Carol Barrett started her jewelry business with beaded necklaces. But when she and a former partner branded themselves as Gemini Jewelry and sold in high-end jewelry stores, such as Saks Fifth Avenue, she added earrings and bracelets to the collection.

Today, as Carol Barrett Jewelry, Barrett continues to design one-of-a-kind show-stopping earrings, bracelets, rings and pins. Sometimes clients want earrings to match Barrett’s stunning beaded necklaces. Sometimes, however, they find a pair of earrings or a bracelet that speaks to them independently.

Of course, these little beauties also make fantastic gifts.

Earrings
There is nothing ordinary about a pair of Carol Barrett Jewelry earrings. Because Barrett’s jewelry generally centers around one-of-a-kind antiques and collectables found on global travels, earrings are particularly special. There aren’t many opportunities to find tiny matching pairs of Asian collectables that will make a statement as a pair of earrings.

But Barrett finds them and beautifully accents them with semi-precious gemstones, intricate gold settings and hand-blown glass beads. She uses the highest quality 18K gold backing on all earrings and readily shares the stories behind every pair of jade buttons or coral flowers she artistically forms into earrings.

Bracelets
Barrett has found a lot of joy in crafting artistic and colorful bracelets from one-of-a-kind collectables, quality semi-precious gemstones and gorgeous hand-blown glass beads.

Bracelets offer Barrett a way to use some of the most beautiful and rare gemstones and pieces she finds when she can’t possibly get enough to make a necklace. They also present her clients with a more affordable way to make a big a fashion statement.

Pins
Many of Barrett’s pins can also be worn as pendant necklaces. They are typically stand-alone antiques and collectables Barrett has collected on her global travels. They are stunning Chinese and Japanese jade carvings, mammoth ivory netsukes and vintage silver pieces.

Barrett uses high quality gold fasteners that add to the beauty of the pins and to their quality craftsmanship.

Rings
Carol Barrett Jewelry rings are fashion pieces incorporating one-of-a-kind Asian collectables and antiques that make statements all on their own. Her settings tend to be simple and designed to highlight the stunning Chinese or Japanese jade carvings in brilliant greens, blues and yellows. She does sometimes design settings for special gemstones or jade pieces and also occasionally finds antique Chinese silver and other collectable rings.
