Company Goal
As the designer and owner, I take special care in making each item unique, and use only quality materials; I am available to answer any questions you may have. Only the finest materials are used in my designs (e.g.), top quality precious and semi-precious stones, sterling silver, 14kt gold filled wire and components, 14kt Solid Gold, freshwater pearls, swarovski crystals in all shapes, colors and sizes. My designs incorporate Beads handcrafted by artisans and imported directly from: Bali, Indonesia, Thailand, Africa, and designed in my own unique style with love.(Note: Bracelet inspired by a Smadar Grossman Pattern)
Philosophy
When I design a specific piece I believe it is a work of wearable art for the buyer, I am giving that specific piece a part of me and truly love seeing someone else enjoy wearing the jewelry as much as I love making it. Designing jewelry has become my passion and I get my inspiration from everywhere; a unique bead, a lovely sunset, rain drops on a windowsill and most of all from my daughter Whitney. I believe that jewelry enhances the beauty of a woman, and I truly enjoy seeing that special piece of jewelry magnify her natural beauty.

Absolutely Gorgeous!!
I just wanted to tell you that I love the earrings, and thank you for including the backs for them, I've lost many a hanging earring that had no backs. Also, thank you for your lovely note! It was very nice doing business with you!
Many Blessings!

* Hi Gerina, I tried to post to your facebook page, pictures of the necklace I purchased from you, placed with my harp. If you want to share them on FB, please do. If not, that's OK too, but I really wanted you to see why I fell in love with it. I think my harp is beyond beautiful, and your necklace is a perfect compliment. It also goes with my music stand and harp bench. I have attached some of the pictures I tried to send you as well. Thank you so much! You have made my Christmas!
NOTE - Necklace is handcrafted by: Gerina Faison of Jewelry by Gerina, Pattern by: Jimmie Boatwright

So this summer I purchased ear rings from a vendor at remsen barn festival... Jewelry by Gerina.., I lost one riding my bike but I was always looking for it. Really liked them. For the heck of it I looked her up and contacted her. I told her my story and asked if I could purchase one earing. She said "no" I said really... She said "you can't purchase I will just send it to you" wow today I got two ear rings, backers and a polishing cloth and a note saying have a wonderful holiday. Restores my faith in people and pays to shop small!!!!!❤❤❤ amazing customer service

These pieces were custom requests and I literally could not be happier. From Gerina's sincerity and customer service, to her prompt response and delivery, to her beautiful packaging and attention to detail, and of course her impeccable design and richness of the pieces she creates. These pieces are sublime. Will definitely be doing business with Gerina again!

Ring fits perfectly!
She puts a lot of thought into packaging as well. I really appreciated that. Got to me fairly quickly.
Amanda on Jan 25, 2019
Beautiful delicate earrings. They arrived in good time and are as advertised. Thank you I am happy with my purchase :)
- Evelyn Jester on Jan 20, 2019
The earrings are very well made. I love them.
- Minnie Travis on Jan 13, 2019 I love the design. They’re beautiful and I can wear them with a gold or silver necklace. I really loved the personal touch of the hand written note. It’s the small extra such as the note that encourages me to buy more from this vendor.
