6. Whimsical Themed Necklaces ~ Make your bridesmaid’s gifts fun and filled with personality…give them a diamond butterfly, palm trees, four leaf clovers, circles of life, etc…..Pick whichever one suits your crew’s personality best! Roberto Coin’s Tiny Treasures collection is the place to start.

Mattioli Samarcanda Necklace and Bracelet is our hot pick for the day. And to be perfectly honest, this collection did not wow me when it first came in and I just saw it laying in our cases. However, when I saw it on one the owners I was FLOORED ! Mrs. Dunn modeled this gorgeous necklace at one of the many charity events our company is involved in. This designer’s creations really come alive as soon as you put them on!

I could not do just do the gold and diamond necklace without the bracelet! They just look so great together! These pieces are from the Italian jewelry designer Mattioli from his Samarcanda collection. Since 1970 Mattioli has perfected the fusion of passion and ultra-sophisticated Italian style.
This necklace and matching bracelet are soooo pretty! Lots of yellow gold tear drop shapes with DIAMONDS….girls, how can you lose with that? You can’t!

For more Mattioli collection shop at www.jrdunn.com!

Happy Shopping!

John Hardy Palu Sautoir - Hey guys, I was shopping for some new perfume on the Elizabeth Arden website when I ran across Catherine Zeta-Jones wearing what looks to be a John Hardy Palu Sautoir necklace in the ad. You can see the Catherine’s picture much better in this months Vogue magazine. I love the way she is wearing the necklace layered longer, I think she has a two or three on. This John Hardy necklace is made of sterling silver with 22k hammered gold sections….the subtle accents of gold give the necklace just the right touch of warmth!

Happy Shopping!
