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.

If you’d rather have something else other then earrings with a citrine stone, you can always check out our citrine jewelry offer.

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

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…

Marcasite and Mother of Pearl Dragonfly Brooch

JohnnyR — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 15:28:00 +0000

Brooches seem to be pretty popular amongst our customers as of late. It looks like, out of all our Marcasite Jewellery Products, brooches are appreciated most. Which is why I’m presenting you one of the latest addition to our online inventory, the Dragonfly Marcasite and Mother of Pearl Brooch.

I for one have seen my fair share of dragonfly brooches, and let me say that most of the ones I’ve seen are just not good enough. They’re big and loud and really don’t cut it. This one piece of jewellery however, has such a great manufacture you expect the dragonfly to just come to life and fly away at any moment

So, if there is a really special, refined lady in your life, this might just make the perfect gift for her!

Children’s Birthstone Necklace - Silver Guardian Angel

martin — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 07:35:00 +0000

Another part of the Kit Heath designer children’s collection are these pretty silver guardian angels. Standing on a circular birthstone, you can choose the one for the month required. The picture to the left is peridot which is the august birthstone and a rather fetching green.

The silver chain is 12 inches long but it has a 2 inch extender if required so will fit a wide range of children. It’s a solid 4.5 grams in weight.

As with all Kit Heath jewellery, it comes in a very nice designer presentation box - the children’s box is a colourful red and includes a bag as well which is ideal for this childs necklace.

All in all, this kids birthstone necklace is a great present - choose the childs birth month and you’re away!

Kit Heath Children’s Alphabet Beads

martin — Thu, 02 Aug 2007 17:27:45 +0000

A new feature of the Kit Heath children’s silver range of jewellery are the beads. They are mainly letters but there also other types of symbols such as butterflies, heart, dots etc. There are special bead necklaces and bead bracelets that are designed to go with the Kit Heath beads and they’re not static. What I mean by that is one day, your child might want her name spelt out on her bracelet or necklace. The next day, however, she might want her pets name, or friend or whatever

The beads are 0.8cm across and they’re made of silver and coloured enamel - both sides have the letter on it but with different coloured enamel for greater versatility.

These beads and necklaces / bracelets make wonderful gifts and we’ve only had them up a few days and they’ve been selling well - they make great gifts. In fact, we recently went to France and in a local restaurant was a lovely waitress who is often helped by her daughter - Samia. We thought it would be nice to send a bracelet with her name in beads. We will be going back soon and even though we can’t understand each other, I hope to see the look on her face when she wears it.

Take a look at our range in the alphabet bead category - part of the children’s jewellery category.

There is a great selection of new items from pretty bracelets to cute necklaces. Children’s earrings and bracelets are there too which is good to see.

Both of these I’ll write a seperate post about as I feel they deserve it.

Silver brooches always go down well as gifts and we at Milton Gems have a nice range. Here are a couple of new marcasite brooches that caught our eye so much so that we put on our site.

What do you think of the image to the left? The two cats cuddling - one with mainly marcasite and a silver collar, the other is silver with a marcasite collar. This would be a perfect gift for either a marcasite brooch lover or a cat lover.

Below we have a nice silver and marcasite dragonfly brooch - dragonfly jewellery has long been a favourite on Milton Gems and we have a range.

Busy, Busy, Busy in the Children’s Jewellery world

martin — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 07:32:19 +0000

For a lot of people, thoughts of Christmas is a long way off - even though the weather we’re currently having is hardly summer-like! However, it’s at this time of year that we (at Milton Gems) put together new ranges that are being brought out at this time of the year in time for Christmas. This means that there’s always a lot of new and exciting items going onto the site which is one of the reasons that there’s not been a blog entry for a while - there’s just so much going on!

But I’ll try and bring you up to speed on what’s been added - I’m sure you’ll like it!

The popular range - D for Diamonds - has had a lot of items added. Hearts, fairies and horse jewellery are popular at the moment and as always, all D for Diamonds come with a presentation box.

Something else I’m pleased about is that Kit Heath, the widely awarded silver jewellery designer, is in the process of bringing out a new and updated range of Kit Heath children’s jewellery - it is an exclusive range and we’re one of the few who have been chosen to supply the items. Everything comes in a stylish and colourful designer presentation box and bag and I’m sure you’ll love the new pieces - I like the beaded initials which will go down a storm. We shall be getting stock in a few days and I shall be putting the items on as soon as they’re available.

Also on the theme of children’s jewellery, we have added quite a few items to our popular Christening jewellery range especially the christening bracelets, christening pendants and christening earrings. Our Christening bangles remain extremely popular and we’ve also added some more especially non-adjustable ones that are perfect for engraving your Christening message (we don’t engrave, I need to add).

One thing that we are working on is Boys jewellery - we have a nice range but I want to add more and we will be doing in the very near future.

Anyway, that’s a bit of news with regards to our updates on Children’s jewellery. I’ll do a seperate post for adults - just so I don’t confuse things!

Child’s Silver Alphabet Christening Bangle

This is a popular bangle of ours - we call it the alphabet bangle simply because it has all the letters of the alphabet engraved on it and is a perfect Christening gift.

Perfect for giving to a baby on their special day, this Christening bangle is adjustable for the perfect fit. This bangle is from the D For Diamonds range and, as such, includes a diamond and comes packeged in a presentation box.

We at Milton Gems have just started to add Celtic jewellery to our range of jewellery. At the moment, the lions share are from the designer, Kit Heath, who is knows for using the classical Celtic style of flowing, organic lines in their jewellery.

To make it easier to browse, we’ve added multiple categories - Celtic earrings, Celtic pendants, Celtic brooches, Celtic necklaces, Celtic bangles and Celtic bracelets.

Take a look - I’m sure you’ll like the silver Celtic jewellery that you see.

Silver Bracelets - A Category Walkthrough

martin — Thu, 03 May 2007 08:20:10 +0000

There are three pages of silver bracelets and on the first page, the piece that stands out as being the mosts popular is the one to the left - a green agate bracelet set in sterling silver.

Agate is extremely popular in the east and is becoming more and more so over here. Green agate jewellery has the deepness of colour that isn’t abundant in the market place at the moment.

All in all - a very nice piece.

Page two of the bracelets category and the most popular item is a piece from the famous designer, Kit Heath.

The bracelet has 5 dainty, open hearts linked together. As with all Kit Heath items it comes with a deluxe presentation box so it’s ready to give as a gift straight away. Of course - you also have the option of having it giftwrapped.

To be honest, the 2nd silver bracelet page had a couple of items that could have been listed here - there’s some nice pieces.

Last silver bracelet page (at the moment…we’re always growing!) and there’s this silver t-bar bracelet there.

The bracelet is 7 3/4 inches long and is made of chunky silver with a t-bar fastening. Included with this bracelet is deluxe packaging and also free UK Special Delivery postage.

So - that’s it for the silver bracelet walkthrough. We do have other bracelets e.g. christening bracelets, marcasite bracelets and Celtic bracelets and I will be running through those soon.

Silver and Paua Shell Butterfly Pendant

martin — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 12:00:07 +0000

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.

This butterfly pendant is shaped like a butterfly in silver and inlaid with paua shell. It comes from the famous designer Kit Heath and while it doesn’t include a chain, one can be ordered at the same time.

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

See What I Saw at EmperorJewels.com

I just thought I’d pass on a new site I found - called Emperor Jewels and is a US based jewellery site selling titanium, tungsten, stainless steel but mainly gold (in multiple colours such as rose, yellow and white gold). They have the normal section for womens jewellery but they also have mens and childrens jewellery.

They send out orders with free postage over $99 and all in all, it was a nice surf - they had a good range of items and pieces that caught my eye was a 14k gold onyx ring and a 14k gold men’s chain necklace which were very nice too. It’s easy to fill up your shopping cart and then the hard decisions have to be made…

Children’s Lockets

We at Milton Gems have a nice selection of children’s lockets in our Children’s range of jewellery - both in silver and in gold.

Made to have a little keepsake placed in it such as a picture, lockets and chains keep something loved close to their heart. A nice childs locket would also make a great Christening gift.

Our most popular childs locket can be seen to the left - it comes in a lilac coloured musical gift box and is a pretty little silver locket on a chain. Our most popular gold childs locket is heart shaped with pink enamel and has a little diamond in the centre. It comes with a lilac box.

Below I’ve shown some more images of our range of children’s lockets.

Bridesmaids - Such An Important Part Of A Wedding

martin — Wed, 04 Apr 2007 07:54:32 +0000

Certainly, the bride is the major part of the wedding but you can’t forget the bridesmaids. Traditionally they are to help the bride on her big day, make sure she’s ready and gets to the Church properly and so on, but they are an integral part of the ceremony.

We at Milton Gems have put together a range of bridesmaid jewellery that we feel would complement each other at the wedding. Simple, subtle and elegant, these pieces are made to be admired. While the bridesmaid bracelets, earrings, necklaces, bangle, etc. are for adults, many people give younger bridesmaids gifts from our Children’s jewellery range - we even have pieces that could be given to young pageboys!

So, all in all, say thank you to your helpers and help them stand out in the wedding photographs with beautiful bridesmaid jewellery from Milton Gems.

Emerald Jewellery Set in Gold

Diamond jewellery may be a girls best friend, but sometimes it is emerald that is loved - the birthstone of may and with the majority of our jewellery, diamonds complement the emerald and gold.

We have just been adding some more emerald pieces - mainly emerald earrings and emerald pendants and all set in 9ct gold - ready for may when it’s the traditional gift to give to a loved one.

Sweet Silver Baby Jewellery

martin — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 16:08:56 +0000

Call me a softy but it’s nice to see a baby that’s all pink and cute and arounds its little wrist is a nice piece of baby jewellery. Take the image of the silver baby bangle to the left as an example - it’s silver and has Angel written on it which is quite appropriate. It is adjustable and it suitable for a baby from 0 to 2 years (depending on his or her size, of course).

We also have babies bracelets so take a look and see what your little one would look best with and we even have a category for baby boy jewellery.
