YOUR JEWELRY IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD!!! I ONLY WEAR YOUR JEWELRY NOW AS I'VE ORDERED SEVERAL PIECES WHICH ARE SO BEAUTIFUL !!! A PROBLEM I HAD, WAS THAT MY OGHAM SILVER PENDANT IN SIZE LARGE, BROKE AT THE LINK AND I ALMOST LOST THIS GORGEOUS PIECE OF YOUR JEWELRY. I KINDLY SUGGEST YOU USE "LOBSTER CLAW" CLASPS TO BE SAFE. ALSO, WONDERED WHY THE TWO BRACELETS I ORDERED TO BE ENGRAVED, "JOAN E STOW" & THE OTHER, SARAH J FRANCK, DIDN'T HAVE THOSE WORDS ON THE BRACELET. I GATHER OUR NAMES WERE IN GAELIC AND THE STRIPES MEAN OUR NAMES, IS THAT CORRECT? I AM THINKING SERIOUSLY ABOUT ORDERING YOUR ARDFERT STUD EARRINGS IN SILVER IN SIZE LARGE. MY HUSBAND AND MYSELF WENT ON A C-I-E BUS TOUR FOR 15 DAYS CALLED, "JEWELS OF IRELAND" IN OCTOBER. OUR TOUR DIRECTOR, LLOYD CREAGH, WHO IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST TOUR DIRECTOR WE'VE EVER HAD, TOLD PEOPLE ON OUR TOUR BUS ABOUT YOUR AMAZING SHOP IN DINGLE. I KNOW AT LEAST TWO OF THE WOMEN BOUGHT BRACELETS FROM YOUR SHOP. UNFORTUNATELY, I WAS ILL THAT MORNING, BUT THRILLED I CAN ORDER YOUR JEWELRY ONLINE !! MY PATERNAL GRANDMOTHER WAS BORN IN IRELAND AND BROUGHT TO THE UNITED STATES AS AN "IRISH BRIDE" WHO MARRIED MY PATERNAL GRANDFATHER. MY ONLY SIBLING (SISTER), AND MYSELF, HAVE OUR IRISH PASSPORTS. I WAS HAPPY TO JUST FIND OUT THAT MEGHAN IS YOUR DAUGHTER, Brian. MEGHAN IS ALWAYS EXCEPTIONALLY HELPFUL AND IS ALWAYS RUNNING THE BUSINESS OF MY ORDERS, SO PROFESSIONALLY, ALSO, A VERY KIND AND SWEET PERSON. WARMEST IRISH REGARDS, JOAN E STOW AT: stowsnow@aol.com
