How can you not love this color...EMERALD



EMERALD GREEN is having its moment in the spotlight for fall...
So I have been playing around with EMERALD GREEN today (by special request...) and it certainly seems to be the color of fall... everyone added this color into their mix during the recent DALLAS Gift Market and with good reason: it is stunning, BOLD, and kind of a "NEW-OLD FRIEND," a classic that suddenly looks fresh again...

What do you think?....   Mix and match any of my strand designs to create single strands, doubles, triples, four or five strand styles.  Any of them can be done at any length. (16-17" will fit standard on these, but consider doing one (or all four) of them in longer lengths of 32"+)

AMETHYSTS Speak Louder Than Words...

"Excuse me... did you say something?  I couldn't hear you over your earrings...."  Well if these earrings don't make a STATEMENT, nothing will.  PERIOD.  These are STUNNING>  

Tons of hand-set, gem-quality light purple amethyst stones, each surrounded by a touch of gold and complimented with rows of pave-set crystals set in black sterling.  Measure a MASSIVE 3 1/2 inches from top to bottom.  399.00

If you love the style, but would like to do it in another gem stone color (smoky topaz, garnet, peridot, tourmaline, etc.), just let me know.  I can do custom orders on this style (6-8 weeks delivery).

TAKING IN THE FALL COLORS


METALLIC DRUSY BANGLES

I am thinking about introducing these DRUSY BANGLES for fall.  I love the drusy for the NEW METALLICS idea (i.e. the recent surge of interest in rose gold, etc.) and at the same time, it compliments the NEW DIAMONDS look (diamond slices, rose-cuts, etc.).  I have a very limited little group of these available now for anyone who wants to preview them.  They are 59.00 per bangle.
