Annual Designer Showcase At I. Gorman Jewelers

  

It's that time of the year again. The time of year when tons of Washingtonians swarm the streets and line up at the doors of I. Gorman Jewelers for the event they've been waiting for all year long! Well, maybe we're being a little bit dramatic, but the truth is that the   I. Gorman Annual Designer Showcase is right around the corner and we are way excited!

We've invited eleven amazing designers from around the globe to share their entire collections. And let's be honest: champagne, jewelry and the holidays mix perfectly.

The show, which will be held Friday, December 3^rd and Saturday, December 4^th will offer designs from the dramatic and bold to the fresh and feminine. Moreover – we’ve got four new international designers featuring their collections:

• Antonio Bernardo with his ingenious, architectural designs from Spain. His celebration rings are a favorite of mine.
• Enric Majoral; modern yet feminine designs from Spain.
• Bold and avant garde jewelry by Atelier Zobel. If you love cuffs, this is the designer for you.
• Sparkling diamond pieces from Mona Taner who is joining us from the Big Apple.

Along with our newcomers, we have our faves from last year:

The Exceptional, Interchangeable Necklaces Of Marcel Roelofs At I. Gorman Jewelers

  
While Bridal Jewelry is always in demand, due to the simple fact that happy people, young and old, will always be tying the knot, sadly, the wonderful world of Fashion Jewelry often seems dependent on the economy. When outlooks on the government's or our own financial situation takes a turn for the worse, people often react by clamming up and depriving themselves of the more beautiful things in life...

I. Gorman Jewelers is here to remind you that an exceptional piece of fashion jewelry is not a discretionary purchase, in fact, if chosen carefully, it is nothing less than an extension of one's self! A well designed jewel can become as much a part of a woman's entity as her flowing hair or graceful gait, and therefore, surely not something to be sacrificed! But the power of fine jewelry is nothing to be taken lightly, and at I. Gorman's we offer designs by only the most gifted artists, who have learned to harness this power in creating gorgeous jewelry to immaculately compliment a woman or a man.

One such artist who possesses this gift, to no small extent, is German designer Marcel Roelofs. Drawing on the strong tradition of master gemstone cutters of the Idar-Oberstein region of Germany, Marcel Roelofs takes naturally inspired art to a new frontier. While he has had much success creating innovative ring and earring collections, Marcel is best known for designing some of the world's coolest fashion forward Necklaces!

Recognizable for his avant-garde use of carved gems in intricate handmade gold and platinum settings, Roelofs has developed a stunning collection of interchangeable clasp pendants that can be paired with a wide variety of neck coils, chains or strands of organic beads, to create exceptional, highly personalized necklaces.

Never a conformist, Roelof's Tanzanite and Raw Granite Bead Necklace offers a refreshingly contemporary perspective on just what can be called fine jewelry. Set in 18kt yellow gold, this unique pendant is fully interchangeable, allowing customization to suit your mood or wardrobe!

At the other end of the color spectrum, this interchangeable Orange Citrine Pendant is expertly complimented by its stainless steel multi-strand black neck coil. Set in 18kt yellow gold this dynamic pendant is perfect for the fall or winter season.

I. Gorman Jewelers is excited to offer you a selection of Marcel Roelofs interchangeable designs, that is sure to suit a diversity of tastes and styles, helping you to discover that perfect jewel that is not just an accessory, but an extension of yourself! We welcome you to visit our showroom any time, Monday through Saturday, but if you can, don't miss the chance to meet the designer himself, during our Designer Showcase event from 11am-6pm, on Friday or Saturday, December 3-4.
