History
My father originated Jack C Huntington Jewelry Repair and Photography in 1950 with my brother and I soon working for him. We began our journey as machine engravers and over time becoming bench jewelry repairmen, jewelry designers and fabricators, then for me on to gemological training at the Gemological Institute of America and appraisal certification with the American Society of Appraisers and the American Gem Society. My brother Ron apprenticing to my father and carrying on the family tradition as an expert in all forms of hand engraving. As part of our families business, Huntington Jewelers, I began appraising as a full time endeavor, and sectioned off Huntington Gem Lab within Huntington Jewelers to accomplish this. Upon selling Huntington Jewelers to Jenny O at the end of 2017 I moved Huntington Gem Lab to its current location and focus on Gems and Jewelry appraising and brokering estates and clients fine jewelry.
