Waking up to a new piece of jewelry every day would be a dream for most collectors. Now, thanks to the 2016 daily calendar Jewelry, it’s a reality. Workman Publishing’s gallery-worthy offering boasts full-color photographs of both antique and contemporary necklaces, rings, brooches, bracelets, and earrings, along with a succinct description of each stunning design. While the cover features a specially commissioned shot of rings from Fred Leighton, baubles by Oscar Heyman, Cartier, Chaumet, Van Cleef & Arpels, and more also make the calendar captivate.

Hailing from the 1960s, Oscar Heyman’s sapphire and diamond ring still takes the breath away in the modern day.
