Lets Have A Vintage Christmas!

One of the most popular jewelry styles this year for rings, pendants and earrings is the "Vintage Look"! This timeless and classic style is being seen on the red carpet in Hollywood as well as in your local town.

This style of jewelry recalls the years from 1900-1920 when "Art Deco & Art Noveau" was popular. One of the great things about this style of jewelry is simply that it never goes "out of style"...there will always be those who love it!

Everyday, I notice young ladies coming in wanting this type of jewelry, especially in engagement rings and I have just have to think that they're grandma's would be so proud.....

Jewelry in the "Vintage Look" is often charaterized by what is called micro pave' bead work setting which is a very intricate type of work performed by an expert goldsmith. There are also many diamonds found in the piece...notice the diamonds surrounding the center stone in the two pictures above! I like to think of this look as having an almost "sandy or grainy" type of look.

You'll be glad to know that this style is made in both yellow & white gold as well as platinum and palladium metals, so the choices are plenty!
