Jewelry for the Confident Woman
Years ago, a six year-old girl slipped on her mother's turquoise and sterling silver jewelry, planting the seed for a growing passion for jewelry. Years later, she began crafting jewelry out of gold, colored stones and diamonds, and the love for creating gorgeous pieces grew into a thriving business.
Today, Carole of Carol K nurtures her long-held passion she has had for genuine stones and large bold pieces by designing one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces for "the confident woman." Remaining true to her passion, as well as evolving over the years, Carole's designs now reach into the Western world, as well as the spiritual realm. Known for her wild and chaotic pieces, Carole enjoys mixing various materials to encapsulate her expressions, sentiments, and sensations.
"Basically, I am material-driven and will collect stones and items of beauty, and then put them together. I only work with materials and found objects that speak to me," Carole said. " My pieces are full of motion, easy to wear and are attention-getting."
Recently, Carole has created a line of incredible new necklaces, all of which are statement pieces for every kind of woman. The spiny oyster shell necklace (top-left) mounted in sterling silver with crystal nuggets is bold and bright, highlights a woman's neck, and is perfect with Western wear. The faceted agates necklace (bottom-right) is embellished with a sterling silver marcasite clasp and sterling bead for a distinctive look. Another matchless necklace of Carol K's is one crafted from small turquoise nuggets with copper pennies; each penny has a star or cross cut into it to make a simple, but powerful, statement. For women looking for a traditional necklace with a new twist, Carol K's white potato pearl necklace fits the bill. Embellished with natural rock crystal, this necklace can be worn to a formal event or a casual outing.
As an added bonus, Carol K jewelry will be available at 20%-off for The Western Vault newsletter subscribers. Simply mention the newsletter when ordering your piece, and you'll end up with a gorgeous piece at a great price. |

A Message from Barranada and the American Quarter Horse Association
I wanted to let you know AQHA First Vice President Gene Graves was
diagnosed Thursday with pancreatic cancer. Robbyn and I spent Saturday afternoon with Gene and Barbara at their home and they are in good spirits, with positive attitudes. Most importantly, Gene wants to serve as president of AQHA. I assured him that TEAM AQHA will help make that happen! Later that afternoon, we headed to Gene and Barbara's favorite place to eat and socialize, The Saddle Club there in Grand Island. For certain, Gene has no loss of appetite!
He has chosen an aggressive form of chemotherapy to stop the growth of the cancer cells and reduce the tumor. The oncologist told Gene and Barbara he can't see any reason why Gene can't move forward with his year as president.
His chemo sessions are being scheduled so as not to interfere with his
assignments as president... [so you] can look forward to seeing the same delightful Gene and Barbara!
Let's show them TEAM AQHA and flood their mailbox with cards and letters:
Gene and Barbara Graves
1711 S. Stuhr Road
Grand Island, NE 68801
Until next time, enjoy the ride and send those cards and letters to Gene and Barbara.
