Felton Jewelers opened as "Hinchey Jewelers" in 1967. The original owner, L.T.
Hinchey, was a very talented clock and watch maker. He later added fine
jewelry. Within a year he hired a
salesperson by the name of Shirley Pullen. After 21 years of selling fine jewelry
and taking in repairs for both jewelry and time pieces Mrs. Pullen became the
owner of Hinchey Jewelers in 1989. The store quickly grew into the busiest jewelry
and watch repair shop in the Warrenton area. Hinchey Jewelers was Warrenton's "Hometown
Jeweler".
Our current owner, Darlene Felton brings yet another facet to the stores personality.
With 25 years in the jewelry business and a diverse set of skills, Mrs. Felton
was able to purchase Hinchey Jewelers from Mrs. Pullen. Mrs. Felton's experience
as a lapidary (stonecutter), silversmith and pearl restringer only added in making
Hinchey Jewelers "the place to get your jewelery repaired".
With the support of loyal customers, Hinchey Jewelers was renamed Felton Jewelers,
and to this day continues to carry on the traditions of the "Hometown Jeweler".
Come visit our Warrenton store and you are sure to find friendly
helpful people willing to assist you with whatever you may need.
