A little black dress is a fashion staple, can be pulled out and warn for many different occasions. There are jewelry staples as well. Pieces that are timeless, versatile and key to have in your jewelry box.

    • Stud Earrings

For anyone with pierced ears, stud earrings are a daily must have. Simple styles such as diamonds, birthstones, mixed metals, and more. Gabriel & Co. has a variety of stud earrings from the traditional diamond stud to more modern shapes and styles. There are many options in terms of price range. Gifting a pair of stud earrings is perfect as there are many choices and they will get a lot of wear.

    • Hoop Earrings

Hoop earrings can elevate even the simplest jeans and tee look. Hoop earrings can be worn on a daily basis as well, but the size of the hoop can be a preference. Trying them on is key to ensure you are comfortable with the size. Gabriel & Co. is the only fine jewelry brand that offers a screwback hoop earring. This is great for ensuring your earrings won’t fall off!

    • Statement ring

Statement rings, midis, and stackable rings are fun and playful. The statement ring is a final touch to your outfit. They don’t have to be gigantic, the rings here at Gabriel & Co. have unique styles, geometry, patterns, and details. Wearing multiple on one finger is also a one-of-a-kind way for you to express your style.

    • Diamond Bracelet

The diamond bracelet is a timeless classic. There are many different style options now, moving on past the term, “tennis bracelet.” Demure bracelets are a fashionable choice, with options to wear a single bracelet or to layer them for a twist.

    • Everyday Necklace

An essential piece that you wear “everyday” is definitely a must! This is your signature. One you rarely take it off, and may not even remember you are wearing! It can be a simple pendant, cross, birthstone on a chain, initial necklace, the options are many.

These pieces are just a few that we consider “musts” for your jewelry box. Which type of jewelry is your “must-have?”

Summer Jewelry Care

Leave a Comment

Take extra care if your jewelry during the summer months! Although here in the Pacific Northwest we don’t have the hot summer days, days outside, trips to the beach, and sunscreen can damage your jewelry. Here are a few tips for you for summer jewelry care.

Heading to the pool?

If pool (or hot tub) days are on your summer to-do list, leave your jewelry at home. Chlorine will highly corrode jewelry. If worn in chloride often, you can even discolor some gemstones.

Going on a beach vacation?

We don’t have many beaches around here, but if you are spending a day at the beach its a great idea to keep your jewelry in a safe place for the day. It is risky to wear jewelry in the ocean. A big wave can make your ring slip off. Salt water also can damage your jewelry and over time wear down prongs, leaving you at risk for losing stones.

Laying out?

While sun isn’t likely to damage your jewelry, it is still a good idea to remove any jewelry when tanning. When you put on sunscreen, the oils will get on your jewelry and leave them dull and grimy. They can also dull the sparkle, so remove your jewelry before applying sunscreen, lotion, or tanning lotion.
