"Blue Moons" Toggle Necklace in White Gold with 2.40ct Sapphire Drops + Diamonds
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Eytan Brandes tore apart a dressy sapphire cuff link (see final photo in array) to make this incredible, one-of-a-kind* toggle necklace.
The sapphire balls are an incredible feat of stone-setting; it's not easy to pave-set stones on a sphere! Six rows of faceted round sapphires -- slightly graduated in size so that the largest stones are set on the "equator" -- work their way down to the bottom where -- just to make the stone-setting challenge more challenging -- an oval (not a round!) sapphire is set in a tidy bezel.
Topping each sapphire ball is a neat little white gold cone. The upper ball hangs directly from the toggle ring, but the lower sphere is connected to the ring by a chain segment plus a little diamond rondelle link (part of the original cuff link).
We counted a total of 224 round sapphires plus the two ovals and came up with an estimated sapphire weight of at least 2.40 carats. The sapphires are a gorgeous range of medium blue, with a couple of lighter stones mixed in.
The diamonds are all full-cut flyspecks. We counted 32 stones with a diamond weight of no more than 0.15 carats.
All stones are guaranteed natural and earth-mined.
The cufflinks were probably made in the 1970s; they aren't stamped (maker or purity) which, along with the workmanship, suggest a custom piece.
The chain is new from our existing stock -- an Italian cable chain, 2mm wide with oval links.
The toggle bar is the oldest component in the bunch -- Eytan filched it from a pocket watch chain, and it's probably around 100 years old, with a nice wavy pattern engraved or stamped on each long side.
We like the choker (15.5") length, but we're not wedded to it. If you would prefer a longer length, just let us know and we'll give you an adjusted price (which be based on labor and additional gold weight -- no big deal).

"Shield" Modern Power Ring in White Gold with Ruby & Diamonds
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
The face of this bold, modern ring started off in life as a cufflink,* probably made in the early 1970s.
Originally set with a not-aging-very-well black star sapphire, Eytan replaced it with a nice 1.02 carat natural ruby cabochon. The diamonds are original -- clean little full cut brilliants, earth-mined and untreated, weighing approximately 0.03 carats each.
The wide split shoulders flare out a bit at the sides to form a carinated single shank that tapers to a width of 4mm at the back.
Currently a size 7, Eytan will resize at no additional charge for full-price buyers.
All metal is 14 karat white gold.
This ring weighs 12.4 grams.
* We made this cuff link's mate into a slider pendant -- reset with a nice sapphire -- which is also listed on Dibs. Copy and paste...

"Caviar Time" Pendant in Yellow Gold w Mechanical Watch Movement & Spinel Chain
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Mechanical watch movements are amazing. Every jeweler has a zillion of them, since the cases are frequently melted for their metal value. Eytan Brandes has always appreciated these tiny marvels and has made a few of them into pendants, but he likes them to be a bit stealthy -- not scream, "HEY! I'm watch guts!"
His latest pendant, in 14 karat yellow gold, is a perfect example -- with the border of raised dots -- Eytan's "caviar" pattern -- blends interestingly into the busy landscape of a mechanical watch movement, with its red jewels and steel wheels. This particular movement isn't very old -- it was probably made in the 1990s or thereabouts by Gotham Watch...

"Gosh" Freeform Pendant in 18K Gold with Diamond & Beryl Slice on Sapphire Chain
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
This one-of-a-kind pendant by Eytan Brandes features a freeform slice of gold, set with a diamond, over a freeform slice of goshenite.
Goshenite is a variety of beryl -- basically aquamarine without color. We acquired a little pile of this stuff -- the palest of pale blue and oddly cut -- and were at a loss as to what to do with it until Eytan hit on the idea of setting one of them in a bezel with an oxidized (blackened) inside pan. We love the end result. The swirly pattern of the oxidization plus the faceting plus the minute coloration of the stone combine to give this humble gem a truly unique, shimmery look -- worthy, even, of a hearty "Gosh!" (if anyone actually said "gosh" anymore...)
By contrast, the diamond, bezel-set to float in the opening of Eytan's 18 karat gold shard, involves absolutely no hanky-panky. It's an earth-mined, natural and untreated stone weighing 0.04 carats -- a small but high quality sparkler (Eytan rates it G-H color and VS2 clarity).
The hand-wrought pulled wire bale is roughly oval-shaped and oversized, since Eytan envisioned his pendant would be paired with beads (which generally require a bigger bale than a chain), but removable. We think our choker-length strand of faceted but rough sapphire...

"Marquee" Ring with Raw Ruby Cabochon Between Rows of Faceted Rubies in 18K Gold
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
This delicious ring by Eytan Brandes was actually completed back in 2019, but it was originally set with an opaque green stone. We liked the way it looked, but the stone was problematic since we weren't sure if it was green agate, jadeite or nephrite and once it was set, we couldn't test it (oops). After a lot of backy forthy, Eytan decided it was too weird to be listing a ring with an unidentified "green stone," so he popped it out* and decided it would be fun to contrast the top quality, sparkling pink rubies with their cousin from the wrong side of the tracks: a rough ruby.
This kind of ruby is completely natural and completely loaded with every flaw under the sun: silk, uneven color, spider veins, milky streaks, fissures, fractures, you name it.
We love rough rubies (and rough sapphires too). Yes, they can be hard to cut (our gemcutter does NOT love them) because you have to find enough material that isn't threatened by internal fractures, but once they're successfully cut into cabochons, they polish up beautifully and, like all rubies, they are reliably durable. Even though they're effectively opaque (because they're so chock full o'flaws), they have a lustrous depth and character that you just won't find with either naturally opaque OR transparent stones.
So, having said all that, we reintroduce the Marquee Ring...

GIA-Certified 2.29 Carat Yellow Sapphire Ring with Tiny Sapphires in 18K Gold
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
This new ring by Eytan Brandes is a design he made for one of our long-time customers in platinum with diamonds as an engagement ring. He made an extra copy in 18 karat gold because he wanted a nice setting for a yellow sapphire he's had for several years.
Prior to setting the stone, we had it certified by GIA, which confirmed the weight and dimensions, as well as the origin (Sri Lanka). Most important, the report confirms the stone hasn't been subjected to beryllium diffusion, which is the current scourge of the sapphire and ruby trade. The stone has been heated, which is customary and creates permanent improvement in the stone's color, but it has not been filled, chemically altered, or otherwise augmented in any way.
The sapphire's intense golden yellow really sparkles thanks to a nice mixed cut (brilliant cut faceting on the crown and step cut faceting on the pavilion). The tiny blue sapphires (totaling less than 0.06 carats), set in little "leaves" on the sides, present some nice unexpected contrast.
The band is slender and carinated (i.e., knife-edged), so it's actually thicker (1.8mm) than it is wide (1.6mm).
A very striking, comfortable ring, in rich 18 karat yellow gold. The total ring weight is 3.9 grams.
Currently a size 5.25, Eytan will resize at no charge for full-price buyers.

"Halfsies II" Rose Gold & Diamond Hamsa Pendant on Raw Diamond & Garnet Chain
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Eytan's latest hamsa is a redo of an earlier design. We call this design his Melee Muncher because it's the perfect platform for recycled diamonds -- stones extracted from jewelry that customers have brought in for melt value. These diamonds range in color and clarity and are generally fairly pedestrian -- in the SI range with a couple of VS2's -- but they're perfect for this pendant because, with the black background and the tight pavé, they can't help but pop. We love the idea of putting these stones to good use, and we love the way the mix of clarities and colors looks in such a tight formation.
Two of the diamonds are single cuts and at least two are transitional (high crowns and tiny tables). The rest are full cuts. They range in size from 1mm to 2.5mm; the total carat weight for all 25 diamonds of 0.65 carats.
The pendant is 14 karat rose gold with a satiny finish and a nice big top ring that will accommodate lots of different chain options, but we like our new garnet and rough diamond bead strand.
This chain continues the recycling theme, using up 6...

Freeform "Lava Pool" Ring with 1.16 Carats Yellow Spectrum Diamonds in 18K Gold
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Many of our customers bring us their old jewelry to be melted down so that we can apply the scrap gold credit to the price of their new custom pieces by Eytan Brandes. During this process, Eytan plucks out the precious stones and sorts them according to a system nobody but he understands.
This ring was fashioned by Eytan specifically to use up his pile of extracted yellow diamonds, all taken from various pre-owned pieces over a period of around 25 years. They're in various shades ranging from pale yellow to fancy yellow to golden yellow-brown. (And there's two small champagne-colored diamonds thrown in the mix, just to keep everyone on their toes.)
This is a mish-mash of round stones -- all different sizes, colors and clarities. Most are full (i.e., brilliant) cut, but a few are mixed cuts. They're pavé-set on an oxidized (black) landscape over the slightly concave front of a naturalistic and freeform 18 karat yellow gold ring. Eytan calls it his Lava Pool ring...

150 Carat Custom-Cut Golden Quartz & Diamond Pendant in White Gold
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Story time! About ten years ago, one of Eytan Brandes' customers bought this enormous quartz at a gem show and asked Eytan to make her a diamond pendant to show it off. Eytan made the pendant, set the diamonds, added a fixed chain, then, well, he dropped the quartz.
It didn't break, but it suffered an internal (not surface-reaching) fracture that is more or less visible depending on the angle of the pendant. You can see it in the photos for yourself. Eytan told the client, went back to the original gem dealer, and ordered up another enormous custom-cut quartz. Since the measurements of the new stone were different, he made an entirely new pendant for the new stone and the customer went away happy. Phew.
That left Eytan with a big flawed quartz and a big gold pendant. Fast forward to 2022: after years of languishing in the back of the safe, Eytan decided that it would be a shame to deny these two outlandish baubles a chance. He made some changes, though. First, he dipped the pendant in rhodium, turning it white. Then he removed the chain, which oriented the pendant horizontally, and he added a new bale (fashioned from a 1950s white gold wedding band!) so that the pendant now hangs vertically.
The 82 diamonds on the halo are all tiny but good quality (G-H color and VS clarity) natural, untreated earth-mined and full cut diamonds with a total weight of 0.40 carats. The four diamonds on the bale are of lower quality (probably more like J-K color and SI clarity), with an estimated total weight of about 0.04 carats.
The quartz is a 150 carat...

"Open Halfsies" Hamsa with 0.78cts Diamonds in 18K Gold on Carnelian Necklace
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
This hamsa is one of Eytan Brandes' older designs, but he has realized it in many different iterations over the years, always keeping it fresh.
In shimmery, satin-finished 18 karat yellow gold, this latest version is the first time he's tried opening up one side.
The other side is pavé-set with 25 diamonds. In keeping with tradition, he used all different size stones because this design is one of Eytan's favorite ways of using diamonds from Eytan's Big Box o' Recycled Diamonds! These are stones, mostly of average or below average clarity -- pulled from the thousands of pieces of jewelry that have come through the store over the years on their way to be melted and made by Eytan into something better.
The stones used for this pendant range in size from 0.8mm to 2.2mm for a total diamond weight of 0.78 carats. Eytan used diamonds that would be considered "slightly included," avoiding the ones that would be classified as "included." (In other words, he used SI1-2's and avoided the I's, with the exception of the stone at the very top, which is a straight I2.)
Most of the stones are full cut, but since a lot of these diamonds came from older jewelry, there are a few single cuts as well.
Meticulously set, everybody gets their job done, especially set against yellow gold, which can't help but elevate their color.
All stones are earth-mined, natural and untreated.
We love putting these stones to good use, and we love the way a bit of careful sorting can bring stones from 25 different pieces of uninspired jewelry together to act as a unified team in something new, beautiful and wearable. Go team!
The bale* is teardrop-shaped and decent-sized (8.5mm x 6.5mm), allowing for many chain options, but we like our bright red carnelian bead necklace...
