Ribbons and Bows

Baubles, Bling and Meaningful Things

In a couple of weeks, we will celebrate the special women in our lives.  May 9th is Mother’s Day, but this momentous occasion isn’t just for moms.  We honor our mothers, grandmas, stepmoms, sisters, wives, daughters, nieces and friends.  These ladies are an integral part of our lives.  In my family, the women are the strength and lifeblood of the home.  They are breadwinners and homemakers; caregivers and comforters.  These women keep our family tied together.  

A ribbon tied into a bow symbolizes strength and unity.  This double looped knot with trailing tails has been a significant theme in fine jewelry for hundreds of years.  Made of 14 karat white gold, this ring from the 1960’s is formed from a pair of whimsical bows.  One tail from each bow unfurls and wraps around the center stone.  A rich red oval ruby is set at a jaunty angle in the middle of the ring.  Weighing 1.10 carats, this crimson stone is the heart of this Mid-Century beauty.  Subtle sparkle and shine are added with fourteen single-cut diamonds…  they have a combined weight of .25 carat.  Every element of this ring sings in perfect harmony.  

Like the inspirational ladies in our lives, this ring is a visual representation of strength and unity.  What more appropriate gift could you give this Mother’s Day?  Priced at just $675, this ring is available on our site.  Add it to your cart before someone else does!

Pick of the Week – Volume 16

Joden Girl

Baubles and Bling with Unbelievable Pricing

The Pick of the Week is my favorite feature blog.  I adore the idea of making some of our most cherished items more affordable!  Who wouldn’t love that?  Without question, the diamond engagement rings have been the most popular pieces.  

This week, we’re focusing on a different price point…  an authentic, mint- condition Victorian ring.  It’s a tiny treasure!  Made from 9 karat yellow gold, with 18 karat gold gilding, this ring is perfection.  I love the architectural outline… with gentle curves and bold edges.  Distinctly divided into segments, this antique three stone ring is beautiful from every angle.

One rose cut diamond is set within an eight-pointed star in the center.  It’s flanked by a pair of old cut rubies that are also star-set.  This style was quite popular during the Victorian era, adding a bit of flair to each little gem.  A pair of triangles are carefully etched into each side of the shank.

Three distinct hallmarks are stamped inside the shank of this English ring.  It’s a wonderful example of fine antique jewelry.  Previously priced at $850.00, this piece is available now for just $675.00!
