Jeweled Legacy

Your most cherished pieces of jewelry are more than just adornments; they are items that have emotional value for you and bring back certain memories. These are the pieces that you hold in the highest regard Vintage Jewelry For this reason, it can be rather disheartening if one of your beloved necklaces breaks or if the clasp on one of your bracelets starts to come undone over time. This could also be the case if the clasp on one of your rings becomes unfastened.

We are relieved to find that a significant number of these problems have straightforward resolutions; all that is required of us is to adhere to a routine cleaning and inspection schedule. The following is a list of some of the most common types of jewelry repair that we here at our company are able to conduct for our customers:

Flat Prongs

In prong settings, the "claws" that are used to secure gemstones in place are called prongs, and they are microscopic "claws" made of metal. Gemstones are held in place with the help of these settings. It's possible that the prongs on a tool will naturally wear down over time, which will cause them to become flatter as a result. Because of this, it is possible for your gem to become entangled in your clothing or hair, and over time, the prong may become weaker, increasing the possibility that it would shatter. Additionally, as a result of this, it is possible for your gem to become damaged.

If you have a prong that has "pancaked," which means that it has worn down to the point where it is as flat as a pancake, our jeweler in Santa Barbara may fix it by "re-tipping" the prong with fresh metal. This is a term that is used to describe a prong that has worn down to the point where it is as flat as a pancake. The term "pancaked" refers to something that has been worn down until it is as flat as a pancake. In order to accomplish this, you will need to remove a section of the old prong head, roll it up, heat it until it melts into place, and then solder the new tip onto the old one. This will allow you to get the desired result.

If the prong on your ring is flat, you need to make it a habit to examine it with a magnifying glass or a loupe on a regular basis to ensure that it is not becoming loose. This is especially important if you wear your ring frequently Antique Jewelry At the absolute least, you should examine your ring once every six months; however, you should perform this task more frequently if you wear it on a regular basis. You really ought to do this at the very least once every three months. Keeping up with this routine maintenance will help prevent the stones from becoming damaged or misplaced, as well as snagging and loosening of the stones. Keeping up with this routine maintenance will also help prevent snagging. Performing this basic maintenance on a consistent basis will also assist in reducing the risk of snagging.

Loose Stones

Not only are loose gemstones less expensive than those that are already set in a piece of jewelry, but the buyer of loose gemstones also has the option to choose the specific gemstone that they want to use in their jewelry when they acquire loose gemstones. This is an advantage over purchasing gemstones that are already set in jewelry. It is also feasible to find substitutes for gemstones like morganite, which has been described as having a look that is quite comparable to that of a diamond. People who want something that sparkles like a diamond but don't want to pay the high price tag that comes along with it are suitable candidates for purchasing morganite as an alternative.

When it comes to mending stones that have become dislodged, the first step that needs to be taken is to remove any mortar from the stone by using a stiff synthetic brush or wire brush and compressed air. This is the first step that has to be taken when it comes to mending stones that have become detached. When it comes to fixing stones that have become dislodged, this is the first step in the process. After this, you may rapidly restore the loose stones to their original placements by using a caulk gun that has been loaded with masonry glue. The instructions for using the adhesive indicate that it must be spread on in the form of beads, and those instructions are included on the container for the product.

A variety of ring types, such as the halo type, combine a multitude of stones either around the centerpiece stone or going down the sides or shoulders of the mounting. One example of this is the ring style known as "halo." A ring design known as a halo type is a good illustration of this concept. It is required to do routine maintenance and inspections on a more frequent basis in order to assist in the prevention or reduction of concerns linked to loose stone. This is necessary because of the nature of this style of building.

Broken Clasps

The utilization of a jewelry clasp is an absolute requirement if one is interested in preserving the structural integrity of a necklace or bracelet that is joined to another piece of jewelry. A jeweler should not have too much trouble replacing the component, regardless of whether it is a straightforward spring-ring or a more complex lobster clasp. If the chain of your most beloved necklace or bracelet breaks, the clasp should be repaired or replaced as quickly as possible after the break has taken place. When you wear it, this will assist in avoiding the piece from slipping off, and when your ring is too large, this will assist in preventing the piece from becoming trapped within your ring.

A broken box clasp can be easily fixed in a couple of different ways: with a dab of glue, by releasing the flat component that holds the safety latch back into form, and then by rebending the safety latch itself. Both of these choices are straightforward and can be put into action in a very short amount of time. In a similar vein, crimp beads, which were previously used to keep a beaded necklace together in the event that it tore or broke, are generally replaceable in the event that the necklace suffered from one of these concerns. Crimp beads were originally used to keep a beaded necklace together in the event that it tore or broke.

Even though pearl restringing is one of the most common services performed by jewelers, the most of them also have experience repairing a wide variety of other types of jewelry. Even though pearl restringing is one of the most common services performed by jewelers. These jewelry specialists are more than capable of repairing your treasures in any way that you may require them to be restored, from resetting larger diamonds that have been chipped to replacing damaged clasps on jewelry items. They can also restore your treasures in any way that you may require them to be restored.

Modifications Carried Out on the Jewelry

A type of failure that is known as metal fatigue can occur when the individual components or connections of a metal object are subjected to cyclic forces that generate fluctuating stresses. This can bring to the breakdown of the metal object. It's possible for the connections or components of a metal object to experience metal fatigue. This could be the result of changes in the operational settings or external causes such as variations in temperature, vibration, or corrosion, for example. Another possibility is that the settings themselves have been changed. There is also the potential that the actual settings themselves have been altered. The opening and closing of small cracks over the course of time is another element that can contribute to metal fatigue. This process can also be triggered by metal fatigue. These fissures may, over the course of time, develop into a broken fracture surface that is formed of two distinct zones, one of which is smooth and the other of which is rough. This surface may be the result of the evolution of a broken fracture.

Metal fatigue can be avoided by meticulously engineering the component parts that are at issue so that they have a "stress safety envelope." The start of metal fatigue will be avoided as a result of this action. This can be accomplished by first calculating the maximum tensile strength and yield stress of a given material, and then counting the number of cycles the material can go through without breaking down due to fatigue. This process can be repeated as many times as necessary to achieve the desired result. Before the material begins to degrade, this is the maximum number of cycles it can go through. After then, the design of the component is altered in order to guarantee that the local stresses will continue to be lower than the value that has been calculated. This is done in order to prevent the component from failing. If a metal object is constructed with stress raisers such as notches, holes, and keyways, its fatigue life may be cut shorter than it otherwise would be. This is due to the fact that these features add more weight to the component that must support it. Because of the potential for greater shear stress, this is one of the things that has the potential to take place.

Class Morganite

Read the First Chapter or Read Other things in other places with the help of this

Life feels faster since getting a tour of the college, despite Rowan not really doing a lot, the week and a half have seemed to just fly by.

Although the world around them seemed stressed, Indigo especially. Everything was secretive and hidden in whispers, Indigo was hiding in her home library carrying around a notepad or her laptop and being oddly quiet. It was or rather seemed to be all for the new year’s orientation.

Casper and Sloan came to visit, during the past week and half, mostly to see how Rowan was doing, but there was a moment where Sloan and Indigo stepped outside and talked for a rather long time. It felt odd, not knowing what was really going on, but it was also none of Rowan’s business.

Today is no different from the recent oddness, “What’s with the outfit?” the teen asked, walking in the foyer of Indigo’s home, seeing the woman dressed in a very formal outfit.

She’s in a floor-length turtleneck dress with an attached long cape, all white with golden accents. All with the addition of gold and expensive jewelry from her own personal collection.

“These are outfitting that college staff and council members have to wear to events and when we have meetings,” Indigo answered, she sounded tired which complemented the bags under her eyes.

“I thought the college’s colors were red and brown,” Rowan pondered.

“I have wondered the same thing,” Calvin chuckled, walking into the room, wearing an outfit that is more of the same, yet more masculine, more of a 3-piece white suit with a large suit coat, “As far as I know it’s just tradition.”

“Damn it,” Indigo muttered, before turning from the mirror she was in front of to look at Calvin, “Grenade, can you go get my necklace, please?”

He smiled at her, holding up her necklace, that black chained pendant with a heart-shaped ruby stone, “Already have it,” he replied as he took a place behind her, and latched her necklace around her neck.

“What’s so important about that necklace?” Rowan asked innocently, “You’re never without it.”

Indigo smiled, “It was a gift from my parents, but it also symbolizes my right in my family home,” she answered, “Child of house ruby, the stone that represents the Corals family who are descended from France.”

“All the “high nobility” houses are symbolized by gemstones, just like the classes,” Calvin explained, when Rowan looked at them confused.

“Oh, speaking of necklaces!” Indigo interjected before running off and reentering the room a few moments later, “I found this among some more of your mother’s things I had hidden away,” she started, looking down at an item in her hands, “You can have all the stuff I re-found, most of it is books and such- anyway! I want to give you this now.”

The French woman handed Rowan a velvet necklace box, watching them mostly excitedly open revealing a golden necklace, with a gold-plated circular ornament hanging from it, with a bouquet of marigolds engraved on the adornment, “It was a gift from your father to your mother, and it’s only right that you have it now.”

“Thank you,” Rowan croaked, “Thank you so much.”

The two of them shared a hug, “We need to get going,” Indigo mentioned.

Rowan and Calvin nodded before leaving their home and setting off to the college. The campus was full, not only of students, but eccentric staff members, all adorned in similar formal white and gold outfits. Stopping at the auditorium doors, fully open showcase many booths for the club, class, and pathway exhibit part of the orientation.

“We’ve got to split, kid. Why don’t you go look at the exhibits?” Calvin commented, “Maybe even make a friend or two?”

“I don’t see that happening,” Rowan retorted with a sad chuckle, "People and I don't really mix well."

“Try anyway, jellyfish,” Indigo yawned in a sad tone before she and Calvin walked out of view.

The college’s auditorium is full of a large range of unique individuals. Some looked human – whether they were or not was a different story – others were not of the human variety, that much was obvious by their insect, animal, arachnid, or “monster” appearances. Everyone is at booths or socializing, seeing friends after the winter break, or learning about the college and one of its three pathways.

It’s all a bit overwhelming.

“Maverick, look look, over there! Isn’t that who was with Calvin the other day?”

“I think so… they look lost.”

“Why don’t we go say hi.”

“Georgia, I don’t know if that is a good idea.”

“I’m gonna do it!”

Rowan hadn’t really moved since entering the hall, only moving aside so others could get past them. Then there was a tap on their shoulder that made them jump and turn around quickly. They were greeted by a feminine plus sized person, with her dark, voluptuous, curly hair, light brown eyes, and freckles covering her dark skin, enhanced by gold make-up to make her freckles shimmer. She stared off into space for a few moments before shaking her head and flashing a huge smile, “Hi, my name is Georgia, I would like to be your friend!”

“U…uhm,” Rowan sighed, confused, and overwhelmed, she felt familiar, not as if they knew her before, but more so she looked familiar.

“Ah, forgive her,” someone else remarked from a small distance, “she’s extremely extroverted.”

“Oh, come on, Maverick, I’m just trying to make a friend,” Georgia huffed with puffed cheeks and a comical frown, turning around to the masculine individual that approached from behind her.

He had pale skin, gray chin length wavy hair, and red eyes. His right eye was a lighter color than his left as there was a scar on his face spanning from his forehead to the bottom of his lower lashes. He likewise seemed familiar to them, he was wearing more academic styled clothing in a dark sweater with the college’s insignia on the front and slacks. Whereas Georgia very much seemed like a cottagecore girl in her long skirt and ruffled top.

“I’m Rowan.”

Georgia smiled, facing Rowan again and clapping her hands together, “Oh yeah, this means we’re friends now!”

“Just because you introduced yourself and told them your name doesn’t make you friends,” Maverick remarked.

“It worked with you,” Georgia fought back.

“We were children!”

Georgia huffed, “Fine, then how about this: you join us while we walk around the exhibit, and then, maybe and hopefully that will make us friends!”

“Georgia it’s obvi—”

“…I would like that,” Rowan remarked, interrupting Maverick, “I honestly don’t know where to start.”

Georgia linked arms with Rowan, “I’m assuming you’re a freshman,” they nodded, “do you know what track you wanna study?”

“Kinda,” Rowan answered unconfidently, which earned them a look from the teen girl on their arm, “…Not really.”

“Let's get you some pamphlets, and hit all the booths, maybe it will help in your decision making,” Georgia gushed, “Now let’s go onward!”

Rowan let out a slight giggle, “Could you let me go first?”

“Yeah, sorry,” Georgia laughed.

The trio walked through the auditorium, stopping by the magic, alchemy, and natural track booths before visiting the booths for the many clubs/extracurricular activities at the college, stopping by the yearbook club’s booths. “Hey, sorry, all of our freshman spots are full,” one of the booth runners mentioned.

“We’re just here to see a friend,” Georgia retorted, to which Rowan looked at the girl beside them in confusion.

A long white-haired individual emerged from the back curtain of the booth camera in hand, and dressed in feminine casual clothes, and he smiled once he locked his blue eyes with Georgia and Maverick.

“Hey guys,” his voice was more on the masculine side, nothing like his appearance. Oddly enough, he was yet another face that looked familiar.

“Hey,” Georgia said as Maverick waved, “Elias, this is Rowan, Rowan this is Elias.”

There was a small moment, where Elias looked at them, his lips parted, and he just stared, “Uhm it’s…” Elias’s voice cracked, causing him to clear his throat, “it’s nice to meet you.”

“It’s nice to meet you too,” Rowan replied.

“You wanna join in a quest to hit every booth, before orientation speech starts?” Georgia asked, while Elias stepped outside of the yearbook club booth, “If you’re not too busy.”

“Yes, actually,” he said with a smile, “I’ve got to take pictures of the exhibits before the speeches.”

Georgia exhaled a nonsense noise of happiness, “Onward, the great Elias, onward!”

Rowan found themself smiling, most likely due to Georgia’s happiness which seemed to be infectious, not only to themself but Elias and Maverick haven’t stopped smiling around her either. She’s bright, like the sun.

“Have you thought about what track you’re going to study?” Maverick asked as Georgia and Elias held their own conversation a few steps ahead.

Rowan could feel his stare, as they walked, he seemed anxious and shy, yet the constant staring at the back of their head, made them think he wanted to speak to them. So, why not respond, “Kind of, I really like how the natural studies looks,” Rowan answered, shuffling through the pamphlets in their hands, “I like the idea of being about to learn about both magic and alchemy before actually committing to a craft.”

Maverick nodded, “I can say from experience it’s a lot of hard work, if you make it difficult.”

“Difficult describes my whole educational career,” Rowan joked, making Maverick chuckle, “School hasn’t been much of an issue for me, if I’m honest, it was the amount of work I was doing not the subjects.”

“Lucky,” Maverick commented, “Regardless, I think you’ll be fine… you’re with Indigo and Calvin after all!”

Rowan raised their eyebrows in his direction, “How did you know I am staying with them?”

“I saw you with Calvin the other day, it looked like he was giving you a tour,” he answered, “My boyfriend also saw you, Indigo, and Calvin leave together that day, I just assumed.”

Rowan thought back to the day Indigo and Calvin took them on the tour of the college, remembering stopping and looking into the combined music and art room, seeing that small group, “OH!” they remarked loudly, “That was you guys?!”

“In the art room, yeah,” Maverick replied, “If you can’t tell Georgia caught a glance of you and hyper-fixated and was even more excited to hear you and Indigo were close.”

Rowan chuckled slightly.

“Hey, Rowan, you said you liked bugs, right? They have an insect study club!” Georgia called, before gesturing to them to follow her, which they did.

“You okay, Mave?” Elias asked, resetting his camera to take some pictures.

Maverick stood in place, eyes wide, frozen in time with a shocked expression, “…They don’t remember anything.”

“What do you mean?”

Maverick looked at Elias for a second, “Didn’t you say they looked familiar the other day?” Maverick’s voice cracked as he got the sentence out, as if he was thinking of his words as he said them.

“I mean kinda, but if they’re who I’m thinking of, I don’t expect them to remember me, we were kids after all,” Elias replied, taking a picture of one of the booths.

Maverick held a somber look, something about his facial expression said that he was upset about whatever Elias was talking about, “Don’t look so down, Maverick, it’s fine,” Elias remarked.

“Yeah, I guess you’re right,” Maverick replied, “Where’s your brother?”

“The music club booth.”

Maverick thought for a moment as Elias continued to take pictures, “Tell Georgia I went to find him, I’ll catch up with you all later.”

“Alright, Bud—” Elias turned around to look at Maverick, only to find he was already gone, “dy… okay.”

Rowan and Georgia were still at the insect club booth when Elias rejoined the two of them. “Did you make these stuffed animals?” Georgia asked the booth runner, as she pointed to the stuffed bugs on display, some crochet, others seeming like store bought soft plushies.

“I made the crochet ones, but the others we bought online.”

“So, what do I have to do to get my hands on one of them?” Georgia questioned.

“Nothing, really.”

“Seriously?!”

“Yeah, they are incentives for signing up, but most people are just getting the shirts.”

Georgia looked towards Rowan, who was looking through one of the bug encyclopedias on one of the booth’s tables, “Can I get two? One is for my friend over there,” Georgia inquired.

The booth keeper nodded, before she grabbed a crochet bee, and a brown beetle plushie, and took it over to the jellyfish haired teen, “I hope you like beetles,” she remarked.

Rowan’s eyes lit up, “It’s so cute,” taking the very rotund boy from Georgia, “Where did you get this?”

“The booth, I got one too!” she replied, holding up the crochet bee she had picked up, “Bug buddies!”

“Bug buddies,” Rowan said with a smile.

“Hey, Elias, do you know if there’s anywhere, we could get a bag?” the teenaged girl asked, looking over at the boy who was, yet again, taking pictures, not too far from them.

“I think the conservation club is giving out free tote bags,” he answered, rejoining them.

Georgia whipped her head back and forth quickly, as if she just noticed something, “…Where’s Maverick?”

“He went to find Nemo,” Elias said.

“Who’s Nemo?” Rowan asked.

“...My brother,” Elias replied.

Rowan hummed, as they came upon the conservation booth. They took one of the free tote bags, so Rowan could shovel all their goodies into the pale colored bag with nature designs all over it. Shortly after the group found Maverick once again, who was hand and hand with a gentleman who looked like Elias, but more masculine. Wearing all black from his ripped jeans and hoodie. His hair was the opposite of his brother’s, Nemo’s hair being quite a bit shorter & raven black, with sweeping bangs almost covering one his blue eyes.

“Rowan, Nemo. Nemo, Rowan,” Georgia introduced the two that hadn’t met yet.

“Hi,” Rowan remarked quietly.

“Hey,” Nemo grunted out.

“Could those in attendance, please make their way to the auditorium stage, orientation is about to start.”

“Oh, I wonder who’s giving the speech this year,” Georgia pondered as the little group they formed walked away from the exhibits and toward the stage.

“Probably some old dude like last year,” Nemo retorted, “so it will just be as long and boring.”

“I thought the speech was good last year,” Maverick commented.

The sound of a clearing throat filled the auditorium turning everyone’s full attention to the stage, where Duke stood at a microphoned podium, “Good morning,” he stated, “It is very pleasing to see this auditorium so full, with the Emerald class, Bauxite class and the incoming Morganite class! Today marks the start of another wonderful year here at this pillar of education, which will showcase the teachings of the brilliant staff that we have at this institution!”

On cue the staff members, with the likes of Indigo, Sloan, and Calvin, came on stage. Standing in front of designated chairs behind Duke, once everyone was on stage they sat almost in unison.

“That’s odd,” Georgia remarked.

“Huh?” Rowan whispered.

“Calvin and Indigo aren’t supposed to be sitting next to each other,” she informed in a quiet tone, “See the three chairs in the front? Those are for the head professor of each track. Calvin should be in the middle of the regular professors.”

“Huh, I wonder why he’s sitting next to her,” Rowan pondered.

“On this glorious day, you have been able to adventure around the school’s exhibits to explore the different pathways, clubs, and activities we host at this school, to ensure you have a distinguished educational career—"

Rowan looked toward Indigo, who looked a mix of tired and disgusted, as Duke spoke. Indigo bounced her legs as they were crossed. “I could continue to speak about this outstanding institution, yet it would be quite boring. Allow me to introduce Indigo Corals, the head of the magic department and a mage professor, to continue my sentiments!”

Indigo stood up from her chair to the array of mummers and gasps, taking her place at the podium adjusting the microphone before speaking, “Good morning, it must be quite shocking to see me giving this speech instead of one of my older colleagues, thankfully they wish to stay around just a little bit longer. Most likely to see if this trainwreck will end any time soon,” she speaks like she’s made from the heavens and holds a venom in her voice that sounds like it’s from hell, “I stood on this stage at the age of 18, making history as one of the youngest professors in this body, because I was “made for the role.” Many of you have had me as a professor and know that I am straight forward, this speech will be no different. This school is far from easy, and it is even more difficult if you attempt to see this as just a house of education and less of a battle for your life. I look to the Emerald class, and hope that the Goddess allows you all to make it to your graduation, and I look to the new Morganite class, hoping things will change in your favor by the time you make it to your own graduation.”

Indigo finally found Rowan for a second before looking on to the large coward which was full of mumblings and murmurings about her depressing speech, “If it wasn’t for a late friend I would not be standing before you today. I would have left this intuition in favor of life elsewhere, but it seems I am still a tiny scholar beheld to the want to learn within these blessed ivory halls, along with being a woman of history and the social sciences. Although I wish my dear departed friend was here,” she looked at Rowan once again, “for you.”

Then she continued, “And yet, I stand here, glad that she doesn’t have to see the continued horrors that still happen in these pearl halls!” Indigo looked at Duke who was very displeased by her words, “If only you weren’t at fault,” she looked back at. that the crowd, “I hope you all have the opportunity to experience the best education, as you deserve it, and I hope to see some of your faces in my classroom, ready and willing to learn, thank you for your time.”

Indigo made it back to her chair forgoing sitting up straight, feeling Calvin’s hand lace in hers, before he kissed her knuckles, “Tu t'es bien débrouillée, yeux d'ange, je suis fière de toi,” he muttered against her hand before she leaned close to him from her chair.

“Rowan? Are you okay,” Georgia queried.

“Uh-muh?”

“Rowan, you’re crying.”

Rowan touched their cheeks, soaked by their tears, “Huh? ...I don’t even know why I’m crying.”

They wiped their tears, before half listening to the rest of the orientation. Once the orientation concluded, everyone shuffled towards the exits of the auditorium, where Rowan waited for Indigo and Calvin so they could all go home.

“You don’t have to stay here with me,” they mentioned, looking over at the chubby girl standing next to them against the wall, “You can find your friends.”

“Nah,” Georgia sighed, staring at the floor, “Maverick is helping the art club take down their booth, Elias is going to develop his pictures from today, and Nemo’s probably went to the music room to play piano. Until Maverick is done, I’m basically on my own.”

“Oh, well thank you, for helping me get around today,” Rowan replied as she looked up at them.

“No problem,” Georgia said with a smile, “Does this make us friends now?”

They thought for a moment, “Yeah,” they said with a nod.

“Yippee,” she squealed, before turning her body towards them, “Can I see your phone?”

“Uhm… sure,” they replied, handing over their phone.

“You should really put a password on your phone, anyway,” Georgia typed on their phone a few minutes before handing them back their phone and typing on her own, “There you go! Now we have each other’s numbers, so if we have classes together this semester, we can exchange notes!”

Rowan laughed slightly, “Thank you,” before feeling fur against their ankles, seeing Hecate looking up at them, when they looked down.

“Hey, kiddo,” Calvin’s voice called, grabbing Rowan’s attention, they turned around to see Indigo, even more tired than before and the healer in question, walking towards them, “Ready to go home? …Oh, hi Georgia.”

Georgia waved, “I’ll see you later, Ro,” she said.

“See ya’ later,” Rowan remarked as Georgia reentered the auditorium.

“Mhm, you’ve gotten all kinds of goodies,” Indigo muttered as they all walked towards an exit.

“Yeah,” Rowan chuckled, looking down at the tote bag in their hand.

Once back home, Indigo had already begun pulling all the ornate bobbles off her clothing and her hair, huffing, and heading elsewhere in the house, assumingly to her room.

“How about you just chill for a few?” Calvin suggested to Rowan, “I…”

“Yeah, I understand,” Rowan replied with a nod, before watching him walk away.

Rowan may not fully understand the inner workings of their guardians’ relationship, but it was cute, from the outside looking in.

They headed to the kitchen for a small snack and then headed to their bedroom, they took out all of their little goodies from the cutely designed tote bag. They placed their lovely stuffed beetle friend on their bed first before continuing to unpack the bag.

“Angel eyes,” Calvin muttered while entering their bedroom, seeing Indigo’s orientation clothes discarded on the floor, leaving her in a soft underclothing in her flopped position on their large bed, “what would you like for dinner?”

“Uhm, shrimp pasta,” she slurred, moving from laying on her stomach to lay on her side to look at Calvin.

“Just shrimp pasta?” he asked, stripping himself off his many layers, so he was just in the white shirt and pants of his outfit, “Nothing special about it.”

“…Just the shrimp pasta you always make,” Indigo answered, while he leaned over her kissing her cheek multiple times, “Papa said he and Mère made croissants today, he left them in the bread box. We also need bread when you go out tomorrow.”

“Okay, angel,” Calvin cooed, against her cheek, “anything else?”

“I love you,” she slurred, holding his face in her hands, “I would be falling apart if you weren’t here, thank you, you could be anywhere and with anyone, and you’re here. With me, in this chaos.”

“I love you too, sweet girl,” he replied, “I’m always going to be here, only for you, I don’t want to be anywhere else. Even in all the chaos there is you.”

They kissed each other softly, before Calvin pulled away, “I’ll bring you, your food, angel,” he mentioned before heading from the door, “Wait! …Isn’t Rowan allergic to shrimp?”

“Non, they’re allergic to oysters,” Indigo slurred into her pillow.

“Got it,” Calvin said as he headed for the kitchen, hearing dings from a phone, coming from Rowan’s room.

PHOTOSHOOT: L’OFFICIEL MAGAZINE

Marina once again demonstrated her commitment to her glamorous style for the US version of L’Officiel. Photographed by Michael Beckert in NYC’s The Pierre Hotel back in February 2019, the editorial shows Marina wearing the finest runway pieces and high jewelry.

Styling by Yael Quint and Mina Erkli, makeup by Mariko Arai and hair by Sean Bennett.

For the first look, Marina wears a full Chanel Spring/Summer 2019 look which comprises a beaded white knit sweater with the house's signature camellia flower sitting on each shoulder, and a bouclé midi skirt featuring multicolored palms embroidery, and a high slit.

The Greek-Welsh beauty was decked in lots of high jewelry for this editorial! These stunning morganite and diamond teardrop earrings are courtesy of Jacob & Co., whose designs we'll see much more of later!

Personally, no editorial is complete without some romantic Valentino in it! The off-the-shoulder black silk taffeta awe, our girl poses in, was the opening number from the Italian house’s Spring/Summer 2019 collection.

The look was accessorized with a diamond necklace which is courtesy of The Pierre NY hotel, and the Roger Vivier Maharaja black velvet slingback pumps with white feathers.

Both the Josie embellished floral embroidered chiffon sleeveless midi dress which looks like it could have been picked up straight from a painting...

...and black floral lace wide-brimmed hat with matching organza veil, M wrapped around her neck, are from Erdem’s Spring/Summer 2019 runway show!

She crowned the look with Bvlgari’s Serpenti Obere white-gold and diamond huggie earrings.

Next, our girl is seen wearing a Zac Posen Spring/Summer 2019 off-the-shoulder draped mermaid gown in blue polka-dotted degradé taffeta.

More high jewelry from the house of Bvlgari! Firstly, a pair of Serpenti earrings in 18k white-gold, set with pavé diamonds ($60,123.41)...

...and, of course, the Serpenti Viper two-coil bracelet in 18k white-gold, set with full pavé diamonds.

The house of Jacob & Co. signed her earrings crafted from 18k white-gold earrings set with 8 natural Colombian briolette emeralds totaling 68.98 carats highlighted by 245 marquise, pear and round brilliant cut diamonds totaling 11.96 carats...

...and the matching show-stopping necklace, featuring 16 Colombian briolette emeralds!

Last but definitely not least, we got a Gucci Spring/Summer 2019 look! This is the nautical-inspired long-sleeved A-line midi dress with collar in contrasting blue & red, and buttoned front.

Slim-silhouetted eyewear was a huge trend back in 2018/19 and these Poppy Lissiman Le Skinny clear cat-eye glasses definitely fit the bill!

Bvlgari created her snake head-shaped Serpenti earrings in 18k white-gold, set with emerald eyes and full pavé diamonds.

As you might have guessed by now, they’re also behind her Serpenti Viper 18k white-gold ring set with pavé diamonds.

The final piece of this look (and this spread) is this Gucci mini Zumi purse in burgundy lizard leather. It features a top handle, detachable gold-tone chain strap and the house’s logo and signature horsebit hardware in silver & gold.

Polki Jewelry for Intimate Weddings: Minimalist Styles for Small Celebrations

Minimalist Polki jewelry offers the perfect blend of elegance and tradition for intimate weddings. Opt for delicate Polki chokers, subtle earrings, or simple Maang Tikkas to enhance your bridal look without overpowering it. These lightweight yet luxurious pieces add sophistication, making them ideal for smaller, more personal celebrations.

No matter how modern and fashion-forward Indian brides are, on their wedding day, it’s all about custom and a nod to tradition, along with celebrating their roots. Polki Indian jewelry in Tysons Corner, VA, is not just timeless and elegant, but also uniquely crafted, making it a perfect choice for Indian brides who appreciate individuality.

Polki jewelry is a testament to the skill and dedication of the artisans who create it. Made using rough and uncut diamonds in their natural form and platinum and gold foiling on the back, this type of art takes jewelers weeks or even months to create a single piece. It's a true labor of love that deserves our admiration.

This jewelry offers the bride a beautiful, natural shine and shimmer and was widely used by royalty in the past.

Reasons to love Polki pieces

A complete classic

Your Polki Indian jewelry in Arlington, VA, is classic and timeless. Because each piece is handcrafted with care and value, many brides pass them down as heirlooms to future generations.

Colorful patterns

Each Polki piece is set with meenakari work, uncut gemstones like diamonds, sapphires, amethysts, emeralds, and pearls, and enamel work for a punch of color. Some jewelers even use morganites and pastel-hued stones to give the desired effect.

Comfortable and practical

Unlike most bridal jewelry, which is worn only once and lies at the back of the closet, Polki pieces are designed to be comfortable, practical, and versatile. Brides can wear them for every occasion after their wedding day. These pieces can even be reversed and worn for events or casual use, giving you the confidence that your investment will be well-used.

Your Polki 22-karat gold jewelry, Clarksburg, MD, is highly versatile and can be worn differently. Since it comes in multipurpose designs, it can be detached and worn as studs, hair pieces, necklaces, or even choker necklaces. This allows brides to get the most use out of their pieces.

In Conclusion

Always remember to head to a reliable and trusted jewelry store with experience making Polki pieces; they can create a beautiful and unique piece for you. Since most Polki pieces are passed down as heirlooms, you need to pay close attention to the type of work, gemstones, metals, and settings that go into your piece.

Always choose the best high-end gemstones, which are of high clarity and have few to no small flaws and imperfections, so that they can shine beautifully.

Diamond Alternatives: Exploring Moissanite and Other Gemstones

Introduction

When it comes to choosing the perfect gemstone for your jewelry, diamonds have long been the go-to choice. However, many people are now exploring diamond alternatives that offer beauty, durability, and affordability. Moissanite and other gemstones are gaining popularity as excellent substitutes for diamonds, each with its unique characteristics and appeal. In this blog, we'll explore these diamond alternatives and provide jewelry care instructions to help you keep your pieces looking their best.

Moissanite: The Sparkling Diamond Alternative

What Is Moissanite? Moissanite is a gemstone that closely resembles diamonds in appearance but has its own unique properties. Discovered in a meteor crater, this stone has a higher refractive index than diamonds, which means it can exhibit even more brilliance and fire.

Why Choose Moissanite?

Affordability: Moissanite is significantly less expensive than diamonds, making it an attractive option for those looking for luxurious jewelry on a budget.

Durability: With a hardness rating of 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite is nearly as hard as diamonds, making it suitable for everyday wear.

Ethical and Sustainable: Moissanite is lab-grown, ensuring that it is free from the ethical and environmental concerns associated with diamond mining.

Jewelry Care Instructions for Moissanite To keep your moissanite jewelry sparkling, clean it regularly with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage the stone. Store moissanite jewelry in a soft pouch to prevent scratches.

Other Diamond Alternatives

1. Sapphire

Sapphires are a popular alternative to diamonds, known for their stunning blue hues, though they also come in other colors. With a hardness rating of 9 on the Mohs scale, sapphires are durable and suitable for everyday wear.

Jewelry Care Instructions for Sapphire Clean your sapphire jewelry with mild soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, as they can damage the stone. Store sapphire pieces separately to avoid scratching other gemstones.

2. Ruby

Rubies, with their rich red color, are another excellent diamond alternative. Like sapphires, rubies are durable, with a hardness rating of 9, making them perfect for engagement rings and other jewelry pieces.

Jewelry Care Instructions for Ruby Use warm soapy water and a soft brush to clean ruby jewelry. Avoid exposing rubies to heat or harsh chemicals. Store rubies in a separate compartment or a soft pouch to prevent damage.

3. Emerald

Emeralds are prized for their vibrant green color and unique charm. However, they are softer than diamonds, with a hardness rating of 7.5-8, which means they require more careful handling.

Jewelry Care Instructions for Emerald Clean emerald jewelry with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and exposure to high heat or harsh chemicals, as emeralds can be prone to cracking. Store emerald jewelry separately in a padded box to protect it from damage.

4. Morganite

Morganite, a member of the beryl family, is known for its delicate pink or peachy hues. It’s a softer gemstone, with a hardness of 7.5-8, making it a beautiful yet affordable alternative to diamonds.

Jewelry Care Instructions for Morganite Clean morganite jewelry gently with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners. Store morganite pieces in a separate pouch or compartment to prevent scratches.

Choosing the Right Diamond Alternative

When selecting a diamond alternative, consider factors like color, durability, and personal style. Each gemstone offers its own unique beauty and characteristics, allowing you to choose a piece that reflects your personality and values.

Conclusion

Exploring diamond alternatives like moissanite, sapphire, ruby, emerald, and morganite can open up a world of possibilities for your jewelry collection. These gemstones offer stunning beauty and durability at a fraction of the cost of diamonds, making them excellent choices for those seeking something unique and affordable. With proper jewelry care instructions, you can ensure that your gemstone jewelry remains radiant and beautiful for years to come.

What is topaz in jewelry?

The word "topaz" is believed to originate from the Greek roots Topázios or Topázion, passing through Old French: Topace and Latin: Topazius, derived from the word Τοπαζος, which was the ancient name for the island of St. John in the Red Sea, where yellow gems (now believed to be chrysolite: pale yellow olivine crystals) were originally mined.

The term "topaz" was first used to refer to the modern gemstone in 1737. Ancient Sri Lanka (Taprobane) exported topaz to ancient Greece and Egypt, leading to the similar naming of the island by Alexander Polyhistor (Topazius) and ancient Egyptians (Topapwene), meaning "land of topaz."

Pliny stated that Topazos was a legendary island in the Red Sea, where the "topaz" gem was first found. Alternatively, the word "topaz" may be related to the Sanskrit word तपस् "tapas," meaning "heat" or "fire."

Topaz is a type of gemstone. When cut and polished, it is used for making jewelry or other decorative items. Low-quality topaz is often used as an inexpensive material because of its hardness, and it is used to produce fire-resistant materials for high-temperature environments. Topaz can be used as a flux in steel production.

Using topaz as a fire-resistant material may cause health and environmental problems, as the combustion process of topaz can release fluorine as a by-product.

Topaz is ranked as the second category of gemstones or semi-precious stones, along with aquamarine, morganite, and tourmaline. In contrast, the first category of gemstones or precious stones includes ruby, sapphire, diamond, and peridot.

Is a topaz stone valuable?

The price of topaz, like other gemstones, depends on quality. However, some general statements can be made. Blue topaz, which is the variety most commonly seen in jewelry today, is produced in such large quantities that it currently generally sells for around $25 per carat at retail prices for ring sizes. Larger sizes may be slightly more expensive. Although natural blue topaz exists, the production of large quantities of treated blue topaz has driven the prices of natural blue topaz to equal that of treated blue topaz. Smaller sizes and lower qualities can be less expensive.

Colorless topaz, the raw material for producing blue topaz (by irradiation and heat treatment), comes in sizes of 100 carats or more and sells for less than $8 per carat. Brown topaz has prices similar to these.

How can you tell if a topaz is good?

A high-quality topaz will have a vivid, even color, be eye-clean, and well-cut, and come with proper documentation regarding its authenticity and any treatments. Understanding these factors will help you make an informed decision when evaluating a topaz.

What color of topaz is most valuable?

The most valuable and sought-after color of topaz is imperial topaz, a rich orange color with reddish-pink or yellowish tones. This vibrant hue is caused by trace amounts of chromium and iron impurities in the gemstone's chemical composition.

the distinctively beautiful color and the rarity of its production sources make imperial topaz one of the most precious and expensive colors of topaz.

Conclusion

Topaz is a gemstone that has been known and valued since ancient times. The name is believed to originate from the Greek word "topazios" or "topazion", referring to an island in the Red Sea where yellow gems were originally mined (now thought to be chrysolite).

Topaz comes in various colors, with blue being the most common variety used in jewelry today. While large quantities of treated blue topaz have made it relatively inexpensive, the rarest and most valuable color is imperial topaz, which has a rich orange hue with reddish-pink or yellowish tones.

The value of topaz depends on several factors, including color, clarity, cut, and size. High-quality topaz should have a vivid, even color, be eye-clean (free from visible inclusions), well-cut, and come with proper documentation regarding its authenticity and any treatments.

Classy, Never Clashing: A Guide to Wedding Jewelry for Couples

Most couples will need to see wedding jewelry before they invest in it and often seek to purchase these pieces well in advance. However, most people aren’t aware of what pieces to choose and often end up clashing with each other.

Here are some tips to keep in mind to make sure that your wedding rings in Atlanta, GA, and other accessories pair well with your partner.

Tips to choose jewelry for brides

When it comes to choosing pieces for your big day, always wear jewelry that accentuates your neckline and matches your bridal gown. When it comes to brides, keep in mind that less is more. Instead of overdoing the jewelry, stick to two statement pieces.

If you have a low scoop gown, you can pair it with a statement necklace. Strapless gowns look stunning with a pearl or diamond choker, you can also pick a morganite or pink diamond pendant to suit your V-neck gown.

Choose pieces that have sentimental value like luxury watches in Atlanta, GA, or even headpieces that complement your dress.

Tips to choose jewelry for grooms

Nowadays, grooms are putting in a lot more effort into how they wear their wedding bands in Decatur, GA. If you’re looking to personalize your wedding bands, think about your style, lifestyle, and duties on your big day.

Usually, wedding bands are meant to complement each other. You could choose a similar engraving, metal, or design as your partner. Pick durable metals such as platinum, titanium, or tungsten that are tough and can easily take on daily wear and tear.

Final Word

Keep in mind that accessorizing for your big day comes once in a lifetime. Whether you’re buying bridal jewelry for your partner or you, make sure to choose high-end pieces that resonate with you.

Character Intro: Kósmima (Kingdom of Ichor)

Age- 46 (immortal)

Location- Chant du Cygne neighborhood, New Olympus

Personality- A self proclaimed "cool mom"- she's outwardly confident, sex positive, & in tune with her femininity. Under her manicured surface she's manipulative, insecure, and is an overzealous social climber. She's currently single.

She has the standard abilities of a goddess except shapeshifitng. As the goddess of adornment her other powers/abilities include kosmímatakinesis (jewelry manipulation), gold mimicry, gemstone generation/manipulation, and gem physiology (is able to change her entire physical form into the properties of any/all gemstones).

Kósmima lives on the 12th floor of The Chrysea Tower- a luxury high rise apartment building in the Chant du Cygne neighborhood of New Olympus. Luxury amenities in the building include a fitness center, a heated olympic sized saltwater pool, exclusive parking, a spa, a garden, & sun deck. The insignia on the uniforms of the apartment's maintenance workers and doormen is that of a golden apple.

Her apartment is 12B. The interior design is very flirty & fashionable with a color scheme of pink, cream, jade, gold, and pastel blue. The flooring (except for the kitchen & bathroom) is baby pink mink carpeting. The kitchen has up-to-date stainless steel appliances while there's also leather and velvet furniture, lucite & crystal furniture pieces, as well as a large canopy bed in her bedroom covered with satin and velvet pillows and silk & satin sheets. Also in her bedroom, there's a large decorative white gold pithos adorned with aquamarines, white diamonds, red rubies, pink morganite, blue sapphires, purple amethysts, and pearls. It's her favorite accessory in the entire apartment.

Kósmima has a single pet- a female chihuahua named Lux. She calls her dog her "furry BFF." She loves dressing up Lux in designer doggy outfits & loves buying her a box of luxurious dog macaron treats from Basileus Seventh Avenue, a luxury department store chain.

She gets around in a sleek hot pink sports car- complete with white gold spinners and a diamond studded wheel cover!

Kósmima has two daughters- Phaenna (goddess of jewels) and Cleta (goddess of whispers). She knew for the longest time that she wanted to be a single mother. Kósmima got pregnant on her own after a few appointments at the Calligeneia Fertility Clinic owned by Gaia (goddess of the earth).

When her daughters were babies & young girls, she affectionately called them her "mini-me's." The shift in their relationship happened over time as Kósmima's need for being in the A-list grew. She instilled in her daughters to grab hold of any opportunity that crosses their path. Kósmima was the one that suggested to Cleta to be an assistant to Pheme (goddess of fame) after her induction ceremony. Now her relationship with her girls is nothing more than a check-in text, a quick visit here and there, & a check for a couple thousand drachmas sent by Phaenna to help cover the rent.

Kósmima's beauty routine starts everyday without fail at 3 AM. After showering, scrubbing, and shaving, she applies the Olmorfia cucumber detox hydra-gel eye patches under her eyelids. She then uses the Platinum Luminescence electric facial roller then the EverPure ice roller. Then she wears the Olmorfia pure luxury organic sheet face mask for a few minutes, then applies the Luxuria shimmering body oil in "Bronze Drip" all over her body.

She proclaims to be allergic to anything domestic (like cooking) so her food comes from ordering in and dining out. Kósmima orders breakfast through chariot service with some of her favorites being tuscan avocado toast with smoked salmon & pressed grapefruit juice, a three egg omelet (added with feta cheese, scallions, and mushrooms) along with bacon & garlic home fries, & berry mix parfaits. She also likes the Golly Grains caramel curls cereal.

A go-to drink for her is a flirtini. She also likes cosmopolitans, red sangrias, candy apple martinis, mimosas, champagne, p*rn star cocktails, piña coladas, rosé wine, palomas, and bellinis. Usuals from The Roasted Bean is a large watermelon strawberry splash & an olympian sized iced caramel macchiato.

Kósmima owns five sets of La Petit Amour velour tracksuits.

She has a cushion cut emerald belly button ring.

She owns one pair of Diamond Ave. heels with the diamond encrusted soles after some monetary help from her daughters.

Kósmima loathes her position in the pantheon as a minor goddess. She hates the unspoken but acknowledged hierarchy that exists with the minor deities. She's grown to become resentful towards Aígli (goddess of glamour) and her meteoric rise to the A-list through her marriage to the crowned prince of the Freshwater Territories- Achelous (god of freshwater). Kósmima also hates the relationships her daughters have with their mentors- Clymene (Titaness of fame & renown) and Theia (Titaness of sight & heavenly light).

Her favorite frozen treat is bubblegum flavored ice cream. She gets a large cup whenever she goes to The Frozen Spoon.

She frequents the Ambologêra Beauty Salon weekly for freshly jeweled manicures and silk blowouts.

For work Kósmima mainly models for/endorses Heavenly Spark, the lingerie brand of Zeus (god of the sky, thunder, & lightning). She has also appeared as the centerfold for his men's magazine. Lately, she's been working towards securing a role as an official spokesmodel for Olmorfia.

A guilty pleasure for her are pink lady sushi rolls from The Ocean Roll, a popular sushi restaurant.

She's amassed a million followers on Fatestagram and is constantly uploading posts, videos, & pictures on her page.

In the pantheon her best friend is Charis (goddess of charm). They're more than best friends, they're soul sisters. They're always in contact through their phones and they hang out all the time. Their favorite activity is the Slumber Night. Kósmima & Charis will rent a room at the Grand Eaglepoint Hotel, wear matching silk pajamas, order tons of room service, drink one too many cosmos, and watch a chick-flick movie marathon. She's even the noná to Charis' daughter Calleis (goddess of allurement). Kósmima will sometimes playfully flirt with Charis' son Hedylogos (god of sweet talk & flattery).

Kósmima is also friends with Matikós (god of performance), Kéfi (goddess of mirth), Aisa (goddess of lot & fate), Sponde (goddess of libations), Philotes (goddess of sex, friendship, & affection), Evimería (goddess of prosperity), Felis (Titaness of cats), and Pagoniá (goddess of ice).

She thinks that Dione is the BIGGEST bitch in the pantheon & that Litismós (goddess of culture) is a snobby prissy fun-sucker.

Kósmima is excited about attending her first NOFW (New Olympus Fashion Week) after Felis gave her an extra ticket.

Kósmima rivals Aisa in having the most credit cards.

At her most recent birthday, Charis gifted her with a purple diamond shaped Diamond Ave. jeweled clutch.

She loves the La Petit Amour dog carrier Pagoniá got for Lux.

When Kósmima tagged along with Aisa to the Apemios auction house, she came across a bit of luck when she bid and won a gorgeous piece of jewelry- a 18K gold ring with a green quartz & a total of .70 carats of brilliant cut diamonds. She got it for 7,000 drachmas.

She loves the pair of lime green jeweled heeled sandals Kéfi got her.

Kósmima has quite a few lovers on call, including the doorman of her apartment building- a mortal University sophmore named Christian.

She absolutely loves wearing the Fími parfum.

In her long list of goals Kósmima hopes to get a star on the Pantheon Walk of Fame, own the most expensive Megaleio handbag, recieve an invitation to the Olympian Gala, and for her & her bestie to be added to the cast for the upcoming reality TV show The Real Goddesses of New Olympus.

Her all time favorite meal is lemon garlic shrimp pasta (lightly topped with parmesan cheese) with garlic bread.

In her free time Kósmima enjoys reading magazines, going to the cinema, reading magazines, tennis, sunbathing, clubbing, and shopping.

"Jewelry is like the perfect spice. It always compliments what's already there."
