Such a special addition to your jewellery collection. I love it when you get items that are beautiful and eminently wearable. So perfect for you and I love those clasps.
I am sure your Mum looked great in pearls, such a classic beauty.

Very pretty and I love the look of the clasps. Enjoy!

Beautiful and I love the clasps. Bracelets can be a pain to get on so easier clasps would be great.

Beautiful! They work perfectly with your ring (which I also love - the design is simple yet unique).

Oh, thank you sooo much, ladies. Your kind and gracious comments make a difference. I appreciate the time you took to write them.

Karen13, the trick is finding dainty bracelets that are the right size. You can't even feel them on when they fit perfectly. I'd love to see your Mum's pearl necklace, and am glad you're wearing it.

Isabelle, so far, my pearl ring works well with my gloves. They are roomy because I have narrow and long fingers, which I think helps keep the ring in place.

Sterling, I chose the pearls too. 100% custom-made.

Sisi, I'm touched that you remember Jasmine & Rosie. Thanks for mentioning them.

Bijou, YES. Mum loved pearls too.

Love! Is the the Birdie Shinola Watch? I really like that, too! I've been coveting a Shinola (I am from Detroit!) but have been looking at a bigger watch. Your dainty femme watch makes me rethink that! and the pearls are just sublime. I am getting my first custom designed piece for Christmas! My birthstone is garnet, and I am getting an emerald cut, simple pronged ring, have not decided on gold or white gold but am meeting with the jeweler later this week.

That is LOVELY and you wear pearls so beautifully.

How did you find the right jeweler to work with? Did specifically seek out someone who worked with pearls?

Lovely bracelets,I m sure that you will get a lot of wear out of them and what a beautiful picture of your mother,you can see where you get your looks from,enjoy wearing them.

Beautiful! And Sam is as adorable as ever.

Very pretty Angie, and I'm intrigued by the clasps. I have a pearl ring that's fairly large too, and all I do when wearing gloves is turn it in towards my palm- doesn't bulge or get caught on anything that way...

Oh my goodness! So fab!!

I will be interested to hear a report back about how the pearls hold up on your wrist. I'd be a teeny bit worried about scuffing them up...

Lisa p, do you recognize the clasp being the jewelry aficionado that you are?

Mary, I wear my pearl ring daily, and get on with life - no scuffs. Real pearls are surprisingly durable, actually. Like diamonds. Plus, I do have my super power that kicks in when I need it....

You are making me think... I have a couple of pearl necklaces that I no longer wear because the pearls are small and I feel like an 18-inch strand of small pearls on a Woman of a Certain Age is a bit jeune fille. But a bracelet... now that is an idea!!

Lovely and Sam too.

The bracelets are gorgeous! Also, I love that your face is reflected in the photo of your beautiful mom!

Not a jewelry person but I must say they are beautiful, simple and elegant. I have never heard of that type of clasp. So brilliant. I do like pearls though and plan on purchasing something special in the Philippines in March ;-). Now you have me brainstorming.....Love the ring too.

Beautiful Angie, just so special and so you. I’m delighted for you.

I don't recognize it, and what I like about it is how it modernizes the pearls. I have an ambivalent relationship with pearl jewellery - sometimes I like it and other times I don't. I rarely wear mine, even though I have some modern pieces - but when I do wear it, I like it!

Your new bracelets are elegant and beautiful! They really do look perfect on you and with your ring. Custom pieces are special because they are created by, or for you and decisions about size, quality and details are under your control. Enjoy wearing this extra dose of fabness every day. It looks like your late mum and Sam approve.

So pretty. The clasps add a little something.
You mum looks like Charlize Theron! What a beautiful woman!

Lovely! The bracelets look spectacular, especially with your gorgeous ring.

Beautiful bracelets! They suit you. And I am always happy to see Sam!

Angie wearing bracelets! Happy dance!

The clasps are so gorgeous, it's as if they're part of the design.

They're so pretty! I've had a few pieces custom made in the past, and you're right--they were special, even if they weren't "fine" jewelry pieces. I don't live near the shop responsible for my custom made pieces anymore

Awesome that your beautiful mom is part of the photo shoot <3

Those are truly fantastic bracelets, and I am fascinated about the clasp--beautiful and functional. I also enjoyed the great shot of your mother. It's a mesmerizing portrait: a calm expression, but filled with vivacity. Happy early present!

To me, stories about jewelry are what make it beautiful because it becomes personal. Thank you for sharing your pearl jewelry journey, Angie. The lovely pieces suit you to a tee.

So elegant! I love the way they add a ladylike compliment to the burnished, strong look of the watch. Having just the right size and scale really matters in a bracelet -- so glad you had them made!

Thank you all very much for the kind compliments. You are LOVELY.

I'm piling both bracelets on at the moment. Feeling Maximal.

Wonderful.

GORGEOUS!!!!! I'd be curious to know how the clasp works, too.
