PEARLS WITH BEAUTIFUL COLOR

It used to be that pearls were always worn as strands to accent a beautiful neckline or adorn a bride. Later, diamonds were added and their brilliance made the pearls glow. One of my favorite books on gems says that according to an ancient Chinese legend, the moon holds the power to create pearls, instilling them with its celestial glow and mystery. The latest trend in pearls is showing them with colored gemstones. Bright, beautiful colors glow along with the vibrant luster of the pearls and send the wearer sparkling through the night. Bold purples, deep greens, and bright blues look incredible with pearls. If you are tired of the way your pearls look, bring them in and we will add some sparkle to them.

HOT PINKS

Everyone still loves pink! The continued craze over pink is still hot along with a variety of lovely pastel colors. Greens have come in a close second and the August birthstone, peridot, is being set surrounded by diamonds in some fabulous new mountings by some of the best jewelry designers in the country. Flowers and nature in jewelry are still popping up everywhere from watches to rings and they look great accented by lovely colored gemstones, giving them a real natural feeling.

CLASSY DANGLES

The long, elegant look of dangle earrings is even more stunning when the dangles are made of bright, faceted gemstones. Blue, purples and oranges look great with diamonds in a long earring. Get your colored gemstone earrings out of the drawers and wear them proudly this spring!
