I looked at all their websites just now. Far from timeless. Way to modern to my liking. Those designers are not copied because no one wants them. I thought people wanting to copy your designs was the highest form of flattery?Date: 2/15/2010 7:57:54 PM

When I think of high end, I don''t think Tiff, Cartier, Winston etc. But that''s because their designs aren''t my style and no offense to anyone, but because these brands have become so mainstream, are too easy to copy by an experienced jeweler. And they have been, over and over and over.. etc..
I like very, very, modern. For me, designers like Henrich & Denzel, Niessing, Ulla & Martin Kaufman, and Steven Kretchmer all fit the bill of high end. Their rings are hand made and of exceptional quality, and I have yet to see any of their designs replicated.

I''m loving Scott Kay''s stuff over at Pearlmans. Can you get it any cheaper anywhere else? Dreamer, how do I apply the discount at pearlmans?

Actually, my favorite designer is local for me here in Georgia. However, I would hate to name him now!!!
As far as a mainstream designer, I really like Chris Correia. She is a woman, and her work has this really different look about it.
You can see her work on the Pearlman''s website.
