Cappello & Company

The Cappello family started in the diamond business in 1981 in in HighlandsNC, opening an estate auction gallery. The family operated auction galleries in Highlands, as well as Hilton Head, SC and Clearwater, FL. With the knowledge gained from working in the auction business and through industry affiliations, Joe Cappello started traveling abroad to Antwerp, Belgium, and Israel, selecting and purchasing diamonds directly from the manufacturer. This enabled him to"cut out the middleman"as he opened up a wholesale diamond business supplying diamonds to stores throughout the Caribbean. Soon, a partnership was developed with a prominent jewelry manufacturer, and the two opened retail stores in the Caribbean, starting in St. Maarten, and eventually expanding to Ketchikan, Alaska. Recently, the Cappellos have sold out of their Caribbean operations to concentrate on their Belleair Bluffs store. The Cappellos have now been selling diamonds at wholesale prices to Tampa Bay area residents for nearly two decades. We are a family run business; when you visit the store you deal directly with an owner.
