Established in downtown Annapolis, Maryland, in 1992, Zachary's Jewelers provides a remarkable service to its patrons, providing the finest quality high fashion jewelry and an unlimited number of diamonds imported directly from Israel, South Africa and India.

In 1998, Zachary's was selected by Tiffany & Company as one of 70 stores nationwide to sell its products, and this year was selected by Philip Stein® as one of only 50 stores in the country and the only one in the state of Maryland to sell its Teslar® watch collection, recently worn by Oprah Winfrey.

Steve Samaras, the owner of Zachary's Jewelers, brings more than 25 years of experience to the jewelry industry. Samaras continues to oversee every diamond and jewelry purchase so that it meets his strict standards for both quality and design.

A member of Jewelers of America and Couture Jeweler, Samaras is highly revered in the industry and sits on the advisory committee for the Centurion Jewelry Show.

Samaras' continued involvement with local charities and their fundraising efforts has solidified the respect he receives from the local community. He has served as the President of the Annapolis Business Association and Vice President of the Annapolis and Anne Arundel County Conference and Visitors Bureau, and is currently an active board member of the Annapolis and Anne Arundel County Chamber of Commerce.
