elcome to the world of Weber Goldsmith Gallery, conveniently located at The Crossroads in Carmel at Highway 1 and Rio Road. Weber’s has long been known for the custom designs of owner Bradley D. Weber, as well as being the home of many other top designers and jewelry houses. In keeping with Brad’s clean, contemporary design lines, the gallery showcases a myriad of jewelry styles in their spacious location.

Brad began his jewelry journey in Maui, Hawaii.

He had an ideal location in Wailea which brought in many long term customers from all over the globe.

After 16 years, Brad received an offer from The Pebble Beach Company to open a new store at The Lodge in Pebble Beach. His customers followed him and after 10 years at The Lodge, it was time to enlarge the store and re-locate one last time. The combining of two locations at The Crossroads, created the new home of

Weber Goldsmith Gallery. Weber’s now includes all their former globe-trotting clients as well as the intimate local community. Brad is currently celebrating his 5th year at The Crossroads.

“It is the perfect situation for local customers, as well as our loyal clients that visit from around the world,” says owner Brad Weber.

Free flowing and innovative designs are the hallmark for his work and his creations suit the palates of many. After 30 years in the business Brad has created a collection of work which has resulted in four International Spectrum Awards as well as multiple state design competitions. His award winning ring Neptune’s Birth, was selected and featured by the Gemological Institute of America as the piece to represent 2007, The Year of the Pearl. It is on permanent display at the GIA Museum. In addition, Brad has recently had the honor of being prominently featured in the 2013 Edition of GIA’s book, The Splendour and Science of Pearls.

While the Weber name is the main draw for most, the store also features a large selection of jewelry including Spark, Pascal LaCroix and Hidalgo. Brad also specializes in large Fancy Colored Diamonds and high quality loose gemstones.

A recent addition to Weber Goldsmith Gallery is implementation of CAD-CAM design to the design process. These images help aid in the visualization of Brad’s custom creations. Please see the 2 images of the Pink Sapphire ring on this page for an example of the CAD-CAM design results.

Brad Weber is a hand’s on owner/designer and is in the store on weekdays and on weekends by appointment. Diverse selection, custom creations and a knowledgeable staff assures one of a memorable experience at Weber Goldsmith Gallery.

MISSION CARMEL MISSION

Carmel Mission, Mission San Carlos Borromeo Del Rio Carmelo, sits behind adobe walls in a quiet area of Carmel.

Carmel Mission is considered one of the most beautiful missions in the chain of nine stretching along California’s Central Coast. A self-guided tour of the Mission can be taken, where you will see two separate museums, a replica of the Mission’s kitchen and library, and a re-creation of Father Serra’s ascetic “cell.” At the foot of the main altar lies the final resting place of the founder of the California Missions, Padre Junipero Serra, who died in 1784 at the age of 71. Self guided tours of the Carmel Mission are available as well as a mandatory visit to the Mission Museum gift shop. The Carmel Mission is located at 3080 Rio Road, Carmel, CA.

Carmel-by-the-Sea Carmel—a community rich in the history and traditions of early California here are few places on earth as incredibly dynamic, yet so quaint and picturesque as Carmel-by-the-Sea. Situated on the Bay of Carmel in this world-renowned scenic environment, visitors can immerse themselves in the incredible beauty and mesmerizing charm of Carmel’s unique brand of enchantment. Nestled in a pine forest above a spectacular white-sand beach, the one-square-mile village of Carmel offers endless vacation and cultural opportunities within an ecologically harmonious setting.

Carmel is a community rich in the history and traditions of early California. Carmel’s Bohemian founders fought to maintain the outdoor mystique and small-town appeal and their efforts are still evident today. The residential district has no sidewalks or street lights, and the beach is unadulterated by commercial development. Homes are known only by name and have no street addresses.

Diverse sights and activities await visitors to Carmel who can easily set their own pace taking life as energetically or as leisurely as they desire.

Within the village, visitors can relax, unwind and

enjoy the peaceful, European ambience where they are free to stroll through winding streets and explore secluded courtyards and arcades.

Highlighted by over 90 art studios and galleries, numerous antique shops, hundreds of boutiques and small intimate cafes and restaurants, Carmel promises hours of discovery.

HELP A MONARCH If you find a Monarch butterfly washed up on the shore after a storm it may still be alive. Lift it out of the damp sand and put it on your sweater, allowing it to dry off. A water color brush is useful for removing sand from its wings.

When dry, it will take flight.

eautiful Monterey—a city rich with history, natural beauty and attractions. Monterey offers a wealth of things to see and do: Fisherman’s Wharf, Cannery Row, the Monterey Bay Aquarium, historic adobes, city parks, walking trails and, of course, lots of shopping opportunities.

Home to explorers, traders, military and religious leaders and fishermen of all nationalities, Monterey boasts a rich and diverse history. You can learn much about Monterey’s colorful past by visiting the historic museums in Colton Hall, the Pacific House and the new Maritime Museum. Journey back in time to 19th century Monterey by taking a walking tour of Sea Otters the many historic adobes and buildings (see Monterey Map). Guided tours are available in Larkin House, Stevenson House, Casa Soberanes and Cooper -Molera. Self-guided tours are available in the Pacific House, the Custom House, Colton Hall and many of Monterey’s other historic sites.

The Monterey Bay harbor provides many more things to do and see: Scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, whale watching tours, boating, tidepooling, diving, beachcombing or sunbathing. Enjoy the restaurants and shops at Fisherman’s Wharf. Visit the Coast Guard Pier and talk with the sea lions and sea otters. Walk the Recreation Trail to enjoy Monterey’s stunning view of the Pacific Ocean.

Shopping in Monterey is always a delight. Known for its shops, boutiques and specialty stores, Monterey maintains a tradition of quality at reasonable prices. You can shop downtown, on the Wharf or on Cannery Row and find bargains and delightful treasures everywhere.

Take the kids to “Dennis The Menace Park,” which was designed by the cartoonist, Hank Ketchum. This city-owned park is surrounded by El Estero Lake, and is a great place to take the kids. There is no Colton Hall admission charge. The park boasts swings, slides and a myriad of creative things to do to keep your children busy and happy for hours.

You can rent a paddle-wheel boat and just “cruise the water” if that’s your pleasure.

way and a depot, which opened in 1872. That was the year Salinas City became the Monterey County seat. Two years later it was incorporated as a charter city.

As agricultural enterprise in the Salinas Valley moved from hides and tallow to grains, sugar beets and beans, and after World War I, to the “green gold” of lettuce, artichokes and broccoli, Salinas became one of the wealthiest cities per capita in the United States.

The Boronda Adobe History Center, located in Salinas, is the headquarters of the Monterey County Historical Society. In addition to the oldest standing adobe in the Salinas Valley, a Queen Anne style house designed by area architect William H. Weeks and the Lagunita School that Steinbeck wrote about in his story “The Red Pony” are located on the property.

Today Our comfortable climate, abundant natural resources and diverse population provide a solid economic and cultural environment that is becoming increasingly popular with tourists. The Salinas Valley is the focus of a number of unique attractions, annual events and historical landmarks. Each year, the California Rodeo Salinas ranks in the top 20 of nearly 800 North American rodeos sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. Oldtown Salinas, located in the city’s center, is composed of beautifully designed buildings constructed in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s.

OLD FISHERMAN’S WHARF Old Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey was built in 1846 for the many trading vessels bringing goods from around Cape Horn. Today visitors seek out a bit of history and the finest fresh seafood meals served anywhere. While the focus may have changed, the wharf is still a working wharf. One of the many ways the old blends with the new is with whale watching and fishing trips. Visitors can enjoy a sightseeing cruise to view migrating whales or a fishing trip to bring back a limit of fish.
