Thistle and Bee Amethyst Dangle Earrings

Nancy,

I wanted to let you know that the earrings are just beautiful.  Thanks again for all your help.

As I enter the historic Trinity Building at 111 Broadway, I am struck with awe with the architect of this landmark building. The lobby is designed in elaborate, old world charm and makes me feel so special to work in this beautiful atmosphere.  Our showroom has high ceilings with huge stained glass windows that overlooks the Trinity Church Courtyard. Watching the seasons change in this park-like setting has been breathtaking! Over the last few weeks,  I reconfirmed my belief that Spring is definitely my favorite season when the trees and flowers were ablaze in color!

The spotlight is definitely on Lower Manhattan these days. On a daily basis, tourists walk through the Trinity Church Courtyard or stop to eat lunch in this peaceful environment.  Many visitors of the city come downtown to view the 911 Memorial, the atrium in the Financial Center or hop on the Staten Island Ferry for one of the best views of the Statue of Liberty. We invite you to come into the Trinity Building as a tourist attraction and see its beautiful architect. For sports fans, the Heisman Trophy is on view at the rear of the lobby.

While in the building,you are welcome to browse our showroom to view excellent timepieces from Raymond Weil, especially their new 88 Rue du Rhone collection, as well as Baume Mercier and Tag Heuer. If you plan to get married in New York,  we offer a large selection of engagement and bridal jewelry to fit your budget! You may also want to pick up a gold charm that represents your favorite New York site as a keepsake memento! 

We look forward to meeting you and providing you with watches, gold charms or wedding bands or another piece of jewelry to take home symbolizing your memorable trip.  Shop here for more of what you love … for less!

The Great Gatsby has been adorning our subway stations, magazines and has been causing a buzz with its release on the big screen this month.  Everyone has been talking about the film but even before seeing it, one thing has been apparent … the jewelry is going to leave us looking for ways to recreate it…but maybe a little cheaper!

The jewelry for the film was designed by costume designer Catherine Martin, and the 13 show-stopping 1920′s inspired period pieces were created to be known as the Ziegfeld Collection – a collaboration with jewelry brand Tiffany & Co.

There are few films that can boast that the jewelry is inspiring trends,  but The Great Gatsby Collection Savoy Headpiece ($200,000) is something that we predict will feature in bridal trends for the summer.

So how can you create your own Great Gatsby inspired look?  There are several simple ways.

PEARLS, they are used throughout the film to create a soft balance against the diamonds and add a 1920′s edge. Earrings featured in the film, like these Honora Drop Pearl Earrings, are easy to wear and can be used night or day to finish off your outfit.

Equally, a Honora Freshwater Pearl and Onyx Cuff Bracelet, which sits delicately covering your wrist, can bring a look together adding that final statement.

DIAMONDS AND GEMS are seen in rings of different colors and appear in the Great Gatsby Collection.  Two that we love to use to recreate the look are a Color Story Manhattan Pave Ring and an Armadani Blue Sapphire and Diamond Pave Mosaic Ring.  How can you say no to these exquisite rings?

1920′s ONE OF A KIND PIECES – You can’t miss out on our constantly updated Antique and Estate Collection of jewelry – several pieces date back to the 1920′s!  These are perfect for those who love to dress up and  want to accurately reflect history.  You will confidently be able to say that you have bought a piece of jewelry from the correct era – which is very on trend!

Be Inspired and fall in love with the 1920′s.

“Can’t repeat the past?…Why of course you can!”

So what can you wear to make your friends green with envy about your birthstone?  We have a couple of great ideas that we want to share with you, which can be worn separately or would look INCREDIBLE together:

I can speak of this from experience, after choosing to have my great grandmothers diamonds reset into what is now my engagement ring.  It was a treasured moment when I could marry together my new life with my husband, with my history and the diamonds that have been passed down through four generations.

It’s never an easy decision to dismantle a family ring, or piece of jewelry, but to think that you are turning it into a new ring that will hopefully be passed down again through more generations, makes it all worthwhile. The great thing is that you already have your diamonds or gemstones which will never change and then it is just a matter of choosing a setting that works for you or designing one for the jeweler you are working with to custom make.

This is the fun part because you can choose a setting you love, the metal you want and possibly other gemstones to complement the antique gems. This will give you a sense of excitement because you are breathing new life back into gems from the past.

DeNatale Jewelers are experts in redesigning jewelry.  We regularly work with estate items and custom engagement rings to give you peace of mind.  We will make your lineage proud and give you a reminder everyday of your past and future coming together.

This is the time to come in to our Lower Manhattan showroom and discuss how we can make this a reality. Feel free to contact us with your questions. We look forward to custom designing your heirloom piece into a setting you will love!

This jewelry offers an opportunity to gently witness faith to others while being fashionable too! April, May and June are traditionally popular months for Communions, Confirmations and Graduations. So who in your life is celebrating an occasion deserving a piece of fashion jewelry worthy of  your love and spirit? We welcome you to view our collection of symbolic and religious jewelry on our website.  Even better, we would enjoy meeting you in person at our showroom, located in Lower Manhattan adjacent to Trinity Church.

A Link Diamond Opera Necklace

Dear Jim,

Many thanks for making this purchase and exchange as painless as possible …. all except writing of the check!

With best wishes,

Janet – VA

The Diamond Opera Necklace is set with 179 Forevermark diamonds. It is a 16″ and an 18″ necklace combined to form the long, opera length, 36″ necklace. It separates so you can wear it three different ways – long, stacked or a single strand.

Thanks again for the fine work on Linda’s necklace. She enjoys wearing it and I think it looks great! We will be in this summer to get a little heavier chain. Love your new showroom. You now have a space as classy as the employees and your merchandise!
