Jewellery Box Essentials: Something Local

Local is mos Lekker! I think with “the-something-local-jewellery-box-essentials” you should own more than one piece of “Something Local”. It can be regional to your own community or town or something Proudly South African! We are spoiled for choice in this country and in many instances the envy of the rest of the world. Let your jewellery reflect that. Just sit back and watch how the Tourists look at your neckline, hand, wrist or ears when you wear Something Local! It is a must-have Jewellery Box Essential; for all of us!

Below some of my favourite Proudly Local/South African pieces we have made. Contact us with questions you may have regarding any of these items or contact us with your own “Something Local” we can uniquely make for you.

No1: Pansy Shell

The Pansy Shell in any form of jewellery is a classic and a favourite for many when it comes to South African Jewellery, or Jewellery from The Gardenroute/Knysna/Plett Area. By far the most popular in pendant form, it is also available in Bracelets, bangles, studs, dingle dangle earrings & charm jewellery items.

Sterling Silver Pansy Shell Stud Earrings

Contact us if you are interested in buying a Pansy Shell for yourself or a loved one! Alternatively go to our Promotional Shop to see if any of our Pansy Shell items are on promotion/special.

No2: Table Mountain

Who in the world does not know & recognize this icon landmark!? It has made it to jewellery form in pendants, rings, bangle and many more. For us, the pendant neckpiece with an anchor or rolo chain has done very well in our overseas online shop. Mostly bought by South Africans feeling a bit homesick on the other side of the world.

No4: The Big 5

Big Five Photo — The Majestic Big 5: African Elephant, Lion, Cape Buffalo, Rhino & Leopard

If you have ever witnessed…or rather experienced a close encounter with any one of these animals in the wild, the memory is surely to stay with you for many, many years to come. I think that is why they are so popular in jewellery items with our Local and International Customers.
