About Genevieve Jewellery

This website has been launched in response to the numerous pleas of 'Where can I see more of your jewellery?'. As you browse through my designs you'll see I have a particular passion for Crystals, Pearls, and Mother of Pearl. But semi-precious stones, Fine Silver, Lampwork and beads of all kinds attract me like a magnet!

Some of my jewellery includes beautiful lampwork beads handmade by Jan Jennings (of Crystal Garden), the wonderful colours, textures and fine details are irresistble to the jeweller and anyone who likes beautiful beads. Her beads are truly wearable works of art!

I make all my earrings with wires for pierced ears, but if you prefer clip or screw-post fittings I can change them for you. I usually have silver-plated non-pierced fittings in stock (no extra charge), or I can order Sterling Silver for an additional £8 per pair. There will be a few days delay in despatching your order if you require sterling silver. Simply email me specifying your requiments when you place your order.

Take a stroll through my Shop and if something takes your fancy, just click on the 'Buy Now' button.

I shall be adding new pieces regularly, but if you wish to see more of my work a further selection of my jewellery is available from my sister store at MISI (Make It Sell It), a varied and rapidly growing community of talented craftspeople selling fully handmade products through 5000+ online stores.

Genevieve Jewellery can also be purchased at The Emerald Grove, 39 Church Street, Malvern, Worcestershire, an 'Aladdin's Cave' of quality handmade crafts by British artisans. If you are in the area do be sure to visit, you'll find it hard to leave empty-handed!

Past Creations can also be viewed, and if you would like to have something similar made, please email me to discuss your requirements.

When purchasing jewellery that includes semi-precious stones or pearls, please be aware that there may sometimes be small flaws or inclusions in the stones, and Freshwater pearls are not perfectly round like manmade pearls, these are not faults, just part of their personality and attraction and proof that they are natural.

Details of Delivery, Shipping and Returns may be found on the Shipping page.

A word about Silver and Nickel content
I use only 'nickel free' metals. All earwires are Sterling Silver (92.5%) unless otherwise stated. At this point I must mention that even sterling silver contains a very tiny amount of nickel, but this is so small that it is usually tolerated by allergy sufferers.

Some of my jewellery is made with Fine Silver which has a higher silver content than sterling (99.9% and no nickel), and is as close to pure silver as you can get.

All Silver will discolour in time. This is a natural process (commonly called tarnishing) - a reaction caused by exposure to air, light and the oils and acids of human skin. Fine Silver doesn't tarnish as quickly as sterling silver, and all Silver jewellery will benefit from a rub over with a soft jewellers polishing cloth occasionally to restore its sparkle.

Thank You for visiting, if you'd like to leave a comment about my jewellery or the site, please leave a message in the Guestbook. If you have any questions, or wish to discuss a commission, please don't hesitate to contact me.
