My Jewelry Essentials

This post is in partnership with Haverhill Collection

When I’m looking for something unique, beautifully made, and personally sourced for those hard to please friends and family something handcrafted always feels right.  This year, shopping small is more important than ever, and I'm looking forward to highlighting some of my favorite small businesses (many based in New England!) over the coming month. 

When it comes to jewelry my personal style is still somewhat minimalistic, feminine, and dainty. I've always gravitated to timeless pieces that can be worn with a t-shirt or cocktail dress, workout gear or cashmere sweaters. Enter Haverhill, I love the versatility and durability of her delicate designs. The owner, Haverhill Leach, comes from 5 generations of jewelers and fashions her handmade gems in her home state of Rhode Island. (Though her first name actually comes from Haverhill, NH - a town her ancestors helped found over two and a half centuries ago!)

Each piece is handmade of 14k or 18k gold (or sterling silver) and semi-precious stones (I chose white quartz and blue topaz) and is truly something you can wear everyday. After more than a year of constant enjoyment of my lang studs and birthstone necklaces each piece still looks brand new without tarnish or patina despite wearing them in the shower, pool, ocean and while working out - which makes them ideal adornments whatever your plans may hold.

As someone who wears yellow gold a lot, but has a platinum engagement ring, I LOVE her Hudson bracelet, which is made of sterling silver links accented by three 18k gold links which make it perfect for the woman who likes to mix and match her metals.  Wearing this bracelet with gold and silver instantly ties a look together and can be worn with anything. 

With Christmas around the corner, I can see her customizable birthstone necklaces or bracelets as a beautiful gift for a mom or grandmother done up with sentimental stones representing loved ones. Simple and elegant in a design every woman will love, each necklace can be set with up to 8 different stones and each bracelet can be set with 7.

Even though every piece is made custom, most orders ship within 5 days and Haverhill has shared a special discount for my readers. Use code "FriendsofStacie" to receive 15% off your order (including personalized items!), and I bet they'll be one of the few gifts your loved one never takes off.
