Colors of Summer

Now that Summer is in full swing, many of us will be looking for "beachy" designs in natural materials including coral, quartz and gold. Natural designs that evoke the mystery of the sea in a bright red coral remind us of beach side vacations of the past. A sterling silver ring featuring a muted green quartz -- that looks as natural and fresh as a piece of sea glass found on the beach -- is the perfect piece for long walks at sunset...A simple gold sun pendant on a black silk cord allows us to enjoy the beautiful golden rays no matter what the real weather is like!

Band Rings

Band style rings have long been popular for wedding bands and as the ring style of choice for men. But now women are jumping on the "Band ring band-wagon" because of the versatility and simplicity of this enduring style. Band rings allow the wearer to be their own designer, to stack as many or as few as they like, in pure metal designs or designs featuring an array of colored gemstones. Bands can also be worn with solitaires or other ring designs, and not just for bridal designs mind you. Bands are a versatile addition to every jewelry wardrobe.
