Mouseketeer Memories Blue Sapphire & Diamond Necklace

Mousketeer Memories
& Beach Blanket Bingo

Some things are etched forever in memory. Saw this piece and suddenly it was 1955 and I was 6. The Mouseketeers and Annette Funicello were on tv. Crazy? Yes. Then again, it’s what I saw. Poofy hair curling at the shoulders, big smile. She went on to do a series of beach party movies.

Giving this association and memory might dissuade you, or if you were a fan this may very well be the perfect necklace. 14K yellow gold, 6×4 oval beach-brilliant blue sapphire. One accent diamond at the top, one on the left and right sides. It’s her smile. Poofy hair in gold. 18” gold chain places this 2” from your heart.

Why a Cross Blue Sapphire is the Best

We love blue. We know blue. We live by the blue sea, beneath summer blue skies. Even our business is located on a peninsula called Portland, surrounded by saltwater on three sides. We can feel the blue pulsing with every tide. Even from the rooftop of our building we can see the open sea. Binoculars show ships coming and going on a blue, blue sea.

We love blue sapphire, it’s bright, brilliant and is amazingly durable as the second hardest gem to diamond – making it a highly wearable gem. Ideal even for rings. We love blue sapphire, we love it so much we’ve traveled to southeast Asia to find first choice colors. We choose a lighter, brighter blue than most American jewelers because it shows up best under a wide range of real world lighting conditions. Our blue sapphires look and perform best on sunny summer days to candlelit dinners for two. We want your blue sapphire to dazzle you, dazzle your partner, and everyone in any room you choose to visit. Cross blue sapphires are the best.
