Ring roundup: a passel of pearl rings.

I am loving pearl rings today. Let’s look at some!




This is the ring that got me thinking about pearls. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. It’s Victorian, made of gold, and set with three colored pearls, each flanked by rubies, emeralds or diamonds, and further diamonds on the sides. I love how the differently colored pearls are matched with differently colored gemstones. I bet this looks amazing on.


This pearl ring comes to us from Cartier, and it was made in 1925, so you can bet your buttons I love it and its Art Deco loveliness. The center cream pearl is bordered by a frame of baguette and princess-cut diamonds, mounted in platinum. The ring is signed Cartier to the bezel edge. It’s very simple, but I think it’s great. There is almost nothing this wouldn’t go with.



This is another pearl-and-gemstone combination, and a really whimsical and pretty one. It’s antique; made in France in 1905. The central round pearl is bordered by calibre cut rubies and old cut diamonds. The gemstones are all open set in platinum and gold, on a triple strand gold wire band. I love that it feels slightly floral without being cheesy or overdone.



This simple, linear beauty is the work of Tiffany & Co., circa 1905. It features one creamy pearl flanked vertically by two old-mine cut pear-shaped diamonds which weigh a total of  approximately 5.91 cts. Lovely.




To finish, here is another pearl and diamond ring. Also made in 1905, this three stone pearl and diamond cluster ring has three graduated pearls set vertically within a shaped double border of diamonds, millegrain set in platinum, with diamonds to the shoulders. This one’s more overtly formal than the Cartier pearl and diamond ring up above, but still entirely versatile in terms of what colors you could wear with it.

Now, remember: pearls are delicate. If you’re going to wear pearl rings it’s a good idea to take them off before washing your hands or touching anything that could possibly erode them, like soaps, vinegars, or other harsh substances. (Unless you’re trying to perform a particularly impressive party trick.

Different Types of Watch Indices

Notable Watch Index Styles Watches are comprised of so many intricate details from the inside out, some you may not even think of. From an aesthetic perspective, you might prefer a particular case material, dial color, or bracelet style. One element you might overlook is the watch’s indices. Indices are another way to refer to the watch’s hour markers. You may be surprised at how much different types of watch indices can impact the look of the dial. Here, we’ve compiled some common types of indices for you to consider. Arabic Numerals Arabic numerals are the most common symbols for numbers today, replacing Roman numerals. They can appear in watches in different forms. Sometimes, Arabic numerals may number each hour marker from one to twelve. Other watch designs use Arabic numerals at the three, six, nine, and twelve-o’clock positions. Occasionally, you’ll see only a single twelve-o’clock Arabic numeral marker.  In some watches, elements like a date window or chr

The 7 Biggest Jewelry Trends of the Fall 2019 Season

Image
There are different ways to be sustainable. One that was bandied about a lot this season was the notion of investing in pieces you can keep for a long time. We’re still seeing the chokers, chains, and mismatched earrings of  Spring , so plan to keep those in heavy rotation. Updates to those categories included single feathers at  Louis Vuitton  and strands of linked paper clips at  Stella McCartney . Earrings were twisted into abstract shapes (see  Sacai ,  Acne Studios ), and Calderisms continue to flourish. Adding a surreal twist was the re purposing of coat hooks and drawer pulls as hardware at  Comme des Garçons . Elsewhere, punk accoutrements like safety pins and dog collars spiked the season with some broody, dark romance . The big news, however, was old news.  Celine ’s pivot to an “old Celine” aesthetic was in line with the “lady” look that first appeared last season. Studded at  Christian Dior  and served on the half shell at  Burberry , pearls are back, but they loo
