In November, Rose of Sharon Jewelry introduced our 1st cross necklaces for men. These masculine necklaces are wonderful expressions of faith. Each one-of-a-kind cross necklace fits most men comfortably.

But ladies the good news:  Our men’s cross necklace are suitable for us, too! If you like the bolder cross and want a bit longer necklace, you’ll appreciate these new Christian necklaces, too. And one design was made with matching earrings for you!

Why not buy one for him and yourself? Haven’t men for years been giving us gives they really want? I remember a little red silk teddy. . .

11th	Victory – Vermeil (gold over silver) cross necklace with turquoise colored Howlite bead
12th	Witness – Antique silver cross necklace (this has earrings so he can get the necklace and you get the earrings)
13th	God’s Guidance – Turquoise and coral necklace with gold cross
14th	His Mercy – White Turquoise Cross necklace
15th	Fellowship – Black onyx and silver cross necklace

 

Reason #3 – Why invest in handmade jewelry? Your money goes to support a small business person working hard to create and promote a creation made from the heart. Unless department store jewelry, you are building a relationship with an artist and helping them continue to share their gift with others.

 

Each of these beautiful one-of-a-kind necklaces were created by Betty (my Mom) and are available in the Rose of Sharon Jewelry online store.

Vermeil is 14 or 24K gold over sterling silver.

The handcrafted Southwestern influenced Victory cross necklace  features a dramatic gold vermeil (24k gold over silver)

cross hanging from faux turquoise (dyed Howlite) tube beads. Victory measures a generous 20 inches.

The serenity of the translucent green Jade was the inspiration for the new Everlasting Peace  necklace. The cross of silver and green is a simple elegant design. Betty then transformed faceted Jade rondelle beads with a yard of sterling silver wire to create a light and airy strand.

Everlasting Peace is available now in the Rose of Sharon Jewelry store.

 

The Jade in this original work is top quality. Great luminosity!

Mom and I have been spending our time creating dozens of wonderful new necklaces, charm bracelets and Christian jewelry to add to all three Rose of Sharon Jewelry venues.

Since December is a big bridal month, we’ve create several stunning wedding necklaces – all one of a kind. We’re knee deep in Swarovski crystals and pearls. I’m enjoying adding some color to our handmade wedding jewelry as the look has become so much bolder. Mom has a magnificent pair of long, long, long freshwater pearl earrings. These would be great with a strapless gown and upsweep hairdo. I fashioned some little girl’s Christian cross necklaces in delicate faux pearls and sparkling crosses with crystal CZ accents. Adorable and a wonderful gift! Don’t forget all our products are shipped in our eco-friendly signature purple gift boxes.   Here’s one of my favorite cross necklaces – Abiding Faith. Green and gold combos are a wonderful choice for year round enjoyment.

Here is a lovely Violetta by Sandra Lee. It will be in the store next week.If you cannot wait, drop me a line to reserve.

Betty's newest handmade cross necklace is the delicate silver filigree "Glory to God". The ornate 2-inch silver cross has Swarovski crystals in colors representing the precious gems of peridot, ruby, amethyst, sapphire and citrine. Instead of competing with these colors - Betty selected firepolish three-tone beads - clear, fuschia and blue. The necklace strand is hand linked chain using brilliant sterling silver wire and jump rings.
