…………………………..The……………………….ALABASTER…………………..necklace has warmer colors, and this wonderful AMBER BEAD which is a color from the print. The link pins and Lobster Claw are chocolate metal…………………I thought it would be wonderful to have a custom colored necklace to go with each color….WINTER FLORAL PRINT shirt………………..I hope I have cleaded up any confusion that many still exist……………..enjoy………………….much Love…………………….Louis

Morning, there seems to be some confusion over the colors of the faceted glass beads. The alabaster has the chocolate chain and lobster claw, the blackberry has the green beads. MY sneak peek photos are correct. The necklaces were named for the floral print they go with. I though if you wanted one of the prints, and you wanted the coordinating necklace, it would be easier to give  the print and the necklace the same name. I will post new pics on a solid background so there will be absolutely no confusion………….much Love……….Louis………………P.S. I passed along ALL of your good wishes to Jac and she is very grateful!………BTW…..I just checked the Linea jewelry site and they have it listed correctly!……thank you all

I couldn’t let another minute go by without wishing all our friends in the path of Hurricane Harvey a safe passage. We went through a devastating hurricane a few years ago when we were evacuated. Living on the water is a wonderful thing, but when Mother Nature roars her head there is nothing more frightening. When I heard on the radio, driving home from QVC last night, that one of the mayors from one of the coast Texas towns said if you stayed behind and didn’t evacuate as we told you…..”you should write your social security number with a sharpie on you arm so you can be identified after the storm!”, WOW, I guess you can’t speak any clearer then that. Let’s pray that you all listened to this warning and did the smart thing. Our prayers are with you all!……….

…………………………..God bless………………….much Love…………………………….Louis and Jac

There have been some questions about the quality of the beads used in the Etruscan set. Yes, they are plastic….but….as I always tell you there are all different qualities. These are called Copper Coated Plastic beads, and I have used them many times in the past. You probably own them without realizing it!. These, as someone mistakenly said, are NOT junk!…I take personal offense with this remark…The “plastic” bead is first coated in copper which adheres to the plastic which prevents any pealing what so ever! It’s a chemical thing. Then the beads are replated in the silver tone, gold tone and even the Copper Ox.  Why use copper coated  plastic beads? because they are very light weight, and when you are making a necklace at 72 inches, which no one else does, you want a light weight bead. As I have said I have used this quality many many times before. You may remember the long necklace that came in gold tone oblong beads with clear ruby or emerald beads, also in root beer and chocolate beads….they were copper coated plastic beads. Many of you own the three strand Nugget bead necklace that came in silver tone and gold tone…..yes plastic coated copper beads! When very large beads are used they are not metal….they are usually copper coated plastic beads. For your information the ones that peal are NOT copper coated beads so the plating does not adhere to the bead for very long. These are inferior quality. For those of you who are alway concerned about weight you will love these Etruscan pieces, because they will give you a “statement” look without being weighted down. All I can say is give them a try. I know you will not be disappointed……if it matters to you the models all love them, and they have no idea what they are made of. Don’t let “plastic” scare you away!……on  another note the earring are absolutely weightless, and if you think they are too long for you…..they can be EASILY SHORTENED!…….you should know I would never sell you something of inferior quality. I and TCJC stand behind everything we sell……I will be proudly using Copper Coated beads in the future as I have done in the past, and you will love what’s coming next spring!…much love, Louis
