Our Jewelry Services

Mesa Jeweler
Estate & Fine Jewelry Collection

Nelson Estate Jewelers has served Mesa and the East Valley since 2017, carrying rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and watches at 40 to 60% below traditional retail pricing.

That gap exists because Nelson operates without mall-level rent, large advertising budgets, or franchise overhead.

Many pieces in the collection are crafted in-house from diamonds and gold purchased directly from sellers, cutting out the wholesale middleman entirely.

The store also offers consignment for customers who prefer to wait for the right buyer.

Stop in at 1862 W. Baseline Road, Suite 101, Tuesday through Saturday for a no-pressure look.

Diamond Dealer
Loose Diamonds & Engagement Stones

Nelson Estate Jewelers carries certified loose diamonds evaluated for cut, clarity, color, and carat weight, available for engagement rings, stud earrings, and custom pieces.

Every stone in stock can be inspected in person at the Mesa showroom, and the team walks buyers through grading details so they understand exactly what they’re purchasing.

If a specific size or grade isn’t in stock, Nelson sources additional stones through its dealer network.

Pricing runs well below chain retail because many diamonds are acquired directly from estate sellers.

Walk in or call (480) 459-9867 to schedule a diamond consultation.

Custom Jewelry Designer in Mesa, AZ

Nelson Estate Jewelers builds custom pieces through a four-step process: free consultation with David Nelson, hand sketching from every angle, 3D CAD rendering for final approval, and then fabrication by their in-house team.

Customers can bring existing stones, repurpose inherited jewelry, or start from scratch with new materials.

The shop designs engagement rings, anniversary bands, memorial pieces, and one-of-a-kind gifts.

Because Nelson buys gold and diamonds directly from sellers, custom work often costs significantly less than a chain jeweler’s quotes.

Goldsmith Services in Mesa

Nelson Estate Jewelers operates a full goldsmith workshop on-site in Mesa, crafting new pieces from raw gold, reworking inherited jewelry into updated designs, and fabricating custom settings for diamonds and gemstones.

Because the shop buys gold directly from sellers, it sources materials locally rather than through wholesale markup chains.

Services include gold melting and refining, custom fabrication, restyling old pieces into modern designs, and hand-finishing.

This is the same in-house team behind Nelson’s custom design and repair work.

Jewelry Engraving Services in Mesa

Nelson Estate Jewelers uses a professional-grade laser engraving system to produce precise work on rings, watches, bracelets, pendants, and gifts.

Laser engraving handles fine detail that traditional rotary methods can’t match, including script fonts, custom graphics, and small-surface work without risk of damage to the piece.

Common requests include wedding date inscriptions, name engravings, memorial dedications, and graduation gifts.

The laser works on gold, silver, platinum, and stainless steel.

Jewelry Buyer
Sell Your Jewelry for Cash in Mesa

Nelson Estate Jewelers pays cash on the spot for jewelry you no longer wear, including inherited pieces, broken items, vintage and designer collections, fine watches, and pieces made from gold, silver, platinum, or palladium.

Nelson typically pays more than standard gold buyers because the shop has retail outlets for resalable pieces rather than scrapping everything for melt value.

You don’t need to make an appointment, and you don’t have to sell after the evaluation.

Bring your pieces into the Mesa showroom at 1862 W. Baseline Road, Tuesday through Saturday or call (480) 459-9867 with questions before your visit.

Each stone is evaluated in-house using professional grading standards for cut, clarity, color, and carat weight, and David walks sellers through the evaluation so they understand exactly how the offer is calculated.

Frequently Asked Questions About Nelson Estate Jewelers

Nelson Estate Jewelers buys gold in all forms (scrap, dental, industrial, bars, chains, and jewelry), sterling silver including flatware and tea sets, platinum, palladium, loose and mounted diamonds with premiums on stones 1 carat and above, fine watches, designer jewelry, period pieces, gemstones, coins, bullion, U.S. paper money, militaria, antique guns, select pre-WW2 stamps, and art glass.

Gold pricing is based on the current market spot rate at the time of your visit. Our team tests each piece on-site to verify metal purity and weight, then calculates an offer based on the day’s spot price. Because Nelson has retail outlets for resalable pieces, we typically pay more than standard gold buyers who only offer scrap melt value. You see exactly how the offer is calculated, and there is no obligation to sell. Walk in Tuesday through Saturday at 1862 W. Baseline Road in Mesa or call (480) 459-9867.

Three factors drive the pricing gap. Nelson operates from a standalone Mesa storefront with lower rent than mall locations. The shop runs minimal advertising overhead compared to national chains. And there is no franchise structure adding markup to cover corporate profit layers. Many pieces in the collection are also crafted in-house from diamonds and gold purchased directly from sellers, which cuts out the wholesale middleman. The result is estate and new jewelry priced well below what the same quality piece would cost at a chain jeweler in Chandler, Scottsdale, or the Phoenix area malls.

No. Nelson Estate Jewelers welcomes walk-ins for all services during business hours: Tuesday through Friday 10am to 6pm, Saturday 10am to 5pm. Whether you are bringing in a piece for repair, selling gold or diamonds, getting jewelry engraved, or browsing the collection, you can walk in without an appointment. For larger projects like bridal party engraving sets or custom design consultations, calling ahead at (480) 459-9867 helps us set aside the right amount of time for your visit.

The shop handles ring resizing, prong retipping, stone replacement, chain soldering, clasp repair, pearl restringing (knotted and unknotted), head replacement, earring repair, bracelet repair, rhodium plating, satin finishing, and both basic and advanced platinum welding. Nelson also uses laser welding technology for precision work on delicate and antique pieces. Complimentary walk-in cleaning and inspection are available with no appointment needed, including a full stone and setting check with repair recommendations. Pieces are accepted regardless of where they were originally purchased.

Yes. Nelson Estate Jewelers builds custom pieces from customer-supplied materials, including inherited jewelry, old rings, loose stones, and raw gold. The custom design process starts with a free consultation with David Nelson, moves to hand sketching, then 3D CAD rendering for your approval, and finishes with fabrication by the in-house team. Customers also have the option to start from scratch with new materials from the shop’s inventory. Because Nelson sources gold and diamonds directly from sellers, custom work typically costs significantly less than quotes from chain jewelers in the Mesa and East Valley area.

Nelson Estate Jewelers is located at 1862 W. Baseline Road, Suite 101, Mesa, AZ 85202 and serves customers from across the East Valley and greater Phoenix metro area. Regular customers come from Mesa, Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale, Apache Junction, Queen Creek, Gold Canyon, and Fountain Hills. The shop is centrally located with easy access from the US-60 and Loop 101, making it a short drive from most East Valley neighborhoods. All services including buying, selling, repair, custom design, engraving, and appraisals are handled on-site at the Mesa location.

Nelson Estate Jewelers opened its Mesa showroom in 2017 and has been serving the East Valley for nine years. Owner David Nelson brings over 25 years of personal experience in the jewelry industry, covering estate acquisitions, diamond grading, custom fabrication, goldsmithing, and laser engraving. The shop has been voted Best of Mesa by the West Valley Tribune multiple years running and has received the Torch Award for Ethics from the Better Business Bureau.

Pawn shops and mail-in gold buyers typically offer scrap melt value for everything that comes through the door, regardless of craftsmanship, brand, or resale potential. Nelson Estate Jewelers evaluates each piece for its full market value. Rings, watches, and designer pieces that can be cleaned, repaired, or reconditioned are worth more than their raw metal weight, and Nelson pays accordingly because the shop has retail outlets for those pieces. Sellers also get a transparent, in-person evaluation where David walks through exactly how the offer was calculated. No guesswork, no pressure, and no shipping your valuables to a stranger.

Yes. Nelson Estate Jewelers provides professional jewelry appraisals for insurance documentation, estate settlement, resale evaluation, and personal knowledge. Each piece is examined and graded on-site by experienced staff. Appraisals cover diamonds, gemstones, precious metals, designer pieces, and period jewelry. Whether you need a current replacement value for your insurance company or want to understand what an inherited collection is worth before deciding to keep or sell, the team can help. Call (480) 459-9867 or walk into the Mesa showroom to discuss your appraisal needs.
