Semi-Precious Gemstone Necklaces 

Beaded Artisan Jewelry In Lovely Genuine Gemstones

Beaded Gemstone Necklaces are as beautiful and unique as each gemstone bead in a strand. You can purchase a whole strand of any type of Jasper and no two beads will be exactly alike. They may be perfectly matched in size, shape, and general color, but the matrix or markings within the stone itself will vary a little from where they were cut from the rough rock. This is what makes gemstone jewelry so striking and unique.

KC Bead Designs featured gemstone necklaces:

Bridal Prom Formal Wear Jewelry

Bridal parties, prom and school dances, special occasions and formal events deserve beaded artisan designer jewelry. Necklaces, earrings, bracelets and accessories created with Swarovski Crystals, pearls and other fine beads to make you shine on your special day.

Swarovski crystals come in so many colors and shapes I can usually match or accent the dresses for your bridal party, prom gown, or dress to create one-of-a-kind jewelry designs just for you.

I can create matching color/different style accessories for each member of your bridal party. The handcrafted jewelry sets make nice gifts for your attendants and the idea that it was handcrafted especially for each person makes the gift very special.
