Anatomy of a Stack: It's hard to go wrong with the Ancienne

Inspired by Refinery 29's roundup of "I do!" worthy engagement rings, I selected this little stack to compliment the Ancienne Diamond Ring, $2,840.  It's hard to go wrong with this beauty, so I jazzed it up with two other favorites, the 18k yellow gold Clara Band by Ila & I, $1,590 and Katie Diamond's 18k yellow gold Carina Ruby Band with Diamonds, $2,254.  Colorful and festive, perfect for a holiday "I do!"

Thanks Refinery29!

It is no secret that this Elisa Solomon Ancienne Diamond Ring, $2,840, is no joke and would make prrrrety much any lady say "I DO" but we were extra excited to see that Refinery29 thinks so, too!

Designer Q&A: Elisa Solomon

What is your favorite part of making jewelry? Selecting the stones.

I love: My job.
I loathe: People who don't say thank you.
My idea of happiness: Spending time with my family, my German Shepherd, and my wonderful boyfriend!
Favorite way to spend a Sunday: Brunch and ice cream!
What are you listening to?  My new Project RED Ipod nano mix.

How did you begin making jewelry? I studied metal-smithing at the University of Michigan.

What first attracted you to jewelry making? I've always been creative, artistic, and had a passion for jewelry.

If you had to describe your aesthetic in three words what would it be? Feminine, bohemian, sparkly
What is your favorite piece of jewelry to wear and why? My 18 karat yellow gold rose cut diamond band rings because I love how they blend into my skin but still sparkle in the most beautiful way.

We absolutely love the way you stack up your rings on your fingers, how do you decide which rings make the cut? I pretty much grab my favorites and arrange them by deciding which stone colors and shapes complement each other!  I like a bit of an eclectic mix...facetted stone rings stacked with rose cut rings, larger shapes with daintier bands.

Who’s closet would you most like to raid? Kate Hudson
Who’s jewelry box would you most like to raid? I'm happy with my own!  :)
Who, living or dead would you most like to have tea with, and why? John Lennon, a fellow Upper West sider, because he seemed like such a peaceful, warm, and intelligent man.

What Catbird piece are you currently coveting? I love the embroidered cards with adorable foxes!

My funny Valentine


Our favorite little Liberace, she of the bejeweled fingers, Miss Elisa Solomon has restocked our shelves with a delicious array of St. Valentine worthy offerings. I'm particularly taken with her Love ring, which she's done up on 18k gold, smacked with diamonds, and kissed with a rose cut ruby. This ring has a sense of humor; I like a jewel that is beautiful and makes me laugh.

A whole new slew of jewels online (and more coming soon!), including this diminutive heart ring by Elisa Solomon ($280). It's 18k, and studded with opals, pearls, and rose-cut diamonds.  Yum.

Molten Love

Like a little Liberace, Elisa Solomon floats into the store, full of joy, with fingers full of the most delicious jewels.  Elisa's line is a pinch Native American, mixed with equal parts art teacher at the Kibbutz and holidays on the Mayan Coast.  You can practically see Elisa's fingerprint in everything she makes, and you'd better believe we're putting a ton of her new pieces online, any day now.
