Tilden Ross Jewelers — Local services in Sarasota

This was hands down the best jewelry experience of my life. My fiancé and I where at Lido key to watch the sunset. We where only here on vacation from Colorado for a week and we had very limited time. We got to the shops right as most where closing. So we where window shopping. The wonderful owners saw me pointing and showing my finances jewelry in the window and was kind enough to ask if she could answer any questions. I was looking for a very custom piece. A very small pearl pendant, which isn’t very common. I wanted one the color of the gulf of Mexico and something to always remind me of this one particular sunset. She and her husband pulled out a box of pearls and helped me create a one of a kind piece (after hours and way into the owners time to be able to have dinner with each other) just to make this artist smile. I would highly recommend them and also please check out the textile pillows. The owner is quite the artist. I’m proud to have a piece made out of love from a loving couple, married 40 years. It will forever be a lucky charm and sit proudly on my neck. Thank you so...

We went with my husband ( in that moment fiancé) to buy our wedding bands, the all experience was very painful!

After paying for the bride’s ring we saw a diamond missing in the ring ( the owner apparently didn’t know) about the missing diamond. The groom’s ring wasn’t available on his size, the owner ordered it online and told us that will be in the store next day( it wasn’t true) We had to visit the store in 4 different occasions (1 hour each way in taxis from we were staying as tourists) before we requested a refund. We got married wearing our friends wedding bands because the owner of the jewelry lied to us and didn’t have the rings ready as promised. He told us that his jeweler was on sick leave and couldn’t repair the missing diamond ( doesn’t he has other jewelers details for this kind of situations?) We requested a refund on the groom’s wedding ring and the refund was partially done, they kept part of the money but didn’t explained the reason why and we already left the country.

We’re visiting the Lido Beach area, as we frequently do, and were strolling around St. Armand’s Circle after breakfast. My wife was looking for a jewelry store, and I remembered Tilden Ross having some interesting pieces in their display. My wife took our young daughter in with her, and came out only a couple of minutes later, with an upset look on her face. Apparently, my wife asked the woman working behind the counter if she could show my wife some necklaces, and the woman began rattling off some prices, without ever having been asked. I may not be Jeff Bezos, but I’m a physician, and my wife has her own business, so I’m pretty sure we could’ve afforded most items in the store. Yet that saleswoman must have judged based on casual beach attire, and figured that we didn’t belong. Spare yourselves the snobbish attitude, as there are scores of other stores with much better...
