Does anyone own any Jeanine Payer jewelry? I love her stuff and I want to buy a bracelet, but I'm worried that the engraving will wear or rub off after a while. I don't think this would happen as much with necklaces, but what has been your experience? TIA!

One of my teachers in high school was Jeanine Payer's mother. I don't own any of her jewelry but I loved the pieces that my teacher wore. Her designs are so elegant and modern.

LOVE IT!
SO pretty ! The engravings stays on fine- and I didn't realize this but the chain is all HANDMADE too!

The clasp is even so original!

This is my engraving-
"Out beyond idead or wrongdoing and right doing there is a field. I'll meet you there." Rumi

I think thats so SEXY! lol. But yeah, its very special to me because it reminds me in this very black and white enviorment in which i live to remember to be grey, and have compassion

I love the inscription. IT looks so pretty on you.

oOOoh I have the other one that looks very similar to that one... it's such a great everyday piece. It says, "The soul is here for its own joy." -Rumi.

I also think it means so much more when there's a meaning to the piece.
cOngrats, and where it in good health~!

singerangel · Mar 25th, 2008, 03:11 AM

I've never seen these pieces before, they're beautiful!

lulilu · Mar 26th, 2008, 07:43 PM

I have loved her pieces for a long time. Please post photos of what you choose.

mistikat · Mar 27th, 2008, 09:15 AM

I have been collecting Jeanine Payer's pieces for years and have many of them - bracelets and necklaces (no earrings or rings). The quality is excellent and I have not noticed any wear to the inscriptions. I'd be happy to post pictures if anyone is interested; I have several of the older, limited edition "books" she did as well.

elizat · Mar 27th, 2008, 09:40 AM

I really like some of her pieces! I wish they cost a bit less though. The "sunset" necklace caught my eye- love the message.

mistikat · Mar 27th, 2008, 12:46 PM

I have gotten several of her pieces for very good prices on Ebay. It's worth checking back to see if what you want comes up...

bisbee · Mar 28th, 2008, 02:15 PM

I love her pieces...I have 2 rings that I've gotten on sale at 2 different sites. Don't worry about the engraving wearing off - that won't happen. Her jewelry is quite expensive, but you are paying for the work, not necessarily the materials - each piece is totally hand-made!

elizat · Mar 28th, 2008, 07:31 PM

^ Are there any stores you used in particular? I've googled and there are tons, but none that I can find w/ sale sections. Red Envelope has coupon codes, but a very limited selection.

bisbee · Mar 28th, 2008, 10:08 PM

I know I got one ring on sale at sundancecatalog.com - I think the other one came from twistonline.com.

mistikat · Mar 29th, 2008, 09:47 AM

elizat, I have seen her work on sale occasionally at ylang23 (www.ylang-ylang.com), and also at Giving Tree (http://www.givingtreejewelry.com/default.aspx).

Thanks, mistikat and bisbee!
