May Collection 2023

May Collection 2023

- New for May -

It's all about pearl and purple this month.  Amethyst, one of the most popular purple gems, is featured along with some other purple-hued stones like fluorite, Turkish lavender jade, and a few different agate druzies.  Some of the designs also feature blue-green stones like chrysoprase, variscite, and turquoise.  There are even a few rainbow moonstones to round out the mix.

With this month's pearl pieces, I tried to create designs that are modern classics.  I wanted them to be timeless enough to wear again and again while still having a unique modern flair.

There is also a new handmade chain this month.  This chain can be worn on its own or worn with pendants.  Since chain lengths and style choices can be so personal, I am going to start offering some of my pendants without chains so that different chain lengths and styles can be swapped in and out.  I will also be adding to my chain offerings as time goes on, so stay tuned next month for more chain options.
