Joseph Allen Designs Review & Giveaway {GIVEAWAY CLOSED}

::GIVEAWAY CLOSED:: Congrats to Kristen @kristinnw!

I am a huge fan of handmade and hand stamped jewelry, so I was thrilled when Joseph Allen approached me to review his products! What makes Joe’s designs different from the rest is that his pieces are carved and casted.  He also only uses high quality Argentium Sterling Silver, which replaces some of the copper with metalloid germanium to make it the most tarnish resistant sterling silver available. This is good to know because I have several sterling silver necklaces that tarnish easily if I don’t keep them polished.

I have to admit, it was a little difficult choosing a design because he has so many unique, interesting pendants.  I finally decided on the Forever Circle with my husband’s name “ryan” engraved on it.  I always get my kid’s names on hand stamped pieces, so I thought I better include my dear hubby this time!  The first thing I noticed when I took the necklace out of the jewelry pouch (every piece comes with a jewelry pouch and a polishing cloth) was the pendant’s weight.  It feels so much sturdier and heavier than my other hand stamped pieces and I love that.  It feels indestructible!

See my Joseph Allen Designs whrrl story for more designs and info HERE.

Joe’s necklaces would make a fabulous and personal gift this holiday, so please consider placing an order at www.josephallendesigns.com.

    I would love the Little Bird Peace Necklace. My mother passed away a few weeks ago (cancer & alzheimers) in November and this would make a truly special remembrance of her!
