Baubles, Bling and the Latest Things

I’m a sucker for a three-stone ring.  I love everything about them, from the simplistic yet classic design to the deeply-rooted symbolism.  For more than two hundred years, this style has captured hearts.  However, in 2001, with a little bit of marketing genius, De Beers turned this popular configuration into a worldwide phenomenon.  

“One stone for our past, one for the present, and one for our future.”

Those fourteen words spoke volumes.  One sentence payed homage to where the two of you have been, celebrated where you are and embraced where you’re going.  Who wouldn’t love that?  Most of these rings showcased three diamonds with the center stone being larger than the two side stones.  Occasionally, colored stones were added to change up the look, but the symbolism remained the same.

Featuring English hallmarks, this charming ring is the latest addition to our estate department.  One round diamond sits proudly in the center – it weighs approximately .65 carat.  It is flanked with a glorious pair of vibrant green emeralds.  Together they have a total weight of .64 carat.  By nature, emeralds are often pale in color with eye visible inclusions.  These gems are fine quality, displaying a deeply saturated kelly green hue with minimal inclusions. 

Although the ring is petite in size, the bright color palette gives it a strong presence on the hand.  Emeralds are said to bring peace, harmony and domestic bliss.  It’s an ideal choice to pair with the strong symbolism of the three stone ring.  Both of these sentiments make it a perfect choice for an anniversary or even an engagement ring.  Completing the look are three tiny diamonds nestled into each shoulder.  

Emeralds are predicted to be THE engagement stone of 2023.  Though I cringe a bit at the thought of wearing emeralds during day to day life…  I can’t help but admit that the romantic meaning is appealing.  If this three-stone is calling your name, hop on over to our website for more photos and additional details.  Priced at just $2,475.00, it’s available now.

Baubles, Bling and Transformed Things

Apparently, lighting can strike twice in the same place…  just a couple weeks ago, we shared a lovely Art Deco pendant that started out life as a ring.  Conversion jewelry has been a thing for a very long time.  The most common refreshes are pins to pendants or charms.  Because rings are the most popular article of jewelry, it’s rare that they are changed into something else.  So, we were super stoked to discover the pendant.  Imagine our absolute delight to find yet another ring conversion just a couple weeks later!  

Made from the sweetest pairing of an antique three-stone ring and a dainty link bracelet, the updated and improved bracelet is adorable.  It’s impossible to know what the reasoning was for joining these two Victorian pieces into one, but it’s tough to argue with the results.  

A step-cut natural pink topaz is fully encased within a 14-karat rosy gold bezel.  An ornate openwork pattern decorates the edge…  a series of triangles that alternate point up then point down and so on.  Set in open-back fashion, the topaz is a glorious shade of bubblegum pink.  Weighing approximately 1.50 carats, it is flanked by a pair of rose-cut diamonds, each one prong-set within a square silver setting.  These two tiny sparklers have a combined weight of .15 carat. 

Every crevice of the “ring” showcases a rich patina that has taken more than a hundred years to develop.  Perfectly petite, the ring top is joined with a 14-karat yellow gold bracelet.  Each of the twelve links is comprised of  three identical rows and one concealed box snap clasp.  Both the ring and the bracelet were made in the mid to late 1800’s.  The marriage is pure perfection and is available now for just $1,500.00.  Call us at 1-800-747-7552 or hop over to our site to make it yours today.
