Celestial-themed jewelry, layered necklaces or chains, huggie hoop earrings and matching wedding bands are popular this year. However, pearls never go out of style and the chic, modern ones are fabulous, affirms Adam McGee, owner of McGee & Company Fine Jewelers in Greenwood.
As a full-service jewelry team who's been tracking trends for nearly 40 years, Adam says their bespoke craftsmanship enables them to transform client dreams into timeless pieces of art. "Our expert artisans bring clients' unique visions to life through meticulous attention to details."
"Yellow gold is a big winner, now along with gold and silver duotone pieces," he explains. "Paper clip jewelry and chunky pieces are still in vogue."
When recently at one of the industry's most renowned jewelry trade events in the world, JCK Las Vegas, Adam says bigger, bolder disc-based jewelry was prevalent, even larger medallions for women.
"Jewelry is one of the few things you can keep as a constant, no matter where you live or what you're doing in life. A wonderful part of being in the jewelry business is getting to see people pass down trinkets through the generations, while also getting to redesign that jewelry to match their preferences. That way, you get to carry loved ones with you always," Adam explains.
For engagement jewelry, Adam shares that with a return to more simple, solitaire diamond rings, many couples are choosing decorative bands to express different elements of their personalities, and often stacking them, up to two or five at a time. "Then, they match the ring with a classic solitaire necklace," he adds.
For larger center stones, Adam reminds that they offer lab-grown diamonds as well.
He says those who get permanent jewelry from them now are coming back to add diamonds to the links.
Founded in 1988 by Adam's father, Bob McGee, the store's team provides custom jewelry design or redesign, repair, restoration, watch maintenance and appraisals. "Our showroom features an extensive collection of fine jewelry for all-occasion gifts, and if clients don’t see what they're looking for, our custom jewelry designers will make it," Adam asserts.
