ANTHONY RICHARDS

I have been around the jewelry business all my life, from my grandfather’s store, to my dad repairing watches at our house, to opening our store in 1984. I even started light bench work at age 13. With a short term exception, I have been involved with our store since day one. After college and getting my CPA license in 1990, I started working full time at our store. My role has many hats: the “IT” guy, “Mr. Numbers” (finances), advertising, and daily operations of the store. I earned my Graduate Gemologist diploma from the Gemological Institute of America in 2012. I, along with our sales staff, continue my jewelry education with extensive sales training from Rolex, Tag Heuer, and Breitling and other manufactures’ updates on their products.

My biggest role has been being the father of a very involved daughter, Page. I have to have a calendar just to keep up with her busy schedule.

I am proud of our store, where we came from, what we have overcome, and what we have accomplished. I hope you will stop in to see me and join our “jewelry family”.
