Our Product Story
As Saundra Messinger has transitioned from a successful singing career to fashion executive to jewelry designer, two rivers have influenced her life and artistry, the Mississippi and the Hudson. Their impact can be seen in imperfect shapes that seem washed by currents, diamonds that sparkle like sunlit wavelets and finishes as luminous as moonlight. Her creations embody a confident cool that enhances the wearer's individuality.
The diamond is the birthstone for April. Its origin derives from the Greek word "adamas," meaning unconquerable and indestructible. The Greeks believed the fire in the diamond reflected the constant flame of love.
For the last 3000 or 4000 years, diamonds have symbolized wealth, power, love, spirit and magical powers. It was believed that diamonds were fragments of stars and the teardrops of the gods.
Sterling silver is a white, highly reflective precious metal composed of 925 parts of pure silver and 75 parts alloy, usually copper. Copper provides the silver with sufficient hardness and wearing qualities, as pure silver is sometimes considered too soft to be used or worn everyday. Sterling silver is used in a wide variety of jewelry for a beautiful polished look.
