POMEROY — The opening of Finlaw’s Jewelry on 115 Second Street in Pomeroy was marked with a ribbon cutting and open house on Friday.

Owner Matt Finlaw said that his emphasis, at least for the time being, will be on repair and custom design work. He described the new business as geared to be “very service oriented” emphasizing such things as repairing and cleaning jewelry, sizing rings and changing batteries.

He has been in the jewelry business for over 20 years, having served over 10 of those years working as an apprenticeship and employee at a Marietta jewelry store.

Store hours will be from 9 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays. He will also be having additional open hours during the holiday season. Finlaw said he will be available to customers by appointment.

The Finlaw family, who live in Pomeroy, consists of Matt and Kristi and their two children, Mattie, 11, and Lucas, 7.

Refreshments were served during the open house.
