For Him

Top 5 for Him

Published:November 1,2010

Staten Island,NY –Dongan Hills – When we consider giving jewelry as a gift,we often have in mind a female recipient who may be looking forward to a whimsical accent or a meaningful memento. But men enjoy jewelry,too,sometimes for similar or different reasons. Here are some popular gift ideas for your favorite man:     

Give him a timepiece. While not strictly a jewelry item,a wristwatch serves the functional purpose of telling time while also providing a decorous appearance when viewed as part of a complete look. For example,there are sports watches for the athletically inclined,Rolexes for business professionals,and brands in between that give a masculine yet elegant appeal. Many people have more than one watch,with several for various occasions. Find out if your guy can use one for his complementary lifestyles.  Featured in store brands are Casio G-Shock,Wenger and Citizen Eco-Drive to name a few. 

 

Get him a ring.  A mother might purchase a class ring for her teenage son,while a girlfriend can present a masculine gemstone as a romantic or holiday gift.  Find out if your man likes the feel of a ring on his finger before investing in a contemporary design. If so,come in and browse our selection to find the perfect ring that will have him smiling this holiday season.    

Buy him a matching tie clip and cufflinks. For the man who wears a suit to work or for social occasions,an attractive tie clip will go with many tie and suit styles for a variety of social and professional events. Subtle and trim,the right clip can make a powerful impression. Cufflinks are a great gift that the man in your life may need and want.  Men do not always take the time to buy cufflinks for themselves,making this the perfect opportunity to buy a practical and personalized gift.     

Personalized Cufflinks and Tie Bar

Consider a Neck Chain. Some men enjoy wearing a simple gold or silver necklace,or chain,with a sport shirt or for casual clean up on a date or outing. Long or short,a chain can look dressy without appearing feminine or getting in the way of an active lifestyle. At Casale Jewelers we have a variety of neck chains in stock and those that can be personalized as well.  Consider a religious medal or cross for him to wear close to his heart.  Perhaps a chain featuring his favorite sports team will have him singing your praises.  A neck chain is a wonderful gift that offers a lot of variety.


 
How about CHISEL?
Chisel Jewelry offers a huge selection of contemporary jewelry designs on alternative metals like Stainless Steel,Tungsten Carbide,Titanium and Ceramic.  All made to last a lifetime.  Designs and styles are unmatched and can be worn for any occassion.

Gold price hits $1359.50 an ounce

Based on the London Fix,gold price reached $1359.50 an ounce on October 7,2010.  It was concluded that stress tests on the London Banks failed miserably and gold is the only item consumers can hold on to.

“Customers are coming in each day to sell unworn gold,platinum and diamonds and are happy to walk away making a profit”quotes Cory Schifter from Casale Jewelers.  Casale Jewelers is able to be highly competitive in this market as they refine the purchased gold and reuse to design custom jewelry.  “We cut out the middle man which benefits our customer.  Customers get more cash and we get the refine our own gold”quotes Daniel Schifter,owner of sister company Picturesongold.com.  Cash for Gold booths and Gold Buying stores sell to a refinery and make a profit in the middle.  Casale Jewelers is licensed by the state to buy and sell gold and diamonds.  Casale uses a calculated formula based on the daily gold price.  They refine gold daily to support the design portion of their company.  Refining is a process of heating and melting gold which can then be modified to take on its new shape. 

Gold has been widely used throughout the world as a vehicle for monetary exchange,either by issuance and recognition of gold coins or other bare metal quantities,or through gold-convertible paper instruments by establishing gold standards in which the total value of issued money is represented in a store of gold reserves.

If you would like to contact Casale Jewelers to sell or buy gold,diamonds or platinum,please call Cory Schifter at  (718) 351-8300 or visit their store location at 1639 Richmond Road in Staten Island,NY.  Casale Jewelers has been in operation since 1986 has been owned by Cory Schifter since August of 2009.  Casale Jewelers is a retail jeweler with a jewelry designer,licensed repairman and diamond setter,gold and diamond buyers,and a full staff of trained professionals with over 15 years of experience on site.  The large showroom,located in Dongan Hills,features over 10,000 items in inventory including gold and diamond earrings,pendants,bracelets,necklaces and bridal gifts.

Casale Jewelers gives Islander Second Chance to Pop the Big Question

Casale Jewelers gives Islander Second Chance to Pop the Big Question

Casale Jewelers offers insurance that replaced lost engagement ring

September 7,2010:  Staten Island,New York:  Staten Islander Roy Mackey is thanking his lucky stars that he purchased  a custom designed diamond engagement ring for his girlfriend Caitlin Griffin at Casale Jewelers after the specialty jewelry store replaced a ring lost in a Disney World lake at no cost to the prospective groom.  

Roy purchased the stunning ring in mid July with plans to propose to Caitlin in Florida at Disney World in late August.  With ring in pocket, Caitlin and Roy were sitting on a bridge at Disney World.  Preparing to pop the question,Roy pulled the ring box out of his pocket and opened it slowly when Caitlin had looked away.  At that point the once in a lifetime moment took a turn for the worst.  The ring dropped out of the box,bounced on to the bridge and landed directly into the lake underneath them. 

Roy became understandably flustered. Caitlin was confused she had never seen the ring,but Roy told her what had happened.  The shaken couple could not get to the lake themselves and quickly contacted the Orlando Police Department who did a search of the lake but came up empty handed.  The next day,the Orlando police had scuba divers search through the lake but still nothing.

Roy called Cory Schifter,owner of Casale Jewelers to share the bad news.  Cory quickly reminded Roy that one of the benefits of purchasing a diamond engagement ring from Casale is the complimentary year of insurance against loss,theft or damage.  Cory shared,“at Casale,an engagement ring purchase is the start of a relationship between us and our customers.  This is an important time for them and we want to give them the added security of insurance before they walk out the door.  I will be honest,this is our first insurance claim and the first time I ever heard a story like this but I felt confident we could make this right.”

Cory worked with Roy to get the police report information and worked with the insurance company to get the claim filed. A little over a week later,Roy received a new diamond engagement ring at no cost.  Cory reports,“When Roy came to the store and told us how Caitlin never got to see the ring,it was sad to hear that she never said yes because the moment was ruined.  He wanted the second ’ask’ to be special so they decided to wait and see what happened with the insurance claim first.  Once the insurance company gave the go ahead,we had the new diamond set in the same engagement ring setting that we originally designed for him.  We were able to have everything for him within just two days.  We were so happy to see him smile when he came in to pick up the ring.” 

Roy proposed Saturday,September 4th and Caitlin finally got to say yes and slip the stunner on her finger. 

If you would like to contact Casale Jewelers for an Engagement Ring or another piece of fine jewelry,please call Cory Schifter at (718) 351-8300 or visit their store location at 1639 Richmond Road.  Casale Jewelers has been in operation since 1986 has been owned by Cory Schifter since August of 2009.  Casale Jewelers is a retail jeweler with a jewelry designer,licensed repairman and diamond setter,gold and diamond buyers,and a full staff of trained professionals with over 15 years of experience on site.  The large showroom,located in Dongan Hills,features over 10,000 items in inventory including gold and diamond earrings,pendants,bracelets,necklaces and bridal gifts.

PicturesOnGold.Com Launches Back-to-School Guardian Angel Jewelry Collection

STATEN ISLAND,NY–(Marketwire –September 2,2010) – As children head back to school this fall,PicturesOnGold.com has added a new Guardian Angel collection to its line of personalized and photo-engraved jewelry.

“As parents send their children back to school,some may feel a little anxiety leaving their children,and the children feel anxiety as well,”said Daniel Schifter,owner of PicturesOnGold.com. “We created the Guardian Angel jewelry line to comfort both parents and children with the reminder of loved ones and the assurance of always being protected.”

The Guardian Angel collection includes pins,bracelets,and necklace pendants engraved with or in the shape of a guardian angel or angel wings. All items may be personalized with an engraved message on the front,reverse side,or both depending on the item. Customers have the choice of solid 14-karat yellow or white gold or sterling silver and may specify the size with pendants as small as one-fourth of an inch by one-half inch and as large as three-fourths of an inch by one inch. Gold and silver chains may be added as well.

Other back-to-school jewelry at PicturesOnGold.com includes a variety of lockets that can hold small paper photos or be engraved with personal photos,words,or initials and necklace pendants and earrings of religious figures,such as Saint Benedict and Saint Catherine. The jewelry company will also laser photos or do engravings on a piece of jewelry already owned by a customer. All jewelry items are 100 percent waterproof.

Customers can complete their orders on the website,where they can specify personalized engraving instructions and upload photos to be engraved on their jewelry. Orders ship within three to four business days,and the company will do same-day or next-day shipping upon request. Customers may also visit the Pictures On Gold retail shop Casale Jewelers located at 1639 Richmond Road,Staten Island,NY 10304.

Customers can view and order items from the Guardian Angel jewelry collection at http://www.picturesongold.com/shop/guardian_angel_jewelry.html.

Pictures On Gold is a personalized jewelry manufacturer and retailer specializing in religious and photo- and message-engraved pendants,lockets,earrings,bracelets,rings,pins,and more. Based out of New York City,the company operates a retail location named Casale Jewelers as well as the website PicturesOnGold.com.

Why Casale and not the Mall or Department Stores?

Here are some key points as to why customers should choose Casale over the Mall or department stores like Macy’s.

Hand Selected – we hand select our jewelry to get you the best quality at the best price. It is not picked for us.

Mall Rent?  A store in the mall pays an average of $30k a month in rent and that doubles around Xmas time.

Macy’s or Chain Stores – All costume jewelry with high markups.  You don’t get what you pay for.

We are the Brand You Want – We have the designer look you want with the quality you desire.

We Care – When you look good,we look good.  We are family owned and all of our customers are treated like friends and family.
