Behind every piece of jewelry is a story – and a jeweler who took the time to help the customer find the right piece. This idea has been the driving force behind Kranich Brothers Jewelers, now known as Kranich’s Jewelers. Our story began in 1903 in York, Pennsylvania, when the Kranich brothers opened jewelry stores in Lancaster and York, Pennsylvania, as well as a store in Worcester, Massachusetts.
It wasn’t until 1923 when husband and wife duo, Charles and Mildred Kranich opened the doors of our Altoona store as part of an expansion of the company. Charles and Mildred were later joined in business by their son, Michael, in 1962. After years of nurturing relationships with their customers in these locations, the Kranich family opened another store, this time in downtown State College, PA, home of Penn State University.
In 1978, Charles and Mildred passed away and the family business was taken over by their son, Michael. Time passed, and Michael opened additional locations in the Johnstown Galleria in Johnstown, PA, and dramatically expanded their Logan Valley Mall location and corporate offices.
Michael turned to his family members to grow and maintain the business, as he was joined in 1991 by his son, Charles, and five years later by his other son, Michael. Today, Charles and Michael serve as co-presidents of Kranich’s Jewelers – a truly family-owned and operated business since the very beginning.
Throughout our more than 110 years of serving the Central Pennsylvania region, one constant has remained: our specialization in fine diamond jewelry and engagement rings. Today, we’ve expanded our offering to include fine timepieces, colored gemstones, family, designer, estate and Penn State jewelry.
