We are very excited to introduce a gorgeous new line of birthstone necklaces designed by Nina Nguyen exclusively for Orange and Pear! Nina's jewelry defines style with intricate, colorful, and artistic details. Each piece is thoughtfully designed by Nina in her Florida studio and carefully hand-made by skilled artisans in Nina Nguyen Design's, Women's Co-Operative in the rural village of Kontum, Vietnam.

Nina's world travels have influenced her creativity and her Asian background provides her many inspirations. As a young girl growing up in Vietnam, Nina loved to help her uncle, a goldsmith, in his jewelry casting foundry. After relocating to the United States, she continued designing jewelry as a hobby, but it wasn't until Nina took a life changing journey to India that she decided to start her own jewelry design firm.

The birthstone necklace for June features a beautiful moonstone gemstone, accompanied by a gold vermeil disc. We love that the 16", 14k gold filled chain is adjustable. This timeless piece will be a great addition to any outfit, whether it be for everyday use or a night out on the town. Nina hopes that every woman will enjoy wearing her jewelry as much as she loves designing each piece -- we hope you enjoy it too.
