One-of-a-Kind Mom


Mother’s day is celebrated at different times in the year depending on your location in the world. In my opinion, Mother’s day should be celebrated every day, we shouldn't wait for a specific time in a year to honor and appreciate our Moms. However, since a day has been set aside, I believe it should be well celebrated.

Women are always drawn towards jewelry. But instead of just giving her jewelry, let’s see how we can make it more personal:

-   Custom Heritage Jewelry: You can start a custom with your family by getting a piece of jewelry maybe a bangle or ring and customize it with a personal inscription on it and gift it to all the ladies in the family. It could then become something that can be passed on from generation to generation.


-          Birthstone Jewelry: Every month has its birthstone, find a jewelry made with the birthstone of your Mom and give it to her as a gift.

-          Family Pieces: For those who love to try DIY’s (Do It Yourself) this is an idea you can play with. Get brooch pieces from family members and make into a neck piece for her.

All Things Bright and Beautiful


No! Not the hymn, Diamonds or "Blings" as some like to call them.

The month of April is well known for 2 things; the birth of a special person, myself *winks* and Diamonds! Diamond is the birthstone of the month of April.

Diamonds aka unbreakable in Greek, is one of the most familiar gemstone appreciated by people all over the globe today. Aside from its “fire”, “brilliance” and “scintillation” (sparkle), diamonds are one of the hardest gemstones known to man yet.

Unknown to a lot of people, diamonds come in different variations, basically the 4C’s – Color (clear, yellow, pink, blue, etc), Cut (round, princess, pear, etc), Clarity (SI, VS, VVS etc) and Carat (in terms of weight), and different variations means different prices ranging from as low as $200 and as high as “priceless”.

At Zoya's Jewels, part of what we do is find you that unique piece of jewelry that currently suits your needs, and yes, that jewelry can include diamonds and any other jewelry you desire.
