Joden Girl
Baubles, Bling and A Collector’s Things
The top trend predicted for 2025 is a philosophy that Joe has supported for years…. bigger is better; more IS more. Just one visit to his office is concrete proof that Joe does, indeed, believe that size matters. Take a step inside the door of the inner sanctum of Joden Jewelers, and you will be overcome not just by the amount of jewelry inside, but also the size of it. From a renowned collection of Victorian treasures nestled inside the original boxes to an award-winning array of one-of-a-kind pieces crafted on the premises… if Joe can dream it, we have it. If “bigger is better” is the theme of 2025, we’re SO ready.
When it comes to lavish, over-the-top fashion and luxurious accessories, no one did it better than the Victorians… not even Joe Murawski. Beginning and ending with the years of Queen Victoria’s reign (1837-1901), the era was characterized by elaborate designs brought to life with sizable gems of every shape and color. Today’s featured piece showcases Victorian style to perfection.
Made from 15-karat yellow gold, this layout necklace achieves an ideal balance between delicate composition and jaw-dropping beauty. Measuring 17-inches in length, this late Victorian charmer rests comfortably at the base of the throat. Three interlocking tiers are set with soft blue aquamarines, sparkling peridot gems and creamy pearls. The dainty gemstone flowers combine with golden chain garlands to create an ethereal wonder.
In the photo above, I have paired this seemingly fancy necklace with a simple embroidered chambray shirt dress that I picked up at a local thrift store. Don’t save your jewelry for special occasions. Wear your diamonds to the supermarket; rock your pearls with jeans and a t-shirt. No need to worry about losing this necklace by wearing it out and about – it has a safety chain incorporated right in! Proving that elaborate jewelry can still be delicately beautiful and ideal for day-to-day life, this necklace is available now for $6,350.00. Call and make it yours today.
