I know, I know…it seems way too early considering its 100 degrees in Scottsdale, Arizona today. But the nice part? Some of these pieces work perfectly well with a summer outfit. Looks like the statement necklace endures another season!

Been going through the archives here at Joseph Schubach Jewelers and found a few interesting gems!

We’re a little late posting this customer testimonial, but it’s a good one! Thanks Dyna!

This is by far one of the prettiest lab grown emeralds we’ve seen! This lab grown – or synthetic – emerald has the color of a fine natural Colombian emerald. We’re used to seeing lab grown emeralds with the darker, more forest green color similar to the African emeralds. This one not only has the bright, light grass green color of a fine Colombian variety but even has inclusions making it that much more interesting. See for yourself.

We’re happy to be part of Arizona Bride’s 2011 Best of edition! One of our Valina rings was gracefully worn by one of the lovely “desert” models.

Here’s the Valina ring used for the shoot:

Valina designer engagement ring with 1.60ct total weight pave' set natural diamond accents (setting only, does not include center stone). Shown with a 1ct center stone. Matching band available separately.
