::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 bought 2 Joseph Allen designs, one for myself and one for my sister. His work is stunning! The finest craftmanship I have seen. I would love to give one to my mother also as a Christmas gift. I highly recommend them to anyone, even if you are not a mom.

I would love to get a hand stamped necklaces for my sister in law. She has 3 boys, one is graduating from High School in a few short months and her youngest has a rare disease and we dont know if he is going to be around much longer. I have been wanting to get her a hand stamped necklace with all of the boys names on it so that she can keep them close to her heart no matter what but money has been so tight this year. I love the Always Heart design!

I love the Always Heart….Custom made and personalized hand stamped sterling silver necklace, and it’d make a terrific gift because all of my daughters love jewelery.
Question: How many characters are allowed for personalization? (I ask because I have seven children.)

I’d love to give my teen granddaughter a Medium Disc Birthstone with her name and birthstone. That would be so special for her! I like the Joseph Allen Designs because they’re unique and “sturdier” looking than most similar products, the sandblasted finish looks great, and they resist tarnishing. Yay!
