John Baxter of Baxter's Jewellers has over 40 years in experience in the jewellery trade having started his career as a junior in H & B Gaw's of Irvine then attended a Retail Jewellers course at Glasgow College of Commerce. John managed his own retail shop in Saltcoats (birthplace of Betsy Miller Betsy Miller Britain's first woman ships captain), Ayrshire for 25 years.

Baxter's offer quality Scottish gifts such as Caithness Glass, Sterling Silver and Pewter Quaichs; these were some of the original lines stocked and after 33 years are still popular today.
