Creating Your Engagement Ring
Most Carlsbad couples work closely together with Carl Blackburn in the creation of their custom engagement ring. Carl strives to make this ring design experience as memorable as the ring itself.
From your first meeting with Carl, you’ll understand why so many San Diego couples have chosen him as their bridal jewelry designer. Warm, friendly, and attentive to every concern, Carl makes the creation of your custom engagement ring fun, fascinating, and rewarding.
The ring design process starts by Carl listening to all of your ideas, looking at photos of any rings you may have saved to your phone, and asking all the right questions to make sure he has a clear understanding of your dream ring.
If you are unsure of the design, Carl will provide you with different ring styles (both modern and classic) to spark your imagination. He’ll also explain various handcrafting options like engraving, milgraining, and filigree.
After that he’ll create a 3D CAD illustration of your ring, followed by the making of a resin model that she can wear on her finger to see how it looks and feels.
The entire process from first meeting to the delivery of your Carlsbad engagement ring usually is about four weeks. Get started now by scheduling your first appointment.
Carlsbad Engagement Ring Prices
Carl Blackburn works closely with every Carlsbad couple to create the most beautiful custom ring within the budget discussed during your first meeting. In fact, Carl often is able to create your dream engagement ring under the budget you had set.
C. Blackburn Jewelers is a small boutique jewelry store in La Jolla By the Sea. It is run entirely by Carl himself, with no other in-store staff. He therefore is able to work with much less business overhead and make his custom jewelry more affordable.
As a 2nd generation jeweler with direct access to diamond and precious gem wholesalers around the world, Carl is able to acquire the finest diamond and colored gemstones at the best prices possible.
Carlsbad couples on tighter budgets can design a custom engagement ring by having Carl set their ring with a lab-grown diamond (physically identical to a natural diamond) or a semi-precious stone like aquamarine or morganite.
