New Pandora Charms 2010 and the Liquid Silver Jewelry Line

It is going to be very exciting to see what the new Pandora charms for 2010 will be.  I am not sure exactly when they are going to be released but if it is similar to last year I will be expecting to see them in the stores late March or early April.  One style of Pandora charms that I like is the silver charms with a little dab of gold on them.  I am hoping to see more of these particular charms included in the Pandora charms 2010 releases.

Pandora Liquid Silver Line of Jewelry

liquid jewelryA recent new line introduced by Pandora late 2009 is the Liquid Silver line of jewelry. As the name implies it is an all silver line of jewelry that is meant to represent the fluid lines of liquid and water as it flows in nature.  As such, the jewelry itself is very finely crafted and designed.  Each piece represents a certain water form such as waves, raindrops, or ripples as they are seen on a still pond. Silver is apparently the choice of metal for crafting this type of jewelry, as it is very easy to work with to produce fluid like shapes.

There are earrings, pendants, bangles and rings in the Liquid Silver collection, and the three themes for the jewelry are Flow, Wave and Bubble.  The individual jewelry can be worn on its own, or similar to other Pandora lines of jewelry, it can be grouped together as it is crafted in such a way that some of the pieces naturally stack up on the other pieces.   It can also be grouped together asliquid pendant matching sets of bangle, earrings, ring and pendant if you like.  Both rings and pendants can be worn with more than one piece of jewelry stacking against the other. Rings are available in both a thicker and a thinner version of the same ring.

Personally, at a quick glance, my preference is first the Flow line as that does just what the name implies, flows nicely to make a great, smooth piece of jewelry. My next choice is the Wave line, and my least favorite is the Bubble line.

While the Lliquid ringiquid Silver collection is certainly simpler in some respects than Pandora charms, it does really have an elegance all of its own and I would be more than happy to be seen wearing it. If you are interested in checking out the whole line of Liquid Silver jewelry, most of the sites that carry the regular Pandora charms online are now also stocking this as well.

Why Pandora Charms Will Be a Popular Purchase in 2010

pandora-braceletWithout a doubt, Pandora Jewelry is one of the biggest charm and bead brands currently on the market.  Rivals, such as Italian Charms or Chamilia charms are nowhere near as popular as Pandora charms.  One would think, with the recent downturn in the economy, that charm jewelry such as Pandora charm jewelry would be less popular and less in demand. However, to the contrary, this does not seem to be the case at all. In fact, more and more consumers are purchasing Pandora charms and Pandora jewelry than previously.

There are several reasons for this, with one being that people are choosing cheaper fashion jewelry over more expensive diamond or other precious stone jewelry. It is much more affordable to buy a completed Pandora charm bracelet, for example, than a diamond tennis or inlaid bracelet yet the overall look is just as stunning! In fact, some people prefer the diversity of mixing and matching Pandora charms over having only one stone or jewel featured on their bracelets.

Another slight shift amongst female shoppers in recent years is that many women are now shopping for their own jewelry.  Once, it was thought that jewelry should be given as a gift and very rarely would a women buy, or at least admit to buying, their own jewelry. Now, however, it is a very common sight to see a woman shopping and trying on jewelry, and this is not limited to only bracelets either.  Even in situations where Pandora charms or a Pandora bracelet is given as a gift, it is still very common for the woman who received it to, in time, end up adding to her Pandora charm selection especially as there are fairly frequent seasonal releases of Pandora charms and Pandora jewelry.

Pandora jewelry, including the very popular Pandora charms, are now also carried by many jewellers.  In years past, many top jewellers exclusively carried expensive diamond, gold and other precious stoned jewelry and they had little interest in fashion jewelry, even expensive fashion jewelry. However, because of trends stated above, many renowned jewellers are now proud to carry the Pandora line of jewelry, and in doing so they have found that they are a very good selling item. While they may not be showcased with the other expensive jewelry pieces, Pandora charms and other Pandora jewelry usually takes up a fairly prominent location in the stores.

Of course, Pandora charms have been available from various online distributers for some time now and it is very easy to purchase this jewelry online.  If you are interested in finding how you can purchase them without ever having to stop by a jewelry shop, a simple online search for Pandora Charms will bring up a whole slew of websites to choose from.

Whatever your particular taste, you will also be sure to find something that suits perfectly from amongst the Pandora pandora earringscharms jewelry line. I personally really prefer the Pandora charm bracelets, but I have considered buying their earrings from time to time.  I am also interested in their Pandora necklaces as well, but while I do own a Pandora charm bracelet and I love adding Pandora charms to it (especially every time new Pandora charms are released) I have not as yet taken the plunge to buy other jewelry. Perhaps I’m waiting for someone to buy it for me!

Onto news:  A little titbit of news I recently heard is that the inner core of the murano glass Pandora beads will no longer be made from the nice, shiny silver, but instead it will show a dark oxidized thread.  As this difference will not  be noticeable when you wear the Pandora charm on your bracelet, it really should not make any difference. Still, I think I would prefer to have a nice shiny silver core.

If you would like to give someone a gift of Pandora charms, or an entire Pandora charm bracelet, but you have no idea what they would like or perhaps you really want them to choose just what they want, one idea is to give a gift voucher. For example, Demnark Beads offer gift certificates for as little as $20, as do quite a few other online retailers. A great idea for when you know what you want to buy as a gift, but you do not feel so qualified to make the actual choice yourself.

New Pandora Charms Fall 2009|2009 Fall Pandora Beads

I have already written about the new Pandora wood beads in another post, so here is an update on their other new releases and what you can expect from the Pandora Fall 2009 selection.

Fall 2009 Gold Pandora  Charms

gold-filigre-diamondsThe Pandora Gold Filigree Hearts & Diamonds Charm is a delightful charm, where heart designs are punctuated with a small white diamond, all around the open charm itself. There is also one featuring black diamonds as well, both very stunning!

A solid 14k gold Little Girl charm would also be a great addition to anyone’s Pandora charm bracelet!  Not as intricately designed as some of the other Pandora Beads, this one is still really worth it’s weight in gold!  And of course there is also a gold Little boy charm as well. Perfect gifts for anyone who has just had a new baby!

If you are after a touch of elegance, you may want to check out the Pandora 14K gold charm which has a small diamond set into it, and a gorgeous pearl hanging from it. Definitely very classy!

Fall 2009 Silver and Gold Mix Pandora Charms

One of the new charms is an open silver charm, with small white diamonds set in gold.  This is a very nice charm, an silver-gold-palmelegant yet very pretty design.

The Pandora Silver Autumn Leaves Charm with 14K Gold balls set on it is also a rather nice simple design, which is perfect for Autumn!

There is a lovely charm featuring silver palm trees, with gold coconuts hanging from them. I think this makes an excellent addition to either the summer or holiday charms.

A hanging charm, the Pandora sterling silver charm with a pink rhodolite stone set in 14k gold, is simple yet pretty.

Another great seaside or holiday charm is the Pandora sterling silver charm with a 14k gold sea horse dangling from it.

Fall 2009 Silver Pandora Charms

silver-bell-pearlMoving onto the silver charms now, there is a set of gorgeous, vibrant solid Sterling silver Oval Lights charms, with large either blue, black or ruby  cubic zirconia stones set in an oval shape on the bead.

Another new pendant style charm is the Pandora sterling silver weave charm with either a beer quartz or pink amethyst   pendant dropping from the simple charm.

A very dainty and feminine charm, the Pandora sterling silver Peace & Love charm with salmon pink coloured cubic zirconia is gorgeous.  The charm itself has pink cubic zirconia set all around it, while the silver “peace” sign drops from the charm.

If you’re looking for a charm for a Christmas, or even a Wedding gift, check out the new Sterling Silver Bell with a simple pearl pendant hanging.  Simple in design, yet very classic looking.silver-panda

Similar to the bell charm in design, the Flowers with grey pearl  is also a great gift idea and would go well with a gift of perfume and cologne for example. The pearl drops from the flowered designed Silver charm.

Maybe you know someone who loves ballet, or who is a dancer themselves?  There’s a new Sterling silver charm, set with a pink cubic zirconia stone, with ballet shoes pendant.

A very cute, cuddly looking Sterling silver Panda Bear Charm sports black enamel around the eyes, giving it a very authentic look.

There is one charm that closely resembles a happy Buddha, called the Pandora Silver Happy charm. Perhaps wearing that will bring you happiness and good luck, who knows?

If you are looking for a simple and not expensive Sterling silver charm to add to your Pandora bracelet, you should look for the very simple Silver charm with fine lines, or the Sterling silver charm with leaves–again, another perfect Fall bead with it’s reminder of falling leaves.  Then there’s the silver waves charm as well.

I really like the new message charms. These are Sterling silver charms with a message engraved on it, such as “Best Friends”, “Forever together” or “Good Luck”.   Seems like these would be great to give as gifts for those special occasions that come up.

A first, Pandora have released a plain sterling silver charm with two flower engraved amulets that slide apart. You can add your own photograph between the sliding amulets. Naturally, this would look great on a Pandora necklace as well!

Fall 2009 Enamel Pandsilver-1ora Beads

A newly released set of enamel Pandora charms has also been released, in very vibrant enamel colors. The Charms are silver with either turquoise, purple or orange enamel.

Do you know someone who just achieved first place in a competition. Well, there’s now the perfect Pandora charm for them.  Pandora just released a Silver “First Prize” Rosette charm with the number set in yellow enamel. Very creative!

Fall 2009 Pandora Spacers

Looking for new spacers to add to your Pandora charm bracelet?  There is a lovely, delicate gold Flower spacer that would look lovely anywhere on a Pandora bracelet.  If gold is a bit too pricey for you, then you could get the exact same flower spacer, only in Sterling Silver!

Fall 2009 Birthday Pandora Charms

silver-18thWhat a great way to celebrate either a sixteenth , eighteenth or twenty-first birthday–Pandora now has special Sterling silver Birthday Charms. These simple charms have a very plain silver charm with a dangling sixteen or eighteen falling from them.  Great gift idea for a special young woman on her birthday.

Pandora Fall 2009 Pendants

There is also a newly released array of Pendants, which while they could be used on bracelets do seem better suited to wearing on Pandora necklaces.  These include a gold pendant with topaz, a gold pendant with a small diamond stone, one with a moonstone drop or a pearl drop.  A great addition to the Pandora charm jewelry selection.  There are quite a few other new pendants released in the Fall 2009 collection, all fairly moderately priced.

Fall 2009 New Style Pandora Bracelets

As promised, there is a delightful selection of leather or fabric string colored bracelets. You can get these in blue, green, brown or black. I think the new wooden beads would match perfectly with these particular bracelets. The nice thing is that they are very reasonably priced, so you could get several to add to your collection!
