Pick of the Week – Volume 65

Baubles and Bling with Unbelievable Pricing

Today wraps up the biggest shopping weekend of the year.  It’s Cyber Monday.  If you love to shop from the privacy of your own home, in your jammies with coffee and snacks at the ready – this day is for you.  I am a Black Friday girl; in fact, it’s part of the Thanksgiving tradition in my family.  When my boys were small and writing letters to Santa, I loved searching the flyers that came in the mail.  Together with my mom and my sisters, we would plan out our day making sure to procure each chosen item on our lists.  Now that my kids are grown, I still love Black Friday shopping, but it’s more about spending time with my family than sales.  Though I am working today, I’m sure I’ll find a little time to scroll through Amazon deals on my phone… just in case something catches my eye.  Speaking of eye candy, this ring is a true showstopper.

 

The first time we shared it, we paired it with the filigree ring shown above (on the left).  While the filigree ring sold right away, this one is still here.  Today, for Cyber Monday, we are offering it at a new price.  It’s hard to believe that we’ve had this striking beauty for more than six years.  Sleek and modern, it’s made from platinum.  Durable and strong, this naturally occuring white metal is the ideal complement to the soft pink hue of the center stone.  Taking the shape of an elongated rectangle, this pale pink tourmaline showcases an unusual cutting technique.  The curved, faceted top creates a dance of light as it moves.  Weighing 3.40 carats, this gemstone shines.

Situated to the left and right of the center stone are four crisscut diamonds.  This unique cutting style is a variation of the emerald cut.  Adding more facets, it has superior fire and brilliance.  Combined, these diamonds offer.55 carat of sparkle.  It’s one of our favorite rings, and gets a ton of attention from customers…  both in the store and online.  Six years later, and I can’t help but wonder why we still have it.  The only objection that makes any sense is that the price has put it just out of reach.  Today, for Cyber Monday, we’re going to remedy that problem.  Previously priced at $6,500.00, we are now offering it for just $5,000.00!  If you’ve had your eye on this pretty piece, hop on over to our site and add it to your cart to take advantage of those Cyber Monday savings!

Pick of the Week – Volume 59

Baubles and Bling with Unbelievable Pricing

Art Deco was arguably the most innovative, opulent and stylistically advanced period of the last two hundred years.  The look was elaborate; geometric designs overflowing with diamonds accented with tiny pops of color.  It was architectural and elegant, capturing hearts for generations.  Art Deco began to emerge in 1915 and continued into the mid-late 1930’s.  

The Art Deco style has influenced every period since.  In fact, it is the most copied design aesthetic of the modern era.  Entire companies have been founded exclusively on Art Deco-inspired jewelry and countless others offer individual lines infused with 1930’s panache.  Perhaps the most successful modern maker of Art Deco-inspired jewelry is Beverley K. 

Founded in 1999, Beverley K creates graceful and feminine jewelry that captures a perfect harmonious balance gems and precious metals.  At Joden, we often have a piece or two of Beverley K pizzazz sprinkled throughout the store. 

Today we are featuring one of our favorites.  This 18-karat white gold beauty is striking from every angle.  Flattering the finger, the overall shape is elongated and narrow – it’s a miniature sculpture.  The ends are capped with a pair of bullet-cut vivid blue sapphires.  Eight additional French-cut sapphires span the center of the ring, in total, the sapphires have a combined weight of 1.92 carats.  

Twenty-six diamonds accent the ornate geometric design.  These diamonds offer .42 carat of sparkle.  Overall, the design is sleek, sophisticated and totally Art Deco.  This ring is still active in the Beverley K line, it has been featured on our website for $4,700.00.  It’s a classic example of everything being right about the piece…  which makes me wonder why we still have it.

It must be the price.  Let’s fix that!  Now a Pick of the Week – this Beverley K stunner is available for just $3,750.00.  If you’ve had your eye on it – now is the time to make it yours.

Baubles and Bling with Unbelievable Pricing

I first introduced this ring four years ago in the 73rd edition of “Joe’s Special Box“.  I can’t believe that it’s still here.  I love it just as much now as I did then for all of the same reasons…

  • It’s constructed entirely of platinum, the queen of the white metals (in my opinion).  It ages with a lovely patina that softens the overall look, but can be polished to a pristine shine at any time.  
  • The ring is made in the shape of a flower, offering an oval-shaped spray of sixteen diamond set petals.  Those on the northern and southern tips of the flower are set with three diamonds each while those on the east and west sides are set with just two Old Mind Cut diamonds each.  In total, these diamonds have a combined weight of approximately 1.00 carat.
  • Nestled in the middle of the blossom is one round brilliant diamond.  Although it may not be the original center stone, it’s perfect.  Weighing approximately .80 carat, it’s a true beauty.

I’m a sucker for a flower ring, and this is no exception.  The petals measure an impressive 16mm from very top to the bottom tip while the triple-wire shank is delicate.  Together, it’s an unbeatable combination, managing to be visually striking and yet dainty at the same time.  I love the softly scalloped edge created by the outline of the petals.  Though it’s a small detail, it adds to the ambiance of the ring.  I can’t help but wonder – “Why is this ring still here?”

Both times Dana has photographed it, she truly captured the magic of the ring.  The only reason I can think for why this lovely creation hasn’t sold would be the price…  so, we decided to do something about that!  Originally priced at $4400.00 (Not a bad price, I’d like to add), this unique find has a new and unbelievable price.  It’s the featured Pick of the Week, and you can find it on our site for just $3,450.00!  And remember, we also offer six-month layaway and interest-free financing!  There are no excuses now – this ring is waiting for you.  ♥
