The Early Bird Gets The Worm

Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling, Gifts and Things

Every year I vow that I will start Christmas shopping early.  I promise myself (and my husband) that I’ll get a head start and that I won’t go overboard.  And every year I find myself still picking up last minute gifts on Christmas Eve.  And when I drag all the bags, boxes, and packages out to begin the midnight wrap-a-thon…  there’s no doubt that I have, indeed, gone overboard.  Again.  

This is going to be my year!  It’s only October and I have already purchased five presents!  That’s right – FIVE!  I can hardly believe it myself.  This can be your year, too.  For the next twelve weeks, I am going to share a series of gift worthy pieces, starting with this gorgeous diamond band.  Stay tuned each week, and check those names off your list with exclusive gifts from Joden.  

An openwork pattern of alternating sideways hearts and diamonds come together in this band ring. Made of 14 karat white gold, this glittering gem features 121 round brilliant diamonds.  It sparkles from every angle.  I love it on my index or middle finger – but it works just as well on a ring finger or even a thumb. And here’s the best part (you might want to sit down for this)…  it’s available now for just $700!  It’s a big look for a budget price.  But we only have one – so don’t hesitate.  Come in, call me, text me, or send an email – buy this ring.  It the perfect gift for someone on your list, even if that someone is you.  Stay tuned for next week’s early bird special!

Put A Ring On It

Baubles, Bling, and Engagement Rings

There is no better gift for Christmas than a shiny, sparkling diamond engagement ring.  Christmas is a magical holiday all on it’s own – combine that with the promise of a lifetime and a stunning ring – it’s a match made in heaven!

At Joden, we have the perfect engagement ring for everyone.  Modern, vintage, classic, and non-traditional.  Diamonds in every shape and size.  Gold in every color – white, yellow, and rose.  Platinum, too!  The possibilities are as endless as the commitment it represents. 

    

The ring on the left is a platinum Art Deco ring from the 1920’s.  Six navette shapes provide just enough detail to highlight the 1.25 carat center stone.  At nearly 100 years old, this ring is the epitome of classic.  It is available on our website now for only $8900.

The ring on the right is a Mid Century beauty.  The transitional modern cut center stone weighs in at .75 carats and is flanked by eight single cut diamonds.  This ring also has a hint of engraving on the shoulders.  When you combine each of these elements with great value (priced at just $4500!), it’s a deal too good to resist.

If you’re looking for a crisp new ring, but love all the details of an Art Deco piece, this is the one for you.  You won’t be able to stop staring at this 1.00 carat center diamond.  Graded as a “D” color, it is among the rarest in the world.  This 18 karat white gold ring also features eight custom cut natural blue sapphires, six fully faceted round diamonds, filigree wirework, and intricate engraving.  This showstopper is available now on our website for $11,050.

Take some of that Christmas magic and make it your own with a ring from Joden Jewelers.

We have two more days of holiday hours.  Our showroom is open today and tomorrow from 9am-8pm with select hours on Christmas Eve.  As always, our website is available 24/7 with free overnight shipping to ensure holiday delivery.

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.
