TACORI at the Primetime Emmy Awards – 2010

Celebrities took to the Red Carpet wearing TACORI this weekend for events surrounding the glamorous Primetime Emmy Awards!  Betsy Brandt (Breaking Bad – ‘Marie Schrader’), Amanda Righetti (The Mentalist – ‘Grace Van Pelt’), Autumn Reeser (Entourage – ‘Lizzie Grant’), Tenley (The Bachelor and The Bachelor Pad) and Whitney Port (The City) all sparkled in fabulous TACORI jewels.

From the Emmy-nominated “Best Drama”, Breaking Bad star Betsy Brandt walked the Red Carpet in a quarter-million platinum & diamond suite from the TACORI vault.  Her diamond-encrusted collar necklace was right on trend, combined with the matching platinum and diamond bracelet and understated Dantela stud earrings (style: FE64345, $10,000).

Emerald Cut engagement ring - HT2273

The emerald cut diamond can be absolutely stunning.  This regal shape has been worn on the left hand of diamond-loving women such as Elizabeth Taylor, Ellen Pompeo, Camilla Parker Bowles and Melania Knauss.

Because of its clean, long lines, the emerald cut tends to be less fiery than a “round brilliant” cut, but it also tends to have broader, more dramatic flashes of light.  The trim lines of emerald cut diamonds lend an elegant, sophisticated air to both the simplest and most elaborate ring settings.

For your consideration from Tacori, we unlocked our vault and unearthed a 6 carat D-flawless emerald cut diamond, set within a Crescent Sihouette setting, which brings the total diamond presence to over 10 carats total weight.   While still smaller than the impressive 12 carat emerald cut diamond engagement ring that Grace Kelly was given from Prince Rainier, we think this Tacori ring is ever so worthy of a princess (or queen).

Nothing says “vintage” quite like a cushion cut diamond engagement ring.  This romantic diamond style hearkens back to the olde days with its rounded “pillow like” shape and the exceptional length and depth of the cushion cut diamond.

The cushion cut is an antique diamond cut that used to be called a “candlelight diamond”, referring to the way it was cut prior to electric lights, and a time when diamonds were measured in sparkle by the brilliance they exhibited in candlelight.

Thus, sultry candlit rooms are the perfect backdrop for a cushion cut diamond engagement ring to show its best fire, because this diamond shape will sparkle in the dark of night or the day with light.  Although not as fiery or brilliant as many of the newer cuts, it has a marvelously romantic and classic look and definitely stands out from the crowd.

A cushion cut diamond is for a woman of style who demands to be set apart by her discerning tastes.  In point of fact, this featured cushion cut diamond engagement ring is literally a one-of-a-kind heritage design from Tacori — made especially for a Tacori family member — and destined to be a Tacori treasure for the vault.

The elegant simplicity of this composition was striking, as was the modern & vintage feel, personified through the main image of the chicly netted veil. And while this set felt unique to the creator (crisss26), the Tacori jewelry she selected stood out on the set and immediately made this composition feel “Tacori” too.

As other spots filled out in the winners circle, there were so many other fabulous entries that deserve recognition, including (Ketsy) and ALL of her amazing sets,  (♥Rachel♥) for her beautiful vision of her own upcoming wedding, (JO) for her lusciously playful Tacori creations, and (love2shop4) for her incredible passion to create the perfect Tacori Wedding Day.    Thank you to the entire Polyvore community – amazing and inspirational creativity.
