In the Beginnning

In 1982, as a junior at RIT, I started my first company, Richards and West, with a close friendfrom school. Today, the firm is a highly regarded jewelry manufacturer, providing services to designers,retailers, and major brands. However, my heart has always been at its’ best working with individuals -crafting for them something uniquely theirs’ for the milestones in their lives. With that in mind, my wifeJody and I, opened our current company West & Co., in 1991 in Webster, NY. Although we have alwayscarried a diverse selection of jewelry in all price ranges, our specialty has always been doing what I lovemost – crafting one-of-a-kind pieces.

West and Company Today

Over the years, West & Co. has expanded and today I have clients all across the country. Inaddition to custom work, I also design for other manufactures, including some designs that are soldunder license by other retailers. I do still enjoy collaborating on projects with my former partner. WhenI’m not working at my bench, I can be found spending time with my wife Jody and our three rescuekitties that keep us very entertained. If I’m not at work or home, I am most likely spending quality timewith my family or enjoying a beautiful summer day on Owasco lake.
