Raw Gemstone Pendants | Handcrafted Raw Gemstones
Ethically mined we have a variety that are all popular and well known and also look stunning on the sterling silver chain it comes with. Each gemstone is in its raw form and measures approximately 10 MM x 20 MM. Every stone is different so these are approximate measurements only.
Choosing the wrong bangle size
Unfortunately, not all bangle sizes are the same measurements. Sizes vary due to the cut of the bangle, so the small from a different retailer may be a different size in Desiderate. If you know the measurement you can't go wrong. How to get a bangle when you don't have one to measure the right size? Read more!

How Jewellery Makes You Feel
It’s so much more than gemstones and metal — it’s a symbol of who you are. Jewellery is so much more than a pretty bauble on a ring, or a chunky pendant or sparkly earrings. It’s personal and meaningful and special. When we buy jewellery for ourselves, we’re saying, “I’m here, I matter and I deserve to treat myself.” Too often, women are told to sacrifice for others; put themselves last. #bohojewellery #desiderate #australianmade #wollongong #sterlingsilver #giftsforher #handcrafted #blog
How To Clean Jewellery
Most gemstone jewellery is best cleaned with warm water, a little detergent and a soft brush, like a toothbrush. Gently scrub with the soapy water to loosen all the dirt particles and then since thoroughly in clear water and polish dry with a soft cloth. Firstly, get to know the gemstones in your jewellery collection. You can't just clean everything the same way because, like us, each gemstone is unique. #bohojewellery #desiderate #australianmade #blog #sterlingsilver #giftsforher #handcrafted

Are Zodiac Pendants Popular?
People are transforming their ideals and the way they think to be more in line with a spiritual way of living perhaps.

Why Does Sterling Silver Tarnish?
Tarnish is a thin layer that forms on the top of the piece, which actually keeps the inner layers protected. The reactions that occur on the outer layer which is exposed to chemicals in the air and environmental elements, are what results in changes to your jewellery. Tarnish can make Sterling Silver jewellery look discoloured, dull or black, and is what can turn your fingers green, or leave slight marks on the skin after wearing them. #bohojewellery #desiderate #australianmade #sterlingsilver
