This is NOT your dad’s necktie

Antique tie pin

Baubles, Bling, and Manly Things

Earlier this year, I read an article about a new local business that really spoke to me.  I had met the owners, Micah and Alicia List,  here at Joden on several occasions but I had no idea they had started this cool and trendy business…  https://www.neckandtieco.com/shopnt.

The Neck and Tie Company moved into the loft at 144.5 South Broad Street at the end of this past summer (right upstairs from us!) and have been going strong ever since.  It just so happens that Micah’s ties are the perfect pallet for our vintage tie pins.

This is an Art Deco jabot pin made from white gold.  Each decorative end features carved rock crystal quartz, faceted onyx, and carnelian beads.  Priced at $3000, it would be a showstopper on any tie.

Dragons, and swords, and chains, Oh my!  What an exceptional example of Art Nouveau jewelry…  the hilt of the sword is decorated with natural seed pearls and light blue enamel while the blade is capped with a intricately carved dragon.  Who could resist such an elaborate display of masculine finery?  It is available on our website for just $1800 – the perfect stocking stuffer!

Be sure to stop in at 144 South Broad Street for your Christmas shopping…  visit Micah upstairs for neck ties, bow ties, and pocket squares, then visit us downstairs for the perfect tie pin.

Baubles, Bling, and Birthstone Things

For the third gift of Christmas, it’s all about birthstones – that special stone corresponding to the month you were born. There are various lists out there and alternate choices for some months, however, this one seems to be generally accepted:

birthstones

Did you know that more babies are born in August than any other month? It’s true; making peridot the most common birthstone. The peridot jewelry made during the Art Nouveau period was anything BUT common. Check out this exceptional example from the late 1890’s.  Originally available for $4500, it is now a featured Pick of the Week and has been price adjusted to just $3,650.00.  It’s an Art Nouveau must!

September boasts the second highest number of births – making sapphire quite a popular birthstone as well. These Edwardian earrings appeal to my love of converted jewelry.  Once, they were graced the cuffs of a gentleman’s shirt, now they are a fantastic pair of earrings featuring intricate patterns of engraving and two tiny cabochon sapphires. Yours for just $400!

Rounding out the top three most popular birth months is July – giving us lots of ruby babies. At Joden we offer a wide selection of Victorian rings…  these five are among the cream of the crop. Each of them is in pristine condition utilizing seed pearls and diamonds to enhance their ruby centers. These rings are all available in our showroom; priced between $600-$1900 each. Take one home today!

Whatever your birthstone may be, Joden is THE place to find your perfect birthstone piece.
