AN ORIGINAL JEWEL
Blackman Ltd. Jewelers in the Lido Marina Village in Newport Beach has much to celebrate; this year marks its 50th anniversary. To celebrate, Blackman is offering special promotions and trunk shows, as well as a Valentine's Day sale with great deals. Perhaps best of all, customers can still enjoy personal service by orginal owners Bruce and Patricia Blackman.
On any given day you can watch Bruce meticulously restore a Rolex, clean an antique clock, make custom jewelry, or engage in the art of goldsmithing.
Blackman Ltd. Jewelers isn’t just a traditional jewelry store. It’s one of the few jewelry stores that offers hand-engraving on the premises; and it’s an authorized service department for Rolex.
The store specializes in fine jewelry, both conservative and contemporary designs along with expert repairs on jewelry, watches and grandfather clocks.
Blackman’s gift section includes classic collectible such as Baccarat crystal, Royal Copenhagen porcelains, Limoges boxes from Rochard and Chamart, Georg Jensen silver and Chelsea clocks. Local artist Brian Arthur’s bronze pelicans and dolphins are a perennial favorite as well as fine art glass from Orient & Flume.
Honesty, fair prices, and attention to details are standards at Blackman’s.
Open Tuesday through Friday 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.; 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday. 3408-1 Via Oporto, 949.673.9334.
“...the best website in America for fashionistas and foodies!”
