Rose of Sharon Jewelry

Pearls are a traditional  June birthstone. Rose of Sharon Jewelry artists love to work with natural freshwater and faux pearls.

Pearls aren’t just for formal occasions. South Pacific is a colorful bold blend of funky freshwater pearls in deep sea colors. This double-strand necklace is a real favorite of mine and really reflects my love of BOLD! The matching bracelet can be worn together or separately. The stick pearls are so much fun in the bracelet.

Besides pearls, I used Mother-of-Pearl which is harvested from the inside of the shell which creates a natural pearl.

 

 

 

 

Faux pearls are made of glass. The ladies of Rose of Sharon Jewelry use crystal-centered Swarovski faux pearls, vintage faux pearls and Czech glass faux pearls known for their great colors.

 

Softly Spring uses Czech glass faux pearls in a lovely soft plum color to accent the floral enameled pendant. Created by Betty, this set includes lovely glass pearl earrings to match.

 

 

Classic doesn’t mean boring – this lovely single strand of Swarovski pearls and Swarovski lead crystals is a real stunner. The  luscious cream color of the pearls is highlighted with the light peach of the crystals. Ella is  perfect gift choice that will become a family heirloom. 

 

 

With  beautiful rich blue crystals in this ornate Christian cross, the simple white faux pearls are a perfect contract. Heavenly Blue is part of Betty’s series of religious jewelry found only in the Rose of Sharon Jewelry store.

 

 

 

Sandra Lee has mixed beautiful pearls with colorful jade beads in Shall We Dance. This is an elegant design with Sandra Lee’s  signature touch.

The deep rich fuchsia pearls are interwoven with the pale pink Jade rounds.

The centerpiece is a fine silver (.999) flower handcrafted from artisans in Thailand.

Rich emerald green is May’s birthstone but most of us don’t have the bucks for a quality stone. At Rose of Sharon Jewelry, we hand make beautiful and affordable emerald green jewelry alternatives.

Emerald Isle is a magnificent deep emerald green color.

The pendant is a CZ set in sterling silver which Sandra Lee combined with deep green faceted Czech glass beads and sparkling Swarovski crystal spacers.

This  one-of-a-kind necklace measures 17 1/2 inches which is a perfect length for a cocktail dress with scoop or V neck. 

I love the clasp she chose as it is as classy as the rest of the necklace

The matching earrings measure 1 1/4 inches.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Abiding Faith, one of Betty’s cross necklaces, has been featured here before.

The cross has emerald colored Swarovski crystals which she matched with larger bicone Swarovski beads.

 

 

 

 

Betty’s Gloriosa necklace (cross shown at left) is another lovely design were the color emerald is featured.

This cross necklace is an illusion style with a scattering of emerald green crystals. Gloriosa is a 2-piece set with a matching pair of earrings.

 

 

 

 

 

Emeralds aren’t always deep green (those are the priciest) so this soft green necklace might be more to your liking.

The handmade Wisdom cross necklace has a softer more translucent emerald green color in the cross and in the faceted bead strand.

 

 

 

 

I created this bracelet watch from some beautiful emerald colored glass beads. They are double drilled and strung with silver beads. You’ll find Hour Glass in our Etsy store where the A.F.F. Jewelry collection is featured.
