Midtown Jewelers

At Midtown Jewelers, we meet with a lot of couples. It’s always our top priority to help them find the perfect engagement ring to symbolize their undying love and commitment to their partner. Over the years we’ve noticed the development of certain trends. The following are our five engagement ring trends we expect to see in 2017.

Rose Gold

Rose gold is one of several variations of gold engagement rings. Since pure gold is far too soft for jewelry, metal alloys are mixed with the gold to make it stronger. The result is stunning colored gold. Rose gold is made from a combination of pure gold and copper. Generally, the more copper in the mix, the redder the ring will be. Rose gold engagement rings have a vintage or antique feel and are stronger and more durable than yellow or white gold rings.

Colorful Gems

Adding colorful gems is one of the most popular ways to ensure your engagement ring stands out from the crowd. Colorful stones not only look fantastic, they can also be used to add extra meaning to an already sentimental piece. Consider personalizing your engagement ring with a birthstone or favorite color.

Vintage-Inspired Designs

Vintage style engagement rings are truly unique. They are a a fantastic choice if you wish to find a ring as original and one of a kind as your style and love. Vintage inspired engagement rings possess an allure that never goes out of style.

Mixed Metal

When you choose a mixed metal engagement ring, the symbol of your love and commitment will always match your other jewelry. Multi-colored pieces are highly sought after for their unique style and versatility. Mixed metal jewelry must be carefully crafted so that the metals exist in perfect harmony with one another, much like a couple embarking on marriage.

Stacking Bands

Stacking engagement rings have been gaining in popularity for many years now. Rings are stacked on top of each other to create a versatile and unique look. Stacking rings is a fun way to showcase your individual style.

Midtown Jewelers offers truly unique jewelry, brought to us from all over the globe. Our brands are carefully selected to ensure the finest quality, craftsmanship, elegance and style. Come by and see why we are your best choice for quality engagement rings in Reston, VA.

Despite the use of cellphones and other gadgets, watches are still our trusted time-keepers. You want to do your best to keep your watch from breaking, but you also need to know what to do if it does break.

Only a trusted watch repair service should handle your watch.

Midtown Jewelers, your Reston jeweler, offers custom full-service watch repair. Minor repairs such as watch batteries, watch bands and link adjustments are performed on-site by our own Rolex Certified Master Watchmaker, Mr. Singh. Mr. Singh has over 40 years of experience and works with most American, Japanese and Swiss brand watches. Not sure what’s wrong? Bring your watch in for a free estimate.

Give your watch the respect it deserves

A watch is a very delicate thing. You have to be extremely careful with it; you really shouldn’t use it for everything. Certain activities, like playing sports and physical labor, can be a recipe for disaster as far as your watch is concerned. Every single item inside of a watch is a moving part. In fact, your watch can have up to 500 moving parts, all working together. If you hit your watch or aren’t careful, something is bound to break.

Beyond wiping it down, it’s never a good idea to try to service your watch yourself. It doesn’t take much to damage a watch. Even prying off the back to change the battery can have dire consequences. Only a qualified watch repair service center has the proper tools and equipment to handle a variety of different watch repairs. Also, a watch repair center is a very clean environment to ensure that dust isn’t able to settle inside of your watch. When people attempt to repair their watch at home they don’t realize that even a small amount of dust can cause a lot more damage.

Midtown Jewelers is your one stop shop for watch repairs and restoration in Reston, Virginia. Please contact us for more information.

Mother’s Day is a perfect time to show an important woman in your life how much you care for her. So whether you’re shopping for a wife, grandmother, friend or another amazing Mom, we have something they’ll love.

You’ve known since the day you met that she was the one, and now is the time to act. You spoke to her dad last week, and he was thrilled: With his blessing, you’ll soon get down on bended knee to ask that all-important question.

“But,” he said. “My little girl will accept only the best. Her mother’s engagement ring was platinum, and so must hers be.” Platinum. I mean, of course you’ll take your soon-to-be father-in-law’s advice, but you’re not sure what the big deal is.

Well, it just so has it that Midtown Jewelers in Reston is the renowned expert in the big deal that is platinum.

What is the difference between platinum and white gold?

White gold appears naturally white in color, but it’s not, actually; white gold is an alloy created using yellow gold, and will need to be re-plated over time to maintain its white shine. Platinum, on the other hand, is a naturally white precious metal that will never lose its luster.

Why is platinum more expensive than gold?

Wait, platinum is more expensive?

Yes, platinum is more expensive than gold, but you’ll only ever buy one engagement ring, and remember, “only the best for his little girl.” Platinum is rare: In fact, 30 times more rare than gold. Not only does its rarity affect price, but to fashion a platinum engagement ring requires a higher level of craftsmanship.

What makes platinum so special?

It’s rare. Just like her. But there is much more to it than that.

Platinum is pure.

In addition to its natural, everlasting white color, platinum is typically 95 percent pure (whereas 18 karat gold is 75 percent pure). It never fades, never tarnishes, and is naturally hypoallergenic — perfect for your lady’s sensitive skin.

Platinum is versatile.

Platinum is the preferred medium of jewelry designers the world over, from Fabergé to Cartier. This precious metal is so remarkably versatile, and pliable — it can be drawn out to a fine wire, and made into any shape your heart, or hers desires.

How do I know that the ring is made of platinum?

Look for the hallmark. Each piece of platinum jewelry must be stamped with one of a few symbols or market to verify the high-quality, pure precious metal.

How can I tell platinum from other metals?

By its weight. Platinum is much denser than gold. A ring made of platinum will be approximately 40 percent heavier than an identical ring made of gold.

Reston’s premier fine jeweler, Midtown Jewelers, is the place to go, when only the finest platinum engagement ring will do for daddy’s little girl.

Last week was all about the fat man in a red suit.

This week is all about slinky dresses, beautiful skin, and spike heels and shiny jewels.

This week is all about New Year’s Eve, and the dress code is festive. You’re so excited; it’s the most jovial night of the year, one you wait every minute for from January to December, and yet… You have no idea what to wear.

Luckily, we know just the thing.

Something with sparkle

Each new year brings new possibilities, and if there’s a single night to shine like the shining beacon that you are, it’s New Year’s Eve. Rock a full-sequined number, of if you prefer something a little demure, accessorize the night away with a glittery belt, a sequined bolero jacket, a rhinestone-encrusted sash, a gold clutch, or a heel that twinkles at the stroke of midnight.

A little white dress

Yeah, we mean white. In Brazil it is custom to wear all white on New Year’s Eve to usher in a year of good luck. Also, white looks really wonderful when accessorized with lots of gold jewels and accessories.

Emergency foldable flats

You’ll start the night dressed to the nines, but chances are by nine o’clock, your feet will be begging for a break from those four-inch stilettoes. Pack a pair of foldable flats just in case it happens. There is nothing less festive than hobbling around in search of champagne.

And statement jewelry

Something big, something bold, something shiny —

Something maybe a little like this from Jorge Revilla Or maybe this from Sofer Jewelry is a little more your style:

Whatever your fancy for fancy jewels on this fanciest of nights, there’s one place in Reston that’s sure to have just the thing:

Visit Midtown Jewelers today for the perfect New Year’s Eve accessory.
