Custom goldsmith since 1978, Gilmore Family Jewelers in Point Loma's Liberty Station merges wax carving, hand construction, and computer-generated modeling into a single design pipeline. That triple-technique approach produces engagement rings, anniversary bands, and heirloom restyling with the same bridal-focused precision that A Robert Cromeans Salon brings to wedding-day hair and finish work. The studio sources diamonds and colored gemstones through vendor relationships stretching back to the original 1978 Ocean Beach storefront, prioritizing ethically and responsibly sourced stones. Wedding band commissions begin with a private design consultation where couples choose metal, stone layout, and finish before a wax model or digital render is produced for approval — a step-by-step bridal timeline that runs in parallel with the custom ceremony arrangements at Little House of Flowers. The most complex projects involve multi-stone custom engagement rings with hand-fabricated basket settings, CAD-modeled side galleries, and matched band sets finished entirely at the Barracks 15 bench.
