Jewelry has been a Saxon family tradition since 1970, when Richard’s father, John A. Saxon, founded Saxon Jewelers. His stores served communities across the region, from Pittsburgh and Steubenville to Morgantown. Today, Richard carries that legacy forward in Weirton.

R.E. Saxon Jeweler is a locally owned, independent store offering a hand-picked selection of fine jewelry, everyday pieces, watches and gifts from a wide range of respected brands. Rather than filling our cases with the ordinary, we choose each piece for its beauty, quality and character.

Owner Richard Saxon brings more than 40 years of jewelry-industry experience, and he and his team offer honest, knowledgeable guidance without pressure. We specialize in diamond engagement rings and wedding bands, and we’re happy to help whether you’re celebrating a milestone, looking for a meaningful gift, or treating yourself.

We also offer custom design, jewelry redesign, repairs, stone setting, engraving, appraisals, cleaning, ring sizing and watch services. Whether you’re caring for a treasured piece or creating something new, we’ll guide you through every step.

Whatever brings you in, you can expect a thoughtfully selected collection, experienced guidance, and the honesty and personal care the Saxon name is known for.
