HOW TO PREVENT CHAINS FROM TANGLING


You are about to put on the pendant that matches your outfit perfectly and ready to leave the house for work or even a special occasion and you realize that there is a dreaded knot on the chain. That's not fun!  
Now let us show you a super simple trick that it prevents your chains from tangling. 



All you need is a little ziploc bag. you can order them online, usually 1 dolar for 50 of them. 

Now the way you store your chain is you put it in the plastig bag and leave the clasp part out them zip the bag so that it does not fall back in the bag. 



and that's it! You're all set. Believe it or not, your chain will never get tangled, ever again! 
If you are afraid of the part of the chain that is outside of the bag getting tarnished, put the little bag inside a bigger bag. 

This is what we recommend to all our customers at OKG JEWELRY.

2015 Fall Fashion Week Jewelry Trends

Another Fashion Week took Ny by the storm and passed before we knew it and now it is Paris' turn in mesmerizing fashion lovers. Here are some photos from designer runways and street style, showing hot trends in jewelry. 

Medallion Pendants 

The simplest piece of jewelry with the most impact is a hands down a medallion pendant, such as the ones with simple monograms. Whether it is the first initial of your or a beloved's name engraved on it, these pendants are very sentimental as well as fashionable. They are subtle enough to match with any outfit and yet conversation pieces due to the personalized concept. 

Here are some monogram medallion pendants by OKG Jewelry. 



They are available in solid white, yellow and rose gold as well as in sterling silver with any color gold overlay. 

We have to tell you that the yellow gold is the most popular one out of all. 


Stackables

Stackable concept is in fashion for quite sometime, although the types of stackables change every season. Here are some trendy ideas for this season:

Stackable Necklaces

One way to do this is to stack small charm pendants on different length chains. Make sure that each chain is about 2 inches longer than the next on such as 16"-18"-20". At OKG Jewelry we make most of our pendants chains and chain necklaces adjustable to different lengths by adding a "loop chain" on the back. 


Here is another beautiful pair of long station necklaces with emeralds, black onyx and diamonds from OKG Jewelry stacked together. 



Stackable Rings 

Valentino showcased these ring stacks at the Fashion Week runway. 


Stackable rings are hot sellers at our Little Neck, NY showroom. Some customers like to stack them like "midi rings", 



and some like the classic celebration style and stack them on top of each other, 2 to 5 at a time. 


We have an enormous collection of stackable rings at OKG Jewelry. 


Here are some with vivid gemstones in different color gold and platinum. 






Belt Choker

This Versace choker belt necklace was one of the most spectacular accessories of the Fashion Week 2015. 

We carry the same notion in a bracelet version, containing ruby and diamonds set in antiqued silver. 


Drop Earrings 

Beautiful drop earrings from Jason Wu runway.

Budget Friendly Alternative Engagement Rings

Who says you have to get a solitaire diamond for an engagement ring. Whether you are not crazy about the cookie cutter diamond engagement rings or you want to get a glamorous look in a small budget, these non-traditional and alternative engagement ring styles are just for you! 


The 3-Stone Ring That is Not a 3-Stone Ring  


This ring looks like a traditional "past-present&future" engagement ring however it is actually made out of 3 sections of multiple diamonds set as one diamond in the middle and a micro prong set halo surrounding it. 

Center portion is slightly larger than the 2 side sections.  





Here is another version of the same concept with a double halo, surrounding the center diamond in each section. 




It looks very substantial and beautiful. 





Vintage style 3-Stone Ring

This ring is a very elegant piece with bezel and pave set diamonds, milgrain around the edges and hand carved shank which creates an "antique" finish. 





For Bling Lovers...


Here is a super sparkly style with 3 half-bezel set diamonds and micro prong set round brilliant halo with a split shank. 




Something Completely Unique... 

How about a 3 stone solitaire, placed in the center of a "cigar" band with a lattice design. 



Radiant Halo

If you like halo engagement rings but don't want to spend a fortune on a solitaire diamond for the center, a neutral colored gemstone such as green amethyst is the perfect choice for you. This particular diamond ring has a radiant shape diamond halo and a light multifaceted green amethyst. 



Larger Than Life Halo

This ring is a gigantic version of the classic gemstone-diamond halos. 

It looks absolutely amazing on finger. 



Underwater Ring

An amazing creation from Gary Azatyan that is hand crafted in 18kt white and yellow gold, centered by a natural white quartz and a slice of turquoise underneath, which creates the "underwater effect". The ring is encrusted with exquisite quality pave set round brilliant cut diamonds all around in 1.00ct total weight.  


The side view is museum worthy! 




An Ancient Tale  

How about a style from Roman Empire times? This ring contains white and yellow diamonds, clustered in the center of a twisted rope halo. There is a royal charm about it... 




Stackables


There is nothing traditionally bridal about stackable rings but hey, isn't that the purpose? These tri-color diamond stackables would last a lifetime!



Classic with a Twist

 How about a tanzanite or Ceylon blue sapphire as a center stone, instead of a diamond? 

Add a pop of royal blue to your bridal ring with a beautiful gemstone that goes with anything you wear and still stands out as a unique piece. 





Byzantine Influence

We love love the eccentricity of this ring! It is hand-made with a cabochon cut sapphire and 6 bezel set round brilliant cut diamonds. 



If you want to jazz it up even more, you can go with a boldly designed diamond "bubble" ring as a wedding band. 



If the above option is too crazy, a simpler version of the wedding band is also available. 




Some Like it Hot

How about a hot pink sapphire and diamond engagement ring? Actually pink sapphire engagement rings are quite popular between edgy brides. They are very elegant yet stylish and remarkable. 


Here it is paired with a sapphire diamond alternating wedding band. 




Here is another spectacular pink sapphire diamond engagement ring designed by OKG Jewelry. 



Straight Outta Buckingham 

This ring reminds us Lady Diana's (Now Princess Kate's) world wide known engagement ring, yet it is different than anything out there since it was designed by OKG Jewelry's exlusive designer Gary Azatyan. The matching earrings are phenomenal as well. 

Golden Dream 

Substantial Citrine and diamond ring, hand-crafted in 14kt two tone gold, centered by a 5.43ct tw cushion shape, checkerboard cut, multifaceted natural Citrine, surrounded by 28ct round brilliant cut .12ct tw pave set diamonds, created in a beautiful vintage cocktail ring style.
