Congress Jewelers

We are a third-generation family jewelers with roots in Elkhart Indiana and Peoria IL. We have been in SW FL since 1981 selling fine jewelry and gemstones. In 1981 after moving to Sanibel Island my parents created a copy righted line of shell jewelry where we molded shells from the beaches of Sanibel and Captiva, launching our “Sealife By Congress” jewelry line in 18K with diamonds, 14K and Sterling Silver…It has been popular for years as fond memories of vacations and the incredible detail on each piece has pleased even the most avid of shellers. Along with that we sell only natural diamonds and gemstones in the rarest of qualities for the most discerning of clients. A walk around our store will be a jewelry education of a lifetime. We are proud members of the American Gem society, only 1400 in North America and an annual test of our ongoing knowledge and continuing education in our industry. Also, our 17 employees are all trained by the GIA with most being with our family business for over 20 years! Some terrific lines we handle are Italian brands like Roberto Coin, Pasquale Brunei, Yvel, Norman Silverman Diamonds, Syna, Alor, plus our favorite Authentic Mel Fisher Atocha Shipwreck coins. Finally an endless selection of Estate jewelry by Cartier, Tiffany, David Webb, Harry Winston and BVGULRI. Endless list of gorgeous jewels for every occasion. Our service is second to none. We repair and restore anything in jewelry and timepieces, offer appraisals, insurance replacement, and we purchase as well.
