A Note for Seminole Customers
Seminole is between the beaches and the mainland, and a lot of residents have jewelry they brought from up north or inherited from family. Some of it needs resizing for the Florida climate. Some needs appraising for insurance. We handle both with a GIA Graduate Gemologist on site.
Why Seminole Customers Come to Us
If you have inherited jewelry that needs appraising or resetting, the drive north on 19 gets you a GIA certified valuation and in-house bench work in one visit.

Family Jeweler Since Day One
Florida Diamond Center has been run by the Valdes family since it opened. Three generations in the jewelry trade, with more than thirty years of combined experience behind the counter and at the bench. Steve Valdes III is here today, same as his father and grandfather before him.
A GIA Graduate Gemologist grades every stone. In-house jewelers handle most of the repair work. The family works both sides of the trade, buying and selling, which keeps our pricing at wholesale rather than retail. That is how we have always done it.
