Established in 1810.
Founded by Isaac Marquand, Black, Starr & Frost originally opened as Marquand & Co. in New York City, making it the oldest continuously operating jewelry firm in the United States. At that time, two store clerks – William Black and Henry Ball – eventually joined the firm, which became Black, Ball & Company. In 1912, the company – by then named Black, Starr & Frost – moved to magnificent New York City offices at the southeast corner of Fifth Ave. and 48th St., known as the diamond district. Known for many firsts, America’s first jeweler is one of America’s oldest companies and was one of the initial companies to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The company’s fine jewelry, sterling silver, watches and clocks have been renowned for high quality and craftsmanship through the years. Currently headquartered in the Biltmore Shopping Center in Scottsdale, Ariz., Black, Starr & Frost was acquired in 2006 by the Molina Group.
