Mike & Megan

These two great customers from Cambridge were generous enough to share some lovely pics from their recent nuptials. Not only do these pictures glow with love but they also show off the distinct & undeniable style of these two! The grooms ring is our wide milgrain band in 14k yellow gold and the bride's an Edwardian white gold filigree ring with beautiful old euro cut diamonds. After coveting our jewelers loupe in the store, they bought one of their own to bring to the wedding so guests could appreciate the details of the jewelry. The pins are from us & quite special as well - his a victorian sword brooch (*with functional sword) & hers a cupid pin that they swapped so they were each wearing it at different points of their wedding weekend. Wishing them both a lifetime of health & happiness!

    Emerald Spring

    If there is one stone that evokes all the brightness & light of Spring it would have to be emeralds. We had two orders for large carat emerald engagement rings that are so beautiful we had to share them. The ring pictured at top features an incredible 2 ct (!) oval emerald alongside hand made diamond leaves at either side. The 14k yellow gold sets of the green brilliantly. The ring below is a 1 ct 'emerald cut' emerald in a hand made bezel alongside two sparkling antique diamonds. It featured a florentine finish which we hadn't gotten to yet when the picture was taken but..you get the idea. Stunning!

    Vermont Wedding

    A shoot from our friend Sandra Costello. Hopefully this will counteract the endless cold snap here in the Northeast with warm feelings of Summer in Vermont! The bride is wearing our jewelry, thanks to Vermont Vows for the tip off - check it on their blog here.

    September Wedding

    Hard to imagine a more picturesque scene than a newlywed's stroll across the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne, Mass. This lovely couple was married in September & the bride was generous enough to provide this note along with the pictures : ' We purchased my engagement ring in your Noho store (the blue topaz in antique setting) in August 2013 (I had my eye on it for months before), and we also purchased the dot ring for my wedding band.  I wore a pair of your pearls on the big day as well.  I love your jewelry!'. We are honored! Big thanks to them both for letting us share this.

    July Wedding

    This beautiful & stylish couple are great customers (& people) who were nice enough to share some shots from their picturesque July wedding. It was an intimate family affair, the bride wore a gorgeous dress that she made by hand (!) & the groom - upping the ante for grooms everywhere - wore a vintage snake pin on his lapel that he purchased from our Cambridge shop. They have 3 rings from us (see pics below) and she wore our pearl & gold vine earrings. We feel honored!

    June Wedding

    There's nothing like a Summer wedding. The world is lush, the air scented with flowers in bloom & (hopefully) the sun is shining. This beautiful bride, a wonderful client of ours, generously sent these pictures of her special day. In addition to making her ring we also made the lovely Silver & Pearl necklace that compliments her dress so nicely. Wishing them a lifetime of health & happiness!

    September Wedding

    The greatest rewards are sometimes in the smallest details. We just got this really nice note from a lovely couple whose wedding bands we made. They were married in September, her ring is our branch band (pictured below). They were nice to enough to send a picture from what looks to have been a magical day..


    Did I ever write and express how much I love my beautiful wedding ring? (We got married in September)

    I tried on perhaps two rings - here and there - before we came across your store while visiting Boston.  I didn't need to try on another one.  

    Thank you again - the ring is a joy to wear!

    Best,
    Molly

    Engagement Rings, Day 2

    Another incredible vintage ring for you today! This one just came into the shop. Here we have a beautiful Art Deco ring in 18k white gold featuring a stunning center diamond of about half a carat. The two side marquis diamonds feature some gorgeous milgrain detailing around them. This ring offers a tiered profile which adds beautiful lines to the design & makes the sparkle of the stones just pop. This is a great example of an antique ring that's totally classic yet retains a distinctly modern edge some 100 years on from when it was made.

    Engagement Rings, Day 1

    With flowers abloom and Spring in full swing - wedding season is officially upon us! To celebrate this season of commitments we are showcasing 7 days of some of our favorite engagement rings (and maybe a few wedding bands thrown in for good measure). For Day 1 we've got one of the largest diamonds we've ever had in the shop! A truly incredible 1 carat trans-euro cut diamond in a gorgeous Art Deco platinum ring. This stunning ring has it all - brilliance and bling in a delicate, streamlined setting that looks incredible on any finger.

    Engagement Rings, Day 5

     
    We bring our engagement rings posts to a close this week with one of our own designs. Probably our best selling ring - the dearly adored Hollin Wheat Band featuring an antique mine cut diamond with gorgeous clarity & color. This ring is an instant classic in that it updates it's vintage inspiration ever so slightly with it's streamlined appeal and offers something that's hard to find - a beauty that's both timeless and utterly wearable.

    Fall Wedding

    In an effort to brighten up these cold, dark days it seems like the perfect time to look back on warmer months when love filled the air. Our friend Katy was generous enough to share some pictures from her wedding this past October in upstate New York.  Rebekah worked closely with she & her husband on their rings & helped adorn her with necklace & earrings as well. She looked so beautiful! Most of these pics were shot by the groom's sister, whose work you can see here.

    Art Deco Wedding Bands

    Wedding season is upon us! We love diamond Art Deco wedding bands because they can compliment an engagement ring or stand on their own as well, such as this stunning 14k white gold band with seven beautiful diamonds!

    Wedding Blog Feature!


    So this summer we had the privilege of being in a "mock-wedding" photo shoot with Sandra Costello at Studio SMC, a fantastic photographer from the Pioneer Valley in Western Massachusetts. We supplied all of the jewelry for the shoot, and then she went around to various other vendors in the area and created a beautiful pseudo wedding in a great chic style that is modern and vintage all at the same time. Well, the photo shoot is being published on the blog Style Me Pretty, a very well known bridal blog, which has a section that specifically features Massachusetts Weddings! Check out the blog post here, and see all of the beautiful photos that went along with it! Thanks to Sandra for including us in such a fun and unique project!!

    Art Deco Rings

    The Art Deco Period was a design movement that began in Paris during the roaring 1920s and quickly spread internationally, continuing on into the 1930s. Art Deco jewelry is characterized by bold, modern design and streamlined, angular geometric shapes. Platinum and white gold were commonly used metals. We love Art Deco rings because they are so elegant and timeless. Featured below are two of our favorite rings in the store right now: A platinum engagement ring with two marquis diamonds on either side of the center stone and a stunning 14K white diamond band.

    Signature Rings: Wheat Band



    One of the most enjoyable aspects of making custom wedding rings is seeing different variations on one of our signature designs. Recently we made this ring in 14k white gold with a stunning diamond set into our wheat band, the ring is both wearable and impressive. Congratulations to the lucky couple!

    New (to us) Vintage Cluster Rings

    We just got three of the most unique cluster rings we have ever had!
    This first one is 14k White gold, with 2mm diamonds on the outside and a 3mm diamond in the center of the cluster. It is an Art Deco ring and these diamonds are very large in comparison to most diamonds used in cluster rings.

    This second ring is a square cluster ring! The diamonds are all approximately 2mm, round diamonds set into a square setting. The setting is 14k White gold and the shank is 14k Yellow gold.

    This last ring is the smallest but is definitely very unique. The diamonds on the outside are all about 1mm and it has a beautiful, light colored sapphire in the center. The shank is 14k Yellow gold and the setting is Platinum. There is also a lot of beading around the smaller diamonds, adding a lot of texture to the setting.
