Ultra Diamonds and the Starlight Children’s Foundation team up for their ninth annual Holiday Gala and Charity Event
By Becky Lerner
The room literally shimmered on Thursday, December 9 as VIP customers, charity-goers, models, and PR mogul Kelly Cutrone floated from case to case ogling not only the Ultra Diamond selection, but the collection by designer Peter Lam.
Blue cases offset Lam’s collection of dazzling, intricately crafted jewelry. Models donned in matching blue dresses showcased some of Lam’s one-of-a-kind pieces. Lam recently returned from some travels abroad around the Middle East, Europe, and Japan from where he drew his inspiration. He noted that he was inspired by the art, culture, and people…especially beautiful women.
Jewelry Designer, Peter Lam, explains one of his pieces to a customer.
With 25 years of jewelry design to boast, and 15 years working with Ultra Diamonds, Lam’s jewelry definitely makes a statement. Intricate artistry combined with clean lines make Lam’s pieces fitting for any consumer. Avant-garde pieces such as a silver cuff bracelet intermixed with pieces wearable on a daily basis such as a basic white gold ring with white diamonds. In addition, he showcased pieces a little off-center, or a little rock ‘n roll, such as a black and white-pavé-diamond butterfly ring or a black diamond pavé chain necklace. While some pieces price appropriately above $150,000, other pieces like Lam’s Rope Twist Earrings cost only $499. And what made it even more worth it: a portion of the proceeds from this event went to the Starlight Children’s Foundation.

The Starlight Children’s Foundation is an income-blind, non-profit organization that supports children with serious illnesses and their families throughout treatment and beyond to minimize fear and isolation. They aid children from birth to 18-years-old and offer services such as family activities and outings, in-hospital entertainment, online communities, and educational programming. The Starlight Children’s Foundation worked with Ultra Diamonds to create a signature “Mii Beads Box Set,” pronounced ME. The box contains two Swarovski crystal beads, one precious sterling silver bead with a 14k gold-layered star charm, and one purple cat’s eye bead. This box set, originally priced at $299, is temporarily discounted to $89. $25 of each purchase goes to the Starlight Children’s Foundation. The box set can be found at ultradiamonds.com under “Collections.”

Daniel Marks, CEO of Ultra Diamonds, stated that he thoroughly enjoyed this event and looks forward to it every year. The combination of giving back to a worthy cause as well as interacting with his clients falls in line with his motto to “offer great, quality jewelry at fantastic prices.” Because, he stated, “everyone deserves to have quality jewelry.”

Tough minded optimists approach problems with a can-do philosophy and emerge stronger from tragedies. Do you agree?

But anger is a healthy response to overhelping at the cost of your own dreams, so give your frustration a voice!

I really, really enjoyed this. The humor works brilliantly, and the animation is much better than I had imagined. The way you have “blended” (hehe) it all together makes this look like a solid, whole product, as good as any Pixar short. Probably better. But then again: That’s my opinion.
