The gold-plated, miniature Volkswagen Beetle sits on the shelf in the show room. The vehicle signifies the beginning of a journey, one that still continues today.
Husband and wife Robert Hallett Jr. and Kyle Kotchey started their career packing a 1970 Beetle with jewelry and display cases and going on the road to juried craft fairs and trade shows to sell their custom-made rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets.
They don’t have to travel to sell their wares anymore.
The two own Robert Hallett-Goldsmith in Oakmont.
