Sterling silver swirls of interlinking circles do a tantalizing dance. The sophisticated links of this impeccable necklace give it infinite possibilities. Looks amazing against a little black dress or with a crisp white blouse.

Prehnite Faceted Teardrops Bracelet
Clusters of translucent pale greenish-yellow Prehnite teardrops beautifully encircle the wrist. These luminous gemstones feel sensuous and decadent, like an offering of peeled green grapes. A toggle clasp completes the circle.
$275

Dasha Boutique jewelry is often seen in Lucky, InStyle, People, Bridal Guide, Brides, Glamour, and Bazaar among other fashion media. The Bay Area artisans who make up the company's creative team work hard to ensure that the Boutique's handmade jewelry lives up to the Dasha name, which comes from the Greek word for A Gift of the Gods.

Faceted Blue Topaz gemstones dangle seductively from handmade triple-layer metallic links. Links are hammered into slightly irregular circles that complement the gemstone's naturally unique shape, combining into a glamorously organic earring design.

Dasha Boutique artisans employ gemstones of all shapes, sizes and colors, set against sterling or gold chains and backings in order to create feminine, versatile designs that are then tailored to meet the customer's specific desires. It is one of the only online, handmade jewelry vendors that allows for such customization. The Boutique avoids retail markups by shipping all of its orders directly to the customer, usually within 2-3 business days.See full article.
