This concept seems awesome! I have tons of memories from the shores of MA, NC and the Caribbean. I would totally be down to gift these to my friends and family that were there for those memories, or even as a way of making new ones! Well done and can't wait till they are available!

Its a nice idea but too expensive for me. I can think of people that may enjoy this though.

great idea, but ridiculously over priced. Make it out of gold and maybe it would be worth the price-tag, but definitely not worth the cost in silver.

Too overpriced for a simple sterling silver necklace filled with "sand gathered from over 300 shorelines around the world". Sorry, but I'm a skeptic-this could be kids play box sand for all I know!
Aaron
Vote: Thumbs up!
I have seen these first hand and they are amazing quality and worth the price!!! For the poster below me it's not a "mix" of sand. It's your choice if sand from over 300 locations. Imagine giving your wife a necklace with sand from the beach you got married on or where you spent your honeymoon.

To Julie,I believe you pick the sand location. "mounds of sand from your favorite sunny spot" YOUR being the key word. Wouldn't make sense to mix.
Melissa

The artwork and idea are beautiful. And if you check out the website, for the skeptics out there, you can actually send her the sand you want her to use. Its amazing! I can't wait to get my collection and am eagerly awaiting the new mens ring!

Too pricey. Very cool idea but I couldn't afford that as a gift.

I'd need to see a list of the beaches and a letter of authenticity STILL very pricey.

Gorgeous jewelry, you will not be disappointed. I have a pair of earrings made by Holly, and they are stunning. Very high quality and unique.

I love the idea but the price is far too high for most. Drop the price by half and I would be a purchaser!

Too expensive for a necklace.
NM

Absolutely love the idea, but as many others have noted, the price is far too high. I'm also a bit curious as to how she got all that sand home - legally???? How much sand did she have to take from the beach to market a line of jewelry?

Hi!! I had to comment only because I completely understand the concern about the amount of beach sand taken from a beach. Most often, the sand is sent to me by a customer from their honeymoon or special vacation. I ask for only about a half of a cup which will last years and years and most people send it in a small, dry water bottle. A portion of all proceeds is donated to coastal preservation programs such as the Association to Preserve Cape Cod and the Surfrider Foundation :)

too pricy, maybe you can offer just to buy 1 instead of 3?
Alana

I love the idea but the price is way too high!
Tina
I like it and I understand that the cost might be so high due to getting the sand from so many places, but I don't see many of these selling for this price. It's cheaper and more memorable to make your own.

I think it would be cool to put the sand in yourself from a beach you've actually been to.

I bought one of these necklaces last Mother's Day from our childhood beach house and my Mom went crazy! People have been sending in sand for 3 or 4 years and that is how the artist has collected over 375 individual beaches worldwide. She keeps the sand in stock and the jewelry is made from individual beaches that you can choose from a list...it is not a mix of random beach sand. Just FYI :)

I've seen Holly's peices in person, and they strike up quite a conversation due to their unique design and stunning presentation. They look so beautiful on. 130 dollars doesn't seem like too much for handcrafted jewelry with sand from your favorite location. Authenticity has never been an issue as you can see all the jewelery has different sand and she has pictures of herself on the beaches :) Plus, her reviews are marvelous!

I'm shocked that people think $130 is expensive for a piece of jewelry! Glad I'm not dating any of you, lol. As a jeweler myself, I know silver is currently $40 an ounce. Factor in that its hand made and anyone can see where the price comes from. Seriously people, what kind of jewelry do you wear? The kind that turns your neck green??

Holly's work is amazing! I had her make a bracelet for me out of sand from 2 beacehs that I chose! The sand comes from beaches OF YOUR CHOOSING

I bought one of these for my wife and she loves it. She always has a memory of a special time with her.
