The Jewelry Podcast Cecilia Kores

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.
After you have listened to this episode, you will have a great understanding of exactly what you should look out for when it comes to choosing the best diamond for you!
Please note: this episode was recorded on Dec 11, which was the day after the Nobel Prize Giving Ceremony, where Hanna was asked to expert comment in the Swedish Royal News Magazine Svensk Damtidning. During the first ten minutes of this episode (the intro) we therefore delve into the discusson of: what jewelry is actually fit for a princess?
Enjoy!

It's time to go back to basics!
In this episode, me and Hanna are contemplating:
What fine jewelry means to usHow you know if the jewelry you have at home is fine or not? (For example if you have gifted or inherited pieces - how can you know if they are fine or fake?)Why is fine jewelry so costly? (Is it?)How our view of fine jewelry is different today compared to a few years ago
Of course, we also share the hard facts: what is actually fine jewelry? There is actually a legal definition for a jewelry piece to be allowed to be called a fine jewelry piece, and you will learn that today!
What does fine jewelry mean to you? Share in DM on instagram!

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: 
The first is that it gets a shape - round, square, pear shaped etc. The second thing is that the stone starts to reflect light - I call it the sparkle factor! 
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:
The pros and cons of the most popular gemstone cuts What cut you should choose if you want a really glamorous gemstoneWhat cut that is the most common one in the world What cut that makes any stone sparkle the most! What cut you should avoid for stones that aren't of the highest quality What cut that looks relatively small - but still is quite expensiveWhich gemstones that probably are the most environmentally friendly - and that have a subtle, beautiful vintage glow!
I hope you will find this episode valuable!
The cuts we talk about in this episode:
The Brilliant Cut The Princess Cut The Asscher CutThe Old European Cut (Antique cut diamond)The Old Mine Cut (Antique cut diamond)
Enjoy!
And don't forget: you deserve fine jewelry.

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!
