Holiday Glow

Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling, and Diamond Earrings

Just look at these beauties…  14 karat rose gold diamond earrings.  Every girl needs a great pair of diamond studs.  They’re classic, like the little black dress of jewelry.  The perfect addition to every outfit – from denim to cashmere – you can’t go wrong, and these are no exception.  

Made from a glorious rosy gold, these are not your average diamond studs.  These gems are made in a modern halo-style.  Each one is set with a round brilliant diamond center; the two stones have a combined weight of .79 carats.  Surrounding these bright diamonds are an additional twenty-eight diamonds that weigh .28 carats.  That brings the total of all diamonds to 1.07 carats – over a half carat in each ear!  The low profile style makes a statement and yet is still perfect for daily wear.

When rose gold began to emerge as a trend a couple of years ago, I really thought it would be short-lived.  White gold and platinum had reigned supreme for more than two decades.  How could this pink-hued metal rival that?  Fast forward to 2018, and it’s clear that I couldn’t have been more wrong.  Rose gold is perhaps the most requested metal at the engagement case, with yellow gold taking a close second.  Don’t get me wrong, ladies still love white gold and platinum, it’s just that now there are more options – like these earrings!  The rose gold gives them a little extra something, a bit of a glow.  Who doesn’t love a little holiday glow…  I know I do.  Priced at $2450.00, these have arrived at Joden just in time for Santa.

All I Want For Christmas

Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling, and a Sapphire Ring

I know, I know…  it’s not even Halloween yet.  The leaves are just starting to turn and pumpkin spice is popping up everywhere.  Fall is finally here.  And as a die-hard jeans and hoodie kind of girl, this is my favorite time of year.  It’s football games, bonfires, and candy corn.  But, these days you can get your Halloween treats and Christmas stockings at the same time.  Christmas, it seems, comes earlier every year.  There are really only two choices…  fight it to the bitter end or get on board.  Let’s try for the latter…

  

Last week, I shared a stunning openwork diamond band.  It was the first in a series of holiday gift suggestions.  This sapphire ring is next on my list.  Made from a gorgeous 14 karat rose gold, this vintage inspired beauty is sure to bring squeals of delight on December 25th.  Delicate filigree swirls are accented by four tiny round brilliant diamonds.  A rich blue cushion shaped sapphire is the crowning glory for this piece.  Weighing 1.15 carats, this cerulean gem is positively drool worthy.

Perfect as a right hand ring or for those of you seeking a non-traditional engagement ring – this week’s selection is moderately priced at $2950.00.  At Joden, we have more sapphire rings than I can count – but one thing is sure…  we have the perfect piece for you.  We’re open Monday through Saturday from 9-5.  Our experts are on hand to help you with every name on your Christmas list, even if they’re on the naughty list!

Take Time to Smell the Roses…

Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling and Sparkly Things

“Stop and smell the roses”…  Isn’t that how the old saying goes?  Who wouldn’t take time for this beauty?  Like the petals of a flower, this ring has layers of rich detail…  each one more captivating than the last.

Let’s start with that cushion shaped halo…  arguably the most iconic element of engagement ring trends for more than five years running.  This particular one cradles a 1.75 carat diamond.  Laboratory graded as J-K in color, and VS in clarity, this stone hits the sweet spot where beauty and value come together.  The International Gemological Institute of America has appraised the ring at over $23,000.  Go to our site and check out the special pricing!  You won’t be disappointed, I promise!

The ring itself is made entirely of 18 karat rose gold…  the subtle pink tone of the metal highlights the eighty-eight fully faceted diamonds that are nestled into every nook and cranny.  These diamonds have a combined weight of .70 carats, bringing the total diamond weight of the ring to 2.45 carats!   

My favorite element of the ring has to be the contrast of the round diamond center in the squarish halo.  It’s an unexpected twist that really works.  Modern style meets classic elegance!  As always…
