Hi, I just received a $1,000 Judith Ripka gift card from American Express today and was wondering if her jewerly is better (in terms of quality) than David Yurman?

Also, I am not sure what piece to get. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

Wow! $1,000 for Judith Ripka is great.
I don't think her jewelry is any better than David Yurman, but it is definitely in the same caliber. She is very much into hearts so if you like hearts, you will be in heaven. I would get a very nice chain and some pendants/enhancers. She has some really spectacular ones. Or if you are a big ring girl, she will definitely have something to fit the bill.
I'm so excited for you; be sure to post pics of your loot!

A ring for sure, Judith Ripka does some amazing domes rings with really cool detailing such as hearts built into the back of the designs and extremely intricate detailing in the gold or silver...depending on what your looking at!
and as Kitsungrl says she also has great chains and pendants... so whatever your taste just make sure you share with us!!

I just received a gift card from AMEX as well. Before I get too excited, do you know if there are any restrictions or minimum purchase requirements?

Also, can someone tell me the price range of her jewelry?

Thank you!

I love her stuff too. She is a talented woman.

cola262 · Nov 15th, 2008, 01:32 AM

she makes beautiful jewelry! I think $1000 can get you 2 rings or 1 bracelet.

wow! that's a great perk!
i would get a fun cocktail ring.

I just got the same gift card, but if you read the back it says it's only valid for her 18k gold couture collection. There is no minimum purchase, however, it appears that even the least expensive pieces from that collection are pricey.

I'll go to one of the boutiques near me in the next few weeks and report back if I get anything. From looking online, I'm not sure I really love any of the styles, but I would hate to 'waste' $1000!
