De Blancas is a Canadian pearl jewelry brand that uses ethically sourced pearls for all their pieces. (More on that in a bit.)
You can get ten percent off your entire order when using checkout code MEGJOHNSONAUTHOR or the link deblancas.com/MEGJOHNSONAUTHOR.
There is a large selection of earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and more, and now, you can also create your own custom pieces with their online jewelry designer.
This custom ring was designed using the De Blancas jewelry designer.
The first thing I decided about the design was that the ring would be silver because I love silver. The De Blancas team mentioned that my name could be engraved on the ring if I wanted. I thought that was such a cool suggestion because my given name, Margaret, and its nicknames, including Meg, mean pearl or gem. (My middle name, Katherine, means pure, and my second middle name is Brosnahan for my mom's side of the family. When I was really little I was called Meggie and Meggie Kate.) Once I knew the ring would have my name on it, I decided that I wanted the ring to have an asymmetrical design. The online designer is easy to use, and the process of creating different designs felt relaxing to me.
Something that I really like about De Blancas is the brand's commitment to sustainability. All the pearls are ethically sourced. You can read more about the sustainable farms on their site. There is also a video on the site so you can watch some of the process. We are currently living through a destructive time globally, and we need to become more aware of brands that value sustainability.
