Product Review – Black Drop Designs
If there’s one thing the tiny person inherited from me, it’s a love of all things jewelry. I don’t wear a whole heck of a lot of it. But, the pieces that I have are significant.
Ken can attest – after years of wondering if I will ever change a pair of earrings or try a different necklace – that when I make a jewelry decision, it’s a big one.
I’m one of those people who will look at and admire accessories of just about any flavor. I love unusual gemstones like amber and moonstone. Sparkly is always fun. But, really, when it comes down to it, I like my jewelry simple, unique and gorgeous.
That’s how I fell in love with Black Drop Designs.

Created by Victoria-ite turned Vancouverite Jade Pellerin, these photo pieces combined with resin, acrylic and even wood are absolutely some of the most spectacular wearable art I’ve seen in ages.
My own obsession with photography and graphic art makes me love her earrings and pendants even more. I’m in serious awe of Jade’s talent and creativity.
While these pieces are modern, simple and extraordinarily gorgeous, one thing that makes them very appealing is that the average handmade jewelry lover can actually afford most of the gems in her collection under $100.

I am particularly in love with her tree and leaf collection. Wow!
With Black Drop’s studio in Vancouver, you would think you’d need to factor a ferry ride into landing one of these beauties. But, happily, Erin over at Be On Sixth in downtown Courtenay carries a wide range of Jade’s work, as well as several other fantastic B.C. jewelry artist pieces.
So, when you’re in the mood for indulging a bit and treating yourself to a gorgeous new handmade piece of jewelry, check out Black Drop Designs. Jade’s work is truly exquisite.

Here at Our Big Earth we have a strict policy about how we handle product reviews. We only review products we've enjoyed and, while businesses do occasionally send us products (we will always tell you when that is the case) we either pay for the product or use it as a giveaway. If a product is not reviewed, it is returned. If a product is reviewed, a business or advertiser has no editorial control over the review.
They see the review for the first time when you do. Advertisers and businesses cannot pay to have their products reviewed and you'll never see a link, product or business mention in a post that has been purchased by that business.



Wow. Gorgeous. Funky and unique – just what this girl looks for.

Beautiful! I am completely smitten with that leaf pendant

Thanks for the product review, Our Big Earth…
It’s always great to hear that people enjoy my work. Especially after a long day in the studio (like today).
I’ve ordered a bunch of new metal-smithing tools in preparation for my new and evolved line, which will hopefully be available online and in stores like Be by this summer.
