Jeweler Services
Work one-on-one with Carl to create a custom diamond engagement ring that will be cherished for generations. Shop from Carl Blackburn's hand-selected showcase of beautiful vintage-inspired diamond engagement rings.
Use Carl's "diamond locator" service to help you buy a large diamond at a price lower than you can find at a large online diamond retailer or at a typical San Diego jewelry store. If he can't find you that perfect diamond, you pay nothing.​
Let Carl draw on his deep knowledge of vintage and antique jewelry to create for you a custom fine jewelry that is destined to become a beloved family heirloom. We specialize in creating bridal sets, and fine jewelry to celebrate life's milestones.
As one of San Diego County's most well-known and trusted estate jewelry buyers, Carl can be counted on to give you a best cash price. Visit us to sell a diamond ring, sell gold jewelry, and sell vintage and antique jewelry, including necklaces, bracelets, and earings.
Carl has bought and sold hundreds of used Rolex watch over the past decade, including Submariners, Daytonas, GMTs, Yachtmasters, and more. He will accurately asses the value of your Rolex watch (or other luxury timepiece), and then pay you cash on the spot.
Carl has been a prominent San Diego jewelry buyer for more than 15 years, serving customers in San Diego County and nationwide. Read a few client testimonials and watch Carl's 2010 interview with KUSI TV, which highlighted his local reputation.
If you have large carat diamonds, luxury timepieces, or a valuable fine jewelry collection that requires a formal jewelry appraisal as part of an estate valuation, Carl Blackburn offers fast and accurate "Fair Market" jewelry appraisals.
Do you have a vintage or antique piece of jewelry that needs to be repaired? Carl can help you restore that item to its once cherished condition. We can also do minor jewelry repairs, such as the resetting of a loose diamond in your engagement ring.
It's safe to say that if Carl can't find the antique jewelry you're looking for, nobody can. He buys and sells antique jewelry on a daily basis, and has a wide network of friends who own and operate estate jewelry stores nationwide​
