Birthstone jewelry is an easy go-to gift. It’s a great choice for a first piece of jewelry. A symbolic representation of the month we were born in, birthstones celebrate a small yet important part of who we are. Scientists have conducted studies that have found that birth months can affect career paths and even personality traits. Today, we’re honoring those born in November with a bold and beautiful ring.

The rich, warm tone of 18-karat yellow gold is an ideal choice for the November birthstone, citrine. Measuring approximately half an inch at the top, this three-row beauty sits comfortably on the hand. Combining two distinct setting techniques, the shoulders of this ring are set with round and square diamonds. The outer two rows showcase prong set round diamonds while the center row highlights channel set square diamonds. With a combined weight of approximately 1.00 carat, these thirty-six diamonds truly shine.

Held in place with one prong on each corner, the center stone is emerald cut. Boasting a deep orange hue, this citrine weighs approximately 5.50 carats! The details of this modern ring sing in perfect harmony. Citrine is believed to have a calming energy that brings fortune and good luck to the wearer. Bring good vibes to your life or someone you love with this ring for just $2,250.00.

January babies have long been celebrated with a lustrous bright red stone known as garnet. This gem is rarely treated due to it’s natural color and clarity. Found in a brilliant array of red, orange, yellow, purple and green, garnet is one of the most beautiful and affordable of the semi-precious stones.

Thought to bring virtues such as love and luck to those born in the first month of the year, it’s the perfect way to start a new year.

Usher in 2022 with this bold ring that features a uniquely faceted Mozambique round garnet center. Weighing over eight carats, this stone was shaped using a variation of a checker-cut style. With graduating sizes of facets in the form of a parallelogram, this modern technique adds unusual sparkle to the deep red gem. It’s surrounded by an additional sixteen small round garnets that have a combined weight of 2.75 carats.

The entire ring is crafted from a rosy 18 karat gold. At a glance, it reminded me of a Victorian piece – the large physical presence, the color and karatage of the gold as well as the bohemian feel of the ring are all characteristics of the mid to late 1800’s. Whoever designed this ring was able to combine the look of an antique ring and a modern cut garnet with real finesse and style to create a truly unique ring.

Moderately priced at $1,175.00 – this ring is a dream for anyone, not just those born in January. Make a statement in 2022 with this bold beauty from Joden Jewelers.

Joe’s Special Box – Volume 135

Baubles, Bling, and A Collector’s Things

Not every treasure at Joden is antique. In fact, many of my favorite pieces are estate. In the simplest of terms, estate means that something is pre-owned. I prefer to think of it as “pre-loved”. As hard as it is to imagine, pieces from the 1980’s are already almost 40 years old.

This sweet little ring from Joe’s Special Box is a perfect choice for a first ring. Centering on three diagonal lines, the open work design of the ring is lovely. Made of 14 karat yellow gold, it holds five stones. Three of these gems are round brilliant diamonds that have a total weight of just .10 carat. A pair of round opals flank the center diamond, one above and one below. Opal is one of the most popular gemstones at Joden, and it’s the birthstone for October! Customers are drawn to the unique multi-colored fire that lives inside each one. Much like snowflakes, no two are exactly the same.

This dainty darling is comfortable and easy to wear. It slides over the knuckle with ease, sitting pretty at the base of the finger. A simple turn of the hand showcases the subtle sparkle of the diamonds as well as the pops of pink and green flashing from both opals. Priced at just $365.00, this ring is scheduled to be a new arrival on our website. Be sure to check our site later this week for additional details.
