In an age of national banks, chain restaurants, and big-box retailers, Orange County's jewelry scene remains stubbornly local. Although some old favorites like Galt's are gone, many of Orange County's most respected jewelers are family-owned shops. Many of the owners have gems in their blood: Their fathers or grandfathers taught them the business. It helps that these stores aren't fly-by-night, because the key to buying jewelry is finding someone you trust. The jewelers listed below, from our research of the Orange Country independent jewelry stores, have been providing some of the best service and product selection to the local communities they serve for decates. They are solid competitors to the online stores and in fact you will not find the majority of the products found in these stores online. And of course the service will not be even close.

They specialize in making engagement rings and fine jewelry that are handcrafted with no less than colorless and eye clean diamonds. It is Trans Baca’s first priority to make diamond buying an enjoyable experience for all customers.
In the summer of 1900, jeweler Arthur William Ballard moved his family from the plains of Omaha to the growing city of Los Angeles, where he opened a small retail shop. Setting up in what would become the Jewelry District of downtown Los Angeles, Ballard and Ballard became Southern California trailblazers. In 1997, they realized the Jewelry District in downtown Los Angeles had gone downhill in relation to overall quality and reliable integrity. Wanting to do better for their customers in a safer environment, the Ballard brothers chose to make a historic move to Orange County. Today, Ballard and Ballard’s super showroom is located on Brookhurst Street in the City of Fountain Valley. The Ballard brothers have become known by their clients as the Mayors of the Jewelry District in Fountain Valley and Huntington Beach.
