We all know that the right jewelry can set off an outfit or create a completely different look. If you are searching for unique pieces of fair trade jewelry, World Finds and their artisan Indian partners handcraft pieces with metallic and repurposed textiles that are lovely such as the two necklaces sent to me for this review.

Something that caught my eye immediately was the World Finds Spiked Metallic Necklace ($45). What fascinated me was the mixture of metallic textures and colors from silver, gold and gunmetal along with the varying lengths and thickness of the chains finished with small silver discs dangling from metallic gold spikes. It measures about 19.5 inches long with a center that measures about 2.34 inches. This piece definitely could make a bold, edgy statement.
The other piece of World Finds artisan jewelry that I selected was the Cascading Metallics Necklace ($40). I liked the effect of five graduating strands of gold chain intermixed with gunmetal, copper, gold, and silver metallic beads in varying lengths. The way this necklace draped around the neck in that multitude of layers was delicate and yet stunning and simple.
World Finds jewelry is meant to be stored in an airtight container to keep it from tarnishing. This jewelry is also not intended to come in contact with perfumes, sunscreens or lotions you that wear to keep it as beautiful as possible.
Unlike some other jewelry, cleaning the ones from World Finds is a bit different. You wipe the jewelry with a soft cloth. Instead of any liquid detergent, soap or jewelry cleanser, you use some diluted lemon juice to restore the shine or making a paste with baking soda, water and some lemon juice when their metallic jewelry may start to dull.
World Finds also sells textile jewelry that is from repurposed textiles and wooden pieces. These pieces are not meant to be cleaned. The use of water or chemicals could ruin the fabric attached to the beads.
Those hoping to add to their jewelry box in the near future should stop at World Finds website and browse through their line of gorgeous jewelry. I am confident that you will be pleased at what you will discover.
I do like unique jewelry from World Finds artisan jewelry. Any of these necklaces would make lovely gifts for my nieces.
