After establishing herself last year as an ingenius designer of jewelry that combines versatility with haute looks, designer Lata K will introduce several new collections, including new transformable jewelry, at the upcoming JCK Show in the Design Center. Shown here is Whimsy, her newest transformable collection, a marriage of a ring and pendant that can be worn separately as complementary items or brought together to make a splashy flowered ring. Encrusted in diamonds and semi-precious stones in several pastel shades -- click here for a look at the choices -- the pieces can be purchased as a transformable suite or as individual items.

US Astronaut John L. Phillips has taken this set of wedding bands designed by Albuquerque artist M. M. Rogers into orbit 266 miles above the Earth. The rings were specially made for the 25th wedding anniversary of Dr. Phillips and his wife Laura, and were sent in advance to the International Space Station aboard a cargo spaceship. Dr. Phillips himself arrived at the International Space Station on April 17th with the Expedition 11 crew, and will spend six months aboard the station serving as the craft's Science Officer and Flight Engineer. To date the rings, which are traveling aboard ship at 17,500 mph, have gone more than 42,000,000 miles. The handmade sterling silver and 14K gold set is embossed with a sine wave design which Rogers says represents “harmony, balance, and continuity.” Lots more information about the rings, the astronaut and the designer is available here. The M. M. Rogers line will be available for viewing at the upcoming JCK ~ Las Vegas show at booth # 43053 in the StyleMakers pavilion on the first level.

Michou, Known for High-Style Silver, Brings Spring Green Accents to New Cuffs

Cuffs have been a star of the catwalks for the past two seasons so it's no surprise that they now take center stage in the 2005 collection of jewelry designer Michele Sonner of Michou. She is famous for interpreting high-end trends into fine jewelry for the everyday wearer so this season her line features, cuffs, lots of green gems and finely wrought details that denote expert craftsmanship. Michou's newest Eucalyptus Cuff features a new look in silver achieved by putting fine silver over sterling and texturing it to get a unique pearlescent finish reminiscent of mother of pearl. The silver is then framed with 22k gold vermeil wire and embellished with nephrite jade, faceted peridot and peridot cabochons. The result is a handcrafted, museum-quality work of art that can be worn with many types of ensembles and is especially resonant with this year's hot color: green.
