While our cruise ship was docked at Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, we shopped at this jeweler as we have done several times in previous visits. Once again, we found an item (diamond ring) which appealed to my wife and purchased it for a very good price. We have always been very satisfied with our purchases and, when returning to our... More

I purchased a pair of tanzanite and diamond earrings here. I found a pair I liked but would have liked them to come down another $25. I walked away and went to lots of other stores but no one else had a pair as pretty as these and all other stores were higher in price. So I returned and while... More

I have been to many jewelry stores in the Caribbean. This is the only one where when I said I wanted to look first, they gave me space and allowed me to take my time without adding any pressure. Service when I wanted it was quick and friendly. Jewelry was properly boxed. And there was no attempt at any kind... More

We have bought from Cardow before and had good experiences, so we went back to them in an attempt to find the gemstone Alexandrite. The in-store experience was great and we brought it back to the states to get it re-sized. When we took it into a jeweler here they told us that it looked synthetic and as a result... More

Quality jewelry, great selection - all price points. They don't push you into something (like the place that sells the Hearts On Fire diamonds in the room in the rear of the store). They set you up with a certificate of how much the piece is appraised at, they'll give you refreshments (beer, water), they'll even work with you once... More

We stopped off in St. Thomas last year on a cruise. I had done some research on which jewelry stores had the best reputation for finer quality stones. Turns out that Cardow kept coming up with good results. We priced bobbles at a couple other places on the island but found Cardow to be our jewelry store of choice. I... More

While visiting St. Thomas, U.S.V.I, I went into Cardow Jewelers Store to purchase a very beautiful ruby and diamond ring, for my wife 23rd wedding anniversary. I would like to thank Ms. Cynthia Hughes for her outstanding customer services. She was very helpful in assisting me in picking out the right ring for my wife. Thank you very much. More

Marie at Cardow offered her friendly and knowledgeable assistance on my recent visit to St. Thomas. I picked out the perfect gift for a friend and it will be a treasured keepsake! Thank you Marie for giving me a fine deal on freshwater pearls. Convenience and quality jewelry at the airport for those who spent too much time in the... More

My boyfriend wanted to buy me a diamond ring. He had heard that THE place to buy one was the Caribbean. We bought tickets for a cruise and then I did some research online. Okay, that was scary! Basically it boils down to - you just have to be careful. We bought a jewelers lope and learned enough about how... More

After reading the reviews for Cardow, my husband and I shopped there during our vacation in December 2010. We purchased a stunning pair of diamond earrings. I thought we were finshed when my husband looked through the loose diamonds, then purchased one that we had set as a pendant. Customer service was really good, as we had to wait fo... More
