Baubles, Bling and Emerald Things

If you ask someone what their favorite piece of jewelry is, 99% of the time, it will be a ring. Diamond rings, colored stones, shiny gold bands – pick your poison… we have an unbeatable selection. These bits of finger bling elicit “oohs”, “aahs”, and countless smiles. With Christmas right around the corner, we have been VERY busy making sure that each case is brimming with an irresistible selection.

Art Deco (the years between 1915-1935) is the most popular era. Moving ahead from the lacy and feminine feel of Edwardian jewelry, Art Deco offered a modernist vibe. Sleek and often geometric designs showcased dazzling diamonds and occasionally a tiny pop of color. In the past few weeks, we have added more than fifty vintage rings to our Deco display, including this little charmer.

Made from 18-karat white gold, this ring offers a softly rounded silhouette complete with milgrain borders and a touch of engraving. The center features one round diamond nestled within a hexagon-shaped setting, two additional round diamonds are situated on either side. These three stones have a combined weight of .65 carat. Eight more diamonds decorate the outer edges and shoulders of the ring bringing an additional .35 carat of sparkle.

Set between the three main diamonds are four triangular emeralds. These bright green gems are oriented point to point, adding to the classic geometric feel of this Art Deco dream. I’m usually a sucker for sapphires… but recently, I have been drawn to these bright beryl beauties. Priced at just $1,750.00 – this sweet little ring is in very good condition. If you’ve been wanting to add some green under your tree, this ring is the perfect choice!

Baubles, Bling and the Latest Things

Last week we featured an absolutely stellar Art Deco inspired ring from modern designer SophiaD. Today, we’re wow-ing you with an authentic original beauty. Elongated and elegant, this navette-shaped ring is positively dripping with 1920’s appeal.

Platinum from top to bottom, the outline of this ring resembles a pair of triangles facing opposite directions. At the center of each one is a bright blue imitation sapphire. The silhouette of these gems is a five-sided diamond shape. Cutting techniques advanced during the 1920’s giving way to many new and innovative configurations like these.

Nestled between the two blue stones is a round diamond in a square setting. Six single cut diamonds mark each corner of the two triangles. These seven diamonds have a combined weight of approximately .30 carat. Further complementing the 1920’s look are trademark details that include pierced openwork, milgrain beaded edges and deeply etched patterns of engraving. Measuring just under an inch from end to end, this ring is ideally sized and easy to wear.

A perfect choice, this ring can be fitted to nearly any finger and is the latest addition to our estate department. It’s on our site for just $1,065.00 – and won’t last long with a price like that. If you’ve always wanted an authentic Art Deco, this one is simply too good to pass up. Hop on over to www.joden.com and check it out for yourself.

Baubles, Bling and Quality Things

The heart of the Art Deco period encompassed the years from 1920-1930. It was a decade of discovery and innovation for pioneering jewelers. Strongly influenced by Cubism, the jewelry of the era showcased geometric shapes and bold colored gemstones. Diamonds still reigned supreme but were often accented by fancy cut rubies, emeralds, and blue sapphires of the very best quality.

The influence of the period has been far-reaching – in fact, the seductive allure of the Art Deco style is still bewitching today’s designers. Sleek and elegant with timeless appeal, Art Deco is always en vogue. Many modern manufacturers have sought to recreate the iconic styles from the 1920’s – none more successful than SophiaD. This New York City trailblazer has merged the technology of today with classic Art Deco design.

Platinum, the king of metals, shines to perfection in this beauty. The structure of the ring is domed, harkening back to the Art Deco era. This unique style elevates the center diamond off the finger while still keeping it harmoniously blended within the highly detailed design. Six French cut blue sapphires create the loveliest staircase that culminates with a showstopping emerald cut diamond. Weighing 1.36 carats – this bright white diamond is graded by the Gemological Institute of America as an F color and VS1 in clarity. Two additional rows of diamonds crown the top and bottom edges of the ring and showcase an additional forty round brilliant diamonds. Truly stunning from every angle, this modern marvel is available on our site for just $10,450.00.

Rooted with a rich history of quality and superior design, each SophiaD piece is crafted with the finest materials the industry has to offer. There can be no doubt why this bold statement is highlighted on the SophiaD website:

“We reflect the flamboyant and playful attitudes of the era and obtain nothing but a sleek beautiful style. Some of the great jewelry houses, including Cartier, Tiffany and Van Cleef & Arpels, are considered to have created some of their most iconic work during the Art Deco period. It is our time here at SophiaD to create the most important elegant and such timeless pieces for the next generation.”

And here, at Joden, our own motto continues to hold true…

“You can go to a museum and look, or come to us and touch.”
