Growing up in Central America, Errol Daly learned early that nothing is given. Everything is earned,
he insists. This is a core value that followed Errol to America and into his career. Decades from his days playing
soccer and tip and go in his native Belize, Errol is now the master jewelry polisher and finisher at Zacharys, and
owner Steve Samaras best friend and right arm.

Errols journey to Zacharys is largely due to his wife,
Gwenda, who enlisted in the Navy and was eventually stationed at
the Washington Navy Yard. After stumbling into the jewelry industry
on the recommendation of a cousin, Errol answered a life-changing
newspaper ad that brought him to Annapolis 34 years ago.
To understand Errols expertise, youve got to understand the
intricacies of jewelry polishing and finishing. Polishers use an array
of machines, tools, and buffing wheels to remove uneven surfaces
and contour the cast metal. Only a skilled polisher is truly able to
unlock the vibrant beauty of a piece of fine jewelry. No single stage
in manufacturing jewelry makes as big of an impact as polishing and
finishing, Steve says. Im a shiner. Errol is the polisher.
Starting with 16 showcases, 14 of which were empty, Errol and Steves beginnings were humble, to say the least. Through their
continued success, it is evident that while nothing has been given, everything has been earned. Errol and his family recently spent his
birthday on the beaches of Bermuda at Steves vacation home. To be able to share my home with my family and closest friend is so
important to me and my wife, Challie, Steve explains. To which Errol adds, And he has always treated me like a brother.
No single stage in manufacturing

jewelry makes as big of an impact as
polishing and finishing, Steve says. Im
a shiner. Errol is the polisher.

worked in 18kt gold, and studded with diamonds and sapphires. The ring can be matched with
yellow gold flower earrings that carry a tiny drop skull and lily symbol. The back of the larger ring
also shows Guccis iconic Horsebit clasp motif.

style, together with a graceful pendant necklace and serpentine ring, all in pink with white gold.

An international star founded in Rio de Janeiro, in 1945,

H.Stern has become one of the most prestigious jewelry
houses in the world for its tradition of quality, unique designs
and unmatched creativity.
H.Stern returns to its origins and revives the star,

creating a memorable collection that graphical-
ly represents fascinating celestial phenomena.
A journey through time led the design team to
uncover the age-old seduction with the won-
ders of the sky - a history of over 30,000 years
shrouded in mystery, curiosity and incredible
discoveries.
The H.Stern designers immersed themselves

first in graphic representations of the skies and
then transformed them into jewels of gold and
diamonds.
Stars, constellations, comets and eclipses are

represented in jewelry combining the eternal
charm of Victorian style, which was the starting
point of the first Stars collection, with the con-
temporary approach of H.Stern design.
Created by the hands of skilled craftsmen, pre-

cious details on both the inner and outer sur-
faces of the pieces highlight the exquisite work-
manship. This impressive collection showcases
the unmistakable character of balancing bold
designs with traditional jewelry expertise, a sig-

Roberto Coin
After over 20 years abroad, Roberto Coin returned
to his roots in Italy, and it was not long before his wise eye
appreciated the uniqueness of the home he left when he was
very young. This uniqueness, expressed by the architectural
virtuosity, the passion for creative design and the artisans
care for manufacture, made Italy the point of reference for
quality and beauty in the world.
During a visit in Vicenza, renowned as the city of
gold, for the first time Roberto Coin got involved in the
jewelry industry and recognized the magnetic allure and
elegance a jewel can represent. This moment marked in the
story the very beginning of his new adventure in creativity
and his entrance in the world of jewelry.
The success was immediate and the brand soon
distributed in over 60 countries, where even today people
consider his jewels as unedited and symbolic new codes of
elegance. His aim is to add uniqueness to every woman and
avoid a homogeneous style by creating over 600 new models
every year, like dedicating a different jewel to each womans
individuality.
Positivity, love and enthusiasm are the values upon which Roberto Coin
has built both his personal and professional life. These are also concepts that
are intimately bound to the symbolism of the ruby, the stone of passion par
excellence. In fact, it was considered by ancient Egyptians to be a kind of amulet
that in contact with the skin bestows prosperity, happiness and longevity.
These characteristics make the crimson stone a truly exclusive signature for
Roberto Coin. Since 1996 the jeweler has loved setting a small ruby on the inside
of each of his pieces, thus allowing direct contact with the skin and conferring
the stones beneficial properties on the women who wear his creations.
In spring of 2016, the iconic Italian jewelry designer debuted several new
collections four of which resonate greatly with Zacharys jewelers. According
to Coin, As always, we will surprise our customers. We [have launched] over
450 new models this year.

Originally known as Russian gold due to its high esteem
in Russia at the beginning of the nineteenth century, rose gold
has grown in popularity over the last decade. Unlike traditional

romantic and contemporary. Rose gold does not occur naturally.
It is created by mixing gold with a small percentage of silver and
copper. For instance, 18k rose gold is 75% gold, 21% copper
and 4% silver. Despite being a soft, dreamy shade, rose gold is
incredibly robust and stronger than white or yellow gold, making
it ideal for wedding jewelry or a special occasion piece.
Pink diamonds and gemstones are the epitome of allure.
Pink diamonds are one of the rarest and most valuable gemstones

in the world. Stunning pink diamond or gemstone pieces portray an air of luxury
and finesse due to their exclusivity. Natural pink diamonds are found in small
quantities and are highly sought after. Like other natural colored diamonds, pink
diamonds are formed due to trace elements that occur during the crystallization
process.
The exceptional beauty of pink gemstones and rose gold allows for the
formation of truly breath-taking jewelry that embraces glamor and sophistication.
From elaborate, bold accessories to slightly more subtle pieces, pink diamond and
rose gold elements will add opulence to your jewelry collection.

Making a Statement in
Vintage-Inspired Jewelry
from Simon G.
No fashion collection is complete without some stunning, time-tested vintage jewelry.
Think elegant, ornate, and architectural, with a touch of sassy, grand, and sumptuous.
To satisfy your yearnings for artistic, age-old baubles are three beautiful vintage-inspired
jewelry items from Simon G. Jewelry.

ART DECO
This three-tone gold ring features round-cut white diamonds and an eye-
catching yellow oval-cut diamond. Make an exquisite presentation with the
whole set and adorn yourself with complementary yellow diamond earrings, a
pendant necklace, or a white gold bracelet.
PENDANT EARRINGS
The versatile pendant earring is a jewelry home run. Both a timeless
testament to vintage fashion and a style that pairs with most modern
outfits, the right pendant earrings can make your pantsuit pop and your
evening gown glow.
These octagon-shaped pendant earrings feature a floral constellation of
white diamonds and pink diamond accents in a geometric design, for a
blend of romantic appeal and regal vintage splendor.
VINTAGE LACE
Lace details are infinitely charming and feminine, so why not emulate that
type of romantic detailing with vintage filigree and milgrain jewelry.
This lacy white gold vintage design is set with .36 carats of white diamonds.
And since doubling or tripling up on your rings is all the rage right now, try
pairing this vintage lace ring other vintage style bands in yellow, white or
rose gold.
When it comes to making beautiful jewelry, no detail is

too small to be ignored. Simon G.

ZACHA R Y S A N N U A L
Mother's Day
D ESI G N CO N T EST

Five years ago, Zacharys started a tradition that celebrates
some very special people in our community: Mothers.
Every spring, hundreds of local area 5th graders from 20
elementary schools design pieces of jewelry inspired by their
moms. After the winning designs are selected, three pieces
are brought to life by our jewelers and are presented to the
winners to give to their moms as a one-of-a-kind Mother's
Day gift.
Before you really notice it, your children will be grown

and what precious reminders of their childhood these
pieces will be for their moms, said Daphne Foreman of
Zacharys.
Since it began, the contest continues to draw attention,

and was even featured on CNN/Headline News.
Steve Samaras, owner of Zacharys, said Its so much fun to

see the energy and thought the kids put into their designs.
Steve also added This is a great event which we invite not
only the students and their families but also encourage local
business owners to participate in.
Most recently, Kristin Falk of Benfield Elementary designed

a gold beaded necklace with a natural crystal pendant for her
mother, Kathy Falk; Lillian Evans of Pasadena Elementary
designed a pendent with precious and semiprecious stones
for her mom, Rebecca Evans; and Clark Ridenhour
incorporated Morse code into his piece to express his love
for his mom, Susan Ridenhour.
A sweet after effect of the contest, Steve says, is that,

many times, moms continue to come in throughout the year
and ask us to custom make their childrens designs.

ZA CH A R Y S:
What It's All About
Its easy to make assumptions about Steve Samaras. As the owner of a successful jewelry store in the heart of downtown Annapolis, you
might assume his drive is measured in dollars. But Steve doesnt live an extravagant life. At least not in the way youd expect.
To Steve, more important than personal gain is knowing that the people around him are taken care of. So what has made Steve show
up seven days a week for the past 34 years? A means of providing for my community, my customers, my team and my family.
To understand Steve, youve got to start at the beginning, where youll find a strong family upbringing. He credits his parents small
business success with a combination of his mothers social responsibility and his fathers strong work ethic, which also personally define Steve
and his business model at Zacharys.
And business and family continue to coexist for the Samaras family today. In the front of the house, youll find Evangeline, Steves
youngest sister and sounding board. Shes my voice of logic. Shes reasonable and socially conscious, which she gets from my mother. In
Severna Park, youll find his other sister, Daphne. Shes incredibly organized and has my fathers strong work ethic.
In the back of the house, youll find Challie, the love of Steves life. Shes the warmest, most genuine person Ive ever known.
Ironically, Challies jewelry collection only consisted of a pair of earrings and a Pulsar watch when they met. Shes no fuss, no muss. And Im a
lucky man to have her.
Its clear that this family business knows what its really all about. And in fact, Steves life is actually quite extravagant But in the
very best of ways. Just ask the people who know him.

newspaper ad that brought him to Annapolis 34 years ago.

To understand Errols expertise, youve got to understand the

intricacies of jewelry polishing and finishing. Polishers use an array

of machines, tools, and buffing wheels to remove uneven surfaces

unlock the vibrant beauty of a piece of fine jewelry. No single stage

in manufacturing jewelry makes as big of an impact as polishing and

finishing, Steve says. Im a shiner. Errol is the polisher.
