My friend, Krista Jasillo, was very kind to model the jewelry for me. She is wearing one of my Martha garnet colored crystal necklaces made exclusively for George Washington's Mount Vernon and which made the 2018 Early American Life directory! A great honor. The necklace and matching earrings are sold in their gift shop, and on-line. You can find them here, and here!
Earrings pictured are different than what Mount Vernon currently is selling as I thought it would be fun to add a rosette above the teardrop to match the necklace.
Also shown in the photo is the reproduction Forget Me Not turquoise ring that is also sold at Mount Vernon, and within in my Etsy shop and is gold flash plated over brass - an affordable alternative to real gold. It is also appropriate for the 18th century as they did have faux gold or plated items after a specific time in the century.
