About Us
B&D Family Jewelers, Inc. began as a home-based business over twenty ago. The business was founded by Betty Kirtley. Because of her creative flair coupled with a penchant for all things sparkling and an entrepreneurial spirit, the business had a humble beginning. Through successful networking and word-of-mouth advertising her business grew. In 1998, Betty opened her storefront. Today at her second location, she operates a full spectrum fine jewelry establishment. The 2400 square foot storefront and workshop employs four staff members who all stand ready to serve the most discriminating clientele. Inventory from some of the most notable vendors worldwide may be found in their display cases while one-of-a-kind pieces from talented new designers are also on display.
