Happy Birthday "January Girls"!

Happy New Year!

First off, we'd like to say congratulations to Jack Bartley, the winner of the foursome to Granite Links!!

Second, happy birthday to all of us born in January.

The birthstone of January is Garnet- a dark reddish, brown stone. Many people do not know that Garnets actually come in all colors except for blue. Not a fan of the dark red/brown stone? Check out Rhodolite Garnet- a very rich, pinky, red stone. This is my personal favorite- as I am a January Birthday.

Your 2009 "To-Do" List

All of us here at Santisi & Bove would like to wish you a happy and healthy 2009! With the busy holidays behind us, it's now time to get to scratch some items off your "to do" list:

Now is the time to get your appraisals updated:
Insurance cases to replace stolen, lost or damaged jewelry can become much more complicated when appraisals have not been updated, yet many of us have original or outdated appraisals filed with our insurance companies. Updating your appraisals is an urgent task for 2009, given the dramatic rise in the cost of both precious metals and diamonds. It's worth the small fee to have peace of mind and know that you're covered for the full value of your jewelry.

Clean the cobwebs out of your jewelry box:
Are there any favorite pieces in your jewelry box in need of repair? Since the holiday rush is over, this is a great time to bring in your repairs and have all of your jewelry expertly checked and a complimentary cleaning.

Holiday 2008: Pretty Pendants

There are staple pieces that every girl should have in her jewelry box: classic diamond studs, a beautiful bracelet, and of course the simple diamond solitaire pendant. But, classic can soon translate to boring if you don't mix things up a bit. Admit it- doesn't it feel great to put on that new blouse and actually change your necklace as well?

You can never go wrong with giving a diamond pendant

The styles are limitless...

Holiday 2008: Tennis Anyone?

Diamond bracelets come in all shapes and sizes, but the most popular diamond bracelet is the "Tennis" bracelet. The phrase was coined when tennis star, Chris Everette dropped her diamond bracelet during the 1987 US Open. The match would not resume until she found it. The "Tennis" bracelet typically refers to a diamond line bracelet- diamonds side by side set in four prongs, but the phrase has come to encompass almost any diamond bracelet.

Check out just a few of our diamonds bracelets in stock. The original Tennis Bracelet is the last bracelet pictured.

Holiday 2008: The Journey Collection

With Every Step Love Grows....

DeBeers intoruduced the Journey Collection back in 2006 and it continues to be a top seller. The phrase "With Every Step, Love Grows" is symbolized in each piece with a series of graduating diamonds. Take a peek at a few of the best-sellers from our journey collection. Almost all pendants can be ordered in a larger or smaller dimension and the carat weight of the diamonds adjust accordingly.

We have also used many of the Journey mountings to create Mothers' Jewelry, using the birthstones of various family members.
