When things are changing so dramatically over the world on a daily basis, it is so lovely to see there are some stories that are are consistent and a real joy to share. I just received a lovely image of a young woman now with a family of her own who wore a Julleen Pearl Necklace set for her graduation and is still wearing the pearl jewellery set. She sent me the pic on Valentines Day and shared her post by saying she is wearing her much loved set to lunch on that day.
Sendle? Not likely.
No Cover for Undelivered International Parcels
Two Parcels lost in One month!
I was so pleased pre Christmas! to announce all our online sales were now to be delivered by Sendle. I had sent things before with them but on New Year’s Day a package was picked up by them and was never to be seen or heard of again. I had used the option of “signature on delivery”. NO signature over a month later then, means no delivery. We can’t control these couriers and their deliveries or non deliveries. Really the onus cannot be on the sender but the couriers who carry out a service they were paid to do.
What a RIP OFF! such a waste of good money using this company. In one week over the Christmas season they LOST two of my parcels one domestic and one International. For both I felt obligated to help these hard done by customers and needless to say, I saw to exactly that.
There is now a use of a disclaimer in the International deliveries. They won’t cover any losses (period) if the parcel is not received. Can you believe this? So watch out people and do not use this company please.
One parcel didn’t even leave WA! Let alone go to USA where it was to be delivered. Yet it looked like it was still in transit in their control panel.
I would preferred donating the items and the money I lost to charity. Instead, some lucky person scored two lovely free items for Christmas.
Black Tourmaline Trending – A Subtle Way To Wear It
When looking for a gemstone that has virtually every colour of the rainbow Tourmaline is the one that seems to be the most popular. First we couldn’t get enough of the water melon red/pink tourmaline but now what seems to be trending is the black tourmaline. Wearing specific gemstones particular to our individual tastes is actually not such a new inspiration really, as gemstones have been used for centuries to aid in health recovery or worn for their healing and protective qualities.
When trying to modernize this old concept, I am convinced that wearing a pearl earring with your desired protective stone as seen here with a black pearl and tourmaline – is a fashionable way to go about it. I really think I am onto something special! and how easy it is to wear daily.
When researching its attributes here are some interesting observations I have listed below about the Black Tourmaline. It’s a protective stone which repels and blocks negative energies and psychic attack. This gemstone also aids in the removal of negative energies within a person or a space. It can cleanse, purify, and transform dense energy into a lighter vibration.
The Health Benefits of Tourmaline Gemstone
- Helps detoxification.
- Supports fat loss.
- Reduces water retention.
- Improves circulation.
- Supports the liver and kidneys.
- Promotes a healthy mood.
- Helps eliminate toxic metals.
- Reduces lactic acids and free fatty acids.
Wonderful! so now how to wear it if you are not too keen in wearing raw rocks around in your undies (youch!) or around your neck.
Here’s my version of a subtle earring, using the powerful properties of the black tourmaline and the femininity of the gracious black pearl (which incidentally helps in balancing hormones)
A Portrait of Catherine The Great With her Hair adorned with Pearls
I am forever on the look out for fine ladies or women of royalty wearing exceptional pearl jewellery. Today I was thrilled to see this wonderful portrait of Catherine the Great, by Fedor Rokotov from 1763. I immediately focused as I usually do on the pearls of the wearer. The size of these amazing pearls in here hair would in life take your breath away. Remembering pearls were incredibly rare in the 1800’s and before. We do know that Russian aristocrats adored pearls but just feast your eyes on eyes this!

Love A White Pearl Earring in Sterling Silver by Julleen Jewels
Just when you think you have seen every possible White Pearl Earring on the planet you find there are loads more to enjoy. I have a real thing about creating completely different pearl jewellery but when it comes to the White Pearl Earring I have gone to town.
If the Julleen Pearl Jewellery range isn’t one of the biggest variety and collections of White Pearl and Sterling Earrings made by one designer label, then honestly I don’t know what designer label would do bigger and what’s more, better!
Pearl Jewellery is my true passion in life. I am sure I drive some people mad as I must mention my jewellery making every day. I strive to make an earring last for a life time and for a design that is only meant for the person who buys it. This is why many of my earrings are one’s OF and my customers return two decades on, yet have their original pieces still. I am collecting all the images of White Pearl Earrings for all to see on my Pinterest page. Some with a bit of colour added in the way of a stone like a garnet or peridot but basically a beautiful white pearl earring in Sterling Silver or with gold vermeil added over the sterling.
Please enjoy!

Pearl Jewellery with a touch of Black and Green
I really love using colours when making pearl jewellery. Creating a look that no one else would dare to try is my favourite thing. I wanted an Art Deco look and wanted to use a bit lime green with black against the stark beauty of white genuine pearls. Introducing the Designer set called Groovy. I used some cute Lime Crystal beads in both the earrings and the necklace I think it goes beautifully with the Black Wood Pendant and button pearls. It has a type of Deco feel to it and it certainly is something you will never see anywhere else.
