Pearls Pearls Pearls

I love pearls and it just happens to be the Birthstone for June! Is there someone special you know that has a birthday coming up, or how about giving that special  mom that's been there in place of a father a little something for her on fathers day? Here are just a few of my favorites.........



Freshwater Pearls are wire wrapped and weaved with 14k gold filled Vermeil around a 1 1/2 inch 24k Gold Vermeil artisan hoops ear wires. 


Freshwater Pearls are mixed with Gold and Silver Pyrite and wrapped with sterling silver around a 2 inch hoop. These hoops dangle from sterling ear wires.


A freshwater teardrop pearl is wire wrapped with oxidized sterling silver and dangles beneath a cascade of gold and silver faceted pyrite rondells, lavender amethyst and keishi pearls each wrapped with oxidized silver. Length is just over 1 inch from bottom of sterling ear wires 


These gorgeous chunky AA freshwater Baroque pearls are nestled between wire wrapped keishi pearls and dangle from 30x16 mm, 925 Sterling Silver Sleek Elongated Hoops. Total length is 1 3/4 inch top to bottom


These Freshwater Biwa Pearls have a nice sheen to them and are topped with a Sky Blue Topaz. Total length is 1 inch from bottom of sterling ear wires.  




Five stunning white Keishi Petals Cultured Pearls are separated by round turquoise beads and suspended from a flattened sterling silver chain with a lobster claw clasp. 







These oddly shaped chunky Baroque Pearls give unique character to this bracelet. The pearls are separated every so often by a small cluster of genuine Iolite and Peridot faceted brioletts and a cluster of keishi petal pearls topped with light yellow topaz. An off centered mystic blue quartz and swarovski crystal rondell add just a touch of difference. The clasp is a heavy duty magnet with a sterling silver safety chain. bracelet is 7 /12 inch safety chain is 3 inches.
