Shop our unique collection of beach and sea themed jewelry, authentic ancient and Spanish treasure coins and fine estate jewelry.
Sanibel Island vacationers and beach and sea themed jewelry enthusiasts from throughout the United States and around the world love to browse and shop our unique collection of sea themed jewelry influenced by the beauty of Sanibel.
The Cedar Chest was founded by John and Pat Zambuto in 1975 with a small collection of 14kt. gold chains and sea life charms. Over the past 48 years we’ve grown to become known throughout the world for our unusual collection of sea and nature themed jewelry; unique pieces that celebrate the beauty and diversity of Sanibel Island, as well as Florida’s wildlife and landscape.
Pat’s love of nature and the unspoiled beauty of Sanibel’s beaches, birds, sea life, and tropical foliage is the inspiration for many of the most unique and creative pieces of fine jewelry you’ll find anywhere. Many years ago The Cedar Chest created an exclusive collection of original in-house designs that has become one of the store’s most popular and sought after choices by our beach loving shoppers. The Cedar Chest also offers an extensive collection of authentic ancient and Spanish treasure coins and fine estate jewelry.
Extremely knowledgeable staff and excellent service! Great jewelry!
Amazing place. The jewelry is exquisite. So much to choose from and wonderful one on one customer service. I highly recommend The Cedar Chest to everyone for all of their jewelry needs and wants.
Awesome store and staff! I have been buying jewelry from them since 1975. They have a fabulous selection and really great prices. Their sealife selection is the best around. I love to peek into their Estate cases when I visit. I always find a treasure to bring home.
Really nice selection of jewelry, lots of sea-themed pieces. Julie helped me get a lovely larimar piece and aquamarine ring. Wanted to get more but couldn’t. Next time!
Excellent customer service and absolutely beautiful jewelry!

In September 2022 the damage from Hurricane Ian forced us to evacuate our beloved store. Our jewelry is now available on our website. You will find our exclusive one-of-a-kind designs, 14kt. and 18kt. gold sealife and beach jewelry, fine fashion jewelry, estate pieces, ancient and Spanish treasure coin jewelry, and nautical sterling silver. We are adding new pieces as they become available. We invite you to browse our site and email, text or call us with any questions or special requests. We will do our best to respond to you in a timely manner.
We hope you enjoy seeing our collection of fine jewelry including the many pieces that celebrate the unspoiled beauty of our tropical paradise. We look forward to hearing from old friends and making new ones.
