Our Four C's of Diamonds guide can help you decide on the most important factors when shopping for a diamond. The word carat derives from the word carob, a Mediterranean seed, which has an extremely consistent weight for measuring. The greater the carat weight, the rarer, and more valuable the diamond becomes.

Tried to get a small Anna Maria island earring made over a month prior to Christmas. They said it wouldn't be done by then so I waited patiently checking up every other week on progress. Every time I called they said they would let me know soon. It's now May and after going to the store twice to follow up and multiple calls I'm taking my business to Jess. Way better customer service and price for similar pieces.

Dishonest practices. Kept broken gold pieces after stating they would return them. Charged quite a bit more (50%) than my regular jeweler. Argued about facts, contradicting herself. I hate leaving bad reviews but I hate dishonest customer service from a local business. Never going back & will discourage anyone else from going to Wares.

I rarely leave Google reviews, but the service my wife and I received at Ware's certainly calls for one. They were the very first business I stopped by to look for my wife's (then fiance) engagement ring. Out of their plentiful selection, I found exactly what I was looking for. Fast forward several months, we decide to tie the knot before our big ceremony so I called in to find the matching wedding band to her engagement ring.
Within a day, they had it resized and ready for us. To top it off, they even performed a very nice, very intimate wedding ceremony and married us. From start to finish, Ware's had our backs. They made it very easy and extremely memorable for us. We would highly recommend their services.

I have had several pieces of jewelry repaired and restored by Bob and his lovely wife. They are extremely kind, patient, and caring individuals. Their workmanship, knowledge, and professionalism is outstanding! Their attention to detail is extraordinary! I am forever grateful for the beautiful restorations. We are fortunate that their family-owned business is located in Bradenton. I highly recommend them.

Very great job on sizing my wedding band and engagement rings. They looked amazing when I picked them up. The women are so nice and kind. Great service and was done in the time they said it would be ready. Would definitely recommend them to anyone. They have also taken links out of my watch before this and I had the same great service then as well.

My husband took my daughters ring to be fixed as the band had broken. He came home raving about how great they were. Stated this family owned business was friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. When we got it back it was lovely! They did a great job at a very reasonable price. My husband never goes on and on about a business so this is a big deal.

My wedding band had to be cut off for a medical procedure & my wife's ring was missing one diamond. I took both to Ware's & was immediately taken by the kindness and attentiveness the staff. This was only two weeks before Christmas and I wanted to have both repaired & wrapped as a surprise X-Mas gift. Not only were they able to beat the deadline, but I don't recall these rings looking this brilliant when we first bought them nearly 30 years ago! Many thanks, and I hope this note will impress potential clients. Ed W

Really nice and friendly workers. Beautiful collection of jewelry. Had my necklace repaired through their send out service. Picked up and wore it out store. Not even an hour later, walking through the grocery store and I felt it slip off my neck. Broke again. Took back to the jeweler and was repaired for free. They have a warranty on their repairs. I had no idea! Great family owned business that's been around for years. I will take all my repairs to Wares.

Great prices for getting repairs. I had the latch on my necklace repaired. Very friendly people and give good advice on what you should do. They also have a good selection of different types of jewelry. You can also do financing if you'd like when buying from them. I will be sure to keep coming back for anything I need done.

The owners are wonderful, very friendly, and knowledgable. I had a ring sized and it was far less expensive than I had anticipated. The job was done quickly and my ring came out shinier than I have ever seen it. Thanks so much for the great experience and I will definitely be back in the future. I highly recommend!
