I went in looking for a rose gold wedding band. The jeweler was knowledgeable, gave me options and even cleaned my engagement ring. Ultimately, I selected a ring from a different store, but I would come back in a heartbeat for a bracelet or watch.

This is a fantastic jewelry store in the heart of downtown Sarasota convenient on Main Street. Their collection of estate jewelry is phenomenal. The entire store is a beautiful experience. I went in to get some advice on a citrine ring and was very pleased with their honest assessment. They really understand how to take care of you, whatever your jewelry needs are. I highly recommend them.

I took my Breitling here to have a band switched out from leather to stainless steel. They were very knowledgeable and took the time to explain some of my watch functions to me as I am new to this. The price was very reasonable and I will certainly return in the future.

Beautiful shop and selection, very kind and unpretentious staff. They serviced my wedding rings in one day and they truly look brand new! I will definitely return.
