Carl Blackburn Turns Right Hand Rings into Regal Treasures

Beverly Hills, CA, March 01, 2006 --(PR.com)-- People say that every woman needs at least one fabulous piece of jewelry. One that will capture the attention of everyone in the room. One that will make an ultimate fashion statement. Today, the right hand ring is laying claim to that prized position in a woman’s jewelry box.

One of the hottest trends in diamond jewelry, the right hand ring has become the jewelry icon of the independent, self sufficient, woman. With the help of a strong marketing drive from DeBeer’s (whose ads read: Your left hand says “we”… Your right hand says “me” and Your left hand is your heart… Your right hand is your voice), these flirty and distinctive diamond rings have been appearing on the fingers of such fashion-setting celebrities as Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts, Halle Berry, and Sharon Stone.

Worn on the fourth finger and occasionally the pinky, right hand rings discard the traditional solitaire motif, in favor of designs reminiscent of cocktail rings. Clusters of smaller diamonds often run in north/south designs that are surrounded by lots of open space. Carl Blackburn has added a regal touch to the theme in his new 2006 collections. Featuring open work designs inspired by European crown jewels, the new right hand rings blend the timeless elegance of turn-of-the-century royal courts with eternity spun diamonds and detailed hand-milgraining to create a truly stunning look.

Says Blackburn, “Right hand rings are most often associated single, successful women. But in reality they are worn by beautiful, confident women of all types. Our rings were designed as a reminder that every woman, regardless of the role she plays at any one moment, is a treasure worth honoring.”
