About Tampa Bay Jewelry Co.
A local jeweler for Tampa Bay, with the bench on site.
Tampa Bay Jewelry Co. is a local jewelry service for customers across Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties. When you call or send a request, it goes to an insured Tampa jeweler with a working bench, who meets with you, quotes the work in writing and does it on site.
How we work
A written quote first
Repairs, sizing and custom work are quoted before anything starts, and the quote is what you pay unless you change the job.
Your piece stays in Tampa
Work is done at the bench on site. If something has to go to a specialist, you hear about it first.
Plain explanations
What the metal is, what the stone is, what a repair will and won't fix, and what a piece is worth to sell versus to insure.
Logged in, checked out
Pieces left for work or appraisal are photographed and described on the intake ticket, and inspected with you under magnification at pickup.
Licensing and registration
Jewelry work is performed on site by an insured Tampa jeweler. Florida does not license jewelers, but it does regulate businesses that buy precious metals and secondhand goods from the public. Purchases are recorded and reported as Florida law requires, and sellers need a government-issued photo ID. Appraisals are written documents you can give to an insurer, an attorney or a buyer.
