Petite Pearl Miraculous Medal

This petite 15-16" necklace is made with a 0.5" sterling silver rosary centerpiece, cultured freshwater rice pearls and vintage "Rice Krispie" pearls repurposed from an older necklace. "Rice Krispie" pearls were common in the 1970s and 80s. The set includes a matching 6-7" bracelet. All findings are stainless steel with the exception of the platinum-plated clasps.

White Pearl Miraculous Medal

This was a commission I recently completed using white cultured pearls, stainless steel pins, and a sterling silver Miraculous Medal rosary centerpiece.  The extension chain provides added adjustability.

White Pearl Lorraine Cross

This child-sized necklace is 13.25" long, made with white cultured pearls and stainless steel findings.  The Lorraine cross with thistles, commonly associated with St. Joan of Arc, is a sterling silver replica of an antique piece.  The set includes matching earrings, also stainless steel, and a 5.5" bracelet with a platinum-plated extension chain.

Additional extension chains could be added for adults who appreciate petite jewelry.

White Pearl Fleur-de-lis

AVAILABLE:  $50.00 + $5.00 shipping

If I had my wedding to do over again, this is what I would wear.  A simple and elegant necklace of white cultured pearls built around a sterling silver replica of an antique rosary centerpiece.  The complete set includes a matching 7.5" bracelet and drop earrings.  The pearls are strung on stainless steel wire for extra durability.  The clasps, ear wires and drop pins are platinum-plated.
