    simmons_pennypendantFinding a penny is good luck, right? Well, how would you like to wear your good luck all day long?

    Simmons Jewelry can make that happen. Working around that charming old adage, “Find a penny, pick it up, and all day long, you’ll have good luck” (mind, I realize that colloquially, this chant likely changes from place to place — but I grew up with that version!), there are now Penny Pendants.

    Sort of like a more fashionable take on the old penny loafers, these pendants have a brand new, brightly shining penny set right into a lovely sterling silver pendant — and there is a whole complete line of them!

    Who ever thought copper and silver could look so great together?

  • Fabio Cammarata Jewelry Takes on New “Form”

    people-name-pendant-webIt has been done in many ways. What has? Jewelry that takes on the human for, whether in the shape of individual limbs or appendages, or in the shape of the human body itself. However, Fabio Cammarata’s take on this is truly innovative, truly unique.

    There is something beseeching and poignant about the way these carved bodies cling to one another to create designs.

    For the most part, it seems, this collection — called “Stories” — is done up in 18k gold, occasionally with gemstones acting as accents.

    The carved gold silhouettes definitely do tell a story. This is jewelry that actually means something, and that is truly rare these days. When you find pieces like these, you have to appreciate them — and hold onto them if you have one.
