Top 5 Etsy Shops for Jewelry

When it comes to beautiful, handmade goods, Etsy.com is the place to be. I was first introduced to Etsy by a woman who was a jewelry artist that sold items on the website. I am so glad that she did. I have purchased many gorgeous pieces of jewelry from Etsy, and for the purpose of this article, I will provide my top five Etsy shops for jewelry as well as information on each one of them.

1. Wynn Studios- By far, this shop is my favorite. Whitney, the owner, is a lovely person with which to deal, and she offers some of the most beautiful jewelry pieces. She describes her designs as "fun and affordable," and she does not sell any items that she would not wear herself.

Styles Offered

A wide range of styles are provided in this shop. Some designs are cool and casual while others are elaborate and elegant - a little something to fit just about everyone's taste. Whitney, the owner, uses a variety of semi-precious stones, various colors of swarovski crystals, rhinestones, pearls, and metallic shapes as well as gold and silver to complete her works of art.

Availability

All of the pieces offered are available at the time of purchase. The only exception is if you request a custom order, and then, the owner has to have time to make the design requested.

Ordering Information

You can pay for your beautiful treasure by Paypal, or if you do not have a Paypal account, Whitney will allow you to use a major credit card. The item is shipped first class USPS 1-4 business days after payment for the jewelry piece is received. Your beloved selection will arrive gift-wrapped in a jewelry box and tied up with a lovely bow, so if you plan to give the item as a gift, it is ready to be given.

Price Ranges

At the present time, the owner is running a buy one, get one half price sale. Even without this sale, the prices for these handmade works of jewelry are more than reasonable. Earrings range from $12.50 to $24.50 and necklaces from $16.50 to $36.50. Your choice of the necklace and earring combinations is $28.50, and there is one bracelet available for $16.50.

Size Ranges

The necklaces range in size from 16"-30". The bracelet is 7.5", and the earrings come in lengths of 1" to 2".

Product Recommendation

I have ordered a number of beautiful pieces from this artist, but my favorite would have to be the Victoria earrings.

I own a pair of these glamorous earrings and have even given a pair as well as a matching necklace as gifts. These lovelies are simply stunning and could be worn with casual, dressy, or formal attire.

2. Hannah's Hands- This shop is owned by a stay-at-home mom who describes beading as her passion. She named her online store after her precious little daughter whose image appears on the shop's banner. She is a proud member of the Etsy Moms Team as well as the Cafémom Team.

Styles Offered

This gifted shop owner offers an assortment of crystal, gemstone, and silver jewelry and even has a few pieces that include sea glass, abalone shell, and even chain mail. She also does custom bridal party jewelry, support bracelets for a variety of causes, and mother/grandmother bracelets. In regard to the earrings that she makes, she gives the option of choosing nickel free surgical steel wires or clip-ons in place of the offered metal. To search for one of the wonderful items on this website, you simply have to choose the color that you want, and all of her items that coincide with that color can be accessed.

Availability

Most items are available at the time of purchase. However, rings and support bracelets are made to fit, and the mother/grandmother bracelets are made and personalized to suit your family. Custom orders are prepared after purchase.

Ordering Information

This seller accepts Paypal and money orders. If you pay by money order, the item is shipped once the money order clears her bank. If you pay by Paypal, standard orders are shipped first class via USPS 1-3 business days after purchase, and custom orders are sent by the same method 3-10 business days after payment is received.

Price Ranges

This owner's prices are very reasonable for the gorgeous jewelry that she produces. Earrings range from $4 to $25, necklaces from $8 to$75, bracelets from $8 to $42, watches from $35 to $40, and rings from $12 to $15. The support bracelets are each $25 with 10% of the purchase being donated to the charity which it represents.

Size Ranges

As mentioned before, the rings and support bracelets are made to fit. The earrings measure between 3/4" and 1 1/2" in length. The necklaces run from 17" to 19". The bracelets range from 7" to 7 1/2" and the watches are 7 1/2" but can be made to fit you.

Product Recommendation

I highly recommend purchasing one of the support bracelets. She has a bracelet to represent each of the following causes: ovarian/uterine cancer, lymphoma, breast cancer, and brain tumors, and as previously mentioned, 10% of the purchase of each bracelet is donated to the charity for which the bracelet stands.

3. Beach Glass Memories - I am a huge beach enthusiast, and I simply adore sea glass jewelry. This fantastic jewelry shop specializes in sea glass jewelry and has many beautiful pieces from which to choose. The owner states on the introduction section of the store that she is helping to finance her daughter's wedding through her jewelry business, so when you purchase an item from here, you not only get to enjoy a gorgeous work of art, but you also get to have the satisfaction of knowing that you played a role in helping to make her daughter's wedding day a special time.

Styles Offered

All of the jewelry that is offered in this shop is handcrafted by the owner and is composed of sea glass that the owner and her family collected from the shores of Lake Erie. Each piece of sea glass is unique as is each of the jewelry items that are sold. A wide variety of colors of sea glass are utilized, and the owner also has a few pieces that feature mermaid tears. All of these beautiful works of jewelry art are appealing to the eye, and you will be proud to be wearing the item that you purchase.

Availability

Because of the nature and uniqueness of sea glass, each design offered is one of a kind. If you see an item that you like, order it right away, because once it is purchased by someone else, there is no chance of an exact replica.

Ordering Information

This seller ships the same day that the order is placed (in some rare occasions, the day after) unless it is a custom order. Only Paypal is accepted for payment, but all items are 100% guaranteed. Gift wrapping is free.

Price Ranges

Size Ranges

For most of the pendants, the chains offered to accompany them are 18" and made of sterling silver. The bracelets range from 7 1/2" to 8". The single ring that is for sale can be sized from size 4 to size 6.

Product Recommendation

I would suggest and plan to purchase one of the Mermaid's Tear Filigree Silver Lockets filled with sea glass. These lockets and the sea glass contained within them are gorgeous and simply gleam in the sunlight. They are reasonably priced at a mere $25.

4. Crystal Ring Babe Sparkly Things - This jewelry shop and its charming selections conjure up visions of jewelry that was worn in the movie "Titanic." The classy character and timeless beauty of the pieces that are presented bring to mind the elegance that would have existed during the early 1900's.

Styles Offered

The owner of this shop specializes in vintage Swarovski crystal rings and also offers a small selection of vintage necklaces and earrings as well. The three styles of rings that are featured are the princess in either gold or silver, the blossom, and the eternity band. You can choose from a multitude of colors for the princess design.

Ordering Information

The princess rings are priced at $28 while the blossom ones are $30. An eternity band can be yours for $32. The necklaces range in price from $30 to $100, and the earrings go from $17 to $20.

Size Ranges

The rings are all made to order. The necklaces range in length from 15" to 21". The earrings are from 1 1/2" to 2 1/2" long.

Product Recommendation

I would recommend purchasing one of the princess rings. You have such a wide variety of beautiful colors from which to choose, and this ring would make a wonderful gift for someone special or even just for you. The fine craftsmanship that goes into this ring makes it well worth the reasonable price of $28.
