Baubles, Bling and Stacking Rings

Last week we talked about the ever-increasing popularity of stack-able rings. They’re everywhere… even Amazon is trying to get a piece of the action. This trend is not new at all; actually, the art of piling up rings has captivated us for centuries. It’s been going on so long, that it can’t really be called a trend… it’s a wardrobe staple. And, it’s not just for rings… any kind of jewelry is stack-able. If you have multiple ear piercings, this is your sign to get to Joden. We have studs, hoops, huggies, dangles, drops, climbers, threaders and even a couple of cuffs!

Dana and I had to swap spots for this body shot; she has three sets of piercings in her ears. She has the perfect set-up for a sensational ear stack.

The inspiration for this combination begins with these dangles. The rich tones of 18-karat yellow gold wrap four pieces of apple-green jade in a warm embrace. Flashes of light dance across the mottled surface of each piece. A singular round diamond separates the smaller jade from the larger. Classic and timeless, these beauties are available for just $725.00.

Next, is a must-have for every jewelry wardrobe. Also made from 18-karat yellow gold, these traditional four-prong settings cradle a pair of dappled, lush green jade rounds. Featuring threaded posts and backs, these studs will quickly become your go-to choice. Make them yours for just $625.00.

Simple, yet effective, the third pair of earrings in this stack are small gold balls. Pretty and petite, they’re the perfect size. Made from 14-karat yellow gold, they also feature threaded posts and backs. Priced at a mere $65.00, these won’t last long.

Last, but certainly not least is a tiny c-shaped cuff. No piercing is needed for this clever piece. Made by Luvente, this cuff is part of a modern jewelry line that we carry. It’s 14-karat yellow gold with a trio of tiny, round brilliant diamond accents. Able to be worn on the helix, the conch or the lobe of the ear, this tiny treasure is available for $195.00

If you’ve been adding it up as we go along, you’ll have come to the same conclusion as I have… this fabulous look can be yours for a total of $1,610.00. That’s two pairs of 18-karat yellow gold classics, one pair of 14-karat yellow gold balls and one cuff. Wear them together, separately or combined with any of your other earrings, this ear stack is too good to pass up.

Signature Series – Volume 18

Baubles, Bling and Quality Things

In 1979, partners Jay Bauer and Anthony Hopenhajm founded a new and innovative jewelry design firm that utilized organic materials like rare wood breeds and seashells as well as gemstones. The result was bold – these chic motifs became wearable modern art. Trianon pieces were instantly recognizable and highly sought after.

Just thirteen years later, in 1992, this dynamic duo purchased another iconic company. Seaman Schepps was a well-known brand for decades. Established in 1904, the aesthetic was very much the same as Trianon – natural elements and candy-colored gems reigned supreme. Schepps was an American designer inspired by frequent trips to Paris, the fashion capital of the world. A family company, the firm passed from father to daughter after his retirement in the late 1960’s. Patricia was at the helm of the ship until she sold to Jay and Anthony. Trianon and Seaman Schepps continue to be widely recognized and wildly successful.

A recent acquisition, these original Trianon studs offer the whimsical style that the brand is famous for. These 20mm earrings capitalize on an unusual shade of jade. Presenting with a lovely soft greenish-blue hue, each rounded cabochon gem is polished to a shine and nestled within a 14-karat yellow gold frame. A solid sheet of gold covers the back of each earring and fully encapsulates the edge of the jade.

Though these earrings are currently made in non-pierced fashion, a post could easily be added for those with pierced ears. My favorite part of the earrings is the whimsical and somewhat random golden rivets that decorate the smooth surface of the jade. There are two distinct sizes of rivets, a small and a larger size. The larger rivets hold four round cabochon sapphires and the smaller rivets hold three round brilliant diamonds in each earrings. The deep blue and white gems add a bright pop of color. Combined, the eight sapphires have a weight of .40 carat and the six diamonds have a weight of .18 carat.

Shown here, the Trianon hallmark is crisp and clean. Likely made in the 1980’s, these are the latest addition to our estate department. The earrings are available for just $1,350.00. After assuming ownership of Seaman Schepps, Anthony Hopenhajm stated “It is vital, as time passes, to look around, be receptive to the times, and to be open to changes in the marketplace and potential clients.” That’s very solid advice from a man who leads not just one but two powerhouse jewelry companies!

The Color of Spring

Baubles, Bling and Lavender Things

From the late days of March through the middle of June, Western Pennsylvania is alive with the sights and sounds of Spring. Tiny frogs called peepers begin chirping – a magical song that ushers in the season. The air is thick with an intoxicating fragrance… a mixture of rain, fresh soil and new growth. A glorious array of flowers break through the newly thawed earth… the very first ones to appear in my yard are always the crocuses. These miniature beauties bloom in various shades of yellow, white and my favorite… lavender.

Pastel hues are perfect for spring – these earrings are no exception. Made from 18 karat rose gold, these charming bits of bling have an oval shape made in classic stud style.

Set with four claw-like prongs, these earrings feature a matched pair of lavender jade ovals. With a combined weight of 1.86 carats, these gems are cut into smooth cabochons – a popular cut for jade. Opaque by nature, lavender jade is believed to bring inner peace and harmony to your heart. Many trust this lilac-hued stone to soothe, heal and create a sense of balance by putting you in touch with your emotions.

A series of sixty-six baguette diamonds form a unique halo around the jade centers. These tapered stones have a total weight of 1.20 carats. The halo style has been extremely popular for the past decade – although it usually features round diamonds. These step-cut baguettes offer subtle sparkle and elegant appeal. These earrings are carefully marked on the back with the karat weight of the gold as well as the gem weight of all stones. This is a clever feature occasionally utilized by modern jewelers – it’s key in calculating value and can also be used for identification purposes.

The classic flair of these lavender lovelies will have you pairing them with everything from denim to silk. Find your inner peace in style with these beautiful earrings, available on our site for just $1,875.00.
