the heart of Knoxville, we've made shopping more convenient for our customers.
For 138 years, our jewelry store has been locally owned and operated. The Kimball's name has been synonymous with trust, value, quality, and integrity for generations.
