Review & Giveaway: Rica Jewels California

Review & Giveaway: Rica Jewels California

When Daniela from Rica Jewels California reached out to me about a possible review and giveaway for my readers, I was pretty excited! I remember entering a giveaway for one of her pieces over on The Art & Tree Chatter of Aquariann, and thinking how talented she was. I popped into her Etsy shop again to see what she was up to and was immediately drawn to several items. Her unique and beautiful jewelry is just gorgeous! I swiftly replied to her to let her know I’d LOVE to review one of her items and am even more excited to offer one to you guys!

In her Etsy shop, I totally fell in love with a pair of Emerald Sterling Silver Earrings. When she offered those as one of the options for the review, I pretty much flipped! I was so in love with them already and could totally picture wearing them with several outfits hanging in my closet. She shipped them over in a cute little drawstring jewelry bag with her logo on it, which I can definitely appreciate since I love when things are personalized. Then I opened the bag like it was Christmas morning! The earrings- oh my gosh!

The photos just don’t do them justice. I had to wait for a sunny day to photograph them outside to try to capture the sparkliness of them, but in person they are a thousand times more beautiful, especially when the sun catches them.

These amazing Turkish style earrings measure at just about two inches in length and are comprised of sterling silver, and Emerald and cubic zirconia stones. They have a good weight to them- usually earrings of this size are way too heavy for my ears, but these aren’t. They are very comfortable to wear, too!

I just can’t get over the sparkle! I’m wearing them to the wedding I’m attending this weekend to jazz up my plain black dress. I can’t wait! I know for certain I am going to get compliments on them- they’re amongst the prettiest earrings I own! The best part is these earrings are only $42– a total steal for something so stunning!

One of my favorite things about Daniela’s shop is the charity aspect. As you know, I also donate part of my Etsy shop profits to my favorite charity: the American Brain Tumor Association. Daniela feels the same, and donates to her favorite cause with the purchase of items from her shop! On the business card inside the package, there is a photo of the sweet little girl, Luz, that Rica Jewels California sponsors through ChildFund. It’s such a wonderful cause!
