Sink Jewelers

In 1951, after apprenticing under Fritz Martin in Greenville, Ohio for 4 years, Robert Sink decided to make the move to Arcanum and start his own store. He had one other employee. The original shop was on East George Street just across the street from Troutwine Auto Sales about the spot where Leroy’s Barber Shop was for years.

In 1954, he had decided he needed more space and moved the store to its current location at 11 West George Street, Arcanum, Ohio. Robert believed in offering good quality merchandise for a fair price and being able to provide timely service for your repair needs. Robert would be involved in the business until 2002 when the affects of Parkinson’s disease forced him to retire. He would pass away 2 years later in May of 2004.
