Day 5 Of The 12 Days Of Christmas

by | Dec 17, 2017 | Featured, Holiday Gift Guide

On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me… five golden rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Except it wasn’t just golden rings, but rather beautiful white and black diamonds, and blue sapphires from one of our new favorite jewelry designers, Roberto Demeglio. With the holidays coming — and let’s not forget New Year’s Eve — be sure to turn heads by wearing a piece from his sparkling collections. Pure pleasure, passion for technology, deep artisanal tradition; Roberto Demeglio is the jeweler with a true balance of design flair, technical experimentation, and craft tradition. These jewels are for women who want to stand out!
