For over 25 years, Scott Kay has been acclaimed as the foremost authority in bridal jewelry. Scott lives by one rule: Never Compromise. This credo is evident in each of his hand-sculptured jewelry designs. Scott Kay bridal designs are classic and innovative. Taking inspiration from gorgeous rings of eras past and infusing them with a contemporary twist, Scott Kay engagement rings are much sought after rings for brides to be.
Scott Kay signature platinum ring collections are wildly popular with couples who prefer a more durable, less showy metal than gold. Platinum is presently one of the most popular metals for both men and women. The girls appreciate its beauty and understated elegance and the guys like the fact that it is tough and can be worn on a daily basis, even if they work with their hands. Scott Kay rings feature the finest platinum in their settings and bands. Scott Kay engagement rings use 95 percent pure platinum with a ruthenium alloy that is added for strength.

Though platinum will forever be the material the made the designer famous, Scott Kay engagement rings are also prized for their superior stones. All side stones that are used in Scott Kay engagement rings are G (near colorless) in color grade and VS (very slightly included) in clarity grade range. They are also carefully inspected for proportion and cut to ensure that they match each setting perfectly.
But Scott Kay is not just for the girls. In recent years, the designer has branched out and he now offers an impressive collection of designer Scott Kay rings for the guys and a distinct collection of men’s jewelry. Unlike most of his competitors, he designs rings in a variety of materials, not all of them precious metals. Yes, there is gold and platinum, of course, but Scott Kay rings are also offered in palladium and now cobalt. Both options are attractive, durable and low-cost alternatives to the precious metals. Scott Kay rings for men are also offered in a variety of styles. At present, the designer features nine distinct wedding band collections for guys.

Scott Kay’s hand-sculpted artisan-ship is evident in each of his collections of engagement rings, wedding rings, men’s wedding bands, and eternity bands, promising a treasure to be passed down through generations. In addition to gold, platinum, and palladium Scott Kay rings, Scott Kay cobalt wedding bands are among the finest contemporary metal wedding rings available.

Trend Alert: Black and White Jewelry

Posted on January 10, 2013 by Make Technology

What’s not to love about the crisp clean contrast of black and white? This look has long been a classic for jewelry design, but the love of these two-tone pieces has certainly increased over the last few months, due in part to the Art Deco trend that developed over the end of last year. Black and white jewelry gives an instant “wow” factor to any look and maintains a very modern feel.

1. Black & White Diamond Wrap Row Bracelet from King Jewelers, 2. Black Gold Diamond Drop Earrings from King Jewelers, 3. Reversible Black & White Diamond Disc Earrings from King Jewelers, 4. Diamond & Oval Sapphire Dangle Earrings from King Jewelers, 5. Black & White Diamond Pave Wave Ring from King Jewelers, 6. Pave Diamond & Black Enamel Flower Ring from King Jewelers
Naturally when we think of black and white, our first thoughts turn to diamonds. These are always a striking combination in jewelry and the pair of diamond colors looks good with any skin tone. However, not everyone may have the budget for diamonds so soon after the holidays so this iconic black and white look can also be achieved with black and white pearls, sapphires, quartz, onyx, and topaz. These gemstones easily achieve that diamond illusion with fewer price limitations.

Superstud Double Gray Cat’s Eye Bangle Bracelet from Stephen Webster, 6. Equestrian Onyx & Diamond Sterling Silver Ring from Scott Kay
The black and white jewelry frenzy is also not just limited to women. Men, who have steadily been pursuing more contemporary jewelry designs over the years, also dig the contrasting looks. This paring of black and white is found in stark geometric designs, contemporary metals, and rock ‘n roll reinterpretations. Black diamonds and black sapphires have also been choice materials for men’s modern jewelry designs this season.

Silver & Black Obsidian Cufflinks from Montblanc, 8. Mille Miglia Stainless Steel & Rubber Cufflinks from Chopard
Naturally, watches are also a fantastic choice when it comes to showing off this trend. Chanel is definitely one of the watch brands that brings the black and white contrast to life, as this color combination is what they primarily focus on in their J12 watch collections. TAG Heuer’s Formula 1 watches also make a nice use of this on the women’s model, with a stainless steel case with a single black ceramic stripe on the bracelet.

Tips for Buying Graduation Gifts

Posted on May 22, 2012 by Make Technology

It’s graduation time. That moment where your closest family members and friends receive the recognition of accomplishments and their beginning of a new journey. How do you decide what is the most appropriate gift for such an occasion? We have a few tips for you here today for men and ladies.
Keep in mind that a graduation is not only a commencement but a sense of achievement and marking of an important milestone for the rest of their life. So try to choose a gift that will not only commemorate his or her goal but will also serve as a reminder of their achievement and progression.

LADIES

Tip 1: Above and Beyond Class Rings
Class rings are great because they can commemorate a school and are customizable. You can put your name, graduation year, and little symbols and characters. But let’s be honest. How many people wear class rings after they graduate? It’s not a super bowl ring.

Instead opt for a cocktail ring. Cocktail rings are fun, colorful, and always in fashion. A good idea is to find a ring that matches her academic colors. Cocktails rings such as this rhodolite and amethyst diamond wrap ring are also very versatile and can be worn day or night with endless ensembles. If customized, one of a kind piece is what you aim to look for then you can also visit us and we can build a truly unique piece just for you. Visit our custom design page for more information.
Tip 2: Diamonds Never Fail

Diamond jewelry is one of the finest gifts for any occasion. It’s also a timeless piece that will be treasured by your graduate for many years. Diamond pendants or diamond hoops are a great gift and come in various size and styles. You can also look for matching sets of diamond jewelry such as a diamond solitaire pendant with matching diamond studs. Since diamonds are a symbol of wealth, durability and quality, every young lady deserves diamonds to mark their accomplishments and display of confidence for their future endeavors.
Tip 3: Traditionally Pearls

More recently pearl jewelry seems to be commonly overlooked as a graduation gift. In fact pearls are traditionally gifted in one’s lifetime as a symbol of accomplishment and marking of memorable moments. Graduation is one of the greatest opportunity for gifting the young lady with her first strand of pearls or even pearl pendants and bracelets are also great gifts for this occasion. Much like diamonds, pearl jewelry are classics and will always shine and display her years of hard work and success as she cherishes them for the rest of her life. Take a look at our entire collection of pearl jewelry to choose the perfect gift for your graduate.
Tip 4: Pin It

So you may not know her ring size or personal preference in particular stones and styles. Pins or brooches make it a more subtle options for a grad gift. They are great accessories that would perfectly compliment her graduation dress or any occasion in her future. A pin such as this Orange and Yellow Sapphire Pave Butterfly Pin would be a fantastic symbolic gift of growth, change, and new journeys. Plus it’s very lively and chic.

GENTLEMEN

Tip 1: Pens Mean Business

Luxury pens are a great way to commemorate a young man’s success. They give a sense of status and achievement while they also are useful. This gift to a graduate will feel like a trophy denoting their accomplishment. Luxury pens such Montblanc are very well recognized for their sophisticated and timeless elegance. There are various styles of luxury pens made of varying materials and types. Choose one that matches his personality and writing style. Who knows, this maybe the pen they use toward their next big chapter in life. Regardless of when it will be used, it’s a guarantee that it will sit on his new desk with pride.
Tip 2: Time for Real Life

Timepieces are great reminders of success and status for many men. It’s very common to be given a watch when receiving promotions or even as a retirement gift from a company. Needless to say watches denote your time and hard work towards something in particular. Watches are probably one of the most admired gifts and come in endless measures of styles, material, sizes, movements and more. There are many watches and features to fits one’s lifestyle and personality so it’s important to choose the right type of watch for your grad. It may be a good idea to give a watch with a leather bracelet such as the IWC Portuguese Blue and White watch to prepare him for more formal occasions while the colors still give a fun and unique character. Visit our Men’s Timepieces page to shop for the perfect watch for your graduate.
Tip 3: Cufflink Flare

Cufflinks are one the most exciting accessories that gives a man a chance to reflect his personality and individual look. Cufflinks are worn by men of all ages. It’s the smallest and simplest accessory that can make the largest difference in a gentlemen’s attire and now that he has graduated it’s time to get him out of sweats and into suits. He may not currently have a dress shirt that requires cufflinks, but this can easily drive a young man to recognize his progression in his career and may motivate him to update his style. Cufflinks are the perfect balance in a gift that gives sentimental value as much as it prepares him for his future. Take a look at some of our favorite Scott Kay or Dunhill cufflinks. Or if you are looking for something with more edge, then you may want to up pick up a set of Stephen Webster cufflinks for your graduate.
Tip 4: Big Money

Now it’s time for your graduate to start making the big bucks (well, at least we hope so). Either way you want to make sure you gift your graduate with the proper gift that stands as a positive reminder of his accomplishments. A good way to determine the right gift is the balance of individuality, class and masculinity. The money clip balances all three perfectly and the velcro wallet does not. Money clips exemplify status, potential growth and stability. This is the perfect gift to round up all his loose cash in his pockets and update his form of handling money. A cool Dunhill silver diamond pattern money clip like this will serves as a positive reminder of his present success as well as his future financial success. Browse and shop our money clips here.

The Tables Have Turned: Leap Year Proposals

Posted on February 20, 2012 by Make Technology

PostcardLeapYearMaidensAre1908 — Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia

Ladies, get your rings ready. This year is a leap year and according to British Isles tradition, women can propose to men on February 29th. It’s hard to say when this tradition started, but it has been around for several hundred years. It came from a time when women had to wait for a proposal rather than take charge themselves. But in the same way that the leap year balances the calendar (365 days in a year versus the 365 days and 6 hours it takes for the earth to orbit the sun) it evens the gender playing field. In the 1800s and 1900s leap year postcards depicting women plotting to snag a man were rather popular.

White Gold Beveled Men’s Ring

However, the fine for refusing a woman’s proposal back then could be hefty. In Denmark, the man was supposed to give the rejected woman twelve pairs of gloves to hide the embarrassment of not having a ring. In Finland, the woman was owed enough fabric to make herself a skirt. In Norway, Queen Margaret of Scotland issued several fines ranging from a kiss, to one pound in money, to gloves, or a silk gown.
While leap year proposals may seem like an amusing old tradition, the fact is that more and more women every year are the ones popping the question. Surveys have said that anywhere from 5-7% of women have proposed to their boyfriends and this trend has lead to the development of men’s engagement (“mangagement”) rings. Even if the woman hasn’t done the proposing, it’s now fairly common for both men and women to sport rings to indicate their engagement. After all, women aren’t the only ones who like diamonds.

The Essentials of Hoop Earrings

Posted on December 5, 2011 by Make Technology

When it comes to accessories, few things are as ubiquitous as a pair of hoop earrings. They come in all shapes, sizes, and manners of decoration and there is not a situation in which this indispensable piece of jewelry cannot be worn. When nothing else seems to work, hoop earrings are the go-to pièce de résistance, which is why no jewelry collection is complete without a pair.

Types of Hoop Earrings

Classic Metal Hoops

Pianegonda Sterling Silver Hoop Earrings OAFR0409

The most classic hoop design that comes to mind are simple round wire hoops made of solid gold, sterling silver, or platinum and can be made to match anything. You can wear a small understated pair of hoops to give a classic touch to whatever you’re wearing or you can go all out and wear larger hoops that make a statement. Large hoop earrings are an excellent way to show off your cheekbones, but be aware that they will draw attention to your neck if that’s something you want to avoid. Also, be sure to make sure that larger hoops are as lightweight as possible so that they don’t put too much stress on your earlobes throughout the day. Hoops with hinged backs will be able to hold more weight securely as well.
Diamond Hoops

Roberto Coin Diamond Inside-Out Small Hoop Earrings 001041AWERX0

Diamond hoops are a simple way to add a little sparkle to your look. They are commonly set halfway around the outside of the hoop, but some may also have diamonds all the way around the outside of the hoop as well as the inside to maximize bling capacity. There are many sizes of diamond hoop earrings from the accented to the attention grabbing, to fit any style.
Hugging Hoops

Roberto Coin Jewelry Fantasia Gold and Gem Flower Earrings 211384AWERBD

These are hoop earrings that are short enough that they “hug” the earlobe. These earrings frequently feature gemstones and carved designs and an oval shape is the most popular. Since they are shorter and catch things less, huggie hoop earrings are more able to withstand daily wear. These hoops often have a hinged enclosure for easier wear.
