A lot goes into choosing a jewelry store. It’s not just the diamonds in the case or the number of engagement ring styles on display—it’s the feeling you get the moment you walk in, the guidance you receive, and the confidence you feel when you finally say… “this is the one!”
Most places offer the basics—good service, quality pieces, ethically-sourced, and GIA-graded. Those are important, but are considered the bare minimum.
What truly separates a jewelry store apart is how they listen, how they guide, and how they show up for you.
And that’s where Mountz Jewelers stands apart.
Where It All Began
We didn’t start as the jewelry store you know today.
Our story began in 1949, when our family opened a small general store in Malta, PA. As the years went on, we shifted our focus to jewelry and gifts, expanding our offerings as our customers’ needs evolved. Through strategic growth and the continued support of Central Pennsylvania, we slowly became the jewelry destination families return to, generation after generation.
Now, five generations later, we’re proud to serve our community with locations in Carlisle, Camp Hill, and Colonial Park/Harrisburg.
The Mountz Approach
Choosing an engagement ring can feel like its own emotional rollercoaster—there’s excitement, joy, nerves, a bit of overwhelm, especially if you’re unsure where to begin or which style to choose.
That’s exactly where Mountz steps in.
Our goal is to make the process feel warm, guided, and completely personal. We’ll take time to educate, explain, and help you understand what truly fits your style, story, and budget.
Here, you’re not just buying a ring. Here, you create your Mountz Moment.
Before the Purchase
We don’t expect you to walk in knowing everything. We guide you through what matters most, so you can feel confident every step of the way.
With the aid of the 4Cs, here’s how we help you understand the essentials:
CUT
We believe the secret to an extraordinary diamond lies in the cut as it brings a diamond to life. It maximizes brilliance, fire, and sparkle.
At Mountz, we hand-select every stone with cut quality as the top priority. Only the diamonds that meet our standards ever make it into our cases. When we show you a diamond, it’s one we would proudly choose ourselves.
COLOR
Color plays a role in a diamond’s overall look, but the right color is different for everyone. Some prefer icy-whites, while others gravitate toward warmer tones.
At Mountz, we’ll show you side-by-side comparisons and explain how subtle differences affect appearance and price. Our approach is always educational, ensuring the diamond you choose truly reflects your preferences.
CLARITY
Every diamond has natural characteristics that make it unique.
At Mountz, we walk you through your diamond’s GIA report so you can actually understand its origins and see the natural markings and inclusions that make it one-of-a-kind.
CARAT
Carat refers to weight, not size alone. Two stones with the same carat can look completely different depending on their cut and shape.
At Mountz, we help you understand how to maximize visual impact within your budget. Our goal isn’t the biggest one, but the best one for you.
Still Thinking?
We get it! Choosing a piece of jewelry is a big decision. Whether it’s an engagement ring, a milestone gift, a keepsake, or something special just for yourself, jewelry isn’t something you buy or replace on a whim.
That’s why at Mountz, we also take time to understand what matters most to you.
Do you prefer classic or modern?
Vintage or minimal?
Are you looking for a statement piece or something timeless?
Do you want something ready-made or custom-built?
Is this a gift to mark a moment or a piece you’ve been dreaming for yourself?
There’s no right or wrong answer. There’s only your answer.
