The Local Jewelry Shop Difference.

Proudly Located in Downtown Sioux Falls Since 1902.

  • My wife and I actually live in Oregon. My wedding ring was bought at Bechtold jewelry store thirty five years ago. We have found them to be so helpful, honest and sell quality products. Not only us but our whole family deals with Thomas James & Bechtold's. Why, because we not only get a quality product but they are go out of their way to help us in any way they can.

  • I can always depend on Bechtold’s for all of my personal and business jewelry needs. The staff is always friendly, prompt and courteous. It is certainly worth a visit when in downtown Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Rob Everist
  • I’ve shopped at Bechtold’s since 1993. Their knowledge, quality, and pricing are unmatched. The consistency of their long-tenured staff speaks volumes in a transient industry, and it’s a wonderful luxury to be able to rely on experts who have been there throughout the years.
