Edward McNulty opened McNulty Jewelers in Briargate 10 years ago, and now he is expanding to Black Forest. He is taking over the spot where Black Forest Jewelers occupied. Linda and Don Spurr retired from their jewelry business, and it was a great opportunity for McNulty to move into the space, said Cassandra Carter, manager of both stores.Carter said she worked with the Spurrs over the last couple of years. ìI got to know them very well,î which made for a smooth move, she said. ìAnd weíve spent time in Black Forest, getting to know the community.îMcNulty Jewelers will offer the same services, from custom design jewelry to ìgift-readyî jewelry to full-service repair. Edward McNulty has been designing and creating jewelry for more than 20 years. Carter said he is an excellent jeweler, and business at the Briargate store has been consistent, with a loyal clientele. McNulty works with all of the precious metals and a wide assortment of gemstones, from diamonds to pearls. Carter, who has been with McNulty Jewelers for more than six years, said, ìThere isnít much we wonít or canít do.îAlthough the services will be the same, the store will not. ìWe have remodeled quite a bit,î Carter said. ìIt looks completely different, with a different color scheme.îThe grand opening was May 25. The Black Forest store at 11425 Black Forest Road is open Tuesday through Friday, from noon to 6 p.m.; and most Saturdays, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
