Silver Earrings

Posted on by

Our Simon Sebbag Silver Jewelry story continues…  

Large, sculptural pieces of silver jewelry are very appealing, but are normally heavy and uncomfortable to wear.  Ann’s Simon Sebbag is different:  made of wax models dipped in sterling silver, these are all incredibly lightweight and easy to wear.  (Who likes heavy earrings?)  Modern and elegant, they look great with the Simon Sebbag necklaces on leather that we posted yesterday (here).  Or wear them alone for a casual look  with a white shirt or tee.  No matter how you like to wear them, you’ll want to buy them when you see the great shapes from Simon Sebbag at Ann’s. 

 

Silver Jewelry in Summer Color

Posted on by

We posted previously about our new Simon Sebbag silver jewelry (click here).  Today we want to show you an easy way to customize your summer jewelry look.   

Simon Sebbag leather necklaces come in vibrant colors and have the silver clasp attached.  Each is $75.50.  Choose any Simon Sebbag bead in silver and add it to your leather necklace.  Beads are $91.50 each and are sized to fit over the clasps.   Simon Sebbag silver pieces are hollow and very lightweight, so are a joy to wear.  We have earrings and bracelets to complete your look (more about that in another post) in elegant, affordable and comfortable silver jewelry.

When you put one together, it looks like this:  (choose from lots of leather necklace colors)

Here are some of the Simon Sebbag Silver beads you can choose for your necklaces:

Choose your color, choose your bead, enjoy your necklace!  We have a few other ways you can fit striking silver pieces (such as Simon Sebbag brooches) on your leather necklace, so stay tuned.  Or come on over to Ann’s!

Beautiful Bracelets

Rich color and high shine make these bracelets a favorite at Ann’s!  Resin bangles with sterling silver and 14K gold are perfect for layering.  They are hinged and highly laquered to add shine and wear well.  Ann wears hers with her Pandora bracelet.  Bracelets in wide or narrow cuffs are a favorite that our men love to buy for special gifts, so if you haven’t found your wife a present for Mother’s Day, this would be a home run!

Cute Clocks

Posted on by

In this day of electronic everything, it’s nice to have a few simple clocks around the house.  These fit well into bookshelves, on desks, or your bed-side table.  All are battery operated.  Interesting frames and pretty colors are a nice accent to your home decor, and they make excellent gifts.

Small clocks with ornamental frames add accent to your home decor.

 

 

Fabulous Majorica Pearl Necklaces

Posted on by

A long strand of pearls is so easy to wear.  Traditionally, women saved their pearls for dress up, but today you can wear them with practically anything.  Mix them with your other necklaces, too.  (Coco Chanel popularized this look in the 1920′s, mixing costume jewelry with good man-made pearls.)   Majorica pearls provide so many new ways to enjoy pearls, so pick out a strand for Mom for Mother’s Day!   We’ve posted lots of pearl necklaces on our blog, see the archive here, but below are some long strands to consider:

Pearl Earrings from Majorica

Posted on by

Yesterday we talked about bracelets; today let’s see some earrings!  Majorica pearl earrings are very reasonably priced and come in shapes and colors to match or coordinate with your other pearl jewelry.  Any of these would make a lovely Mother’s Day present (and with any jewelry purchase in May, you get a box of Ann’s chocolate Texas truffles FREE).  We have LOTS of different Majorica pearl earrings; here is a sampling:

 

 

Reverse Painted Trays

Posted on by

We love trays:  they make great gifts, look good in your home, and are practical.  Ann’s collection of reverse-painted trays includes a range of sizes, designs, and shapes.  There are coasters and boxes to coordinate, even large butler’s trays with their own stands to make coffee tables.   Reverse-painted means the design is painted on the underside of the glass, adding depth to the design, protecting it from drinks and food, and making it easy to wipe clean.  Our collection changes all the time; here are some in store now at Ann’s:
