Joe’s Special Box – Volume 69

Nine years.  That’s how long the Edwardian Period lasted.  From 1901-1910 – this era produced some of the most beautiful and highly sought after jewelry of all time.  In the early days, platinum masterpieces featured a yellow gold base, like this ethereal gem…

A stunning combination of Old European Cut diamonds, Rose Cut diamonds, and one natural pearl create pure magic.  The seven larger stones have a combined weight of 1.50 carats, while an additional 39 rose cut diamonds amp up the bling factor.  Every knife-edge is hand decorated with a small beaded ridge technique referred to as milgrain.  It softens the overall look of this early 20th century necklet which is suspended from a light platinum chain.  The jewels from this time are often compared to petit point embroidery due to their delicate and lacy appearance.  Perfect for a bride on her wedding day or simply an evening on the town, make this beauty yours for just $3850.  Available now in Joe’s Special Box.

Old rose gold – it’s so romantic.  The soft pink undertones are much more subtle than modern rose gold.  It’s timeless.  This trio of rings from Joe’s Special Box are perfect examples of the beauty of old rose gold.  

Take a moment and appreciate the incomparable attributes of each one.  I love the tiny details – flower buds, trumpet-shaped flares, beaded edges, and asymmetrical scroll-work.  They’re exceptional and uniquely Victorian.  Call me old-fashioned, but I’ll take true antique over vintage-inspired every single time.  Whether they be set with Old European Cut diamonds or rose cuts, the authenticity of these rings speaks for itself.  When selecting a ring (An engagement ring or otherwise) be sure to choose something as individual as you are – a real one-of-a-kind.  Priced from $450-$1950, this dynamic trilogy is located in Joe’s Special Box.

Baubles, Bling, and Amazing Things

Forget sapphires, emeralds, and rubies… get a load of these showstoppers!  Four rings with an incredibly rare center stone.  With colors ranging from a warm honey tone to a vivid yellow green, these beauties are sure to dazzle.  Perhaps you’ve taken note of the white stripe across the center of each one?  This is known as chatoyancy, and occurs when the stone is introduced to a direct beam of light.  As you may have guessed, it’s more commonly known as the “cat’s eye effect”.  Other gems exhibit this amazing wonder, but none as distinct as Chrysoberyl.  It’s only found in a few places around the world, and is a favorite of gemstone lovers everywhere.  Ladies and gentleman, I present to you the Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl. 

Named after the one thing that it so clearly resembles, the Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl is as lovely as it is extraordinary.  The simplicity of this 18 karat yellow gold three stone ring allows the round cabochon gemstone to truly shine.  When the ring is turned from side to side, the eye glides across the surface.  Two Old European Cut diamonds flank the Cat’s Eye, amping up the shine of this ravishing ring.  For additional details, check it out on our site.

If you prefer a ring that makes a bold statement, choose one of these unisex pieces.  The first ring is made from 18 karat yellow gold and features two rows of five round brilliant diamonds each – these ten stones have a combined weight of .25 carats.  This piece is available in our showroom for $5500.00.  The second ring, made from a striking combination of 14 karat yellow gold and platinum, highlights a 12.00 carat Cat’s Eye.  The eye of the stone runs left to right, perpendicular to the finger.  Whether worn on a woman’s index finger or a man’s pinky – this is a strong look that won’t be ignored.  For additional photos and pricing, follow the links to our site.  

The phenomena of nature…  it’s awe-inspiring.  Shown here, in all its glory, Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl is a stone that is as beautiful as it is rare…  like so many of the jewels and gems available exclusively at Joden.  Our store IS the cat’s meow!
