Object Story |
By 1973, Mayhew had been working as a jeweler for over 50 years, with nearly 45 years spent at the same location on Main Street in Napanee. He learned the craft from his father and grandfather, who were also both jewelers, with stores in Colborne. Mayhew's son John also operated a jewellery store, in Kingston. |
