Commemorating Mom
 
June 16, 2016
  
CeCe wanted a piece of jewelry to celebrate her precious grandchildren. Most of her friends have mothers rings...she wanted something unique. Her jeweler, Janel Russell, is a gifted designer who has been in the jewelry trade for over 35 years. Janel created Mother and Child� in 1980 after her son Isaac was born so she understands the significance of a mother's piece of jewelry.
 
Janel invited CeCe to a Gemstone Roundtable at her studio. As CeCe looked at gems she discovered something about herself: she was really attracted to elongated gemstones. She fell in love with three gems: a Precious Topaz rectangular cushion, an Iolite Scissors style baguette, and an Amethyst emerald-cut.
 
The Precious Topaz and the Amethyst are the birthstones of her grandchildren, Vale and Sierra, the legacy of her life. The gems remind her of the miraculous days they were born. She chose a 2.32ct Iolite baguette for its clean lines, loving the scissors faceting technique Roger used to brighten the gem. CeCe shared, "the iolite represents ME - I love the stone as it is called the "water Sapphire" - sapphire being my birthstone and I love water."


2.32ct Tanzanian Iolite

Janel designed a yellow gold bracelet with white accents and a white gold frame around the Iolite. CeCe's bracelet elegantly commemorates her life as a mom and grandma - an heirloom to be passed down to her daughter and precious grandchildren.



She now wears her bracelet proudly on her wrist, sharing her story of family and legacy each day.
