The Collection
Timeless Pieces for Race Day & Beyond
Inspired by the pageantry of Churchill Downs — the spires, the silks, the roses — the Run for the Roses Collection brings together six pieces that capture race day's quiet glamour.
From a glittering 18K diamond fashion ring to a matched mother-of-pearl earring and pendant set, every piece is hand-selected by our team for its craftsmanship and wearability long after the bugle sounds the call to post.
Featured Pieces
Six Pieces, Six Race Day Stories
Winner's Circle
18K Yellow Gold Diamond Fashion Ring
An openwork 18 karat yellow gold fashion ring set with 101 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling .44 carats. The intricate filigree silhouette catches light from every angle — equal parts heirloom and statement.
Worn alone or stacked beside a wedding band, it carries the kind of presence that earns a second look long after the trophy is hoisted.
A 26-inch diamond necklace in 18 karat two-tone gold from Simon G. — substantial enough to make an entrance and refined enough to layer with a spring linen or a navy blazer all the same. The longer length lays beautifully over both V-necks and high collars.
A flexible 18 karat two-tone bangle by Simon G. — slim profile, easy on-and-off, finished with the small details Simon G. is known for. Slides over the wrist without a clasp and stacks effortlessly with a watch or a second bangle.
An 18 karat two-tone bangle set with .10 carats of G-color, VS-clarity diamonds. The clean line and high-grade stones give this Simon G. piece a quiet, almost architectural presence — the kind of bracelet you put on for a Tuesday and don't take off until Sunday.
Kite-shaped earrings in 14 karat yellow gold from Doves, set with luminous white mother of pearl and accent diamonds. Geometric, modern, and unexpectedly versatile — they pair seamlessly with the matching pendant below.
The pendant counterpart to the Doves earrings above — same kite silhouette in 14 karat yellow gold with white mother of pearl and a diamond accent. Together they nod to the iconic twin spires of Churchill Downs.
Wear them as a complete set on race day, or layer the pendant alone over a simple chain for everyday.

Styling Notes
Dressing the Part
Hat First, Jewelry Second
Big brims call for restraint at the ears — opt for studs or small drops so the silhouette of the hat stays clean. Save the statement piece for your wrist or finger.
One Hero Piece
The cocktail ring or tennis bracelet is your hero. Let it lead. Keep complementary pieces understated so the eye lands where you want it.
Pearls Pair with Anything
A single strand reads classic with a pastel sundress and modern with a tailored blazer. The most flexible piece in the collection — and the most often borrowed.

Race Day Questions
Can I come see the collection in person?
Absolutely — and we hope you do. The full Run for the Roses Collection is on display at our shop on the square in downtown Noblesville. Walk in any time during regular hours, or call us at 317-773-3383 to set aside a particular piece or schedule a quiet viewing after hours.
Are the Doves earrings and pendant sold as a set?
They're sold individually, but together they're hard to beat. The earrings and pendant share the same kite silhouette in 14 karat yellow gold with white mother of pearl and accent diamonds — designed to be worn as a matched set or layered piece-by-piece into your everyday rotation. Many of our clients take both and let them earn their keep at the next dozen occasions after Derby Day.
Can the Simon G. bracelets be sized for my wrist?
Yes. Both Simon G. bangles can be sized to fit, and the flex bangle accommodates a range of wrist sizes naturally. Bring your wrist in and we'll measure it properly — sizing typically takes one to two weeks through Simon G., though stock pieces are sometimes ready in days.
Can I take a piece home today?
For most pieces in the collection — yes. We stock everything you see on this page in our showroom, and we're happy to send you home with a piece the same day, sized and ready for race day. Pieces that need resizing or special-order variations may take a week or two.
How do I care for mother of pearl?
Mother of pearl is softer than diamond and a bit more delicate than your everyday gold — treat it gently. Wipe it down with a soft cloth after wearing, keep it away from perfume, lotion, and chlorine, and bring it in to us periodically for a professional inspection and clean. We never use harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners on pearl pieces.
Do you offer financing?
Yes — we work with several financing partners to make the larger pieces in the collection more flexible, including six- and twelve-month options for qualified buyers. Stop in or give us a call and we'll walk through what makes sense for the piece you have your eye on.
