Jewelry Junkies Unite: Rarities is Turning Three!
Tune in to HSN on June 14th for my Today’s Special! I’ll be on air from midnight to 2 a.m.; from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.; from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.; and from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m.! I’ll also be on HSN on June 17th from 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. and from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The past three years have been the most rewarding and brilliant years of my career! From diamond tattoos to deco designs; sparkling Hamsas and evil eyes; carved Buddhas and bejeweled skulls; over the top cocktail rings, glistening pendants, wonder woman cuffs, chic earrings, bangles and Swiss-made watches; the road from Harry Winston to HSN has been paved in diamonds.
It is surreal to imagine that Rarities is turning three! To celebrate this bejeweled milestone, I am introducing a new hue of one of my summer favorites. It took almost three years to develop, and on June 14th I will reveal the newest Rarity. My Today’s Special is a meaningful design inspired by my favorite celebratory rose.
I will also launch my anniversary collection which is exceptional, empowering and truly exotic. HSN and I scoured the globe to bring exclusive exotic gems to you at truly exceptional values. Some of these include white and fancy colored diamonds and zircon, London Blue Topaz, the prettiest pink tourmaline, rich red rubies, pure peach morganite, beryl, Crown Spring and Mohave Turquoise, and my first-ever collection of 14k gold Rarities.
As I look back on the past 36 months, it has become apparent that both Rarities and I have evolved. I remember the beginning at HSN. My dream was to educate and empower women with innovative design, rare gems and exceptional quality and craftsmanship. I believe jewelry speaks volumes and knowledge is power! My desire to be your electronic Main Street jeweler has become a reality thanks to HSN, HSN.com, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and my blog. I love being on-air. I picture myself in your living room, hanging out with a glass of bubbly and playing with each new jewel. You have welcomed me in to your lives with such grace and in return you forever have my gratitude.
I realize more and more each day that my Rarities: Fine Jewelry girls are one amazing community of ‘Jewelry Junkies’ and that we all share the desire to own the most unique and rare gems. So, let’s raise a glass to our jewelry community and toast to three years of friendship, empowerment, love and Rarities! Please join the celebration on June 14th and June 17th.
Sending you love, sparkle and light!

Hi Carol,
Will you be bringing back the moonstone cluster and black spinel ring @ $239? Size 5 & 6 sell out so quickly. I almost always miss out. Either size will do. I wear a 5 ring finger or a 6 middle finger. I love this ring and would love to add it to my moonstone and Rarities collection.
Blessings,
M
Yes, PLEASE HSN do that & I would like in a size 8. I look everyday to see if it is back!
Yay! A size 6 came in and I jumped on it! I don’t know if it was a return but no matter. I’m happy. :)
Now I need to ask: will you be bringing back the blue diamond and moonstone ring? I clicked on it as soon as I saw it but size 6 was already gone. I have one finger that I can wear a 7 so if either comes in, I’m golden. Fingers crossed.
So glad you got yours : ) ! I got the size 9 that came in and sized it to a size 8. Its so pretty.
Hi. Carol..
Please make your evil eye braclet in size 8. I love it. It is just a little too snug.
SO EXCITED ABOUT YOUR ANNIVERSARY. I don’t enter here very often, but I just saw the BEAUTIFUL compliment from you. I’m sure I can speak to the majority of all that are your fans, just how special and personal you areas to speak to us throuh social media and your jewelty! HAVE A BEAUTIFUL SELL OUT SHOW! Sending you all my love and happiness!
Affectionately,
glittergrl1980 xoxo-mauh
Carol, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!
I can’t believe it has been 3 years. Each visit I say…’I have enough, I’m not buying another thing’ and then the new items appear and I find one (or two) I have to have. I love your line and enjoy watching you on air. Your jewelry is like nothing I see anywhere else. Keep them coming!!! Thank you for a wonderful three years.
Hi Carol! Happy 3rd anniversary! You are such a gifted woman! Your Jewelry is constantly inspiring me and I have developed quite a collection over the past few years of your pieces. I purchased the Chrome Diopside and Diamond stud earrings to celebrate with you and all the Rarities girls-they are absolutely stunning and I cannot wait to get them. I look forward to watching you everytime you are on Hsn for your styling genius and wonderful stories! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CAROL! XOXO
hi Carol;
can’t wait to see what you’re bringing on june 14th.I love your jewelry and I hope you bring back the black spinnel and cross necklace that you brought last time I really liked it(please).
Thanks!
Hi Gemlover….
When an item sells out, I need to wait for HSN to re-order the piece. It is not up my discretion. Once they place their order, we then need to source the gemstones and manufacture the item. My guess is that this necklace will be back in October or November… it is a personal favorite of mine. Many times HSN gets returns, so please keep checking on the Rarities page on HSN. Thank you soooo much for your friendship and for your passion for fabulous jewelry. xo
I just saw your cigar spinel ring and it looked just like the one Chuch Clemency was selling and ran out of my size! I ordered it and hope that it is the same with the wide sterling band! I haven’t seen it on HSN before. Is this something new? It was on sale that is why I am wondering if it was on before?
Thanks,
Marie
Dear Marie,
Rarities: Fine Jewelry with Carol Brodie 4.32ct Black Spinel Sterling Silver Cigar Band Ring Item: 179-991 is on sale (actually EVENT PRICED) to celebrate my 3rd anniversary on HSN. It is so exciting and the ring is so substantial and super sparkling!!!! I just checked the other designer’s collection and I am very happy to report that his version is lower carat weight (4.18 carats vs mine which is 4.32) and his ring is almost $30.00 more expensive. Thanks for asking… xoxo
I love Carol Brodie jewelry and will purchase, using flexible payments, even though her pricing is uncomfortably high. I notice HSN has removed flexible payments from the latest pieces (for the next show on 6/14/12) and is giving two, repeat only two, flexible payments to HSN credit card holders.[-x Seems no more Carol Brodie for this customer, not for a while, not for the pieces worth having.
Hi and I am so happy that you love my jewelry. I think when you really compare my prices to the high end boutiques, you will find that my values are extraordinary. There is nothing else like Rarities on any selling channel. I go the distance and give you gemstones and designs that you will not find in any other competitive environment – only in European and estate fine jewlery stores. I so appreciate you alerting me to the flex pay… I am going to see what I can do. Stand by please! xoxox
Wow! Carol Brodie speaks and HSN listens! I see that many of your pieces in your new collection are offered on 3 and 4 flex pays. Great! It makes it so much easier to purchase several pieces. Thanx, Carol. You’re the best.
Blessings,
M
Hi Carol,
Looking forward to your June shows. I hear you are branching out to home items and cannot wait for those as well. I’m wondering if you would ever consider a clothing line of caftan tops, I always love the tops you wear for your shows. Also looking for a large single stone iolite ring.
Peace and Joy,
Kristin
Hi Kristin,
Thanks so much!! I am gearing up for my June shows and I have just come back from the Las Vegas jewelry shows where I have scoured big with my global gem suppliers for a 2012 holiday collection. OMG!!! Such amazing newness!!! I am first starting with accessories and home design for October… just wait… and then I would love to do tops and kaftans for next Spring and Summer. Thank you so much for your great suggestions re the iolite ring… I will see what I can do for you. xoxox
Hello my darling “QUEEN OF DIAMONDS”. I can’t believe it’s going to be three years already. You & your jewelry have made me feel very blessed to own so many pieces created by you. Your taste is impeccable in every piece on your “RARIITIES”, page. I can’t think of one time that I was by myself @ 3a.m. busting out laughing about something that you said. So CONGRATULATIONS CAROL BRODIE on making us feel so pretty and special. XOC-MAUH
My darling Glittergirl,
As I have gotten to know you over the past three years, it is I who feels blessed every day that you have entered my life. You are the most sparkling gem of all and I pray every day for your health and wellness. If my Rarities make you sparkle even more and my shows make you laugh, then my world is totally fulfilled. Thank you for your amazing support, love and friendship. You are an inspiration for us all! xoxox

Rarities: Fine Jewelry with Carol Brodie Rainbow Moonstone and White Sapphire Sterling Silver Ring Item: 173-018
Happy Anniversary!!! I need to source the moonstone (this was such an exceptional quality gem) and also see if HSN is going to place a re-order. I will put the request in asap and I would imagine it will be back in late fall… Precious gemstones take time to accumulate. Thank you for taking the time to write. I love hearing from you!! xxxx

Hi Carol,
I’m beyond excited for the birthday shows in June! Your jewelry makes me so happy and I feel so good when I wear it. You inspire me, you have such a light about you. Please don’t ever leave HSN and keep the beautiful pieces coming. I know your working on some things I’ve requested so I’ll keep looking forward to them. Thank you for all that you do and for your beautiful stories! xoxo Melissa
Hi Melissa,
Thanks so much for always being such a wonderful supporter, girlfriend, advocate and brand ambassador. The fact that my jewelry makes you happy is the greatest complement that I could ever get. I just returned from the Vegas jewelry shows… just wait… OMG! See you on June 14th.
Love to you,
Carol
Hi Carol,
I missed the opportunity to purchase your Citrine “Nova” star earrings the last time you were on air. Can you please bring them back? My 16 year old daughter passed away and now her spirit is part of the cosmos. The earrings remind me of her, but they sold out when I tried to order them.
Thanks!
