Designs Handcrafted to Rough Perfection

Turquoise and Gold Earrings

Unusual precious and semi-precious gems, exotic color combinations and unique components begin to tell the story of Chessy Shay Designs.  Attention is given to the textural quality of each  handmade item as we select gemstones that have a character and roughness to them. Our pieces are made in limited editions to preserve their uniqueness, match fashion trends, and allow you to feel confident about wearing something that is truly individual.
