Since 1945, Hogans Family Jewellers has had the honour of serving generations of clients. Over the decades, we have witnessed countless special moments, from newly crafted engagement rings to cherished heirlooms returning to our workshop for care, ready to be passed down to the next generation. This year, we proudly celebrate 80 wonderful years in business.
On Saturday, 20 September, we gathered at the iconic Empire Theatre in Toowoomba for a very special evening. Surrounded by family, friends, longstanding clients, and both past and present staff, we came together to honour the incredible legacy of Hogan's Family Jewellers.
The theatre was styled with timeless elegance, reflecting the essence of the Hogan brand. Guests were welcomed into an atmosphere filled with warmth and nostalgia, enjoying a night that celebrated not only the business’s history but also the people who have shaped it. Heartfelt speeches from the Mayor of Toowoomba, former staff, and the Hogan family shared stories of humble beginnings, growth through the decades, and the strong values that continue to guide us today.
With three generations of family involvement, Hogans has always remained dedicated to creating exceptional jewellery and delivering personal service that becomes part of our clients’ most treasured memories. This milestone stands as a testament to the hard work of those who came before us and the exciting future that lies ahead.
From our founders, Jack and Madeleine Hogan, to today’s team, Hogans has been built on integrity, artistry, and an unwavering commitment to our clients. What began as a humble family business has grown into a name synonymous with fine jewellery, well beyond Toowoomba and the Darling Downs region. We are deeply grateful to our clients, many of whom have supported us across generations, for entrusting us with life’s most precious moments.
We also extend our heartfelt thanks to our staff, past and present, whose passion, dedication, and creativity have been the foundation of our success. The Hogan family believes that the strength of any business lies in its people, and we are proud to have built a collaborative, award-winning team that shares a love for jewellery and craftsmanship.
As we reflect on 80 years of tradition and excellence, we look ahead with anticipation to the decades to come. Our promise remains unchanged since 1945: to create jewellery of timeless beauty, to uphold our reputation for quality, to nurture the next generation of artisans, and to continue serving our community with the same dedication that has defined us for eight decades.
Hogan's Family Jewellers - for those who prefer quality.
