Alvin, Hyman, and Robert Frockt (Sandee's father) started Royal Jewelers in 1947. Later Royal Jewelers was transferred to the ownership of Robert and Johanna Frockt (Sandee's parents). In the mid 1960's the store was moved from 4th and Market to 4th and Jefferson in downtown Louisville.

In 1972 Lynn and Sandee Schulwolf moved back to Louisville to help Johanna Frockt with managing the downtown store.  A second location was opened in the Shelbyville Road Plaza in 1991. Royal operated both locations until 1999 when they combined the two stores into one location.  They moved into a new larger store at 4505 Shelbyville Road where they are located today.
