James Goss, who has been involved in the jewelry business 14 years, has returned to Hermiston and opened his own store.
Goss Family Jewelers, which he operates with the help of his mother, Cynthia, opened Wednesday in the Watson Building at 138 E. Main St.
After developing an interest in jewelry-making in high school, Goss, 36, attended jewelry schools and worked in jewelry stores in Hermiston, La Grande, Baker City and the Caribbean before returning to Hermiston, where his mother has lived since 1975. He said he's dabbled in other careers, "but I always found myself coming back to jewelry."
A goldsmith and jewelry designer, Goss said he specializes in creating custom jewelry and making jewelry repairs, but also provides minor watch repairs.
The store offers watches and gold and silver jewelry with diamonds and other precious stones. It also features a case that displays work from a local "artist of the month."
