buy Local this Christmas

It’s great to see our friends, families, & neighbors out shopping again.  Not just for us as a store, but for everyone’s sake.  People seem to be happier, more willing to go out and about this Holiday season.  There’s more local spending, which is terrific, because for every $1 spent in a local store, 68% stays within or is re-invested within the community.  Most of us here at Northeastern Fine Jewelry have been so busy this holiday season, that most of our Holiday shopping has been done during our lunch breaks, and usually within walking distance from our stores.  We know how important it is to keep our local economy going, and we’re proud to do our part.

Business has been picking up as of late, and we’re starting to see more foot traffic since years past.  Jewelry does seem to be a very classic, safe bet, especially for those “tough to decide for.”  I know I personally have spent a good amount on jewelry for family within recent years.  Jewelry, Chocolates, & Flowers - always a holiday gift staple.  In fact, this year, we’ve sold more Pandora jewelry items than we ever had, and many other jewelers are seeing the same results.  

Most people have their own bracelet, but can always use a new Pandora bead or two.  Fathers are buying bracelets, beads, even Pandora necklaces for their daughters, & sons for their mothers.  A great product, an easy purchase, and a huge selection.  And one of the best parts about making a Pandora purchase?  Exceptional quality products, fashion-forward style, HIGHLY customizable, and with Northeastern Fine Jewelry backing the product, you know this is something you can trust.  We have a great return/exchange policy, (one that simply can’t be beat) and of course, You’ve got our name tied to the product, and our exceptional staff offering their expertise to pair you with the perfect purchase.

At this point, Northeastern Fine Jewelry would like to thank everyone of our fans, neighbors, and newbies, for helping local Brick & Mortar stores, mom & pop shops, etc., through the season.  We encourage you to look around the locally owned businesses for some gift ideas, or at the very least, just stop in and say hi, so we can wish you all a happy holidays. 

Need a great holiday gift idea, and in a bit of a pinch?

electronics are a good way to go, but can be a fad.

clothing could get you in trouble, if you pick the wrong size, or it doesn’t fit juuuuuuuuuustright.

Jewelry is ALWAYS a good fail safe.

Unique jewelry shows you’ve put time into it.

Diamonds are forever.

14 Karat White Gold 3 Stone “Fancy” Pendant 
Glasses can be so obtrusive.
Yes, you do look worldly, and yes, you would look good in front of a bookshelf filled with literary works from Dostoevsky, Chomsky, Dante Alighieri, and of course Hemmingway.  But not in this setting.
a dimly-lit locale with music you’ve never heard of before, perfume’s that tantalize the nostrils, and conversations that make the pretentious seem like they’re not trying hard enough.
Just as you make your way over to select tonight’s self-inflicting drink of choice, you brush up against something… Something that you know could very well change your life, or at the very least, your mindset for the next 10 minutes.
You turn to apologize, not because you’re upset with yourself or what you have done, but rather to make conversation.
You pursue, she withdraws.  She pursues, you withdraw.
Finally you end up at a meeting point - a discussion pertaining to dinners, and your unequivocal statement that you know the best place in town is nothing but a veiled attempt at asking her out on a date.  she chuckles, as she sees right through your guise, but leans over and grabs your forearm.
Just then, you catch a twinkling, a reflection of the dim lighting against something sparkly. 
“My eyes are up here,” she said.
You couldn’t help but stare…

Pink, Multi-Colored Pearl Necklace 
The Sun chose not to show, but the winds made themselves known.
The water was wicked that day. Boats rocked, shook, and toppled, like high-strung and sugar-fed children in a bounce-house.
The diver jumps in, throwing away his fear of the unknown, and swims through the murky waters.  He holds his breath as he swims by what looks to be rusted debris and malevolent sea urchin.
Scouring the bottom of the ocean floor, with line-of-sight viewing a mere 2 feet, he stretches his lanky arms and sways it around the ground, raking at the sand.
his last breath nearly escaping, he reaches out, grabs what he could, and immediately turns over and heads back towards the rough waves.
Could this be it?  Could this be what many have been searching for?  Could this be the find that brings him and his family immediate joy after all their current sorrows?

2 PM Two-fer: 18Karat White Gold PRINCESS CUT.  CHANNEL Wedding Band,
POLISHED PLATINUM DIAMOND WEDDING BAND

“Yes, Dear.”

“Of course, dear.”

“I would love to discuss seat cover colors, dear.”

“Eggplant Roulade sounds terrific, dear.”

After a while, it all starts to feel the same.  Taupe, vanilla, ivory, bone, glossy, matted.  What the hell is Chartreuse, anyway?

Wouldn’t it be nice to just let things take care of themselves?

Like Mickey in the apprentice’s basement, with the broom’s and the mops cleaning up.  Like Garcon, the candleholder, carrying a tune while the dishes washed, sorted, and then put themselves away.

Instead, your every waking moment is spent choosing between…

Lilies or Roses?  Maroon or blood-red?

In the end, there’s only one question that really needs to be answered.

“Do you take this person, for better or worse, to have and to hold?”

14 Karat White Gold Princess Stud earrings - 1.47 Ct TW
Father always knew best.
He knew how to handle himself well.
He treated everyone fairly.
He knew how to change his own oil, how to cut down a tree, and how to drive a stick.
One thing he couldn’t do, however, was pick a present for Mother.
“She’ll love it…” he insisted, as he wheeled the vacuum cleaner around.
“She’ll love it…” he stated modestly, as he chose a dress one-size too large.
“You think she’ll love it?” he asked rhetorically, not really caring for other input as he put the two tickets to the knicks game in his coat pocket.
You’ve said it for years, but he doesn’t listen.  He’s a man of conviction, of pride, and not open to suggestions.  Finally, one year, he stumbled almost blindly into Northeastern Fine Jewelry, and your look of content spreads from ear to ear.
The look on his face quickly turned from overwhelmed, to at peace.
“I bet she’ll like something from here…” he said with a timorous confidence.
You look at his face, with much of a grin.  Finally, finally, you’ve bested him.
Not even a minute was spent before he made up his mind.  
“This one” he proclaimed, almost steadfast.
“This one!” he shouted to any salesperson within earshot.
“THIS one!” he exclaimed, as the gift was being wrapped.
“THIS ONE!” he exhaled, the monkey off his back.
“She’ll love it.” You say, knowing you were right.

2.02 Carat Round Diamond, AGS certified

Hands sweat with nervousness.

Teeth chattered because it was so cold.

“Where are we going?” She asks, coyly.

“I promised to show you Manhattan, didn’t I?” you respond, evoking a sense of confidence.

You both get out of the cab, and start your walk.  Going south on Broad street, she points out all the financial buildings.

“Is that Goldman Sachs? Where are we walking to? is this the financial district? My feet hurt!”

You squeeze her hand tightly, partially because its cold out, partially because you’ve got something that is burning a hole through your pocket, and partially because you’re trying to stay level-headed, with all the butterflies floating around the Sbarro’s pizza near Penn Station.

Finally, you arrive at Battery Park.  there’s a light dusting of snow on the grass, and it’s a bit icy - “How fitting,” you say, smirking.

“alright babe, take a look across the water… what do you see?”

She turns, she squints, and through the slight fog, she sees the Statue, showcasing her flame proudly, for all of New York and New Jersey to see, and for the country to know.

“Thats the statue of Liberty, right!?! I’ve only seen it in pictures…”

She turns back to you, only to see you on bended knee, ready with those four words that change two peoples lives forever…

“Will you please just say yes, my knee is really hurting, it’s really cold out, and I could really go for a hot chocolate, and to be quite honest, I was hoping you’d buy, since You get this beautiful diamond, and all i get is my jeans dirty from kneeling on the ground.”

Fall in Love @ Downtown Schenectady - Success!

Last night, Northeastern Fine Jewelry held a wine tasting down in our downtown store, right in Proctors.

Fall in Love

We had a fantastic turn-out, with close to 50 people who showed up and enjoyed the wine tasting from Freemans Bridge Wine & Liquors, appetizers by Aperitivo, and centerpieces / floral arrangements by Anthology Studios.

Store Manager Kevin DeMassio hosted the event, reaching out to local business owners and residents, as well as our loyal customers.  Kevin was able to showcase his store, with fresh updates and newer products.  Kevin was also able to to keep up with our Pandora promotion, as well!

Thank you to all who showed - we look to have these events more often.

If you would like to be notified of these events, please contact us and ask to be added to our distribution list.

More pictures can be found HERE.
