Curated for Fall: A Selection What's New in Our Showroom

Ever since we settled down from our renovation I’ve been excited to finally refocus on adding to our showroom inventory. Fall is my favorite season to curate, and I’m especially excited about the trends I’m seeing for the 2018 report. I’ve added some fabulous new fine jewelry to our showroom and pulled my favorites here, if you would like to see… 

Vintage 14 Karat Gold Pineapple Pendant

I thought this pineapple was just so fun, I had to have it for our shop. Since pineapples symbolize hospitality, I thought it would make a perfect, special gift for that someone who’s always ready to host guests and never seems to have an empty fridge. We only have one and you get to select the chain to go with it so that it’s just right for her.$194 (plus your choice of chain) 

Vintage 14 Karat Gold Rope Hoops

Good news: the hoop trend is definitely, absolutely sticking around for fall. I sourced this vintage pair in 14 karat yellow gold because I particularly loved the rope detailing. This extra “something” gives it just enough dimension to carry into the winter months without being lost in the layers of scarves and turtlenecks we will soon be sporting. We have one pair in our showroom and they’re perfectly lightweight and perfectly wearable.$400, 14k yellow gold 

Diamond X-Bow Studs

Sweet little studs are a specialty of ours and these hit the mark perfectly. Set in 14 karat white gold and set with the sparkliest petite diamonds, these would make the perfect daily-wear addition that you could easily transition from day to night without a second thought. These aren’t quite vintage but they are unique in our shop -- we only sourced one pair -- so if things sing to you, reserve them today!$475, featuring eight single cut diamonds with a total carat weight of 0.05ctw, set in 14k white gold  

Vintage Citrine and Diamond Cocktail Ring

In my humble opinion, everyone should have at least one simply fabulous, over-the-top piece of jewelry that they can break out for special occasions (or for getting coffee in sweats because who cares). I love this citrine and diamond option because it’s neutral enough to go with many gowns (or, uh, sweats) and the citrine is a lovely shade of slightly peachy yellow, as opposed to other citrines I’ve seen which veer more lemon-y. Set in 14 karat yellow gold, we only have one like this so if it’s perfect for you (or someone you know) -- move fast.$624, featuring a 12mm round checkerboard faceted citrine flanked by 6 single-cut diamonds (total carat weight of diamonds 0.02ctw) and set in 14k yellow gold 

Vintage 14 Karat Gold Freeform Earrings

Another major trend I’ve been noticing for fall is bold, geometric earrings that have beautiful curve and shape. I sourced these vintage 14 karat gold earrings with just this in mind and I have to say: they are stunning in person. I have already paired them with a black shirt and a ponytail and they elevated my look from about a five to closer to a nine (I needed lipstick to make it a 10). We have one pair in our showroom so if you’re looking for a statement earring no one else will have, this is it.$770, 14k yellow gold 

Customizable Moonstone and Diamond Earrings

These are a personal favorite of mine. I created these in 14 karat rose gold and set them with the most lovely moonstones and diamonds to create a beautifully feminine pair of studs that you can wear day-to-night. If this combination isn’t quite your taste, ask me about how to customize a pair of your own; we have also featured these in yellow gold with jade and can accommodate virtually any combination you like.$1,003, as shown in 14k yellow gold set with cabochon moonstones and diamonds 

Alx&Co.-Designed Diamond Drop Wrap in 14k White Gold

This necklace is stunning in person. We designed these diamond drops to brilliantly sparkle with every move you make and the diamonds are set front and back so there’s never a dull moment no matter how they lay. We added this extra-long beaded chain so that you can wrap it, loop it, or hang it any way you please. Best of all? It’s customizable, so if sapphires or rubies are more your thing, let us know. We’ll make one just for you.$2,900 as shown in 14k white gold, set with diamonds
