Me ka aloha from Hawaii…. with love from Hawaii

If you follow me on Insta, I have been guilty of uploading some photos from my recent trip to the beautiful island of Honolulu in Hawaii. I recently travelled with one of my close friends to the stunning island for a girls trip and to celebrate my birthday.

With its stunning beaches and amazing food, Honolulu bought us sun, surf and a good time. We relaxed and tanned on the beach, drank from coconuts and learnt to surf.

For all the shopaholics out there, you can’t go past Ala Moana shopping centre. Housing some of the worlds leading brands, this shopping centre, is a girls playground. Not only did I shop but I had the best turkey burger ever on the centres roof top.

We visited the historic site of Pearl Harbour and went to a traditional Luau where we learnt to hula dance on a beautiful warm Hawaiian night. 

Stayed tuned for my next trip away. 

Until next time…

Kisses, Cassandra Mamone xx

Red Carpet Glamour

We love stepping out onto the red carpet and this time was no exception. We were very excited to have Cassandra Mamone jewellery debut at the Emmys this year. Who could go past the stunning Laura Heath wearing our Almandine Flower Ring and matching Almandine Garnet Earrings to the Creative Arts Emmys. Laura also stepped onto the red carpet at the Prime Time Emmys in a Leah Da Gloria dress wearing the Cassandra Mamone Il Sole citrine and diamond earrings with a matching citrine ring.

Stepping onto the red carpet a little closer to home, Cassandra Mamone was featured at this years Brownlows. Mardi Harwood, fiancé to Crows star Patrick Dangerfield, wore our Fine Rose ring, the Pranzo ring and the Double the Luxury ring from our latest La Donna Collection. Port Adelaide star Hamish Hartlett’s girlfriend, Lauren Jones, wore a collection of beautiful white gold pieces. Starting with the Rose Quartz Emerald ring, to the Heat Swirl ring, Feel the night and Mint Emerald Night ring, the girls looked stunning walking the red carpet in Cassandra Mamone jewellery. 

Until next time…

We see stars...

Lights, Camera…..Red Carpet! When we think of the Logies we think Red Carpet fashion. This year we were so excited to have Cassandra Mamone jewellery step out for Australia’s night of nights. We think all the ladies and gents of the evening looked great but not as amazing as the beautiful ladies that walked the red carpet in Cassandra Mamone jewels. 

Our pieces were worn by SBS presenter Janice Petersen and The Projects personality Gorgi Coghlan. Channel 10 presenter Rebecca Morse looked ravishing in all rose gold and diamonds, wearing the Double the Luxury Ear Cuff and Ring and the Amalfi Bride Earrings. Gold Logie Winner Carrie Bickmore donned the Cassandra Mamone Flying Feather Ear Cuff set with sparkling white diamonds and light blue topaz in white gold.

This year's Logies was certainly a night to remember. Be sure to look out for which celebrity our jewellery will be worn by next.

Happy 1 year!

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY

It has been a year since Cassandra Mamone opened our studio on Melbourne Street, North Adelaide and what a whirl wind of a year it has been. 

From officially launching our studio in July to releasing our current collection Havana's Riviera, this past year has been both busy and exciting. We had the pleasure of travelling to Sydney to launch our Havana's Riviera collection to the industry's leading stylists. This year we have also had the likes of high profile Australian celebrities wearing Cassandra Mamone pieces.

We are very excited for the next chapter and we can’t wait to share the journey ahead with you.

Our Signature

We love to make our clients and customers feel special…

Marking a moment in time with a unique piece of jewellery custom made by our gorgeous head designer Cassandra, is something quite exciting. After launching our last collection, Cassandra felt that she wanted to create an exclusive signature in the engagement ring collection for our upcoming AW15 launch.

With this idea in mind, the beautiful new signature is set to hit our exclusive engagement ring collections and will feature the birthstone of Cassandra. The sultry, feminine Ruby will feature on the inside of the ring band next to the CM stamp.

Our exclusive signature

Ruby is the most valuable variety of corundum mineral species and can command the highest per-carat price of any coloured stone. The strength of the stone is dependent on the amount of Chromium present, which can be recognised by the depth of colour in the stone.

We can’t wait to show you this exclusive signature, so here is a sneak peak of what you can expect to find next time you purchase a Cassandra Mamone exclusive engagement ring.

We adore this beautiful addition and we hope you do to.

Kisses,

CM Team xx

Lake Como inspires our next collection...

When we think of Lake Como we think of luxury and the finer things in life and this is exactly what our next collection is based on. Sourcing exquisite 2 and 3 carat diamonds including round, oval and marquise shapes, creates the basis for our engagement ring collection. 

Our head designer Cassandra has used a floral aspect reminiscent in the surrounds of Lake Como, within the collection. Sourcing Swiss Blue Topaz, to be featured in beautifully designed ear cuffs and sultry Almandine Garnets incorporated in floral designed ring and earrings.

Our gorgeous head designer has also incorporated a new signature to our luxury engagement range. A small red Ruby will feature next to the CM logo on the inside of each luxury engagement ring….More to come in our next blog.

A timeless gift

heir-loom 

by definition: A family possession handed down from generation to generation.

We may be lucky at some point in our life that we have the honour of receiving a family heirloom. Generations worth of memories and stories that are passed down the family line holding much sentiment and worth. 

Well, our story begins with the lovely Christine wanting to create a piece that represented not only her style but encompassed her daughter Mila. With this sentimental idea in mind, she asked Cassandra Mamone to design a ring that, one day would become a family heirloom.

Designing the perfect ring

The gemstone zircon was chosen by Christine, as it is the birthstone of December, when Mila was born. Christine also wanted to incorporate Cassandra’s signature millgrain finishing and infinity detailing. 

In the workshop...almost finished

An oval Champagne Zircon was sourced by Cassandra and the ring was made in rose gold as the tone complimented the stone perfectly. Aside from Zircon being chosen for its sentiment, it is a valuable gem that has strong lustre and intense fire that is comparable to a diamond. A halo of bead set white diamonds created a cushion shape surrounding the sparkling Zircon. The finishing touch was Mila’s name and birth date, ’Mila 08-12-2012’ engraved on the inside of the ring. 

Cutest bunny we have ever seen

Mother daughter moments

This gorgeous ring was given to Christine by Mila on Easter and the photo’s just speak for themselves! How cute, we just love them!

Kisses,
