Miley Cyrus Engagement Ring Details

Posted by Unknown Rabu, 06 Juni 2012 0 komentar

Miley Cyrus got engaged, y'all. And I've got all the engagement ring details for your drooling pleasure.

I'm happy to say that her Aussie fiance (Hunger Games star, Liam Hemsworth), did himself proud by pairing up with Hollywood's uber jeweler, Neil Lane, according to People.com.


The result is a whopping 3.5-carat cushion-cut diamond ring, handcrafted in 18-karat gold with intricately carved diamond floral motifs in an art nouveau pattern with a stone dating back to the late 19th century.

“It was hand-cut around 1880 or 1890 and it’s unique and in its original form,” Lane told People. “At that time no two diamonds were alike, as they were all hand-cut, so it’s fascinating to look at because it hasn’t been re-cut to look contemporary over the years. I find that really romantic.”


I do too, Neil. And Miss Miley apparently approved as well tweeting today,

“Thank you for all the love today. I’m happy to share this news with you all. I feel like all my dreams are coming true.”


She's rich. She's famous. She's got 3.5 carats. Who needs a Jonas when you've got Gale from the Hunger Games! Time to party in the USA! Although she is only 19 to his 22. Pregnancy rumors are already flying around the blogosphere. Hmmmmmm.....

What do you guys think of her rock? Her impending nuptials? Too young? Or true love conquers all?

Diamond Jubilee Dish: Carats, Crowns and The Culinan

Posted by Unknown Minggu, 03 Juni 2012 0 komentar

Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee celebrations are in full swing with Derby dalliances, flotilla festivities and Sirs Elton and Paul waiting in the wings (pun intended) somewhere in the rain to honor Her Majesty's 60th year on the throne (click here for the full schedule of Jubilee fun).


Even though everyone really wants to see what flotilla fashion Duchess Kate will wear (or wear again) on the Thames today, a jewelry hound like myself is going in search of the crown jewels. With a name like DIAMOND Jubilee, how can I resist, right?


First? I have to feature this hip new portrait of Her Majesty by artist Chris Levine, which highlights a new diadem created by royal jewelers, Asprey, just for the Diamond Jubilee celebration. The headpiece is a re-creation of the original worn by The Queen to her coronation in 1953 and features 1,000 white, brilliant-cut diamonds, 25 pearls and a rare yellow diamond centerpiece.

Jewelry made from the Culinan Diamond
Next? Some major bling at Buckingham is going on display under the moniker: "Diamonds: A Jubilee Celebration". According to their official website, "an unprecedented number of the Queen's personal jewels will go on display," including treasures made from the largest diamond in the WORLD, folks - The Culinan Diamond.

For the uninitiated, The Culinan, was discovered in 1905 at the Culinan Diamond Mine in South Africa and weighed in at (wait for it.....) 3,000 carats! They even threw it away at first thinking it had to be a lowly crystal.

But those wily Brits got major mileage out of the rock, and the Queen now has several significant pieces made from the Culinan - including the Royal Sceptre which features the Culinan I (or Star of Africa), which as the largest colorless white cut diamond in the world weighs in at 530 carats.

How's THAT for a diamond jubilee?


And just to make us even more drunk with diamond glee, I convinced the higher-ups at Jewelry.com to give us 20% Off any diamond not already on sale through Tuesday in honor of the celebrations.

Just use code 20JUBILEE at checkout, jewelry hounds. And be sure check out our What's Hot section for our personally curated collection of royal-inspired rocks.

I'm getting more 'jubilant' by the minute....
