Styles In Jewelry.

with ear rings, and perhaps sleeve but
,ons to match. Something unique in
lesign is sought for in these pins, and
antique styles are most liked. Bars of
pale yellow gold are Ornamented with
Etruscan work in fine twisted wire, or
the word Roma, or else pendant vases.
Indian, Turkish and Egyptian designs
are orDamented with rams horns, cres- |
cents, serpents, scarabei, or lotus
leaves, and are richly enameled with
dark red, blue and green. Japanese
designs are more light and fanciful,
showing open fans of gold in lace-like
patterns tipped with turquoises, a
crane swinging in pendant ring, or
else tiny square tile of japanese
bronze is mounted on colored gold; $40
or $12 will buy scarf-pin of nice de-
sign and workmanship, though many
are far more expensive. Colored Colds,
caused by copper alloys, and also plat
ina, are still much used. Stone canoes
and large amethysts, of a simple to-
paz cut intaglio, are set in handsome
scarf-pins.
EARRINGS are short, flat rather than
in ball shape, and are fastened in way
that brings them close against the lobe
of the ear. They are made in designs
to match the long brooches just de-
scribed. The lotus leaf enameled with
red, blue and green makes most grace
full earrings; these cost $12 for the ear
rings; $50 buys the set with long
brooch. Filigree gold butterflies that
seem to have just lit upon the ear, SO
closely are they attached, are $40 for
the pair. Hanging yellow gold vases
of slender classic outline are SO. An
enameled blue and green pair repre-
senting the Nile key is SIS. Japan
csc fans spread and enameled are very
pretty. Turquoises are still favorite
stones for hoop earrings, for horse
shoes and bars, associated with
pearls. The crescent is a popular de-
sign at present in jewelry, and is seen
in brooches, ornaments for the hair,
bracelets, earrings and finger-rings.
There are Turkish sets showing domes
of mosques, and some have the minaret
and crescent. One beautiful pair of
earrings at $40 is the dome of Chi
nese pagoda with pendent turquoises.
Enameled Egyptian sets of simple de-
sign, with brooch included, are $37.
Cfeopatra's Needle, with the winged
globe beneath, is fashionable design
for jewelry.
For the hair are large ornamental
pins representing stars, lotus leaves,
butterflies, dove, or flower mounted
on curled wire, that makes the Orna-
ment culver as the wearer moves.
These begin az low as 1928. Large hair
pins of pure gold are sold for fastening
on the veil, and are luxuries INDUCED
in by ladies with golden hair; they cost
from SO to s. each.
Lockets are arranged to serve also as
brooches, and are ornamented with the
Indian, Roman, Turkish and Japanese
designs already described. These cost
from S12 upward. Black velvet dog
collars now rival gold necklaces as a
support for lockets. Some are fastened
by gold clasps, and others have a jew.
eled spray set on the front. The new.
est necklaces are light and slender, in
stead of the massive links lately in
vogue. Bracelets vary from the most
delicate ring of gold, with paddock OF
jeweled clasp, to the heaviest bands
the latter are quite plain, or else they
have open threads of gold mounted
with ieweled decorations. There are
also bracelets of Persian design, made
of the lightest gold threads in lace-likt
patterns, yet SO strong that they cannot
be crushed. Watch-chains have bal
to fasten in the button-hole of the dress
Canoes are shown for rich sets O
iewelry, mounted with pearls, dia
monds and cOlored gold settings o.
quaintest design. There is fancy fol-
canoes with black grounds, with a pal'
tlesh-tinted stratum for the figure. Sea
rabei cut in topaz are also much liked
The fancy in setting diamonds is t.
mass them in a design entirely of dia
monds, yet suggesting symbol of al
idea; thus pendant, which is also
brooch, represents crescent, or
pansy, dove, a feather, a star or :
shell. There is no gold visible, and sill
yer is much used in the setting. Their,
are also bar pins of black onyx, OF
which are pendent diamonds that vi
brate. Crescents of red gold have thu
center filled in with diamonds. Coloret
pearls, pink, pale gray, cream-coloret
and black, are among choice jewels fol
| full dress.
A mere thread of gold supporting &
solitaire diamond is the favorite en-
gagement ring, though there is more
latitude than formerly in the choice o
stones for such rings. A sapphire o.
an emerald is now frequently selected
and sometimes both are seen togethe
with diamond between. The Ions
slender medallion is preferred in sucl
rings; it is sometimes set diagonally
but seldom in round cluster. Very
pretty rings have three pearls of differ
ent tints-pink, white and cream color
price $75. Tasteful and unique design.
