Baubles, Bling and Quality Things

“At David Yurman, creativity, innovation, and impeccable craftsmanship are at the core of everything we do.  Fueled by the energy of our hometown, New York City, artistic passion informs each and every jewelry design.  The Yurman family’s guiding vision continually defines and redefines what it means to be the preeminent American luxury jewelry brand.”

David Yurman is one of the most well-known and readily recognized jewelry designers in the modern era.  Their sleek, contemporary motifs created in sterling silver and 18-karat yellow gold have been sought after by stylish men and women since opening their doors in 1980.  

As an estate jeweler, we are often able to offer great pieces from iconic brands at an incredible price.  The most recent additions to our estate department were simply too good not to share.  From the Chiclet Collection, we have this must-have pair of 18-karat yellow gold petite hoops.  Each one is comprised of seven bezel-set gemstones.  Combined, there are eight cushion-shaped citrines that have a total weight of 2.30 carats and six round citrines that have a total weight of 1.50 carats.  The cushions feature checkerboard-faceted tops.  

Alternating back and forth between the two shapes, these sparkling stones display a variety of hues  – deep golds, warm oranges and greenish-yellow.  Available elsewhere for upwards of $1,250.00 – we are offering these beauties on our site for just $1,050.00!  

This ring is from a current David Yurman line – the Crossover Collection.  “Intertwined strands of cable symbolize David and Sybil Yurman’s love and shared artistic vision.”  The words from the DY site eloquently describe the inspiration for the collection.  Every piece in the Crossover line is an engagement ring.  A singular fine diamond is situated at the apex of a pair of intersecting cable bands.  Our ring features a .92 carat round brilliant center stone.

Bright white, this diamond is an F-G in color and a VS2 in clarity.  A twist on the classic solitaire, this engagement is simple perfection.  It glides over the knuckle with ease and rest comfortably at the base of the finger.  

The cable bands are made from 18-karat yellow gold and the diamond is secured in a four-prong platinum head.  Seal your engagement with this elegant ring – it’s available on our site for just $4,800.00. 

If you love designer jewelry but not those designer prices, then estate jewelry is for you.  For those of you new to the game, the term “estate” refers to a piece of jewelry that is pre-owned.  Subscribe to the blog and discover more fabulous finds like these.

Baubles, Bling, and Pink Things

This morning – in the midst of packing backpacks, finding homework, and pouring bowls of cereal – I quickly changed around the laundry to save myself some time later.  I pulled the clothes from the dryer; a black and gold Grove City Eagles jersey with the #2 on it, shiny black pants, and a pair of bright pink socks… everything my oldest son will need to dress for his game tomorrow.  He also proudly adds his pink arm bands and adheres strips of pink tape to everything from his visor to his cleats.  If it were January or any other month of the year, he wouldn’t even consider wearing pink – but this month, he and his teammates honor all those who have battled breast cancer.

That got me thinking pink, in every variety…  pink gold, sparkling pink gemstones, and soft pink enamels.  Pink, pink, pink!

These three pieces are just a couple of examples of the unique pink jewels we have in our online store; from a pair of David Yurman pink tourmaline earrings to a modern Rhodonite ring.  There are infinitely more choices in our store at 144 South Broad Street.  So, whether you are wearing pink for yourself or in honor of someone else, Joden is the place to get it!
