June is one of our favorite times of year here at Russakoff Jewelers. Between the start of wedding season, the return of our summer tourists, and the arrival of fresh jewelry styles, there’s an energy in the air—and on our shelves—that we would love to share with you!
It’s no secret: we love pearls! And June is the perfect month to showcase them, as pearls are the traditional gemstone of the month. Classic, elegant, and timeless, pearls make beautiful bridal gifts, gifts for any June babies in your life, or just a luxurious treat for yourself! We always carry a wide variety of akoya and freshwater strands, along with delicate pearl pendants accented with diamonds. Whether you’re shopping for a bride, a graduate, June baby, or looking to upgrade your personal collection, pearls are always in season.
Tourists and locals alike can’t get enough of Maine tourmaline during the summer months. This locally mined gemstone is a true Maine treasure, and our latest tourmaline pieces are already drawing attention. Andy just finished setting a fresh batch of tourmaline pendants, including a new selection of butterfly styles that are flying off the shelves—literally and figuratively. Each one is unique, vibrant, and handcrafted with care.
Do you have any old gold jewelry you’re not wearing? Bring it in! We’re currently buying a lot of gold and offering cash or 10% more in store credit, which you can use towards anything in the shop—including jewelry repairs. It’s a great way to turn your old pieces into something new and beautiful.
We’re also excited to welcome a new jewelry line to our showcases this month: Peter James. This standout brand is made right in California. As part of our ongoing commitment to support U.S. manufacturers, most of our collections are sourced domestically. Not only does this support American craftsmanship, it’s also helped us avoid many of the import delays and issues affecting others.
Whether you’re hunting for a perfect pearl, looking to add a Maine tourmaline to your collection, or trading in old gold for something fresh, we’d love to see you in the store. Stop by this month and explore what’s new—you never know what treasures you’ll find!
