Few places do big, bold gems better than Provident Jewelry. The boutique focuses largely on opulent, statement-making pieces, and half of the sprawling Naples storefront (they also have locations in Fort Myers and Palm Beach) is devoted to their most singular, high-value treasures. When we went looking for the grandest jewels in town, we knew to look no further than Provident’s ‘Dream Factory’ showroom, which is fittingly decked out with a posh bar for private clients to sip Champagne while browsing the brilliant vitrines.
Artfully walking the line between classic and contemporary, Provident’s collection is filled with precious adornments you’ll want to pass down. The jeweler has a knack for Art Deco-inspired designs that, with their bold shapes and luscious gemstones, feel fitting today—and forever.
