13.5 to 8.5 mm Tahitian Pearl Endless Necklace in 27" Length

Every piece of Kiersten Elizabeth jewelry — her playful yet elegant beaded necklaces, her statement-making drop earrings and her arresting cocktail rings — is made to be passed down and keep those special moments alive for generations.

Despite the natural skill with jewelry design she has demonstrated over time, Elizabeth didn’t have a career in her craft at first. She worked in healthcare IT while making jewelry for herself as a hobby because she could never find pieces she liked enough to wear. Her colleagues often complimented her work and even began asking her to create custom engagement rings. Eventually, the Charleston, South Carolina-based designer asked herself why she wasn't making a business out of her talent.

Elizabeth wanted to do it right. She apprenticed with a major international jewelry company to learn the ins and outs of the trade while earning certifications from the Gemological Institute of America in diamonds and colored gems. Elizabeth also traveled the world in search of rare and distinctive gemstones. She built essential business contacts over the years in all corners of the globe in order to secure Burmese rubies and Colombian emeralds for one-of-a-kind creations that are intended to be in a wearer’s jewelry box forever. 

Speaking to Dallas Style Design magazine, Elizabeth described her jewelry as “that kind of living memory that you keep with you and you pull out and you wear." 

When she was ready, Elizabeth launched her eponymous fine jewelry brand in 2016. Her collections feature accessories created in Art Deco, Art Nouveau and Edwardian styles with designs inspired by romantic locales like Paris and the Abaco Islands in the Bahamas.
