Presenting New, Artist Designed Gold and Gemstone Jewelry Line

Jewelry designer Jill Montesanto of Jill Alessandra Jewelry presents her new line of beaded jewelry with handcrafted gold accents. A beautiful choice for those who love unique and the original.

MOUNT VERNON, NY - Jewelry designer Jill Montesanto of Jill Alessandra Jewelry is unveiling her new line of luxurious beaded gemstone and gold jewelry. Offered in garnet and 14 karat gold or lapis and 18 karat gold combinations, these pieces are reminiscent of imperial Rome, accented with gold drops which look like they were forged at the hands of an ancient metalsmith. In reality these are the creations of the jewelry artist Jill Montesanto who has imagined and sculpted these pieces (including the clasp) to be combined with these long used stones to create a primitive, handmade look in precious materials that will lend a richness to any outfit from jeans to formal wear.

Jill Alessandra Jewelry has for the past seven years provided quality handmade and handcrafted jewelry in gold and silver. Known especially for her unique yet comfortable, wearable rings, she has taken a new turn with this line. She explains, "I have been inspired by the rustic peasant and Eastern European trends in fashion. They are so earthy and feminine that I wanted to create a line of necklaces, earrings, and bracelets which evokes that same feeling with rich colors and a handmade look." She is planning to offer these designs with new colors for spring, including sterling with moonstone and rose quartz.

Also available is her signature "Trees and Roots" collection. In 14 karat or 18 karat gold, these unique designs are hand polished by the artist herself to achieve a matte and shiny finish which accentuates the tumble of tree and root like forms presented in the polished frame.

Both lines consist of quality necklace, pendant, earring, bracelet, and ring designs which are handcrafted in the USA. With the ancient elegance of gemstone beads and original, handcrafted designs, Jill Alessandra Jewelry will add a spark excitement to any fine jewelry venue.
