Pearl Ropes
The sea is a huge source of inspiration for many jewellers and we are no exception. How many blue hues does an ocean hold? How many strange, wonderful and beautiful creatures live there? This is the inspiration for our long pearl ropes. These amazing two metre long necklaces are just crammed with freshwater pearls, mother of pearl chips and an eclectic mix of glass beads. At two metres in length, wear it single (to drape to your knees!), as a double strand or even a triple strand. Or wear it round and round your wrist to make a huge bracelet. The picture to your left shows our “Romance” pink jewellery, pearl rope.
All of the Mother of Pearl Chip beads featured on these beautiful necklaces have been dyed, this is not their natural colour. The wonderful white freshwater pearls, however are entirely natural colours.
The pink jewellery pearl rope we call Romance, it has the beautiful soft pink hues that are tipped to be the colours for Spring 2010. The painterly watercolour tones are just perfect for softening modern shapes. Be Pretty in Pink this Spring.
Team our Romance Pink Pearl Necklace with simple stud earrings in the same tones – let the necklace be your statement piece or go wild with chained drops holding the same colour base. It’s all about feeling good.
On the same theme, the second colour in this series of contemporary pearl jewellery, is “Contemplation”, a multi-hued mix of turquoise and blue. Clever ways with colour mean that this large necklace can be worn with all sorts of outfits – costume fashion jewellery comes of age.
To dress up a pair of jeans, wear a simple white t-shirt and let the jewellery do the talking. Add a pair of OTT earrings and you have an outfit the paparazzi will want to collect on camera.
Pearls of course are also renewable – did you know that a freshwater pearl oyster can be used up to seven times before exhausting itself and then the shell is used to create other works of art like the dyed shell beads used in this necklace, carved cameos (like those featured on this site and on www.rayclif.com ) and sometimes blister pearls which are like pearls growing right into the shell itself.
Readers of FashionCostumeJewellery.com will receive a free pair of freshwater pearl earrings with every pearl rope purchased by quoting FCJrope at checkout in your comments. Even if you forget – rayclif.com won’t!
Colour and Fashion Costume Jewellery – Think Pink Earrings
Pantone have released their new 2010 Spring Fashion Colour Report - these reports are great. Check out their ideas of the colours for Spring. Fashion Costume jewellery of course must follow the trends of the Fashion Industry and this seasons colours are super. As Adam Lippes is quoted in this report : “I think customers want special and unique now more than ever. And they want to see good value”. So lets have a look at one of the Spring Colours as recommended in the Pantone report and see what we can find in our earring collection.
Champagne Pink is the colour I have chosen for this article. The old adage of Thinking Pink still applies today – it can be girly and it can also be sophisticated and everything in between.
First cab off the rank are the earrings – no self respecting person is dressed without earrings! The first pair on the left are so pretty without being kitch. The cloissonne beads add interest and movement while the Swarovski crystal inset in the gold fitting adds brilliance and defines the whole piece. This is a limited release earring at only $12.50 – what did Adam Lippes say about value! Aquire your earrings here.
For those who prefer a silver setting, what about our second pair?
Lovely delicate pink beads adorn the chandelier fitting (again complete with the Swarovski crystal centre). a very different look for day or evening. Purchase your pair here.
The first two earrings are beautiful and sensual, with elegance and taste written all over them – ideal for day or evening wear.
For something quite different, this time in Bronze accents, large but still with the feel of the Champagne Pink, what about these chandelier earrings? I love them, the Boho feel is amazing and they are different and trendy.
They measure 6cm from the top of the hook to the bottom of the base bead so are certainly an example of large jewellery, but they do not look clunky when worn. More details can be found here.
Each of the earrings we have featured here are very different and very Pink! Which pair do you prefer?
