BeeJewelled’s necklace ranges are named after those influential and important women we have looked up to throughout history.
Born into aristocracy in 1729, ‘Sophie’ found herself married to the heir to the throne of Russia. It was a marriage of disappointment and humiliation, but she spent the time developing her intelligence and gained fame and support for her quick wit, considerable charm and extraordinary energy, despite being ‘a woman of little beauty’. After her husband assumed the throne she used her support (and her lovers!) to put herself in power, being crowned in 1762 under the title of Catherine II.
With her ministers she reorganised the administration and law of the Russian Empire and extended Russian territory by over 200,000 square miles. Her reign spanned 34 years as empress of Russia, the country’s longest-ruling female leader. Whether you loved her or hated her, you can’t help but admire her tenacity and determination.
I beg you take courage; the brave soul can mend even disaster.
All metal findings, chains, clasps and earring hooks are the finest 925 Sterling silver, sourced from the UK. Unless stated otherwise.
Due to the nature of handmade, your jewellery may be slightly different to that in the images, however the essential design will be the same.
The materials I use are entirely natural, with differing shapes, sizes and colours. Some may have small natural inclusions or be more segmented with patches of differing hues, meaning that each is beautifully unique.
Don’t forget that in buying from BeeJewelled not only are you getting a one-of-a-kind piece of jewellery made with care and attention by hand, but you are also helping to save the bees and, in turn, our Earth! Thank you.
This jewellery is entirely made by hand and will be shipped carefully packaged in a lovely organza bag for easy storage or gifting.
