special occasion gifts

I looked at this piece for a long time before buying it because of the cost. The workmanship is great. I do wish it were a bit larger, but it is a stand-out piece just the same. I could have never bought it if it were more expensive. It matches others Chrysocolla pieces I've bought perfectly.

I bought one of these for a trip and liked it so much I use it every day for work now. It has the right mix of pockets (some zippered) and slots to handle cash, cards, tickets/passports, phone, and glasses without being bulky or heavy. If I need to, I can put anything else I need to carry in the roomy main pocket. One of my friends liked my red one so much she bought the same one. Another friend bought the cinnamon. Both of those colors are beautiful. My bag has held up remarkably well--still looks new and gets compliments after 2 years of hard travel, regular use, and minimal upkeep. Definitely worth the money.

This is darker than in the photo, but matches the set. I bought these for my young daughter so that she could have her own set and it makes her look like a Mayan princess. I took a few links out so it would fit well around her little neck and I will put them back in as she grows. Same goes for the bracelet. We have small necks and wrists so I have to take a link out for bracelets and two for necklaces for myself. Anyway, this is the cutest set. It's classic and a rich jaguar green, but also very cute and appropriate, in my opinion, for any age. I love the pieces I have bought from Zandra. This woman makes excellent quality and beautiful styles. I have bought several pieces and I love the ones I have and can't wait to receive the rest. My grandmother would be have been starry eyed seeing my "baby" in her very own Mayan jade in her own size.
