Japanese Keshi Pearls
Keshi pearls are a rare form of freshwater pearl. These pearls are only harvested every three years and are difficult to find in a high quality shape and luster. Anna uses these pearls in her designs because of their beautiful and uniquely organic shape.

Semiprecious Stones
All semiprecious stones used in Anna's designs are of natural origin (no dyed or heat treated stones), and are chosen for consistency in color and quality of cut.

Oxidized Sterling Silver
Much of Anna's work features oxidized sterling silver. You will find this silver becomes more lustrous over time, and with wear it may begin to brighten on exposed surfaces and remain dark in recessions. Oxidized silver cannot be cleaned with chemicals; if necessary, use an old toothbrush, dish soap and warm water.

Sizing
Every item description states the length of the item. You may special order necklaces and bracelets in different lengths than stated. Note that original lengths are designed for average to petite women.

Necklaces are available from 14" to 25". Bracelets are available in 1/2" increments from 5" to 10"; it's important to have a good fit so the bracelet will not fall off. Chain will be added or taken away to alter the length; no stones will be added or removed.
