December is just around the corner, and here at Studio Vincent we want to help you get a jump on your holiday shopping. Know anyone with a December birthday? We can help!
Perfect dark or fair complexions, December's blue topaz birthstone is beautiful on everyone. Topaz is part of the silicate family of minerals, and the blue color is a product of the pure topaz being exposed to heat, whether it's natural heat or a lab process. Either way, the cooling color of this gorgeous gemstone has been associated with all sorts of healing properties, including: calming down those with hot tempers and helping those with asthma, weak vision and insomnia. We won't claim to have seen the blue topaz work it's magic just yet, but it certainly has the power to brighten your day and your wardrobe!
Austrian designer Humphrey has a gorgeous collection of blue topaz jewelry and we are proud to have it right here at Studio Vincent. Come on down and choose from classic pendants, contemporary rings and architectural earrings. We guarantee that it will put a smile on your loved one's face.

Happy Birthday November Babies!
We're half-way through November already...can you believe it?!
Here at Studio Vincent we are looking forward to our upcoming gem show, the holiday season and, of course, the New Year!
Lest we get ahead of ourselves, let's stop and take a moment to learn a little bit about November's birthstone: the lovely citrine.
Citrine is a deliciously juicy gem, and a fairly rare specimen of the quartz family. It can occur in nature in a wide spectrum that ranges from pale yellow to rich orange.
Citrine has a hardness of 7, according to the Moh's scale, which means it's great for necklaces and earrings, and strong enough to wear occasionally in fashion rings.
We recently got in a shipment of citrine jewelry from our Austrian designer, Humphrey, so if you have a November baby on your holiday list, stop by before it's all swooped up!

Studio Vincent's holiday party is coming and YOU'RE invited!
Opals and topaz and beryl, oh my!
That's right loyal Studio Vincent fans, it's time for the SV holiday event! This year we're switching things up a little and having the party at the gallery, which means you can try on ALL of our fabulous jewels while you rub elbows with fellow SV lovers.
Join us on Thursday, November 19th from 5:00-8:00 pm and enjoy appetizers and drinks while learning about all of the beautiful loose gems we have for sale. On Saturday, November 21st you can meet with our very own Stephen Vincent and our much beloved opal vendor, Dennis Dahl. Dennis will have his entire, breath-taking collection of opals with him, and even if you're not in shopping mode, you must stop by to see what he has. If you are in shopping mode, this is the perfect opportunity to hand-pick an opal or other loose gem and have Stephen work with you to design the perfect jewelry for the upcoming holiday season.
In addition to all of above-mentioned fun, as an added bonus we are offering 15% off all loose gems and in-stock jewelry pieces. Seriously, this is not the weekend to stay home. Put on your fancy hat and coat and make your way over to Studio Vincent November 19-21st for the gala of the season.
