G Squared Presents Holiday Adornments 2011


G Squared is very excited about the upcoming show "Holiday Adornments 2011". We will be presenting new work by five Pennsylvania jewelers - all known for their exquisite and sophisticated designs. Beginning on November 18, the show will run through the holidays so be sure to stop in, if you have a chance, before Christmas and pick out a piece that is perfect for you or the special person in your life.
The jewelers are Abra Gorby from Washington Crossing, PA. Abra designs her own fabulous beads and her pieces are sought after by discriminating woman around the country; Bessie Jamieson, Carlisle, PA. Bessie's work is wrought from fine gold and sterling silver and is reminiscent of medieval grainwork; Lisa McChesney, Rector, PA. Lisa's work is created from sophisticated beads purchased from around the world. Her designs are worn by many collectors and are perfect for business or evening attire; Olga Mihaylova hails from Pittsburgh and her work is wrought from her own designs using many techniques she has developed herself. Olga teaches beading in Pittsburgh and will be in our gallery from 1:00 P.M. until 4:00 P.M. demonstrating her prodigious talents. Finally, Rachel Walton is also from Pittsburgh and will be presenting her crocheted glass bead work in new and unusual designs.

Be sure to stop in and check out all this fabulous work. If you can't make it in, be sure to hop over to the G Squared website and see the work there.

The New Uber Cool Corkcicle at G Squared


G Squared has found the Corkcicle to be one of the coolest inventions to come along in some time. With the required "field testing", we have found that the temperature of white wine has remained at a perfect coolness while the bottle sits on the bar.

What looks like an arctic front freezing its way through the center of your bottle is actually the innovative Corkcicle. This icicle is made of BPA-free plastic filled with a reusable freeze gel, so you don't have to worry about an early thaw diluting your wine. Simply place your Corkcicle in the freezer for at least two hours, and then insert it into any bottle of wine (after 1 glass has been poured) to maintain chilled white wine or to bring up red wines to their perfect temperature. The Corkcicle enhances the subtleties of the red and white wine's complex flavors.

The Corkcicle makes a fabulous gift for all those hard-to-buy-for men type gifts. Also makes a great and affordable hostess gift for all those holiday parties!
