Swear Rings in Russia, Earrings on Perez

April 19, 2010 by WendyB

Gorgeous blogger Julia, the Thanksgiving Girl, has achieved two Wendy Brandes Jewelry firsts. She’s my first customer in Russia AND she’s the first to get the gold-plated version of my swear rings.

Julia rocks it in Russia.

Julia's sweatshirt-wearing dog likes the rings too.

Gold-plated means that these are the normal silver swear rings with a thin layer of yellow gold on top.A  The plated rings are $500 and I do them by special request only, so holla at me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com if you’re interested. Of course, I’d also be very, very happy to do a swear-ring order in solid gold. If you’re that kind of big spender, I’d forgo my normal adjustable bands and fit each ring to your finger personally.

If you want the swear rings in their original sterling silver, you can buy them from the blog. The companion ring, an asterisk, is available on the blog too. Need inspiration for how to wear them? Check out all the swear-ring wearing peeps on my Facebook fan page.

Meanwhile, my Cleopatra earrings are still being recognized for their cameo in Sex and the City 2. I was amazed when I saw Perez Hilton had them on his fashion blog, Coco Perez, today. Take a look.

    The swear rings look so luxe (in a badass, rock star) way. I could see them on Lenny Kravitz. Yep, Lenny Kravitz wearing just the gold plated swear rings would be a great advertisement.

    They look fabulous in gold! It’s funny, I’ve gotten so used to seeing my silver set, but seeing them in gold makes me feel as if I’m seeing the swear rings for the first time again. 🙂

    fab! and congrats on the coco perez feature! It’s no surprise that you are getting so much press, the earrings are so gorgeous and there’s nothing else out there like it!

    don’t you mean its “vermeil” instead of gold plated? Vermeil is gold over sterling silver. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermeil

    • WendyB says

      March 1, 2012 at 5:51 am

      The layer of gold used in proper vermail is generally thicker than that used in standard gold plating. Plus I think a lot of customers would need a definition of vermail, so I would most likely end up saying the pieces were gold-plated sterling silver anyway, just to be clear.
