Black Owned Business Week: Jessica Designs Jewelry


Tis the season to be bombarded with annoying ads for jewelry, like the Zales one where that woman is ice skating with her grandpa sugar daddy and he pulls out some bling to make up for his brittle bones? Well that's all well and good, and I know Kay Jewelers and Jane Seymour need money too. But this year, how about we leave the mass produced apology jewelry to those who save shopping for their spouses til Christmas Eve, shall we?

This year, why not buy something unique and beautiful from a designer right here in Hartford? Jessica Designs' pieces are as elegant and tasteful, with styles that fit everyone's taste and personal flair. The pieces range from something simple for everyday in the office, or a classy holiday party (hint hint). Just look through her website and you'll see what amazing talent she has. You ever go to the beach with some girls who stop every 5 seconds to collect rocks and shells and they're like, "I'm going to make a necklace!" even though you know you'll never see this necklace, but you nod and smile anyway cuz you want to get in her pants? (what? just me?) I'm pretty sure Jessica is the person who actually makes the necklace and makes it look mag-effing-nificent.

Nothing on the site hitting the nail on the head? That's cool, just call her up and talk to her about making something custom for you. She's good like that. You can also arrange for an in home show, so that way you can help her generate some business with your friends AND earn money towards some jewelry of your own! It's kind of like those other jewelry parties your friends have, but less pyramid-like and you can be all progressive and brag about how you support local artists.

Behind the intricate designs, Jess is a gem herself. She comes in the room wearing a smile and some of her beautiful creations, telling you all about what she's been up to in her soft spoken way. This is good, because I don't like giving my money to mean people. Unless they work at McDonalds cuz I needs me my Big Macs.

Being that it is the season of giving, or if you're not into that then consider this your lucky December, all jewelry will be 10% off with free shipping until December 24th! So even if you don't celebrate Christmahannukwanzicas but you want to get down on some badass jewelry, I'd suggest making your first purchase not now, but right now!

  1. On the subject of jewelry, I keep coming back to the work of Arthur Smith. I come back figuratively in that I tend to think of his work, and literally, in that I have checked out the Brooklyn Museum's collection of his work numerous times over the years.

  2. I love Jessica Designs! If you want something equal parts affordable, beautiful and one-of-a-kind, there is no other place to look for jewelry.
