I love jewelry. That might be surprising to some, because I honestly don’t wear much. I am pretty picky though, so it’s not often I find things I really love enough to wear on a regular basis. I recently was lucky enough to review a necklace from The Vintage Pearl though, and I fell in love!

About The Vintage Pearl:

The Vintage Pearl creates unique and hand stamped jewelry and keepsakes. They do not use machines and every single piece is one of a kind. The company was begun by a mom of 4 named Erin Edwards. She started a small jewelry business back in 2007, just as a way to keep busy and as a creative outlet. Over time the company has grown to where it is today, there is even a brick and mortar storefront now!

Erin’s company is a Christian company that gives back to many worthy causes. Here are a few of the causes they have been able to help out over the past few years:

Stop Child Trafficking Now

Tulsa Dream Center

Orphan Shield

The Mercy House

Inspire International Ministries

and many others.

My Thoughts:

From the very first interaction with The Vintage Pearl, I knew this company would get a good review from me! Personable, efficient and lovely are the three words that come to mind when I think of The Vintage Pearl.

I ordered a simple Dainty Drops necklace with my children’s names and birthstones. I have been wanting a “mom” type piece of jewelry for awhile now, so I was so excited when the package arrived in the mail! First off, the packaging was gorgeous. The necklace came in a sweet little jewelry box wrapped with a bow. Attached to the bow was a small silver charm and pearl. Such a sweet touch!

When I opened the box, I gasped! The necklace was even prettier closer up. Unfortunately, I should have measured my neck beforehand, because the chain I received (which was exactly what I ordered, so totally MY fault!) was way too long. Still, I wore the necklace to church that very next day and received so many compliments!

 

I love that the necklace is lightweight and I love that it’s totally unique.

I would definitely purchase from The Vintage Pearl. Their prices are incredibly reasonable for hand crafted jewelry and I find myself wanting to send more business their way so they can continue to grow and donate to their worthy causes.
