- New for July -
Stones with teal and turquoise hues along with pearls are the main focus of July's new collection. You'll find lots of pendants and necklaces this month. Some of the stones are really spectacular, so I tried to keep the designs simple so that each stone would be the star of the show. There are a few labradorites that have beautiful flashes of color along with some truly unique turquoise cabochons.
Along with the new one-of-a-kind pieces, there are several new made-to-order designs. You'll find a new domed circle set that is modern, simple, and great for everyday wear. There is also a matching pearl set as well as turquoise earrings, vintage glass earrings, and a new pearl teardrop necklace.
