DURING THE prosperity of the Arkansas Oil
Boom in 1939, Jerome Murphy opened Murphy's
Jewelers in Magnolia. His son, Richard, joined his
father in the family business in 1972, and with 40
years of experience, the store has grown into what
it is today - the jewel of downtown Magnolia.
" My family has always taken great pride in
providing the finest quality and most beautiful
jewelry in the world, " Richard says.
" I consider our customers our friends and take
great pride in serving third- and fourth-generation
customers and friends. It continues to be very
rewarding to help celebrate special occasions with
our timeless treasures. "
Richard's daughter Maggie, has joined the
team, making Murphy's a third-generation
establishment.
Mark Williams and Aaron Wilkerson both
joined the store in the early 1990s. Mark is a
managing partner of the store and has 24 years of
experience, and Aaron is Murphy's bench jeweler
with over 21 years of experience.
After rejoining the Murphy's team in 2019,
Melissa Franks brings more than 10 years of
experience. The Murphy's team is personally

involved in the day-to-day operations and
interactions with customers.
Wilkerson says the shop and service department
are able to repair, appraise and service customer
jewelry in house.
" We offer the latest technology in our repairs
using our laser welder. With our laser, we can
repair many pieces never before possible and also
with more safety to your precious stones mounted
in your jewelry, " he says. " Our laser welding
machine, years of experience and thorough
processes will service and repair your jewelry,
with care and quality, keeping your jewelry pieces

The business provides engraving on many items
to specialize that perfect gift, Franks says.
" Murphy's offers battery replacement and other
service options for your watches and clocks. We
are a full-service jewelry store.
" Murphy's still provides the traditional jewelry
today, as well as a new styling allowing customers
to customize and personalize their own jewelry
masterpiece, " she says. " Not only do we offer the
