It’s Not Just For Tuesday

 Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling and Turquoise Things

With over 112,455 posts, #Turquoisetuesday has become quite a popular trend on Instagram.  On the third day of the week, my feed is guaranteed to be filled with picture upon picture of this captivating bold blue gem.  Occasionally, Dana and I hop on board… sharing some of our favorite turquoise Joden finds.  

And then we uncovered this beauty.  Too special to be identified by a simple hashtag, this baby was destined to be a blog all on its own.  Ethereal elegance exudes from this lovely Edwardian bracelet. 

Seven inches in length, platinum from end to end, this dainty line of twelve leaf-like links create romantic ambiance.  Each one is hand-set with eleven rose cut diamonds.  These 132 gems have a combined weight of 1.00 carat.  Set back to back, each pair features a bezel set European cut diamond in the center (six stones in all) for an additional .90 carat.  

Jewelry was the finishing touch of every Edwardian’s wardrobe.  This opulent era was noted for delicate designs and a predominantly white appearance – platinum, white gold, diamonds and pearls.  That’s what sets our bracelet apart from so many others…  it presents a pop of color!  Six cabochon Persian turquoise beads are interspersed between the diamond links.  Each bold blue stone presents with a high polish finish, shining nearly as bright as the diamonds. 

Made in 1905, this Edwardian enchantress is in near perfect condition…  almost like it was never worn.  What a travesty that would be!  Jewelry was never intended to be left in the safe deposit box, your jewelry box or the package it came in.  Jewelry is meant to be worn and appreciated, created and given to bring joy.  Put a little happiness into your day with this bracelet for just $5,850.00.

Pick of the Week – Volume 18

Joden Girl

Baubles and Bling with Unbelievable Pricing

The fifties…  probably the decade that I can most easily identify with.  The family unit was the most essential part of daily life.  Although the ideals seem antiquated now, I would have loved to have been a full-time mother and homemaker while my husband was the breadwinner.  In my mind, it seems like a perfect little life.

The perfect life requires the perfect accessory…  we have it at Joden.  It’s our Pick of the Week.  Made in the 1950’s this 18 karat white gold ring exemplifies simple beauty.  Made in a bypass style, this tiny gem features a matched pair of natural pearls and a pair of Old Mine Cut diamonds.  These two stones have a combined weight of approximately .20 carat. 

Bearing French hallmarks on the outside of the shank, this Mid Century Modern ring was originally priced on our site at $1300.00.  As you know, the Pick of the Week is always about offering stellar jewels at a discounted rate.  Our new unbelievable price on this ring is just $925.00!  With petite styling and modern flair, this ring looks great on the hand and even better on the budget!

Blue Moon

 Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling and Celestial Things

Instagram is filled with all things celestial…  suns, stars and perhaps most prominent – the crescent moon.  This classic symbol has timeless appeal to audiences of all ages.  A talisman for fertility, this simple shape is iconic. 

Complete with English hallmarks, this beauty is sure to elicit quite a lot of “oohs and aahs”!  I love the softly scalloped outer edge that outlines each stone held within.  This Victorian wonder features an alternating row of bright blue sapphires and dazzling diamonds.  There are eighteen Old European Cut diamonds that have a combined total weight of .50 carat and nine round sapphires that have a combined total weight of 1.10 carats. 

Brooches were all the rage in the 1880’s when this gem was created.  But now, lifestyles have changed.  Fashion has changed.  In our expert shop, with just a few small alterations, this pin can become a beautiful pendant…  this simple revision would take this lovely piece from an occasional adornment to a signature accessory.  

We began Celestial Week with a glorious moonstone pendant, showcasing multicolored enamel patterns.  This crescent moon is the perfect way to end the week.  Priced at just $2,250.00 – it will leave you feeling anything but blue.
