Red Jewelry

nnoble4

Hey Knotties,

I am trying to find some jewelry with some red in them. I don't want real diamonds or rubies, but something that looks nice. I've been scouring etsy, and going to stores in person. I can't seem to find much. On etsy, it's difficult just because of the amount of things on their.

Anyone use etsy for jewelry? If so, what shop?

Also, I'm currently thinking of doing pretty, dangling earrings, maybe a bracelet, and maybe a simple necklace.

Thanks!

Have you tried the local dept stores?

Maybe you could contact her and ask her to make you something.

I have tried some department stores. Found something I LOVED at Macys.....except it was real diamonds and rubies and was over $5000! Hahaha, figures.

I'll keep that website in mind. I had seen it before, a long time ago, but didn't remember it. Thanks :-)

some red stones go by weird names:

garnet and ruby are most precious and therefore most expensive

less expensive stones include

red sapphire

bixbyte (known as beryl)

tourmaline

alexandrite

maybe searching these will help?

Have you bought your wedding rings yet? If not, you should check out Argo and Lehne, this is where we got my engagement ring. They are a mom and pop shop that's been around for like 80 years. The cool thing though is that if you buy your wedding rings there you get to borrow any piece they have in the store for your wedding day. Definitely cannot speak more highly of them and it's definitely not something larger jewelry stores offer. I also want to wear red jewelry for my wedding and I go in to check out what they have every so often (they have new pieces but they sell a lot of antique jewelry too). If you go in speak with Bob, he's one of the owners and is a really wonderful guy. And price wise, they came in slightly lower than DC for the engagement ring. 

As a side note, one of the diamonds in my engagement band had been bumped and wasn't sitting right, which was noticed when I took it in to get cleaned. I dropped it off this morning and they had it ready for me after work. No charge

Check out myfantasyjewelrybox.com, glamour.com (under shopping), as well as theshoppingchannel.com, and hsn.com

I have actually found a lot of awesome stuff on there as far as jewelry goes. Also check out maybe overstock.com?

Thanks for those ideas!  I never knew what else was red besides rubies....so I have more options now :-)  You ladies are the best!
