Mother's Day Gift Guide-Zora New York Review and Giveaway

Posted by Ellie-A Little of This and a Little of That at 11:51 PM

Mother's Day...What to get Mom?  Shop at Zora New York and get her a lovely piece of handcrafted designer jewelery.  From the website:   Zora New York was launched in October of 2009 by Brooklyn born self-taught designer and entrepreneur Diane Modric. Our mission is to create handmade jewelry and wearable art that combines elegance, simplicity, and fun. Diane became interested in jewelry after working for a high-end New York based jewelry company. She then began taking classes and designing jewelry for herself, friends, and co-workers.  

The Zora New York line features handcrafted jewelry designs made from  .925 sterling silver, semi-precious stones, Swarovski crystals, pearls, and unique findings.  All of the pieces are hand wire-wrapped and assembled with fine detail.  Their designs are made to be worn everyday conveying a sense of joy and passion for living.

Here are the categories they carry:

Zora New York has offered my readers a 20% discount on your next purchase from now through Mother's Day.  Use code MOM.
Zora New York allowed me to choose the piece of jewelery that I wanted and I chose the Beatrice Necklace in Burgundy.  When I received it, it came with a 16" chain, which for me was a little short.  I received an email from Diane not long after that telling me that she decided to make the chains longer 18" and 24", so I was telling her that it was a little small and she was kind enough to send me a longer chain (24") and now it's perfect.  I love it.  It's so pretty and dainty. 

Zora New York has so many choices of Necklaces to pick from.  It was a hard choice.  Here are a few of the others.
They also have Bracelets and Earrings.  Here are some of them:
One thing you will notice about Zora New York is all the pieces of jewelery have a name of a woman.  I thought that was interesting.

Zora New York is giving one of my readers the Stephanie Earrings.  To win visit Zora New York and choose a piece of jewelery that you would like and tell me something about the piece besides the price. (This entry must be done for all other entries to count)
