Thank you to Joshua Hyman, GG (GIA) of Philadelphia Jewelry Appraisers for spending time with us this past sunny Sunday afternoon!Josh is a 4th generation Philadelphia jeweler with an interesting journey, both on Jeweler's Row and off. He showed us the tools he uses for his appraisal work, as well as his fascinating collection of gems, minerals, and crystals. As always, he entertained us with the stories of where the different pieces of his collection came from. Right before we arrived for his lecture, he and Lauryn Volovar had just recorded their newest podcast episode of Gemology Worldwide. Make sure...

Our latest collection for Navona Handmade was inspired by our travels in the city of Pittsburgh. You can see skyscrapers in this crescent ring, and a hint of Randyland in this pendant.

This was one of my fave wedding rings from last year! It's an asymmetrical style with pear and round gemstones on one side, and wheat engraving on the other side. Gorgeous, right? If you're looking for a unique, vintage-inspired designer engagement ring or wedding band, let's chat! Send me a message through my Contact Page.      

I made this gorgeous opal engagement ring and matching wedding band set to celebrate the recent marriage of Angel and Isaiah. Angel's custom engagement ring features a luminous white opal gemstone, held with a multi-pronged setting atop a diamond-studded lotus design. Her ring has a vintage-inspired feel, and the opal center stone makes it an even more special. She paired her unique engagement ring with a simple rose gold wedding band, and Isaiah chose a custom 14kt white and rose gold wedding band to match. Thanks for the fabulous shots from HeyJinx Design! Are you ready to make your own...
