JEWELRY:

GOOD THINGS COME IN THREES, AND WHAT BETTER TRIO THAN THREE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF CARTIER’S ICONIC “TRINITY RING”.  Check each one out below:

CARTIER 18k “Large Tri-Tone Trinity Ring” Size 5

Let’s start big in the collection with this thick band version of the Trinity Ring, a more collectible style than the slimmer bands.  This style is the complete Trinity, three interwoven bands in three separate colored gold.  Each band is either 18k  rose, white or yellow toned, and each one measures 5 mm.  These bands will swirl around each other in a soothing organic movement that is an iconic Cartier style.  The rose gold band is etched with the CARTIER signature, for that added designer touch.   Size 5 or European 50.  Sold with original box and paperwork from 2013.  Currently retailing for $2,390.  Priced at $1,400. 

 

CARTIER 18k “Tri-Tone Trinity Ring” Size 3

This style was first designed by Louis Cartier himself back in 1924, and the timeless design has become a favorite for consumers throughout the decades.   The second ring we have is the same 18k tri-toned gold bands but with each band measuring only 3 mm, the standard size offered by Cartier.  In the late 1980’s and 1990’s, Cartier re-branded their items with “Le Must de Cartier”, aka the must have pieces from Cartier.  This ring is from 1999, has this phrase etched on the rose gold band instead of the current CARTIER signature they use today.  Due to the small size of this ring it would ideally be worn as a pinky ring or pendant on a chain of any color metal.  Size 3 or European 45.  Sold with original box and paperwork.  Currently retailing for $1,340.  Priced at $699.

CARTIER 18k “White Gold Trinity Ring” Size 4 3/4 – SOLD

Re-imagine this ring as a pendant on a silver chain, and you will have a whole new way to wear it!  Our last version of this Trinity ring is made of all 18k white gold bands, each measuring 3 mm.  Wear this with all of your silver toned jewelry to add a simple yet elegant extra touch.  The white gold is slightly more of an oxidized color due to wear and age, but still shines nicely and is priced accordingly.   Size 4 3/4, or European 49.  Sold with original box.  Currently retails for $1,340.  Priced at $599. SOLD

NAVA ZAHAVI COLLECTION

Nava Zahavi has been creating amazing pieces of jewelry for the past 15 years, and her styles are always reflective of the beauty of nature.  She once said, “What I love most about my jewelry is bringing beauty into the lives of those who wear it. It’s about sharing my culture and experience with others through art, color and texture, infused with a calming sense of timelessness”. *

NAVA ZAHAVI 18k Rutilated Quartz Ring Size 6.25

Zahavi uses rutilated quartz to evoke the feeling of a sunny sandy beach, with the natural gold lines that grow in the stone reflecting the texture of sunlight hitting the grains of sand.   Each rutilation in this stone that measures 21 mm x 16 mm, is a gold tone and is grown in an organic matrix of lines that cross each other in sporadic ways.  This large stone is set in 18k hammered yellow gold which creates even more gold tones along the edge to match the gold rutilations within.  Zahavi makes her jewelry with 24k yellow gold bezel today, but this piece is from her early collections that did feature 18k.  Size 6 1/4.  Sold with protective pouch.  Retailed for approximately $1,400.  Priced at $699.

NAVA ZAHAVI Onyx 24K and Sterling Ring Size 6.75  –  SOLD

Stare into the depths of this pitch black onyx stone and be amazing at how much light can reflect within its darkness due to the faceted edge.  This stone is a large oval shape that measures 21 mm x 15 mm and is quite a statement for any finger, all while remaining a wearable neutral.  A 24k yellow gold foil bezel is hand formed around this gem and set on top of a heavy sterling band.  Make sure to check out the matching earrings at the end of the blog!  Size 6 3/4.  Sold with protective pouch.  Retailed approximately $1,150.  Priced at $599. SOLD

NAVA ZAHAVI Labradorite, 24k and Sterling Ring Size 6.75

Every time we see a new Labradorite stone, we fall farther and farther in love with this mesmerizing gem.  Each stone reflects a different palette of colors; from bright blues, deep olive greens and even icy grey tones.  The stone featured in the ring we offer today, shines in the bright blue tones with small hints of shimmering grey.  The stone sits high on the finger to really help reflect the light that hits it, and measures 17 mm by 11 mm in a faceted oval shape.  Zahavi’s signature hand detailed 24k yellow gold foil wraps around this stone in an organic bezel and the sterling band has etched sides indicative of wood grain.  Size 6 3/4.  Sold with protective pouch.  Retailed for approximately $1,000.  Priced at $499.

NAVA ZAHAVI Onyx, 24k and Sterling Stud Earrings – SOLD

If you fell in love with the Onyx ring featured above, then you should definitely consider grabbing these earrings and completing your set!  These small studs are a stunning look for evening, yet neutral enough to make your everyday pair.  Stones measure a 6mm square and are wrapped in 24k yellow gold foil on a sterling post back.  Sold with protective pouch.  Retailed for $400.  Priced at $199.

LA PEPITA 18k Yellow Gold Stacked Band Ring w/18k White Gold + Diamond Bar Size 5.5
