Joe’s Special Box – Volume 131

Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling, and A Collector’s Things

One of the most sought after pieces that we have at Joden are vintage wedding bands.  The little darlings are in high demand and short supply.  Whether you have a modern halo diamond engagement ring or an Edwardian filigree beauty – either pairs perfectly with the charming details and classic designs of antique bands.  

The versatility knows no bounds…  stack them up, wear them individually.  Wedding ring, thumb ring, pinky ring…  you can wear a dainty band on any or every finger.  Our unique collection offers selections in yellow gold, white gold, platinum or two tone.  Some feature diamonds while others offer enchanting engraving.  My favorites are the one that still have messages inscribed inside from the original wearers.  

This little number got me from the word go.  Perfectly petite, this ring centers of a series of milgrain-edged diamond settings.  Each tiny square features a single-cut diamond in the center – these five stones offer a hint of sparkle.  Additional details include small pierced openings on each shoulder as well as crisp engraving and a groove etched into the base of the ring, creating great visual texture.  

The original metal hallmark remains bold inside the ring, noting that it is made from 10% Iridium Platinum.  Too sweet to beat, this Edwardian band from Joe’s Special Box is priced at $725.00.  Pick up the phone or stop by the store – this antique gem won’t last long.

Joe’s Special Box – Volume 89

Baubles, Bling, and A Collector’s Things

I love vintage wedding bands…  and if they are eternity bands, so much the better.  Call me a romantic, but I adore the sentiment behind the eternity band.  Infinite or unending time…  the ultimate definition of marriage.  My own wedding band features a continual pattern of platinum diamond daisies with textured 18 karat yellow gold centers – check it out!  

Each time I stumble across an old wedding band, I do several things.  First and foremost, I try it on.  I want to know how it fits, what it feels like, and how it looks on my hand.  Then, I go all over it with my loupe…  inside and out.  Does it have any hallmarks?  Inside engraving?  Finally, I ask myself “Is this blog worthy?”  This band is most definitely blog worthy!

This 14 karat two tone beauty from Joe’s Special Box is absolutely divine.  Where to begin?  Perhaps with that scalloped edge created from a series of half-moon designs.  This utterly feminine detail enhances the lacy pattern of the center section.  Ten east/west oriented marquise shapes are carefully fitted between ten narrow parallel bars.  Each marquise has been set with a single round diamond for a combined weight of .30 carat – a little sparkle is always good!

It looks great on the hand and is quite comfortable.  This little gem is perfect alone but would also work well in a stack.  It’s available now on our site for just $560.00.  Make it yours now.
