These gorgeous earrings from the Iced Gems collection by designer Kit Heath are 33 by 12 millimeters, and go perfectly with the necklace presented here by me the other day.

They’re a really classy pair of earrings and the girlfriend is looking at their picture with lust in here eyes right now at the time I’m writing this article. Too bad for he she’s not born in December, hihihi.

Teardrop Shaped Turquoise Stud Earrings

JohnnyR — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 13:23:00 +0000

Here’s something interesting about turquoise: initially, this substance was known by a lot of different names, but the word turquoise was derived around 16th century from French, either from the word for Turkish (Turquois) or dark-blue stone (which is pierre turquin in french). Although turquoise doesn’t occur in Turkey, it was heavily traded at turkish bazaars to the venetian merchants, which then brought it to Europe, so this might have been a bit of a misconception Just a funny thing which I thought you might like to know.

Moving on to today’s item, this pair of teardrop turquoise earrings come from Kit Heath’s Vintage collection, and they include a presentation box as do all of our Kit Heath products. The stones are natural and have a blue-ish colour.

They come mounted on a sterling silver setting. If you want to give these as a gift, you can order the gift wrap for only £2 from the product page.

Circular Silver Pendant with Citrine

JohnnyR — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 12:51:00 +0000

Yes, Anna from Manchester, that nice pair of citrine earrings I showed you yesterday does, in fact, have a complementary necklace And, as I promised you on the phone last evening, here’s a picture and a short presentation of it:

The design is basically the same as for the earrings, made out of two circles (well, three if you count the stone as a separate one). It does not include a chain, but order whichever type and length you like on the product page, as we have a wide selection here at Milton Gems.

Oval Silver and Turquoise Necklace

JohnnyR — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 13:04:00 +0000

Seems that the sterling silver jewllery with turquoise stones I posted about on our blog here at Milton Gems was a big success.

Or is it just that December’s coming, and turquoise being the birthstone of December the reason why you’ve shown such a big interested in it?

Don’t really, know, but either way, by popular request, here’s another superb piece of jewellery, a silver oval necklace with turquoise stone!

It’s fairly big at 35 millimeters in length and 1 and a half centimeters wide, and includes a chain as well which is about 16 inches long.

A nice presentation box is also included, so this makes a great out of the box gift, which you can immediately hang right at your girlfriend’s neck

Circular Citrine Drop Earrings

JohnnyR — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 12:42:00 +0000

Earrings are one of our best sold items, and these circular citrine ones from Kit Heat’s Organics collection are a nice piece of handwork.

Hi-quality, natural citrine on a very narrow 925 sterling silver setting, they also have a second silver circle surrounding the one with the stone. Here’s a picture for you, to better grasp what I’m talking about:

These come with a nice presentation box, and they’re about 3.2 centimeters in length and 1.8 centimeters wide.

If these are not really to your taste (maybe you just don’t like circles ), please check out more citrine jewellery choices.

Turquoise and Silver Ovals Drop Earrings

JohnnyR — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 12:27:00 +0000

Today I will show you a really nice pair of earrings from the Kit Heath Iced Gems series, made out of 925 sterling silver and with genuine turquoise stones.

Pay attention though, as these are pretty long at over 5 centimeters in length, and might not be for everybody. There are ladies out there that don’t like longer earrings, or they simply don’t fit them.

So while these might not be for everybody, those women that enjoy longer earrings will definitely like these silver setting with turquoise stone earrings.

Turquoise and Silver Ovals Bracelet

JohnnyR — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 12:03:00 +0000

Today I want to talk to you a bit about the birthstone of December, turquoise. For those of you unfamiliar with this rare stone, it’s an opaque, blue to green mineral that has been prized both as a gem and ornamental stone for thousands of years.

I for one really like the colour of turquoise. In my humble opinion, it looks really great on a silver setting. Take a look at this silver bracelet with turquoise stones:

True enough: the silver is very craftily positioned around the three blue-greenish stones. The shape of the stones is accompanied very nicely byt the silver oval-shaped rings as well. It’s about 7 ½ inches long, and indeed a really nice piece of work by designer Kit Heath, and only one of the many jewelery choices on our turquoise jewellery selection!

Oval Citrine and Silver Drop Earrings

JohnnyR — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 11:46:00 +0000

I wanted to include this in yesterday’s post but I had to run, so I’m telling you about these silver drop earrings with oval citrine now. They go together perfectly with the Oval Citrine and Silver Necklace from yesterday, in fact they’re part of the same set.

They’re fairly long at almost 3 centimeters in length and they’re about 1 centimeter wide.

They come with their own presentation box, like all our Kit Heath jewllery, but if you want to order them as a set to go with the citrine necklace, then make sure you let us know on the order page and we’ll pack them together for you.

Oval Citrine and Silver Necklace

JohnnyR — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 11:34:00 +0000

This silver necklace with an oval citrine stone comes from designer kit heath, and it not only includes a 16 inches silver necklace, but also a nice presentation box.

This one is ready to wear out of the box, so it would be the perfect gift for someone that’s born in November – as I said before to those that didn’t already knew this, citrine is the birthstone of November and it’s customary to give gifts with citrine stones to those celebrating their birthday this month.

Teardrop Shaped Citrine Necklace

JohnnyR — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 07:16:00 +0000

These lovely citrine necklace would make a nice gift for a lady born in November. Not sure if you were aware of this or not, but Citrine is the birthstone of November and all our citrine stones are the organic, original ones, and no the cheap glass variety you can find people selling nowadays.

Shaped like a teardrop, this necklace is on the smaller side, with only 12 mm in height and 8 mm in width, so you might want to give this to a pretty little lady who deserves it *wink*.

A presentation box is included as is with all our Kit Heath products, and a necklace (which is not included) can be ordered hassle free right from the product page.

Oval Amethyst Drop Earrings

JohnnyR — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 06:11:00 +0000

Out of all the beautiful birthstones we have on jewellry here ate Milton Gems, Amethyst must be one of my favorite ones. Or maybe it’s just that I love purple, I don’t know, but I truly honestly believe this pair of amethyst drop earrings are simply gorgeous!

I like the way the stone is cut on these ones best. It has a lot of facets, some small and some larger, but they’re all clean-cut and capture the light in a special way.

The 925 sterling silver setting designer Kit Heath has been using is shiny and bright and helps bring out the glow of the stones.

Other then being the perfect gift for anyone born in february, our amethyst jewellery selection is both classy and styled, and all for a fair price

Flower Shaped Marcasite Pendant

JohnnyR — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 05:59:00 +0000

I’ve heard it both ways: some say it looks like a two stars pendant, some say it looks like flowers, but either way it’s just as pretty.

It’s fairly large, just below 4 centimeters in length, and it has a nice engraving made out of marcasite stones on a sterling silver setting.

I was thinking of buying something like this for granny as a classy Christmas gift, but I haven’t decided exactly which of the marcasite jewellery I should get, other then the fact that I’ve already decided it will be something with marcasite stones.

Teardrop Shaped Citrine Drop Earrings

JohnnyR — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 13:52:00 +0000

Yesterday I showed you a really nice pair of earrings, but I realize now those might not be for everybody. I certainly like them and so do my myspace female friends I asked what they thought, but some women would rather wear something smaller.

To these ladies I would suggest this lovely pair of citrine teardrop shaped earrings which are pretty light in both weight and size, at about 23 mm in height and only 2 grams or so.

The earrings come with a presentation box from our designer, and can be assorted to our Teardrop Shaped Citrine Necklace, for a really fresh, nice looking set.

Twisted Silver and Amethyst Drop Earrings

JohnnyR — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 13:42:00 +0000

Not sure if you remember but last week I showed you a piece from our inventory from designer kit heath, a twisted silver and amethyst pendant. And from the looks of things, I wasn’t the only one who appreciated it, since I receive quite a couple emails asking if we had matching earrings for that pendant (which we didn’t have at the time).

Well folks, I have good news for all of you which asked that questions: we’ve just got matching Twisted Silver and Amethyst Drop Earrings and they’re ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!

About 5 cm long, these things of beauty also include a nice presentation box, which comes in handy when if you’re buying them to give as a present.

Of course, if you want to go overboard, we can always gift wrap them for you for a measly £2, thus making sure there’s not additional hoops for you to go through

Heart Shaped Marcasite Locket

JohnnyR — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 13:27:00 +0000

So the girlfriend was a bit upset this weekend when I stayed out a bit too much on Friday night with the guys. What can I say… it’s not my fault she doesn’t like the pub, I asked her to go along. She didn’t wanna go and it’s still me that is responsible? I don’t get this stuff sometimes…

Anyways, I managed to make it better buy buying her this marcasite locket that’s shaped like a heart, and although it cost me £40 it was worth it, cuz now I won’t have to get her anything for our anniversary this month. In fact I made sure of it and I told here this was an early present.

Of course, I also put a nice picture of us inside (one which she likes) and I also picked up a nice silver necklace from the store. Let’s just say everything’s fine in the “family” now

By the way, I was also considering this other heart with silver filigree, from kit heath, but ultimately decided to go for the locket, since I wanted to add that personal touch with the picture of us.

Oval Amethyst Pendant

JohnnyR — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 13:52:00 +0000

I must give it to the guy: Kit Heath did a wonderful job on this one. The stone is so nicely cut and it catches the light in a special way. With a setting of 925 sterling silver, this oval pendant with amethyst stone is about 16 mm tall and 8 mm wide. Just the perfect size, in case anybody cares what I think

This particular pendant does not include a chain, but in case you don’t already have the perfect chain to hang this on, feel free to order one straight from the product page. You can count on the fact that there’s always a good selection of chains available here at Milton Gems.

Silver and Marcasite Cat Brooch

JohnnyR — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 13:42:00 +0000

Do you have an aunt that simply loves cats? Or maybe a dear friend that has one of these lovely animals in her lap all the time? Do you, yourself, love these superb creatures and would like to have something to remind you of your real pet while you’re away from home?

Then what better way to show your appreciation for these beloved animals then this really sweet cat brooch made out of marcasite on a silver setting?

It shows two cats from behind, which appear to be lovers (by the way they are “holding tails” too I like to think that the black one is the guy, and the silver kitty with the marcasite necklace is the female.

But I digress – they’re just nice and cuddly and they would make the perfect gift for any cat lover out there.

And, as always, just in case, I want to point you to our marcasite jewellery page, where you will find a wide variety of brooches and what not.

Amethyst Celtic Knot Pendant

JohnnyR — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 12:56:00 +0000

The knot is is one of the best known motifs in Celtic jewelry and art. There are quite a few celtic symbol guides available that list variations of the celtic knots, but many of the purported meanings of the symbols are actually made up. Believe it or not, some folks would con you into buying their trinkets or jewellery by telling you their designs mean “love” or “honour” or whatever else, when there are in fact no known authentic knotwork designs meaning such things.

So I won’t tell you that this pendant from Kit Heath means “undying love” or “forever faithful” or anything like that. But I will tell you instead that it is one of the best stylized representations of a celtic knot you will ever find in a pendant.

It’s quite lovely really; the clear, purple amethyst stone on the shiny silver bed give it a feeling of distinctiveness which you won’t find in many pieces. The chain is not included, but it can be ordered without any hassle right on the product page in any length you find to be most appropriate.

Also, feel free to browse our selection of amethyst jewlery, maybe there’s something else that catches your eye and that you will like even better. To each his own…

Circular Citrine Stud Earrings

JohnnyR — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 11:09:00 +0000

Howdy fellows,

Hope everyone’s having a nice day, even if the weather is somewhat lacking… as usual.

Remember that circular citrine and silver necklace I talked to you about the other day? Well, turns out we also have matching circular citrine stud earrings to go with them.

Made from the same materials as the necklace, these sterling silver earrings include a nice presentation box as well, so you needn’t worry about wrapping.

And remember, these are just one of the many models on our citrine jewellery page.

Flower Shaped Marcasite Stud Earrings

JohnnyR — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 10:59:00 +0000

Hello friends,

Packing an order for one of our customers yesterday I noticed this pair of silver earrings with marcasite stones that I didn’t even know were in our inventory (as some of you know, I’m rather new here at Milton Gems).

I must say, the finesse of the handiwork on these earrings is quite impressive. They’re not too small, at 14 mm in diameter, but not too big either, and they’re shaped in the form of flower petals. I bet they’d make a pretty set, combined with our double marcasite star pendant which you can find here.

Other vintage marcasite jewellery choices can be found here.

Twisted Silver and Amethyst Pendant

JohnnyR — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:19:00 +0000

Funny story about amethyst folks. The name comes from the Ancient Greek a- ("not") and methustos ("intoxicated"), and these poor people actually believed that the stone protected them from drunkenness. Now, why the bloody hell would anyone want to protect himself from that, I do not know, but apparently these fellows made drinking vessels out of amethyst in the hopes they would not get intoxicated with liquor.

I can’t promise you that this Amethyst Stones Silver Twist Pendant will do you any good in that regard, but what I can promise is that you will be wearing one of the hottest items on our inventory. I mean… just look at it. Have you ever seen anything this pretty?

It comes from designer Kit Heath, and the Silver chain is not included. No worries tho, you can easily order one on the same page you’re getting your pendant from.

As always, our site offer you a nice variety of amethyst jewellery.

Circular Citrine and Silver Necklace

JohnnyR — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 08:58:43 +0000

I’m not sure if you were aware of this or not, but The beautiful birthstone of November, citrine, is a pretty rare precious stone. It’s why we get so many fake ones on the market these days. Mostly cheap, lousy colored glass.

Rest assured though, at Milton Gems you will always find the genuine thing. Our citrine stones come straight from Rio Grande do Sul, in exotic Brazil, and are of the highest quality.

So is the manufacture of this lovely citrine necklace I’m about to show you. It comes from Kit Heat, it’s about 16 inches long and made from Sterling Silver, so you can be sure it’ll last you for a long time.

If this lovely necklace is not quite your style, you can always find more citrine jewellery here…

Paua shell comes from the seas around New Zealand and the beautiful green and blue colours are used to great effect in paua shell jewellery.

All in all, this silver pendant is a pretty piece and certainly a talking point for all butterfly lovers.

A Few New Silver Charms

martin — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 16:25:32 +0000

Today we’ve added a few new silver charms to our collection. One that I think will be popular is pictured to the left – they’re initials charms. You can choose the letter you want and because of the way they’re made (with a lobster claw) they can be attached to a chain to make an initial necklace, or bracelet. They can even be added, of course, to handbags, zips, mobile phones and the like. Perfect for giving to someone you love – just don’t forget and send them the wrong letter!

Two other charms we’ve added are shown below - a pair of scissors charm and a flower flip flop charm. The scissors don’t open (just wanted to put that in) but as with all our charms, they’re incredibly detailed and would be a great gift to give to a hairdresser. The flip flop is pink and green enamel set in silver and made to remind you of summer days!

I shall be putting more silver charms up tomorrow – I think it might be a heart day in honour of Valentines Day that’s just been.

The designing team at Kit Heath are famous for making beautiful silver pendants and this example of amethyst jewellery (amethyst is also the february birthstone) certainly shows their skill at making simple and elegant pieces of jewellery.

The twisted silver pendant drops approx 45mm and has an eye at the top for your chain to go through (chain not included, as always). At the bottom, it has 4 amethyst stones getting progressively smaller the higher they go.

Made of sterling silver and includes a designer presentation box you can also have it giftwrapped for a present.

This is where you can find more of our silver pendants.

Body Jewellery / Belly Bars Added

martin — Sat, 25 Nov 2006 14:45:06 +0000

Well, we’ve added a dozen belly bars to our body jewellery category now. All are silver fitted to 316L surgical steel bars so they’re safe to wear unlike cheaper belly bars. A lot have cubic zirconia stones which really catch the light – if you’re in a club they shine brightly which is always a bonus.

We have two pages of the belly bars at the moment – belly bar page 1 and belly bar page 2.

There are some nice ones – we’re going to put up about a dozen belly bars. I shall make another posting listing items a bit later.

I’ve just finished putting up an extra half a dozen silver bangles – feel free to click any of the images below and you will go straight to the page. Christmas is coming up and bangles make an excellent present – they are substantial, look good wrapped up and a fairly sensible cost for friends.

All the new bangles are of silver without any gemstones – simple says a lot, often, and are certainly stylish.

We have two pages of silver bangles – bangle page 1 and bangle page 2. Check them out.

The titles of the new items are: Balinese silver bangle, silver figure of eight bangle, simple silver bangle, twisted silver bangle, waved bangle.

Silver Jewellery

martin — Mon, 06 Nov 2006 14:41:05 +0000

Silver jewellery has been popular for thousands of years but it has increased in popularity recently for a number of reasons. Silver being cheaper than gold, is often used to make more experimental jewellery – with gold jewellery, the cost of the finished pieces means that they need to be sure that the piece will sell in the current market so more conservative/mainstream designs are created. Silver jewellery is the opposite – which is one of the reasons why the more striking pieces of jewellery are silver.

We at Milton Gems especially love silver jewellery – certainly, we have gold but silver is where our heart is.

So, when you see any jewellery listed on our site – unless it’s specifically in a gold category, it’s silver. For example, the children’s jewellery is silver as is bridesmaid jewellery and marcasite jewellery is to.

Enjoy the silver – we do!

Fancy a silver bangle? More added!

I was looking at Milton Gems this morning and I realised that we didn’t have a silver bangle category and, to be honest, I didn’t know why. We have bangles on the site (in bridesmaid jewellery, for example) but not a specific silver bangle category. So, without further ado, I went about and collected some of our most popular and put them in their own section of the website.

The majority are from the designer Kit Heath and we even have a marcasite bangle which has proven popular with people who like the dark effect with silver.

As always, if there’s a specific type of jewellery you’d like to see on the site, contact us and we will see what we can do.
