All jewelry has been purchased through reputable wholesalers in New York City, who guaranteed the authenticity of their products. Most silver jewelry is stamped .925 Sterling, some jewelry with semi precious gems and stones were purchased, per manufacturer/wholesaler, from Tucson, Arizona, w/silver work completed in Indonesia and Thailand. Necklaces are either from Italy, Bali or Thailand, some items are from Mexico. Gems and stones include: turquoise, malachite, onyx, touramaline, peridot, citrine, moonstones, coral, topaz, amethyst, Polish Baltic amber, fluorite, pearls, carnelian, garnet, jade, and jasper. The ethnic tribal jewelry is authentic Lapis Lazuli, metal is "gillit" a composition of brass, nickel, melted down coins, and some silver, and is made by Kuchi Waziri tribes of Afghanistan now residing in Pakistan. Some pieces are used for bellydancing and some are suitable for day or evening wear. Many chokers are stunning with contemporary or bohemian style clothing. I have always enjoyed different cultures, and hope you, too, will become fascinated with ethnic tribal jewelry. Indian and Turkish jewelry will also be included in the future. Let me know if you are searching for a specific item of ethnic jewelry. ~ ~NEWS~ ~~~~~ Look here for dates and locations, where I will be selling directly at Ct. festivals. ~THANKS FOR VISITING MY WEBSITE~ CLICK BELOW TO RETURN TO MY HOMEPAGE: http://www.marilynsimports.com |
