Bowman Originals 124 South Pineapple Avenue, Sarasota, FL 34236

"This place is incredible. I am a very picky New Englander and like a very specific type of chunky sterling silver jewelry (without compromising on quality). Let me tell you that Bowman Originals does not disappoint. I am blown away by the craftsmanship, and the owners (Ned and Rowan) are the loveliest duo - you can tell they pour their heart into their jewelry/art. Very, VERY pleased. Edit: I have now purchased three pieces from Bowman Originals, working with Ned over the last few months to customize at least 2/3 of them. I can honestly say I have never worked with an artist (a jeweler, specifically) that has gone to such great lengths to ensure I am satisfied and get exactly what I want - no matter how picky. I will definitely be working with the Bowman team in the future!!"

"The Bowman Originals team took on a variety of projects for my family and I and displayed the highest level of customer service and attentiveness to our needs. These efforts were only superseded by the craftsmanship of the pieces themselves. Simply experts in all things jewelry, you’d be silly to go elsewhere in Sarasota."

"Absolutely the best designers, gold/silversmiths around. They are also lovely people. I highly recommend Bowman originals to all of you out there who appreciate handmade, quality pieces of art."

"The craftsmanship that goes into each piece of jewelry in this store is apparent. If you're looking for a handmade piece of art to express yourself or to give to someone special you've found the right place."

"Great jewelers with an even better attitude! They specialize in all handmade, craftsmen jewelry that they make onsite at their downtown showroom. They also do amazing original design work, last time I was there I saw the coolest bracelet design with owl designs set inside of a dripping metal framework. The variety they have is amazing!"
