We already know to shop Anne Bocci Boutique for local artisan jewelry and current Northwest designers, including Suzabelle, Seth Aaron Henderson, (currently seen on Project Runway Season 7), WeMa and Clair Vintage Inspired. But what you may not know is that Bocci herself handcrafts much of the gorgeous jewelry in her charming Multnomah Village gallery-slash-boutique, and she’s gifting one lucky Neat Sheet reader a pair of her one-of-a-kind vintage jet beaded earrings.

anne-bocci-boutique-jewelry-jet-earrings-contest-pdxneatsheetBocci honed her jewelry design skills while living in Hawaii, so many of her pieces incorporate natural materials reflective of island life – clusters of freshwater, silver and black Tahitian pearls, accented with moonstones or lapis lazuli, all tangled and fastened with bits of glittering silver or gold.

Bocci’s intricate earrings, necklaces and bracelets are miniature pieces of art, which you can find on gallery-style display at her Portland boutique and also at the upscale Sand People boutiques in Hawaii. She crafted this particular pair of elegant earrings from vintage jet beads, and we love how they can be dressed up or down – and the soft  little clatter they make when you jiggle your head.

Win these earrings! To enter, send an e-mail with the subject line “JET SET” to neatsheet@karenvitt.com or leave a comment on this post. We’ll pick a random lucky winner at noon on Friday, March 5. (Retail value $58.)
