Nelly VanSee: Zodiac Pendant of Your Choice Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed with 177 comments. Thank you to all who entered. Congratulations to the lucky winner ~ Wanda!

Nelly VanSee offers a wide selection of handmade jewelry: from puzzle rings, zodiac pendants, gemstone amulets, rings, hand knotted pearls and gemstones beads. If we don't have what you are looking for, we can customize-it for you, just ask.

  • We only use high quality material to create our jewelry, all pearls and gemstones have been carefully chosen for their quality and beauty.
  • All alloys used are pure and lead free. All pearls and gemstones are hand knotted professionally like the ones you will find in high-ends stores.
  • Part of my day job is re-string and hand knotting pearls and gemstones for stores.
  • Since we only work in small production line, most our items are one of a kind or produced in very limited quantities.
Ruby Celtic puzzle ring - 14kt gold - Genuine natural color Ruby

Legend has that this style of ring originated in Turkey first, so as to ensure the loyalty of a man's wife. If she returned with no ring or a puzzled ring then that would prove she was disloyal.

If taken off it separates into to many confusing rings that prove difficult to return to their proper form, and proves to the other that the ring has been removed.

Times have changed and now the ring is not only used as a wedding band but also as a luxurious and beautiful conversation piece. Although the idea may have started in Turkey this piece is entirely Celtic in style, and can be worn as an eclectic accessory for friends, couples or even bachelors.

Each and single one is entirely hand made out of 14kt gold wire, soldered separately with care. This ring will be made to your finger size. Made to order, allow me a few days to craft this ring to your exact requirements, then the ring will shipped to your address immediately.

14kt yellow gold with a handset genuine, natural color ruby. Also available in white gold.

Capricorn - Small silver zodiac pendant

Wisdom of the ancients. knowledge that predates the bible by centuries, Mysteriously used by early cultures all over the world and still it has home in today's societies. Even it's role is unchanged. So for those who are skeptical of the zodiacs being just a laughable thing to be taken as lightly as a feather, I beg to differ.

This pendant measures 15mm in length by 14mm of height and 3mm of thickness.

Also available in gold.
