New Website Creates Buzz Over Silver Turquoise Necklaces
(PRWEB) July 23, 2013 -- Something borrowed, something blue. You've heard the expression a million times. Nothing embodies the term more than a gorgeous silver turquoise necklace.
"That's our motto around here when we're talking about silver turquoise jewelry," says Heidi Watson of the newly-launched silverturquoisenecklace.com. "Something borrowed and something blue because of the gorgeous blue coloring of the stone and the way Native Americans borrowed the use of silver from Spanish settlers."
The very popular fusion of silver and turquoise jewelry in Native American culture was only made possible when the Spanish arrived in the New World and shared their silversmithing knowledge with the natives. The catalog of available Native American artisan jewelry available from old and new artists is quite impressive.
There is a lot of variation in regards to styles ranging from large chest pieces to subtle pendant styles. According to the new site, many shoppers are beginning to buck the trend of cheap and flimsy costume jewelry in favor of pieces which are crafted by hand, knowing that they will retain their beauty and their value for many years to come.
"When we're talking about Native American art, a silver turquoise necklace is really a type of crown," says Watson. "An ornate necklace is really a signifier of a powerful and cherished woman."
Watson is also quick to point out the growing trend towards using a silver turquoise necklace to commemorate special events in life. "For young ladies especially, a tribal necklace is commonly worn for things like prom, graduation, or birthday parties. It's that beautiful marker that really draws all eyes on them."
Even older woman are getting in on the trend of wearing Native American jewelry. Watson shares that she is inundated with requests for helping woman choose a necklace they can take from the boardroom to social events to date night with their boyfriends or husbands.
"A lot of women want to convey that they are in touch with their spiritual roots, and that they have a flirty, energetic side to their personality. They know that nothing screams out about being a free spirit quite like a silver turquoise necklace.”
Heidi also points out the heirloom quality of Native American jewelry. "I know a lot of women, personally and through the website, who buy a gorgeous piece of artisan jewelry for themselves knowing that one day they intend to pass it on to their daughter."
