"Mark is a jeweler extraordinaire! If you want a delightful bespoke ring creation consultation and design, there's no one better in San Diego. Very low pressure and deeply knowledgeable educational experience, he designs the ring right in front of you, but do be warned, his charm and creative inspiration will have you putting down your card by the end of the visit out of pure excitement to bring your new ring into reality ASAP. We were even still a bit skeptical as we weren't sure his existing examples were "delicate" enough but now we bow down to his expertise in understanding exactly what we wanted or maybe more so what we NEEDED and we now own an 'heirloom level' two piece wedding band that simply steals the show. All for the price the Jared sales rep earns in just commission selling you an overpriced pre-made boring cookie-cutter band. You won't regret working with Mark!"

Great work, great guy
"I came here for my wife's wedding ring, and we couldn't have asked for a better jeweler. We had general ideas in mind (emeralds making a sort of flower petal shape, diamonds on the band, heart shapes you could see through, and a mirrored version for symmetry). Mark drew up several designs based on our descriptions, until we landed on something we really liked. He borrowed (and cleaned) the engagement ring to fit a handmade model of our design to it. Mark was able to make a couple rounds of edits to the model to really make it perfect. He gave us our official quote and asked for a pretty reasonable deposit as he needed to order a few more triangular emeralds. After a couple weeks, Mark showed us one ring of the set, and mentioned that the emeralds ordered were nicer than what he had on hand. So, he had gone ahead and ordered a few more of that quality to make sure it matched and didn't raise the quote despite the increase in production costs. He completed the set, and we are 100% satisfied. It's held up phenomenally over the past nine months, and my wife gets tons of compliments on it. If we ever wanted to create another piece of jewelry, we would definitely come back. Thanks Mark! "

"After 40 years of marriage I lost the Diamond in my wedding ring. Mark helped us choose a stunning Lab Grown Diamond and we were able to upgrade the size of my stone. Mark also designed a beautiful wave ring setting for the peridot birthstone from my Grandmother. Mark is a kind and helpful jeweler. "
