About Owner/Bench Jeweler/ , Charles Reed
Charles started working for his dad Jim full time in 1969. Before then, as a kid he fixed old electric razors that people brought to the store for repair. He began his career with the intentions of being a watchmaker, attending Oklahoma State Tech for their horology program. As the industry changed with cheaper digital watches, effectively killing the watchmaking industry, Charles modified his plans to creating custom jewelry. Since the early 70’s, Charles has been hand carving waxes into the custom piece of jewelry our customers want. Simultaneously, Charles served in the Army National Guard from 1969 to 1975.
