Stylistic key rings take off in popularity April 7, 2008
Posted by Jill Renee in : Jewelry , add a commentHave you noticed that more and more people are placing their keys on sterling silver keychains than ever before? The popularity of unique keychains seems to be in an upswing right now, as an increased number of people are sporting keychains that fit their personality. Many are seizing the opportunity to celebrate their individuality by picking keychains that match their hobbies and interests.
Some of the more popular keychains resemble animals. Dog lovers these days are quite fond of sterling silver dog keyrings with easy open safety latches. Danforth has a stunning dog keyring available that was manufactured in Italy by a talented keyring artist. The intricate detail of the ring is sure to turn heads. The dog’s head winds around the latch in spectacular fashion, and its eyes, ears, and nose have such exquisite detail that it almost looks like it could come alive and begin asking for pets. The floppiness of the dog’s ears also seems to have been captured well by the artist. The dog’s neck even has a little collar with a metal latch on it.
Maybe you’re more of a duck fan than a dog fan. Danforth has duck keyrings with easy open safety latches too. Not to be outdone by the dog keyrings, the duck keyrings were also designed with lavishing detail. Its eyes and cheeks glisten when light is shined on them, and its beak has the markings of perfection. Most people who place their keys on this keyring are quite satisfied. They find it a simple and effective way to demonstrate their love for the duck population.
Keyrings celebrating sports also make excellent gift items. If you’re like me, you know at least one person who has taken their love for a sport to a near-obsessive level. Let’s say that sport is golf, and that person’s birthday is around the corner. You’ve already gotten them every book on golf worth its salt, they already have enough golf balls, and they don’t need any more clubs. What golf related item can you get them that they don’t already own? How about a sterling silver and heavy rubber golf keychain, which is always a favorite amongst golf fans. Another item manufactured in Italy, this golf keychain is attractive and sturdy. A golf ball screws onto the heavy rubber loop threaded though the golf club to hold your keys firmly in place. It’s the perfect item to accompany you everywhere, especially on the golf course.
True fishing enthusiasts enjoy anything fish related, and fishing keychains are no expection. Danforth has a unique sterling silver and leather fish keyring that should delight any fishing fan if they receive it as a gift. Also handcrafted in Italy, this keyring resembles bait and is extraordinarily detailed. If someone opens a box and finds this in it, the first thing they will likely notice is the extreme attention to detail that the artist put in, and that’s what truly puts this gift over the top in comparison to other fishing related gift ideas. I doubt someone could go wrong if they present this item to a fisherman or fisherwoman.
Finding a keyring that fits a person’s unique personality is the ultimate goal when selecting gifts, and Danforth is happy to aid in this quest. I think you’ll find that it has an outstanding selection of stylistic keyrings, as a well as a wide variety of engagement rings, bracelets and many other jewelry items.

Spring Jewelry Fashions for 2008 March 18, 2008
Posted by Jill Renee in : Jewelry, Diamond Jewelry , add a commentSpring is right around the corner and new spring jewelry fashions are starting to hit the scene. What will be popular this year? Well, spring means spring break for many college students, and there is a wide variety of beach jewelry perfect for lounging on the sand or swimming in the sea. Shell jewelry is extremely versatile. Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and other items made from puka shells, white clams, tiger and white shells come in different colors and designs. And these colors can withstand the wear and tear of the ocean without losing their coloration.
When the sun goes down, vacationers start to get ready for a long spring break tradition: hopping spring break parties. Hoop earrings, charm bracelets, and briolette necklaces are the perfect party accessories, and the beauty of these jewelry pieces is that they can be as understated as possible or as flamboyant as one would like. The men have a huge selection to choose from as well; they can go the route of soft leather necklaces embellished with beads to titanium bracelets to diamond stud earrings.
But what type of jewelry trends are likely to be the most popular as we enter the new season? Fortunately, I have some ideas. Topping the list of popular jewelry is the classic pendant. Jewelry may very well take on a more classic look for spring 2008 since the classic heart motif worn as a simple pendant appears to be making a comeback. Even though this look was in strong demand on Valentine’s Day, we predict that its popularity will continue to flourish through the spring and the summer. You’ll probably also witness a wide variety of pendants worn on simple cords and chains with motifs that reflect the unique personality of the person wearing them. The classic pendant is indeed a very unassuming look that meshes well with the normally flamboyant clothing people tend to wear in the spring.
The hoop earring should also be among the favorite fashion statements of the spring season. Hoop sizes truly run the gamut. Sizes range from huge, oversized single hoops to popular interlocking triple hoop earrings. Be on the lookout for hoops lined with gemstones in popular shades of green and blue, such as aquamarine and peridot. Also expect to see people wearing the more traditional shades of color.
We’re also predicting that sterling silver key rings will be popular in the spring. Since these key rings are ideal gifts for important events such as graduation, many people may be walking around sporting them, given the large amount of students who graduate college in the spring. Spring is also prime tennis season, and Danforth has a marvelous Sterling Silver Tennis Raquet and Monogram Disc Keychain that many tend to enjoy using in the spring. Bringing it to the court may even help your game. A little Danforth good luck charm, if you will.
Even though the fashion world is constantly changing, people still have the tendency to put their own unique spin on the current styles. I hope we at Danforth can help you achieve whatever unique look you are searching for. Happy Shopping!

As the soon-to-be bride-to-be, you’re all set to say “yes.” And the best part – instead of purchasing a ring, you and the fiancé have decided to use a family heirloom instead.
Hold on sister. Before you accept that heirloom, you may want to think twice. While the idea of an heirloom engagement ring may ooze with romance, accepting the gesture can be more of a headache than it’s worth.

The Top Destination Proposals January 22, 2008
Posted by Jill Renee in : Diamond Jewelry, Diamonds, Engagement Rings, Romantic Tips, Proposing Marriage, Buying Engagement Rings, Buying Diamonds, Destination Proposals , add a commentWhile finding the perfect ring to propose with can be an exhaustive search, what really seems to confuse many is the actual proposal itself. When and where to pop the question can be stressful at best, and since it’s a story that you’ll both be telling for the rest of your lives together, getting it right is incredibly important.
With that in mind, more and more couples are turning to the destination proposal as a way to give the beginning of their lives together a unique twist that makes it their own. While the destination proposal will certainly take quite a bit of planning, with a little help from friends and family, and a nice sized bank account, the following destinations are a great way to ask that special someone to spend the rest of their life with you.
Venice, Italy
A city built on the water, there are few cities in the world more romantic than Venice. While proposal locations within Venice are numerous, I suggest skipping out on St. Mark’s Square and taking a gondola ride for the proposal. The combination of singing, privacy, scenery, and the tradition of kissing while passing under bridges, is the perfect combination for a proposal that will stick in her mind forever.
Paris, France
The city of lights is sure to light up her face when you show her the diamond engagement ring you’ve selected for her while standing atop the Eiffel Tower. With a view of the city that can’t be rivaled, you’re sure to take her breath away when you get down on one knee hundreds of feet in the air with all of Paris as your backdrop. Rumor has it that this was the method Tom Cruise used when he proposed to Katie Holmes.
