Tanzanite, Peridot & Pearl Silver Bali Bracelet

Exclusive Handcrafted Gemset Sterling Silver Beaded & Wire Jewellery

Rare & Genuine Tanzanite - Always a Great Gift Idea

You are looking at one handcrafted bracelet featuring lovely genuine “lilac/blue” Tanzanite chips, lovely “grassy green” Peridot chips, gorgeous creamy-white Freshwater pearls & Balinese silver daisy beads. Beads, twisted tubes & clasp are all Sterling silver (using an extremely strong nylon-coated Steel thread). Approx. length is 7 1/2" with an extender link taking this up to 7 3/4" which also features a nice Tanzanite nugget bead. This is a lovely delicate-looking bracelet – an unusual combination which works well. Well made it would make an ideal gift or a treat for yourself.

Tanzanite is a beautiful stone which comes from Tanzania and is usually in shades varying from silvery-grey/blue to light-deep blue/purple. Please note: Tanzania has halted export of rough Tanzanite since July 2003 so these gem chips are going to become even rarer than they are now.

PennyM Designs - I design and make all PennyM Designs jewellery myself, in my small studio in Kent, so exclusive handcrafted pieces are always available. I’ve been designing and making jewellery for over 25 years, having started designing at a young age, partly because my parents were antique dealers so I got to "play" with a lot of lovely Victorian/Edwardian crystal/amber/jet/pearl beads and was inspired by all the beautiful pieces I came across at Antique/Fine Art fairs. Add that to the fact that I've always been a collector of gemstone rocks/minerals (I still can't walk by a lovely specimen without stopping to admire it) so I knew about all the gorgeous semi-precious gems just waiting to be sourced and made into something unique – put the two passions together and you get a jewellery designer !!

I work exclusively with precious metals and genuine gemstones (precious and semi-precious) and genuine pearls. I source my stones and findings from around the world, using respected and ethical suppliers and also, wherever possible, direct from small companies who actually make their silver or mine/cut their gemstones themselves, for example, my Balinese silver beads actually do come from Bali. I exhibit at UK Craft fairs and Galleries and have been selling direct on eBay since 2000 (please checkout my great feedback profile). Each piece is made with care and an attention to detail you’ll find very hard to beat and I’m always very happy to accept commissions for one-off pieces for that special person/occasion.
