Swear Rings in Russia, Earrings on Perez

by

Gorgeous blogger Julia, the Thanksgiving Girl, has achieved two Wendy Brandes Jewelry firsts. She’s my first customer in Russia AND she’s the first to get the gold-plated version of my swear rings.

Julia rocks it in Russia.

Julia's sweatshirt-wearing dog likes the rings too.

Gold-plated means that these are the normal silver swear rings with a thin layer of yellow gold on top.A  The plated rings are $500 and I do them by special request only, so holla at me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com if you’re interested. Of course, I’d also be very, very happy to do a swear-ring order in solid gold. If you’re that kind of big spender, I’d forgo my normal adjustable bands and fit each ring to your finger personally.

If you want the swear rings in their original sterling silver, you can buy them from the blog. The companion ring, an asterisk, is available on the blog too. Need inspiration for how to wear them? Check out all the swear-ring wearing peeps on my Facebook fan page.

Meanwhile, my Cleopatra earrings are still being recognized for their cameo in Sex and the City 2. I was amazed when I saw Perez Hilton had them on his fashion blog, Coco Perez, today. Take a look.

  3. The swear rings look so luxe (in a badass, rock star) way. I could see them on Lenny Kravitz. Yep, Lenny Kravitz wearing just the gold plated swear rings would be a great advertisement.

  5. They look fabulous in gold! It’s funny, I’ve gotten so used to seeing my silver set, but seeing them in gold makes me feel as if I’m seeing the swear rings for the first time again. 🙂

  6. Oh my, LOVE the swear rings in gold! OTT Fabulous!

    And a hearty huzzah (that’s a cheer, not me clearing my throat) for the Perez mention!

  11. Congrats on yet another mentioning! The rings in gold look fab. So, any customers in Malaysia yet (I’m kinda hoping I’ll be the first – the piggy bank still ain’t full!)?

  12. Thanks for the mention, Wendy!! Happy to be twice first and happy to see the positive feedback on the golden plated version of the Swear Rings! Mr. Rhett Butler (my dog) is also thankfully barking for the mention and sweet comments, hehe

    P.S. Can you believe my captcha was “gigidog”? LOL!

  14. I love how the swear rings are universail, regardless of what language is spoken in a country. Congrats on the SATC2 feature! Such gorgeous earrings and I love the necklace version as well.

  21. MON DIEU!
    This is HUGE Wendy!!
    wonder if Perez has a dog…
    I could have so used yr swear rings getting into the Paris fashion shows-quelle horrors
    have you thought of doing them backwards?
    Then you can brand someone!

  24. I’m still loving these rings Wendy!! Heart heart heart them.. 🙂 I will start a little jar called my “Wendy Brandes Swear Rings Fund”… I’m still trying to add to my “Chanel 2.55 Fund”… it’s growing ever so slowly!! ha ha… Well, Julia is a sweetheart and Mr. Rhett Butler makes my heart melt! So awesome that she got them in the goldplated version.

    Hope you’re having a beautiful day sweetie!

    xx Love & Aloha

  31. From Russia with Love, eh? When I saw that dog, I thought “that dog needs swear accessories, too! Dog sized!”

  36. I love the swear ring. And congrats on the Perez mention. I may go to see SATC for your earrings alone, as the rest of the film looks terrible.

  37. OMG

  42. I didn’t know your earrings were on SATC. Yaaay!! And I’m sooooooo happy Samantha is wearing them. She’s my favorite!!

  43. fab! and congrats on the coco perez feature! It’s no surprise that you are getting so much press, the earrings are so gorgeous and there’s nothing else out there like it!

    • The layer of gold used in proper vermail is generally thicker than that used in standard gold plating. Plus I think a lot of customers would need a definition of vermail, so I would most likely end up saying the pieces were gold-plated sterling silver anyway, just to be clear.
