C. Blackburn Jewelers specializes in antique jewelry repair, vintage jewelry repair, and the restoration of any item of fine jewelry. There are many items of diamond estate jewelry (in particular antique jewelry) that can be tricky to repair. Close attention must be paid to the wear and tear of the entire piece of jewelry, not simply the area in which the repair is being made. The entire design of the piece must also be taken into account to ensure the repair or restoration is flawless.
Our jewelry repair services do not only include complicated repairs and antique jewelry restoration, we also handle the simplest jewelry repairs. This includes the resetting of a diamond in your engagement ring or the fixing of a clasp on a gold bracelet), all of which are offered at an affordable price.
Bring the jewelry you would like repaired to our La Jolla estate jewelry store. Owner Carl Blackburn will examine your piece personally, and discuss what needs to be done and the cost. In some cases, a jewelry repair or restoration project is impossible to execute to original perfection. In such instances, you can rely on Carl to be completely up front with you about the situation — and (if possible) he will offer you potential alternative ways to rework your fine jewelry.
C. Blackburn Jewelers finished restoring this antique diamond ring from the 1800's seen in the video above. We removed all of the grime and dirt that had accumulated behind the diamonds over the past 200 years, while also being careful to preserve that naturally perfect dark grey patina on the metal, which only decades (or centuries) of aging can create properly.
