Life on Mars – The Modern Engagement Rings of Mars

By on October 23, 2017

No matter whether discussing Roman god, the little red planet, Michael Jordan’s shoe-shilling partner, or whatever else, Mars has been captivating people’s imaginations for centuries.  More recently, since 1987 to be exact, the fine jewelry artisans at Mars Fine Jewelry have made it their mission to create exquisite bridal jewelry pieces that are every bit out-of-this-world as the brand’s namesake would suggest.

Known for creating pieces that are deceptively simple, intricately designed, as well as covered with exquisite embellishments, engravings, and brilliant diamonds, the engagement rings of Mars quickly became highly in-demand by fashion-forward brides-to-be. Originally only available through custom orders, Mars was able to expand and grow, and are now available in many leading fine jewelry retailers, including our pals over at Medawar Jewelers.

And because there’s nothing we at Premiere Jewelry Designs love more than introducing our readers to new designers, here is a quick introduction to the wonderful engagement ring collections of Mars available today at an authorized retailer near you.

Five Unique Wedding Bands for the Unique Couple

By on March 13, 2017
Unique Wedding Bans at Golden Tree Jewellers located in Langley, British Columbia

 

To some, weddings can seem like the apex of old-world tradition. An artifact of days gone past when the cotton was high, the fish were jumping, and the living was easy. And while this conception of the wedding is still the case in some situations, we’re seeing more and more couples that have rejected the “classic” marital traditions in favor of contemporary, fun, and most of all, unforgettably unique ceremonies and weddings.

For example, at PJD we’ve seen weddings hosted everywhere from churches to libraries to bars to barns to treehouses, and serving everything from gourmet donuts to curry stations and everything in-between.

So it should come as no surprise that we have seen some pretty memorable and truly unique wedding bands. Past are the days where a wedding band had to be plain and unadorned. Instead, today men’s and women’s wedding bands are every bit as glamourous, gleaming, and sophisticated as any diamond engagement ring.

That’s why we’ve put together this short guide to some of our favorite bold, distinct, and one-of-a-kind wedding bands available right now.

A Guide To Luxury Timepiece Complications

By on
Swiss Quality Timepieces available at Dejaun Jewelers in Woodland Hills and Thousand Oaks, California.

Back in November we talked in our Guide to Luxury Watch Buying about the various things to take in consideration while you’re on the search for a Swiss-quality, high fashion, luxury grade timepiece. While that article is good and all (one of our reader’s favorites in fact), we only spend a little time discussing the relationship that watch complications have on the price, quality, and versatility of your timepiece.

So, to help our readers understand a little bit more about the complicated (sorry) world of watch complication, here is a quick guide to some of the most popular ones that we see here at PJD.

What is a Complication?

Since the beginning the world of Swiss haute horology has always been all about competition. Every watchmaker has always seen what their competitor was doing and has tried to outdo and out-innovate their neighbor. In addition to creating more extravagant looking pieces than their competitor, complications were a good way to make a watch more useful and interesting to the watch-buying public.
