"Designing our custom engagement ring with Carl was a dream experience! Carl was able to seamlessly combine our desired design elements into the perfect ring at a fraction of the price of other options. He guided us through all of the steps of the design and manufacturing process, and made sure to check in with us throughout the development. We can’t wait to come back for our wedding bands." - Kyler G. (Google Reviews)

How Much Will My Jewelry Cost?

At C. Blackburn Jewelers, the price of custom jewelry will, of course, vary — largely depending on the type and size of the diamonds or colored gemstones that your piece is set with.

 

But you can be assured that Carl Blackburn will work precisely within the budget you have set, ensuring that your Pacific Beach custom jewelry remains affordable to you.

 

If you’re thinking that a custom engagement ring or fine jewelry is more expensive than buying pre-made jewelry from a showcase, this isn’t necessarily true!

 

We have delivered custom jewelry to Pacific Beach residents that was around the same price (and sometime even less) than the pre-made designer jewelry they had been considering.

 

While custom jewelry has higher initial design costs, these costs are offset by the lower prices that C. Blackburn Jewelers charges for diamonds and precious gemstones.

 

Prices can be even further reduced by choosing to set your item with a semi-precious gemstone like Morganite or a San Diego lab-grown diamond.

 

C. Blackburn Jewelers is owned and operated entirely by Carl Blackburn. He is able to keep the cost of operating his jewelry store low, while providing custom rings and jewelry at a much more affordable price.

Desigining an Engagement Ring

Carl Blackburn is known for making the engagement ring design process as memorable as the ring itself. The steps for making your custom ring are as follows:

 

1) Meet with Carl to discuss the making of your custom engagement ring. During the meeting, you are welcome to share photos of rings you like, as well as your own ideas.

 

Carl will provide his feedback and discuss with you a variety of options to turn your dream ring into a reality — always within the budget range you have set.

 

2) After a ring design has been agreed upon, Carl will create a 3D CAD illustration of your custom engagement ring.

 

3) Once the CAD drawing is approved, a resin model of your ring is made. This resin model can be worn by your Pacific Beach fiancée, so she can see how it looks and feels on her finger.

 

4) Your handcrafted dream ring is delivered and ready to be presented to the future bride. The entire process, from first meeting to delivered ring, is usually about 4 weeks.
