Joden Girl
Baubles, Bling and Classic Things
If you’re craving a warm buttery piece of yellow gold for your spring wardrobe, Joden is the place. Our cases are overflowing with antique, estate and modern gold, like this beauty. Made near the end of the Victorian era, this golden bangle is simple elegance. A singular bar of gold with squared edges wraps the wrist with the two ends overlapping on the top portion. This sweet bit of arm candy offers a subtle sheen with a non-reflective matte finish.
Ensconced within a bezel setting, the round sea-blue center stone shines. Small and bright, the aquamarine has a depth of color rarely seen in a stone of this size. Folklore refers to aqua as the treasure of the mermaids; this jewel shimmers with the soft cerulean shade of the ocean.
Surrounding the aqua is a halo created from twelve natural pearls. Vining out on each side are ten tiny leaves arranged in pairs and trios. Each leaf is set with small ivory colored seed pearls. The botanical vibe of the leaves blends perfectly with the oceanic tone of the gem stone center.
Believed to possess all the healing qualities of the sea and also serve as a symbol of protection, aquamarine was used as a talisman by sailors to bring good luck. Perhaps this bypass bangle was once clasped around the wrist of a mythical sea-dwelling nymph. No matter who wore it before, it can be yours now. Priced at just $1,875.00, this Victorian bangle is listed on our site. But you simply must try it on – drop by our showroom and see for yourself. ♥
