Fall is a smart time to check the prongs on your most-worn rings. 💍

Press gently around each stone with a fingernail. If anything shifts or snags fabric, bring it in before a stone is lost.

There is something about the first crisp fall day that makes a deep green emerald or a rich sapphire feel absolutely right. 🍂

Cooler skies, warmer gems. And always, the absolutely fabulous brilliance of natural diamonds. We are very okay with this. 💙

Not all gemstones are created equal. 💎

Color, clarity, cut, and origin all shape what a stone is truly worth.

Inheriting a piece of jewelry and not sure what you have? 🔷

Here is how to approach it:

1. Note the metal color and any stamps inside the band or on the clasp
2. Look for hallmarks like 14K, 18K, or PT for platinum
3. Bring it in for a verbal assessment before assuming its value. This service is available for antique and estate pieces.(Flat hourly fee, by appointment)

Knowing what you own is the first step to deciding what to do with it. ✨

Older jewelry holds memories, but the setting or style may no longer reflect who you are today. ✨
