Fashion pearl rings: from classic Chanel pearls to modern Mawi industrial fashion jewelry elegance; vintage rings with seed pearls; cheap bridal jewelry; fashionable chocolate pearls— these are just a few of many items featured at Jewelry & Accessories!
Fashion Jewelry Contradictions – Trends for 2010
Fashion jewelry from New York and London Fashion Week runways has been all about geometric architectural sexy, mixed media – gold, silver, titanium; chunky gemstone, rhinestone and delicate pearl beads, pave cubic zirconia cuff bracelets, contemporary retro, art deco 30’s, vintage 80’s classics; glitzy sparkle, dangle, disc and hoop earrings; severe color: turquoise, teal, hot pink and vibrant yellow; smoky quartz, rich chocolate, lavender, purple; delicate floral chiffon and teeny dainty belts; peacock and abalone; ivory lace and white pearls; giant cocktail rings in stark black and white; industrial, sophisticated, feminine. Sound like contradictions? Welcome to beautiful clashes in fashion jewelry trends for 2010!
Mawi Industrial Fashion Pearl Rings
You may already know all about the latest industrial pearl jewelry by Mawi, but just in case you blinked during fashion week, here’s a view of the Claw Set Pearl Ring and a few other choice pieces by eccentric designer Mawi. The “claw” is high-end fashion costume jewelry that’s not exactly cheap, yet for those “in the know”, it needn’t be ‘real’ to be really chic!
The Claw pearl ring is gold plated with ivory faux pearls and costs £216.00 or €250.56, available directly from the Mawi online jewelry shop. The second fashion jewellery piece from Mawi that merits more than a mention is it’s claw cousin but in luscious black. It’s the same price except it’s set in a wide silver band and has luminous black faux pearls instead of the ivory ones above.
Pearl costume jewelry for 2010 would not be complete if it were not for cabochon pearl rings, also by Mawi, which come in white pearl and gold plating, or black pearl and sterling silver. Either costs £203.00 or €235.48. There’s no faux pas in either of these faux pearl cocktail rings!
HSN Celebrity Trends and Designer Fashion Pearl Rings
Where the runways end, the designer jewelry price tags begin, and all too often they begin far beyond our budgets. However, HSN Jewelry makes runway designer style affordable in fashion rings from eclectic cocktail glam to dainty bridal classics, like:
George Barse Smoky Quartz Pearl Cocktail ring
Famous Studio Barse has created a pearl cocktail ring for under $130, with a pear-shaped smoky quartz surrounded by a sea of 3mm cultured freshwater pearls, in a cluster pearl ring design in 925 sterling silver. Artist and jewelry designer George Barse has captured the essential contradictions of cosmopolitan architectural with sophisticated feminine. The gemstones and pearls are genuine, although in fashion jewelry, natural stones and pearls are usually treated to bring out luster or richer tones.
Faux Chocolate Pearl Ring Masterpiece
Chocolate pearl ring designs look on silently as a burgundy color dyed freshwater pearl ring struts its stuff on center stage. With six 5mm brown cultured pearls around another large 9mm one, this sterling silver ring has nothing to be ashamed of.
Its flower petals are delicate hearts, its setting is high polished silver, and it sells through HSN for just under $35!
Peacock, Turquoise and Lavender Pearls
Peacock and jade in an iridescent lavender and turquoise pearl ring attracts attention with a 15mm bezel-set jade cabochon and peacock color freshwater pearls set in a rhodium plated silver band. Yes the 3 or 4mm pearls are real, although they’ve been dyed from their original black to radiate turquoise and lavender tones. This is one Fashion ring that won’t get lost in the crowd! How much does it cost to be a peacock? About $70!
White Freshwater Pearl Charm Ring
Noa Zuman fashion jewelry – beautiful contrasts of architectural form and feminine pearl, like the piece called Shazira. With a touch of Eastern exotic, and a whole lot of modern texture, this cultured freshwater pearl charm ring, with an 8mm pearl, set in a unique sterling silver band, coated with a thick layer of 14K yellow gold, will not disappoint. This piece, polished to a sheen, comes in small ring size 5, as well as all sizes up to 10. It’s made in Israel and retails through HSN for just under $40.
Pearl Stretch Ring
How about something simple? A pearl stretch ring, perhaps? For just $15 there’s a piece from Designs by Veronica and it features 3 rows of 6mm multicolored cultured button pearls in a stretch band ring accented by sterling silver spacers. The pearl colors range from gray to peacock and purple and slip son easily with the elasticized thread used to connect the gems and will fit any finger from size 7 to 10. This is a good Christmas present for a young lady (yes rings for young girls are still a hit), but you’d better hurry and order if you want it shipped on time.
A Tween Pearl Promise Ring
This design is delicate and graceful for any young lady – teen or tween, as a promise ring or a gift from any loved one. It’s just $79 and has a 4mm pearl and two round-cut diamonds set in a slender 14k gold band. It comes in small ring size 3 to 5 so it’s ideal if you’re looking for rings for young girls in classic styles. Notice that this is a genuine freshwater pearl ring with diamonds and is crafted with scrollwork carvings around both sides of the slender band.
Fashion Pearl Bridal Jewelry
On a limited budget, engagement rings and wedding bands may be fashion jewelry too, and they needn’t look cheap to be affordable. In the least expensive designs there’s one piece for under$60 retailing through HSN. It features a round Chinese freshwater pearl in an eternity ring band. It’s simply dripping with sparkle from the pave round CZ gems that accent the 10mm cultured pearl set in sterling silver. Yes it’s a silver eternity ring and pearl ring all in one and could be both an engagement and wedding band. It’s from Designs by Veronica and comes in its very own jewelry box. You may order it in ring sizes 5 through 11.
Button Cluster Pearl Ring
With bridal jewelry in mind, there’s another item, unusual for an engagement ring, but may be just the piece if you’re not wanting a classic design. This is a genuine cultured button pearl ring with six 5mm pearls separated by .08 carats of white topaz gems in a polished sterling silver, triple-split tapered shank. When it comes to fashion pearl ring creations, this piece is hardly costume jewelry since it’s crafted with genuine gems and pearls, but the price is very fashionable at just under $40.
Sterling Silver Caviar Pearl Ring
We can’t leave HSN without showing you a pearl encrusted cocktail bauble called the Caviar Cultured Pearl Ring, which is indeed a lustrous caviar-like display with about thirty-five 2.5 or 3mm white pearls arranged across an oval dome with a milgrain border in antiqued silver above a high polished sterling band. Perfectly round seed pearls are often only seen in vintage or very expensive antique jewelry, so this is really a find, and it only costs $39 if ordered through HSN. It comes in small ring size 5 as well as 10 and 11. This piece is a high luster seed pearl ring, and customers who have bought it say it’s very comfortable despite it being large, and it’s one of the “Customer Picks” that’s been featured on HSN TV. By the way, if you’re worried about it being too big for your petite hands, I should tell you that I’ve seen this ring on delicate, very slender, fingers and it didn’t look heavy at all. In part this is due to the way the ring fits so well. It’s true to size so you don’t have to order a size up or down like you may have to with many fashion rings that are not so well sized.
Classic Chanel Costume Jewelry
This may not be a new “trendy” piece, but Coco Chanel is always in style! This particular Chanel fashion pearl ring has a classic feel with a wide gold band for a bit of a contemporary edge. It’s high-end fashion jewelry, so naturally it’s priced accordingly at about $500, but….it’s an authentic Chanel ring with the famous Swarovski crystal heart that rests on top of the pearl, and yes it has the logo carved into the gold-tone band, and a CC dangling charm. It’s made in France, sold online through official Chanel retailers.

The best way to know Ross Simons is to see for yourself, so here are some of their pieces in living color:
Mother of Pearl Ring under 100 dollars
For a flower design, this gray mother of pearl ring is not only delicate and unusual but very affordable at just $70. The petals are crafted from iridescent pearl and the center is a silvery round 10mm cultured pearl set in a sterling silver band. This is a very feminine cocktail ring easily paired with silver pearl stud earrings and a simple pearl bracelet.
Pearl Flower Ring
Continuing with the floral ring design theme, which is very popular this year, Ross Simons has an exclusive 11mm cultured pearl ring with the pearl set in 18k gold and the band being a high polished silver. Floral pieces can often be fussy or cluttered, but this piece is crisp and clean being mostly polished metal with just the one single pearl. It’s only $70!
Versatile Lavender Pearl Ring
As mentioned earlier, lavender and purple jewelry – and all things retro/vintage and art deco – are trendy this year, and so…we present a very affordable costume jewelry option that has a little of all these trends crafted into a fashion pearl ring with a large, oval lavender jade center, encircled by four 5mm round cultured pearls and 4 oval lapis gems set into a rich 14kt yellow gold mounting. This is one purple ring that is versatile and can be matched with light chiffon cocktail dresses as easily as it may accent dark colored formal suits. Pair it with white pearl stud earrings for daywear with dresses, or dangle drop pearl earrings or even chandelier styles for evening, and add a silver cuff bracelet for yet another look. This ring’s suggested price is over $500, but Ross Simons offers it for only $140.
Ross Simons Fashion Cluster Pearl Ring Designs
There are two good bargains on cluster pearl rings that have mother of pearl centers. One has a white center and the other is iridescent peacock color. They’re both set in sterling silver, and the pearls and mother-of-pearl is all genuine, which makes the prices seem too good to be true. Either pieces are just $39. This includes forty-four 3mm freshwater pearls clustered around a 15mm round luminous mother of pearl, accented by a sterling silver circle. The ring is wide at the shank, where the seed peals are embedded, but tapers down to a comfortabe rounded band. They are available in ring size 6 and 10.
Cheap Costume Jewelry Bargains – Pink Mother of Pearl Ring
Pink is trendy and classic all in one. And Ross Simon’s domed, pink pearl ring is a bargain at just $52. Here’s why: It has four large, curved pieces of mother of pearl wrapped around the top of a sterling silver ring with .65 ct. imitation diamond CZ (cubic zirconia). It’s large enough to get noticed as an evening cocktail ring, but feminine and tasteful enough for daywear.
Antique Pearl Ring Style in Sterling Silver
With antique filigree scrollwork and a crown-like shank, this 13.5mm freshwater pearl makes for a sterling silver ring delight. It sits high, with the lustrous white pearl as the focal point of a glamorous cocktail ring with sculpted scrolls, hearts and beads in a filigree design. This is one of those timeless pieces that can be worn to formal black-tie events, and we suggest adding an antique pearl bracelet and earrings to complete the ensemble. The ring is priced at only $60 and the matching earrings and bracelets start at about $45 and go up to around $70.
