Theodora is in charge again (sorry)

26 Tuesday Jan 2016

I’m at the Tucson gem show on a buying trip from Jan. 29 to Feb. 10 2016, which means Theodora is minding the shop. She is notoriously bad at filling orders, so if you buy anything between those dates it won’t be delivered until I return to Vancouver.

But if you see a piece you want on the website, I would recommend you reserve it.

In the meantime, here’s a glimpse of some of some pearl designs that are so limited I don’t put them in the online shop. I’m calling this my Suffragette line — a big, bold baroque pearl crowned with purple and green stones. These were the campaign colours for the Suffragettes fighting for the vote in the early 20th century.

Who says you can’t fight for your rights and be stylish too?

And here’s a variation on the style. These baroque peacock pearls are topped with a frill of iolite, cubic zirconia, and amethysts to bring out the shades of purple in the iridescent pearls. They recently found their way into fundraiser for a children’s hospital.

Have some wine, Monday

pearls, Taste the World, Vancouver Designers

 

Of all the many occasions that demand wine, I have to say that Monday is high up on my list.

And a Monday that comes with a good cause and wine? Well, what could be better!

Which is why a pair of my pearl earrings will be attending Taste the World, a wine tasting to raise money for children’s hospitals in Myanmar. It’s happening this Monday, January 25, at Vancouver’s Four Seasons Hotel. You can learn more about the organization and get tickets here.

Unfortunately, I can’t be there. But a pair of my pearl drop earrings will be part of their silent auction. These earrings star some large, showy iridescent baroque pearls, about 21 mm long on sterling silver hooks. They’re topped with a tutu of faceted iolite, cubic zirconia, and amethysts to pick-up the flashing shades of purple in the pearls.

They’re one of a kind – I designed them specifically for this fundraiser – and they’re priced at $235.

So, if you have some time on Monday evening, and are in search of some fine wine, I can’t think of better place to find it.
