What it is

Johnson Brothers Lapidary is a first-party lapidary equipment and abrasives supplier in Orange, California. The official storefront sells diamond wheels, saw blades, abrasive belts, lapping discs, polishing pads, loose abrasives, carving burs, and machines, and states that most of it is made in their own plant under the JBFC line. Product pages cover notched-rim diamond blades sized for trim and slab saws and nickel-bond hard diamond wheels for grinding. The shop also carries branded collections (including Covington, Diamond Pacific, JoolTool and Gryphon) and a large jewelry-display catalog. It is not a membership gem club and not a teaching school.

Who it’s for

Cabochon cutters, glass workers and shop owners who want first-party JBFC diamond blades and wheels by mail order or from the Orange street address, including replacements sized for common trim and slab saws.
