Richard was born in 1948 in Cwmparc in the Rhondda valley, and spent most of his childhood in Devon and Cornwall. In 1970, after graduating in Social Anthropology from the London School of Economics, he returned to Wales with his wife Lynne, settling in Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire. There he began a career as an antiques dealer specializing in Welsh furniture.

His fine collection is displayed in the appropriate setting of the Old Castle Mill, Kidwelly in Carmarthenshire, West Wales, and covers a wide range of items representing the whole spectrum of dressers, tables, longcase clocks, chests, coffers, cupboards and seating, which was produced in the various parts of Wales.
