    As the adage goes, diamonds are a girl's best friend. As far as Valentine's Day gifts go, flowers wilt and chocolate inevitably goes from lips to hips pretty quickly. And a diamond (or diamonds as the case may be!) doesn't have to been a huge investment, or a lifetime commitment. For men shopping for your wife, girlfriend, sweetheart, secret office crush...there's something for everybody out there, and if you're the slightest bit unsure, Dior's ''Oui' diamond ring makes the perfect statement. For girls, we all know it doesn't hurt to steer those men in the right direction, or we can shop for our friends, mothers, sisters, and of course, ourselves. From simple earrings to ornate necklaces all the way to engagement rings, with diamonds in every size and shape, a little bit of sparkle might just be the perfect gift.

    Think that only independent jewelry designers use gemstone beads in their collections? Think again! Even the major jewelry design houses like Tiffany & Co., Bvlgari, and Cartier work gemstone beads into their jewelry designs. Gemstone beads are usually either faceted or smooth, come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, and can vary greatly in quality. Beads can be drilled all the way through the center, across a corner or point, or even half drilled. Drilling gemstones allows them to be incorporated into jewelry designs with minimal requirements for mounting and setting, allowing the beauty of the gems to be appreciated from every angle. Does drilling a gemstone detract from the beauty of the stone or of the overall piece? Judge for yourself from these images of ten of my favorite high-end designer jewelry pieces that feature gemstone beads.
