DOLCE TRUNK SHOW PICS: BEAUTIFUL JEWELS & CRYSTAL WHITE SNOW

This is to give you an idea of how much it snowed while we were there... Jilienne is 5'8", and her boots add 3"!

A close-up of the sign on the yellow house above, too funny!

Here are some photos from our trunk show at Dolce Jewels in Telluride, CO. It was so beautiful there, the snow was just breathtaking! It was fun hanging with the gang from Dolce and meeting some cool clients! They were from all over the globe. I sold some of my favorite one-of-a-kinds, and I have to remember not to be so attached to each piece that I make! I know they are special to each person that collects them.

Cheers & Crushes,
Pamela

Lark Book's latest publication, entitled "500 Gemstone Jewels" includes 3 Pamela Froman creations! We just received our copy today, and the book is gorgeous. If you love jewelry, especially jewelry featuring an array of earth's treasures (from unique quartz to sparkling diamonds, and everything in between,) then this book belongs on your coffee table! It's now available for purchase on Lark Book's website.

From the Back Cover:
500 Gemstone Jewels - The Remarkable Variety of Contemporary Gemstone Jewelry
The vitality of today's top designers who work with gems and stones is evident in the stunning jewelry featured in this juried collection. Some of the pieces have been designed with highly technical settings and rare lapidary specimens while others, no less amazing, have employed basic techniques to achieve innovative, thought-provoking results. "Jewelry can be stimulating as well as beautiful, and this volume is filled with pieces hat are bound to raise aesthetic questions," says curator Cindy Edelstein. "But take my advice: forget about the artistic issues, and allow yourself to be swept away, as I was, by the beauty of the gemstones."

2009 Dallas Rocks Charity Auction for D.E.F.

One-of-a-kind "Roman Nymph" Necklace

I was excited to participate in this year's Dallas Rocks / Diamond Empowerment Fund Charity Auction, which raises money to support higher education in South Africa! I decided to donate my "Roman Nymph" pendant, a one-of-a-kind piece made of 18k yellow "crushed" gold with Morganite, Tourmaline, Diamonds, and a lustrous Pink Freshwater Pearl. The winning bid also received one of my signature leather boxes and, of course, a chain to wear the pendant on.

If you've been reading my blogs, then you know I am currently working on a project for the Diamond Empowerment Fund; a stylish unisex Dog Tag that will help raise more money for this worthy cause. This project is still in the works, but I'll let you all know when the Dog Tag is available for purchase. I think I might even make a one-of-a-kind "blingy" version of the Dog Tag for next year's Dallas Rocks event!

Cheers & Crushes,
Pamela

More about the Diamond Empowerment Fund:
The Diamond Empowerment Fund (D.E.F.) is a non-profit international organization founded by Russell Simmons, along with other individuals in the diamond and jewelry industries and others who are committed to the empowerment of Africa. D.E.F.'s mission is to raise money to support education initiatives that develop and empower economically disadvantaged people in African nations where diamonds are a natural resource. CIDA City Campus in Johannesburg is D.E.F.'s first named beneficiary and a model for higher education in South Africa

CIDA (Community and Individual Development Association) was established to provide higher education designed to encourage human, economic and social development for the large population of South African youth living in disadvantaged communities. In 2000, CIDA City Campus was launched in Johannesburg, South Africa as Africa's first virtually free college, to provide opportunity for the huge numbers of students who had no access to furthering their education. The school combined self-development initiatives with an academic focus on a business degree program, along with skill-building programs for students not yet prepared for higher education. Student service to the school and the student's own community was also a fundamental principal.
