Music Friday: Today, we pay tribute to Dolly Parton through her 1984 country hit “Tennessee Homesick Blues,” a homespun song with a sparkling final line: “It’s hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world.” Parton, who passed away this week, wrote the song for "Rhinestone," the musical comedy in which she co-starred with Sylvester Stallone. The song captures Parton’s character yearning to escape the pressures and artificiality of big-city life and return to her Tennessee mountain roots.

For music legend Dolly Parton, jewelry was never simply about sparkle. Although the country icon became synonymous with rhinestones and faux gems, she also had a lifelong affection for butterfly jewelry, a motif inspired by her 1974 hit “Love Is Like a Butterfly.” Parton, who died August 25 at age 80 following a brief battle with cancer, incorporated the winged creature into her style, personal collections and even a 2024 jewelry collaboration with a famous designer. It was a fitting symbol for a woman whose life transformed humble beginnings into extraordinary success. See our blog for the full story... https://jewelryjudge.thejewelerblog.com/

And within the spinel family, the vivid neon-pink gems from Tanzania’s Mahenge region are in a class of their own. Discovered in 2007, Mahenge spinel is prized for its intensely saturated color, exceptional clarity and an almost magical quality that makes the finest stones seem to glow from within.
