Thanksgiving is right around the corner and here at Shavonne we have the perfect ring to go along with the colors of the season. Style # 6X149ZDH is a very simple and beautiful ring. It is a simple rhodium band with a square smoky topaz cubic zirconia stone. This ring is one of my favorites at Shavonne. It is very unique in its style, because we do not offer many rings in this particular color. Check it out for yourself and hopefully it will brighten your holidays as well!

The rich, warm, earthtones of SMOKY TOPAZ have been enjoyed for several thousand years. Historically important for its natural beauty. You will immediately notice the 6.0 carat stone is presented with the original “Emerald Cut” to preserve the natural beauty forever. Overall ring weight is 3.1 grams.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone is looking forward to a very special Thanksgiving!

It is always a blessing to have family and friends around to celebrate all that we are thankful for. With Christmas fast approaching it is time to really think about what you are going to get that special someone on your list.

What??? You don’t have any ideas!!

We could recommend a great piece of fashion jewelry for your wife, girlfriend, or that special family member that you want to show how much you care for them.

At Shavonne we take your gift giving needs very serious. We understand how important it is to give just the right gift to the right person that says you are special to me. Are you are looking for something for your wife? A great anniversary band such as style number 05812 is just the right thing to say “I appreciate you and I am glad you are my wife”. Shavonne also carries an assortment of engagement and wedding rings. My personal favorite is style number 22323 which has a beautiful princess cut stone with just the right size band that is perfect as an engagement ring. Don’t forget that every ring we sell comes with an unconditional lifetime warranty. You will receive a warranty with your purchase so that should anything happen to your gift, it can be replaced with a new ring of the same or similar style just for the price of shipping.

So come on people!! It is time to start shopping and there is no greater place to shop for a gift for your special girl than at Shavonne!!

Intro and a Little History

Alright, today is going to be a little different than our usual posts in that I’m going to explain our new affiliate program. As all of our old affiliates were informed previously that our new shopping cart, which has been in use on our site for somewhere between 8 months and a year now, could not support our old affiliate program so a new affiliate system was in the works that would hopefully be better than the old.

Well the good news is that a month ago, it was launched. I’m a little late on the blog announcement for it but I was hoping to fix any issues that may have come up before going through an explanation of the system. As of this point, we have had no complaints so I hope thats a good sign. But thats enough history, lets get to the important stuff.

What is an affiliate program?
Well, its when someone signs up on a website (like Shavonne) and gets some link code to put on their site. When someone clicks that link and comes to the website and orders, the affiliate gets a percentage.

A Detailed Look

That’s a little simplified but it gives those who were wondering an idea. Now, Shavonne offers our affiliates 15% commission on all sales that we receive from an affiliate’s site. With our new program, when someone clicks on a link from an affiliate’s site to ours, we can see if that potential customer buys anything within the next 30 days. If they do then the amount will show up in the affiliate’s monitoring page with the amount that Shavonne will pay to them.

Shavonne will only pay out once a month for affiliates choosing to be paid by PayPal and once a quarter for affiliates choosing to be paid by check. Also checks will only be written when $50 or more is pending payment to that affiliate. That does not mean that $50 has to be earned in one quarter, all pending payments will roll-over to until they are paid.

Already an affiliate with our new program?
In that case, Shavonne would like to thank you for participating and we hope it will be mutually beneficial for us. If you log into your affiliate account (right here) then the first page you will see is your pending amounts. These are broken down per order we have received from customers coming from your site and they will be paid out according to our payout schedule mentioned above. The next option in the menu is the Previous Payments which will show what amounts have been sent to you already! Then we have Edit Account so that you can update your information to keep it up-to-date. Next is the Get Link Code which is a very important section as it is the page that can generate those links that you need to place on your site for Shavonne to be able to tell where the customers are coming from! Last, of course, is the logout which will simply log you out of your affiliate section (which is always a good thing to remember to do if you are using a public computer).

To the End

Well, that was a lot and glad to say that should cover it. If there is any questions then feel free to email or comment and I’ll get those answered as soon as I can. And until the next long update post, have a Happy Holidays!

Just a few words to all our wholesale and retail customers. We had a great response to some of our new items. The comments given to us are greatly appreciated. Hope to have more in the future.

With the holidays coming we have added some new Christmas watches. You can find them on our Christmas Watch page. I also wanted to take this time to wish those who would be traveling for the Thanksgiving Holidays to have a safe trip. And for everyone else a Happy Thanksgiving.

We are trying to get all orders wholesale and retail shipped out as quickly as possible. Many are for up-coming events and we understand the need to have all orders shipped out as quickly as possible. So another Thank you all for being so understanding. We have many new clients who are just ordering from us for the first time and their response to receiving their fashion jewelry has been Great. We are thankful for all our clients. Remember to have a look at our Christmas watches. Also be watching for more new items. And check the site for any ring we have been out of stock on as we have added new stock this week.

So to everyone have a happy holiday and be safe.

Recently we have had a few calls about the care of the fashion rings.  We use a simple process here in the office.  We just dip the rings in cleaning solution and then in warm sudsy water.  Then we rinse in clear water, blot dry and then use a blow dryer to make sure the stones are dry inside and out.

NEVER EVER USE AMMONIA to clean your rings in.  Bleach is another harmful chemical to the rings.  Some soaps and hand lotions will make the stones look dull.

Although this is fashion jewelry it does need to be cleaned.  We have received some returns back that all it needed was to be cleaned.  Sometimes just to clean the band all you would need is a polishing cloth.  These cloths are good to wipe lotions and grease from the bands.  So you might want to try one of these even on the bands of your fine jewelry.  They also work great on watch bands.

Just remember if you take care of your rings they will last a very long time.  Again if you have any questions feel free to email or call.
