Today we sit down and share the story of a fascinating, daring, charming - and as we will learn, very clever woman: Gabrielle Coco Chanel. Known for the little black dress, the perfume (no 5), the quilted handbags - and her rows and rows of pearls necklaces.
She wasn't loved by everyone - her workers went on strike because of bad working conditions, which most probably was part of the reason why she had to close down her business during several years.
She came from a modest upbringing, where she spent part of her childhood at an orphanage. Soon however, she found that her charm could take her far. She was fond of wealthy men, and continued to seduce them all her life.
She lived through two world wars, several recessions, a huge number of design eras and she always knew whom to work with for her next big project - wheather it be creating jewelry, perfumes or get away from the nazis in 1940's Paris.
Welcome to the world of Coco Chanel!

As a jewelry lover, this is the knowledge you must carry - the basics of the four C´s of diamonds.
If you understand this, you can understand all other gemstones out there! Before we can delve deeper into the world of gemstones in The Jewelry Podcast, we must go through the four C's of diamonds. It's the must-record-and-release-before-everything-else-episode.

Many of you have requested this episode! And all I can say is - welcome to the beautiful world of gemstone cuts.
It is actually the cut that turns a stone into a gemstone! It is the cut that makes it beautiful, and what makes us want to wear the stone in a piece of jewelry.
There are two things that happen when you cut a gemstone:
And there can be a massive difference in the sparkle factor between stones with similar shape, for example between two round stones - which is why have so many different gemstone cuts!
If you think this sounds exciting, then you need to listen to today's episode!
In this episode you will learn:
I hope you will find this episode valuable!

I'm more than excited to have these two cool, Danish sisters on the show!
Pernille Møbjerg and Charlotte Møbjerg Ansel-Henry set up their company The Jewellery Room in 2013, after having both worked successfully with jewellery PR for many years. It started as a two-day jewellery fair on Copenhagen Fashion Week, where they gathered press from all over the world to meet with the biggest names on the Scandinavian jewelry scene. But then the pandemic hit - and the sisters transformed their business into the sales of jewellery, still working with the same brands as before. Today, The Jewellery Room has evolved into one of the largest online market places for Scandinavian jewelry, and for many brands, they are the window to the customers.
In this episode we talk about their mission with The Jewellery Room, their personal career stories, why they love jewellery, how they look at the old stigmas surrounding fine jewelry purchases and how they strive to make it fun and easy. We talk about jewelry trends, what jewelry they think belong in a capsule jewelry wardrobe and the future of fine jewelry!
Enjoy!

Can you love every single piece of jewelry that you buy? Is it possible to avoid having “anxiety pieces” in your jewelry box that you never use?
The last thing you want is your new jewelry purchases to end up in the drawer or on your bedside table causing anxiety every time you see them. But can it be avoided?
We did a non-statistical market research with you - the listeners - and came to the conclusion that these are the seven most common mistakes when you buy fine jewelry:
Mistake # 1:
Not knowing what you are buying
Mistake # 2:
Not knowing your style and taste
Mistake # 3:
Not allowing your style to evolve over time
Mistake # 4:
Buying jewelry of poor quality
Mistake # 5:
Caring too much about what other people think
Mistake # 6:
Not having a plan
Mistake # 7:
Sticking too hard to the plan!
My best tip for you who are just entering into this sparkling word of fine jewelry is simply: Start small. Start wearing jewelry. Do not put all your eggs (money) in the same basket (into one piece of expensive jewelry) in the beginning. Start with something small, e.g. a small diamond ring and start wearing it! Slowly but steadily you will find your personal taste!
The worst thing you can do for your own jewelry development is not to wear any jewelry at all, because then you know for sure that you will never find what you like.
Enjoy!
And don't forget: you deserve fine jewelry.

Today we will sort out everything you need to know about diamonds!
In this episode, we will go through:
I have chosen to name this episode “THE Diamond Episode” (spoiler alert - it is an intense one), and I hope that it is one of those episodes you will return to over and over again.
Because when you have learnt the rules of a perfect diamond, you can throw out the rulebook and find the best diamond for you.
That is to me the best part about diamonds! You will find your own perfect one!
Enjoy!
And don't forget to give our show a rating if you have thirty spare seconds and think that the show deserves it! :)
And remember: you deserve fine jewelry.
The four C's of diamonds
The 4 Cs denote four different quality aspects of a diamond and determine the price of a specific stone - it also explains why there are such massive differences in prices between stones of the same size.
The four Cs are:

The million dollar question that doesn't really have one straight answer.
Because giving the same care advice for all your fine jewelry is kind of like trying to give general washing advice for all types of clothes. You can’t treat an opal and a ruby the same way - the same way you can’t treat your silk delicates the same way you treat your vintage Levi's 501.
But after listening to this episode, you will be one step closer to knowing how to care for most pretty jewels in your jewelry box!
Enjoy!
And remember: you deserve fine jewelry.
