Why You Should Buy and Wear Mountain Jewelry
Although mountain jewelry is a unique and beautiful way to express your love for the great outdoors and the majesty of the mountains., I started making and wearing mountain jewelry for very personal reasons.
I am deeply connected to the mountains of the northeast and west (Alaska, California, upstate N.Y., Montana, and New Mexico), and started making mountain jewelry when my husband started having some strange health symptoms, which was quite stressful for me (he was later diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease).
I found my balance and well-being by hiking and backcountry skiing in the mountains. I then found that designing, creating, and wearing little “silver mountain paintings” helped to bring me calm and connected (as a caretaker it’s easy to lose yourself).
That’s my story, but why should you buy and wear mountain jewelry? Here are some other reasons to consider:
1 It's a statement piece
Mountain jewelry is bold and eye-catching, making it a great statement piece. Whether you're wearing a delicate mountain pendant necklace or a chunky mountain-themed bracelet, your jewelry is sure to get noticed. Mountain jewelry is a great way to add personality and individuality to your look.
2 It showcases your love for the mountains
If you're a hiker, climber, or just someone who loves the outdoors, mountain jewelry is a great way to show your love for the mountains. Nature often inspires mountain jewelry and features designs like mountain ranges, pine trees, and wildlife. Wearing mountain jewelry is a way to carry a piece of the mountains with you wherever you go.
3 It's versatile
Mountain jewelry can be worn with a variety of outfits, from casual to dressy. It can add a touch of bohemian style to a casual dress or a rugged edge to a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Mountain jewelry is also versatile in terms of the materials it's made from, with options ranging from sterling silver and gold to leather and beads.
4 It's a conversation starter
Mountain jewelry can be a great conversation starter. Whether you're wearing a necklace with a mountain range pendant or a bracelet with a pine tree charm, someone is sure to ask you about it. This can be a great way to meet new people and connect with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.
5 It's a reminder of your adventures
If you've hiked or climbed in the mountains, wearing mountain jewelry can be a great way to remember those adventures. A piece of mountain jewelry can serve as a memento of a particularly challenging climb or a reminder of the beauty of a particular mountain range.
Mountain jewelry is a unique and beautiful way to express your love for the outdoors and the mountains. It's a statement piece that showcases your personality and individuality, and it can be worn with a variety of outfits. It's also a great conversation starter and a reminder of your outdoor adventures.
If you love the mountains and want to express that love in a stylish way, consider adding some mountain silver jewelry or mixed metal (silver and gold) mountain jewelry to your collection.
