Outstanding Octohedrans--a Diamond Necklace to Make the Pharohs Proud

    
I. Gorman Jewelers may be best known for their outstanding selection of bridal jewelry, but it is certainly not all they have to offer! With such a talented and diverse group of designers, it is inevitable that I. Gorman's has developed a collection of fashion jewelry that is sure to please discerning customers of nearly any taste!

 Whether you stop by to browse their fabulous designer necklaces, stumble across that perfect pair of earrings, or hunt down a super unique bracelet, when you walk in the door at I. Gorman's, your bound to fall in love with something!

That certain piece of jewelry that I was left marveling over on my last visit was, not surprisingly, designed by an artist whom I have admired for years. Todd Reed is a self-taught metalsmith who has spent the last 15 years developing a line of fine jewelry that is coveted by fashion magazines and collectors alike. He has bucked convention by choosing work with diamonds in their natural forms and the result has been outstanding!



Todd Reed's Diamond Octohedran necklace makes an impact that even the most talented designers must strive to achieve. Its large, 8 sided natural color diamond is a fine example of symmetry and quite literally, a "beauty in-the-rough." Maybe that's what immortalized this design in my eyes. Cradled neatly by a pyramid of 18kt gold studded with colorless diamonds and hanging from a sturdy multi-linked chain, the overall effect of this necklace is one of an unquestionable raw power.

I. Gorman Jewelers Hip Rings of 2010

   
Finding hip rings starts with finding hip designers and in the DC area, the best place to find a wealth of innovative and talented jewelry designers is I. Gorman Jewelers!

While America boasts many such designers, sometimes it's worth searching outside of the box, especially when the result is discovering Gellner. An award winning German designer, Gellner is best known for his clean, tasteful forms and the trademark use of lustrous Tahitian pearls.


Yes, we said Tahitian pearls were Gellner's mainstay, but that's not holding him back from blessing us with this stellar collection of Disco Rings. He's brought fashion rings to the next level by setting a dazzling collection semi-precious colored gemstones or pearls on the newest style of urban-chic flexible jewelry quality plastic bands!

Shown above is Gellner's golden Citrine Disco Ring set in 18kt yellow gold on a champagne color band. Below is a delicious purple Amethyst Disco Ring set in 18kt white gold sporting a light pink band!


Fashion jewelry doesn't get much more fun than this, and with Gellner's Disco Ring collection, you're sure to be wearing the conversation piece of the day, without looking tacky! To see these rings and much more, visit I. Gorman Jewelers in downtown DC.
