Living in the same neighborhood in New Berlin, WI, we became friends who became hooked on purchasing components and creating handcrafted jewelry. Karen and Christina started to create their own jewelry as a hobby. Word went around, and before we knew it, we were creating one-of-a-kind pieces for our families, friends and neighbors. Tenly & Deb became 2 of our best customers, helping us get started on our first home jewelry shows.
While enjoying creating and selling our unique designs, Tenly was diagnosed with breast cancer. Karen, Christina, and Deb wanted to support Tenly and began to design breast cancer awareness jewelry. As Tenly recovered, she joined in on the designing. We are very proud to say that our breast cancer jewelry is crafted by a survivor of 4+ years. We have designed jewelry pieces for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation-Milwaukee Affiliate and for Gilda's Club of Southeastern Wisconsin.
We weren't complete until our friend Deb became interested in designing jewelry. Deb brings a whole new depth and quality to our creations. She compliments Karen with her hand-sewn elegant bracelets, both designers' unique pieces are gorgeous!
So, Jewelescape was born! Jewelescape's contemporary collection features one-of-a-kind sterling silver pieces, blended with our designer's harvest of natural stones, Swarovski™ crystals, and crystal pearls, freshwater pearls, or lampworked art glass. Exclusive hand-sewn designs rich in texture and color round out our collection.
We look forward to designing that special bracelet for you or as a gift for that someone special in your life.
Retail prices range from $25 (earrings) -- $150 (necklaces and some hand-sewn and sterling silver bracelets).
