I'll start off by saying that I am obsessed with jewelry. I have a huge collection that only ever seems to grow, especially my ring collection. Needless to say, since I began working for Beth Millner Jewelry I have found many pieces that I admire, and made a point to save up and purchase the ones I love. I'm excited to take you through my favorites.
This was the first piece that I purchased after getting hired. I've lived in the Upper Peninsula for almost two years now and I fell in love with Marquette as soon as I arrived. I was drawn to this pendant because it is made with UP copper and it felt like a way to carry a little bit of this place with me wherever I go.
The second pieces I purchased were two Winter Lentil Tree Rings. I was in a new relationship and had to spend some unexpected time back in my hometown. I got these as a way for us to feel close while we had to be apart. We both still wear them every single day! I love how comfortable the double banded design is, and the flat surface means it never catches on anything.
An agate came into the shop that we affectionately called our "Dr. Seuss Agate" because it was a bright peachy color with white polka dots. I fell in love with it before it was even set in a piece. When Beth turned it into a pendant, I thought about buying it every time I came into work. One day, it disappeared, and I was kicking myself for letting it go. On Christmas, I found out that my girlfriend had purchased it for me. It's an awesome piece, and taught me a valuable lesson about getting the pieces I love before someone else does! Because this piece is one of a kind, you can't find it on our website, but you can check out our other Lake Superior Agate Drop Pendants here.
Gold Enchanted Rustic Diamond Twig Ring
My most recent purchase is actually a custom ring. It's a bit more expensive than anything else that I've gotten from the shop but is the most meaningful. My mom passed away in October of last year and left me several pieces of jewelry. One of them was her original engagement setting. The ring was broken after being sawed away from the band and the diamond had been taken out, but the side stones were all intact. The design was so similar to our Enchanted Rose Rustic Diamond Twig Ring, and I asked Beth if she would be able to set the small sapphire into the design. It was an emotional day at the shop when it was finished - I love how it turned out and wear it every day.
The final piece in this post is the next one on my wishlist. I haven't purchased the fox ring yet, but I'm waiting for just the right opportunity. I think it could be a great graduation gift for myself when I finish grad school next year. With my other pieces, I've had specific, symbolic reasons for choosing each design. With this one, I just think it's really cute! I think that's just as good of a reason to get a new ring as any.
The silver leaf earrings I recently received are lovely!
Love drawings of birds, these are very nice and indicative of Beth’s range in artistry.
Love my paw ring! Sunny’s name engraved on the backside means so much to me. Thank you…. Excellent craftsmanship!!
I wanted a paw print pendant to honor my beloved Sunny who just passed away and to support UPAWS. The UPAWS pendant is perfect! I love incorporating the outdoors with the paw print. Perfect for my Sunny who loved exploring everyday .
This pendant surpassed my expectations. Nina did an outstanding job creating and crafting this beautiful piece. The mushrooms, snail, star moss and gorgeous turquoise make this pendant incredible. I absolutely love it.
I love my mushroom earrings! They are the birthday gift that I wear almost everyday.
I love, love, love my wedding ring. They also resized it for free even though I needed to send it in slightly after the 30 day window. Their customer service was also great and communicative. Wonderful experience.
Honestly it's like Nina looked into my soul for this one. The bracelet is beautiful, adaptable to different sized wrists, and subtle. The detail in each charm is excellent, and they're small enough you can wear it year-round without someone telling you what month it is like you can't love Halloween outside of October.
Perfect for the minimalist. Smells great. Takes a minute to break in. Fits in small pockets with my small phone, too. Made wonderfully.
My wife picked out the ring while on vacation in Marquette area. Had it “put aside” while she thought about how bad she wanted it. Gonna surprise her on Sweetest Day—
Every thing is great so far-I’ll let you know the outcome...
