Regal Diamond Looks Lead this Holiday

Leave a comment


https://www.prweb.com/

Scintilla Diamond Necklace by Beauvince Jewelry

We hope that each piece created by us is enjoyed by multiple generations with the same love and passion as the very first owner.


NEW YORK (PRWEB)

Second generation jeweler, Komal Bajaj Sankar, brings a masterful curation of diamond design to holiday style. Classic and sophisticated, Beauvince Jewelry attains universal appeal with self-purchasing women, as well as those looking for custom engagement ring design. With magnificent high jewelry, Beauvince Jewelry has worked with royal families internationally, creating one-of-a-kind pieces. Now, Beauvince is bringing its signature regal look to its holiday collection.

This season’s Garden of Eden Diamond Suite features 33.65 cts. of fine diamonds, set in luxurious 18K white gold. Rounds, marquise, and pears cascade to create elegant, leafy vines of diamonds sweeping as earrings, and along the neck. The Scintilla Diamond Suite captures old world aesthetic, set in breathtaking 18K yellow and white gold two-tone. Classic, baguette cut diamonds have a ribbon-like swirl, alongside modern brilliant pear, marquise, and round diamonds. Perfectly paired with the Marquise Diamond Band, the parallel marquise diamonds pop against the gold, furthering the statement look.

With its high jewelry aesthetic, Beauvince Jewelry cultivates a delicate balance of pricing statement pieces and custom engagement rings to be affordable. Creating pieces for royalty, as well as high looks for less, the company makes diamond luxury attainable for all.

Komal says, “Jewelry is typically purchased as a celebration of an occasion or oneself. Whether it is someone affluent or an everyday customer, the reason for purchasing jewelry is always momentous. At Beauvince, we want to be a happy and positive part of this momentous occasion and provide our customers with something precious and fitting for them. Often people overspend when celebrating, which they later regret. We want to change that feeling among customers, so they smile and are excited forever after the purchase is made with us, not just for a short time. We want them to feel good about the piece, the price and the experience, and feel secure overall, not ripped off. As a result, we also offer a generous warranty and return policy compared to most jewelry boutiques. Our goal also extends to our design sensibilities where we aim to create a range that has been described as royal, elegant, classic and timeless by our customers, while also being diverse. We hope that each piece created by us is enjoyed by multiple generations with the same love and passion as the very first owner.”

Heart-shaped diamonds are having a renaissance, and the Heart Diamond Ring is a stunning heart halo, perfect for any occasion. Paired with the Longing Hearts Earrings, which feature 7.19 cts. of cascading heart, round, oval, and marquise cut diamonds, a delicate yet sensual duality is achieved. The Amore Heart Diamond Suite brings hearts into a three-tone look, with 18K white, yellow and rose gold—a stunning 29.35 ct. mix and match necklace, earring, and statement ring set.

With an eye for color, Beauvince Jewelry ties in the royal look with exceptional yellow diamonds. The Exuberance Earrings, with 8.47 cts. of radiant fancy yellow internally flawless diamonds, set in platinum, are gala ready. Complementing the sunshine glow, the Elan Engagement Ring is set with a 9.77 ct. fancy yellow VS1 diamond, set in platinum, has a delicate micro-pave halo, and trapezoid side stones to enhance the jewel’s splendor.

While many come to Beauvince Jewelry to treat themselves to diamonds on their own terms, others prefer to work with Komal Bajaj Sankar one-on-one for custom engagement ring consultations. Working only with natural and untreated diamonds and precious gemstones, while offering a lifetime warranty to both trade and private clients, Beauvince excels in customer service, craftsmanship, and delivery. For bespoke diamond design, visit the Beauvince Process online to learn more about consultations, CAD rendering, and the development of one-of-a-kind engagement rings.

From October 25-28th, Beauvince Jewelry will be exhibiting at the New York City Jewelry and Watch Show, at the Metropolitan Pavilion.

Buffalo Wings & Rings Launches New Fall Menu and Introduces Campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Leave a comment



CINCINNATI (PRWEB)

Over the past three decades, Buffalo Wings & Rings has elevated the chicken wing segment and emerged as a standout in the sports restaurant category by providing a higher-quality product and experience than the competition. Now, the club-level sports restaurant brand has unveiled a delicious new fall menu as well as a “RAISE A MUG FOR THE CAUSE” campaign in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

“We are excited to bring these new offerings to our customers this fall,” said Nader Masadeh, CEO of Buffalo Wings & Rings. “We love releasing new flavors, specials and other offerings all year round, as this gives us the opportunity to give fans what they’ve been asking for—more variety and a menu of items that go beyond the tried and true meal options.”

The fall menu includes three exciting additions: Spicy Korean Shrimp, the Old Bay Shrimp Basket and the Tennessee Harvest Drink, which is available from now until November 11. The Spicy Korean Shrimp, featuring hand-breaded, fried shrimp, are tossed in Gochujang sauce atop a bed of Korean BBQ slaw with jalapeños and cilantro. The Old Bay Shrimp Basket, featuring shrimp seasoned with classic Old Bay spices that are hand-breaded and fried, is served with Buffalo Garlic Medium sauce for dipping. Finally, to wash it all down, guests can reach for the Tennessee Harvest Drink: a refreshing mix of Jack Daniels, Amaretto, lemonade, strawberry Reàl and a splash of Sprite.

The brand has also announced its commitment to help find a cure and raise awareness during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with a “RAISE A MUG FOR THE CAUSE” campaign in which each Buffalo Wings & Rings location will sell tumblers that feature the dual slogan “Save Breasts, Eat Wings” for $12.99 or $10 dollars with a beverage purchase. All of the proceeds raised from the campaign will be donated to the American Cancer Society for breast cancer research and awareness. In the past two years, Buffalo Wings & Rings has raised more than $40,000 across the system in support of Breast Cancer Awareness.

“Since the beginning, it’s been our mission to find ways to make a positive impact in the communities and neighborhoods that our Buffalo Wings & Rings restaurants serve,” said Masadeh. “Our commitment to Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the American Cancer Society is another important way we are furthering that mission. We hope our valued guests will join us in the fight against breast cancer this fall.”

Scott Odom’s newly released “Me and JC” is a beautiful tale about not letting dreams go and not losing faith in oneself and in God

Leave a comment


News Image


MEADVILLE, Pa. (PRWEB)

“Me and JC”: a heartwarming children’s book that brings confidence, motivation, and faith in the Lord through a story about young Thumper whose hope was lost when his illness took over. “Me and JC” is the creation of published author Scott Odom, a camp counselor at Camp Sanguinity which is a camp for kids with cancer and blood disorders. He was diagnosed with bone cancer when he was fourteen which resulted in the loss of his right leg above the knee. Yet, he still went on to become the first above-knee amputee to play in a professional basketball game and also cofounded a nonprofit, ABI, which hosts benefit charity basketball games to help kids with cancer and their families. Scott’s mission is to give people hope through his story in hopes it will plant a seed or strengthen their relationship with Christ.

Odom shares, “Me and JC is a story of hope. Thumper’s dream was to become a professional athlete, but his whole life changed when he was diagnosed with cancer which resulted in the loss of his leg. Thumper felt his lifelong dream would never become a reality, and he lived in fear while battling the cancer. He had a hard time fitting in and was ashamed about the way he looked. Thumper was lacking confidence in himself as he would get teased for the way he looked with his robot leg.

“While Thumper was learning how to walk on his robot leg, he found it was very difficult. He was scared and very doubtful; he would never be the same again. Thumper had to learn to build a relationship with his robot leg and trust that it would be there when he took a step, helping him to walk. It was through this battle and relationship in his life where along the way Thumper met a friend that would forever change his outlook on life. This friend gave Thumper the confidence to believe in himself and to know that he has a bigger purpose for his life than what his dream was.

“The story of Me and JC shares the relationship that Thumper has with his friend JC while symbolizing our relationship with Christ. Just as Thumper began to fully trust JC every day, he was able to live out his true purpose. The same goes for anyone who fully trust God daily. No matter what may happen in life, how hard it may get, or how uncertain things may become, trust in Him always and know that you have a purpose in this life.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Scott Odom’s new book is an inspiring read that gives kids who are struggling with cancer or with disabilities someone to look up to or relate to through reading Thumper’s story. Likewise, everyone else will also be inspired in his story as they will see how hard he tried just to overcome the challenges of finding his true purpose in life.

With the author creating a mascot of the main character, Thumper, he is planning to take him all over the country to visit kids in children hospitals, schools, churches, camps, and in many more places to bring the book to life and share the message of hope it has.

View a synopsis of “Me and JC” on YouTube.

Consumers can purchase “Me and JC” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

For additional information or inquiries about “Me and JC,” contact the Christian Faith Publishing media department at 866-554-0919.
