The Lupus Butterfly and What it Means

admin — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 19:00:44 +0000

In 2008, we were approached by the Illinois Chapter of the Lupus Foundation of America and asked if we would be interested in working with them. For those of you who may not be familiar with Lupus, it is an autoimmune disease. This means that one’s own immune systems attacks its cells and tissues believing that they are harmful foreign cells and tissue.

Lupus can effect many different parts of the body, including the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, nervous system, joints, and skin. Lupus is often unpredictable and can be very painful, with flare ups that cause skin irritation and tissue damage.

One of the common symptoms of Lupus is what is known as The Lupus Butterfly – a purple rash that develops across the nose and cheeks of those who have Lupus. In working with the Illinois Chapter of the Lupus Foundation of America, we developed our own Lupus Butterfly; it is a 1/4ct diamond and amethyst butterfly pendant set in 14k white gold.

With every Lupus Butterfly Pendant we sell at SuperJeweler.com, we donate $60 to the Illinois Chapter of the Lupus Foundation of America. This donation helps educate people about Lupus and provide support for those who endure the effects of Lupus every day.

We ask you to help us make a difference and get an adorable piece of amethyst gemstone jewelry at the same time. And if you love the Lupus Butterfly Pendant as much as we do, then you may also want to explore our other fine gemstone jewelry as well.

Big and Bold: Be The Fashionista

Sure, jewelry is technically an accessory, but more and more, people are seeing just how the right piece of jewelry doesn’t just complement the outfit: it steals the show. Maybe you saw them on the red carpet at The Oscars. They were big. They were bold. They were Angelina Jolie’s. They were some amazing emerald earrings! And what about Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, where Blake Lively’s Diamond Butterfly Ring practically deserved its own photo shoot?

These days, big and bold is everywhere. Of course, there are two schools of thought when it comes to jewelry. Some people prefer to have well stocked collections with safe choices for every occasion, like diamond stud earrings. And there are those who opt for a few really knockout pieces. While most of SuperJeweler.com is dedicated to the former, our Fashionista Collection is full of some incredible, attention-getting pieces — some of which have been spotted on Blake Lively and Chilli from TLC.

Right now there are a lot of “jewelers” trying to capitalize on this trend by charging 5-figure prices or going in the complete opposite direction and charging dirt cheap prices and sticking customer with fake stones, poor workmanship, cheap metals, or any combination of these things. And that’s a shame.

At SuperJeweler.com, our Fashionista Collection is comprised mainly of darling and daring animal designs set with plenty of stones in brilliant 14k white gold. Best of all, they are priced well. You get a great price on each piece in our collection. If you have been looking to add that one drop-dead gorgeous piece to your collection, then you have to check out the SuperJeweler.com Fashionista Collection.

The Blake Lively Butterfly Diamond Ring

At Mercedes Benz Fashion Week 2008, Blake Lively (of Gossip Girl and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 1 & 2) made waves with her beautiful two-tone gold and diamond butterfly ring. Unlike most celeb fashion, however, this one is totally affordable for the everyday shopper!

How many time have you seen it? Celebrity red carpet fashion that gets raves, but costs a fortune. In fact, there has been a new trend on television and in magazines that tell you how to get that celebrity look at a fraction of the price.

At SuperJeweler.com, we do things a little bit differently. We believe that every piece of jewelry we offer should not only be beautiful to look at, but also within the reach of most people’s budgets. The perfect example is our gorgeous Elegant Two-Tone Gold Multi-Level 3/4 Carat Diamond Butterfly Ring. You may have seen it in the pictures at US Weekly or in forums across the Internet as it adorned the hand of Blake Lively at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week 2008.

First we would like to thank Ms. Lively for her choice (and excellent taste), as it gives us at SuperJeweler.com an opportunity to show not only the caliber of our jewelry, but to show off a little when it comes to the price, too. So how much? Well, this ring normally retails at nearly $3,500! You, however, can get it from SuperJeweler.com for WAY less! To find out just how much less: click here!

And if you know someone who might be interested in this amazing ring, you can send him/her to our Blake Lively Diamond Butterfly Ring page so they can see it for themselves.

…or, you know, you could just buy it for her for Christmas or something. I’m just sayin’ is all.
