Rideshare
Set your drop-off to 607 South Hill Street. The gold canopy over the entrance is the easiest landmark to point a driver toward.
From the Sidewalk to Suite 452
The California Jewelry Mart is a large building with hundreds of jewelers inside, and the first visit can feel confusing. It doesn't need to be. Here is the exact route from the corner of 6th and Hill to our door — about five minutes, start to finish. Tap any photo to enlarge it.

Common Questions
Do I need an appointment?
No — walk-ins are welcome Monday through Saturday, 10:00am to 5:00pm. That said, appointments are recommended. Booking ahead means Johnny can set aside uninterrupted time to sit down with you, pull stones to compare side by side, and talk through options without a rush.
Is the building open to the public?
Yes. The California Jewelry Mart is open to the public during business hours. There's a brief security check-in at the lobby desk, which every visitor goes through, and then you're free to come up.
Where should I park?
Metered street parking is available on Hill Street and the surrounding downtown blocks, and several pay lots and garages operate within a short walk. If you'd rather skip driving altogether, the Metro B and D lines stop at Pershing Square, a few minutes north of us on Hill Street.
What if I get lost in the building?
Call us at (213) 626-6012 and we'll walk you in. The greeter at the entrance and the lobby security desk can also point you toward Suite 452 on the fourth floor.
What happens on a first visit?
A conversation, not a sales pitch. Johnny starts by listening — what you're looking for, what the occasion is, and what matters most to you. From there he'll explain diamond quality and your options in plain language and give you honest pricing. There is never pressure to decide on the spot.
Can I bring in a piece for repair or appraisal?
Absolutely. Bring it by during business hours and Johnny will take a look with you. See our repairs and appraisals page for what we handle.
