26 Feb Recreate a Lost Ring or Fine Jewelry in San Diego
At C. Blackburn Jewelers in La Jolla, we understand the heartache of losing a cherished piece of jewelry — whether it’s an engagement ring slipped off during a beach day in San Diego, a wedding band stolen during a trip, or a family heirloom that’s simply vanished over time.
These pieces aren’t just objects; they’re symbols of love, commitment, and history. That’s why we offer a fine jewelry and ring recreation service, designed to bring your beloved treasures back to life with the care and craftsmanship you’d expect from a trusted local jeweler.
Turning Memories into Masterpieces
Located in La Jolla Cove, C. Blackburn Jewelers has been serving the San Diego community with custom jewelry solutions for years. Our reproduction service is all about giving you a second chance to wear your story.
Whether you’ve lost an engagement ring that marked the start of your forever, a wedding band that’s seen decades of milestones, or an heirloom necklace passed down through generations, we’re here to help you recreate it — often making it even more special than before.

Reproduction: How Does it Work?
It’s simple and stress-free. Start by sharing whatever you remember about your lost piece — photos, sketches, or even just a vivid description of what it looked like and meant to you. Maybe you have an old snapshot from your wedding day showing that ring, a photo that your jewelry insurance provider has on file, or simply a vivid memory of what your item looked like.
Our owner, Carl Blackburn, will sit down with you, listen to your story, and guide you through the process of bringing it back. Using state-of-the-art design techniques and hands-on artistry, we’ll craft a replica that captures the spirit of the original — or, if you’d like, a fresh take that honors its legacy while fitting your style today.
Why Choose C. Blackburn Jewelers?
What sets us apart is our commitment to you, our San Diego neighbors. We know losing jewelry can feel like losing a piece of yourself, and we’re here to make the recreation process as seamless and meaningful as possible. Here’s what you can expect when you work with us:
Personalized Care: We begin with a one-on-one consultation at our La Jolla jewelry store, where we’ll explore every detail you can recall. No photo? No problem — we’ll work from your memory or even help you redesign something new inspired by the past.
Expert Craftsmanship: Our skilled artisans use a blend of traditional techniques and modern technology, like CAD design, to ensure your recreated piece is as close to the original as possible — or beautifully reimagined, if that’s your preference.
Flexible Options: Want to recreate your engagement ring exactly as it was? We can do that. Thinking of adding a new gemstone or tweaking the design for a modern twist? We’ll make it happen. We can even collaborate with your insurance company if your lost piece was covered.
Local Trust: As a well-known La Jolla custom jeweler, we’re dedicated to serving San Diego with integrity and warmth. You’re not just a customer — you’re part of our community.
Real Stories, Real Results

More Than a Replacement — A New Beginning
At C. Blackburn Jewelers, we believe that recreating a lost ring or piece of jewelry isn’t just about replacement; it’s about renewal. Maybe your lost wedding band deserves an upgrade with a new gemstone to celebrate years of marriage. Or perhaps that stolen heirloom ring could become a pendant necklace you’ll pass down to the next generation. Whatever your vision, we’ll bring it to life with close attention to every detail.
