Long Island Jewelry Designer Partners With Historical Fiction Website

June 3, 2013 - PRLog -- Whether you love her, hate her or know almost nothing about her, nearly everyone has heard the name “Anne Boleyn.” The much-maligned 16th century queen of England has seen an increase in popularity following the success of The Other Boleyn Girl and Showtime’s hit series The Tudors.

QueenAnneBoleyn.com is proud to announce the recent addition of a webstore featuring Anne Boleyn-inspired handmade jewelry designs by Long Island, New York designer Duchessa Handmade Jewelry. This writers’ community website was founded in 2011 by Beth von Staats, a talented Cape Cod-based writer with a passion for history. The site is a haven for budding historical fiction writers, biographers and poets, with a focus on English history.

"Queen Anne Boleyn Historical Writers is very excited to be able to offer Duchessa jewelry on the website. The pieces are of excellent quality and value,” says von Staats.

Duchessa offers unique handmade jewelry featuring plated metals, freshwater pearls and semi-precious stones inspired by history – both European and American, specifically the beautiful Gold Coast mansions of Long Island the designer has had the opportunity to explore. The pieces currently offered on QueenAnneBoleyn.com include several original designs with a regal and elegant air about them. Also offered is two versions of Queen Anne’s famous “B” necklace, which features prominently in the existing portraits of her from the 1500’s. The pearl enhancer can be added to an existing necklace, or you can choose an opulent triple strand necklace truly fit for a queen. While replicas of Anne’s “B” pendant are readily available, you can contact the site administrator to request a hand sculpted pendant in any letter of the alphabet. Every piece is handcrafted in the designer’s south shore Long Island studio.

History buffs, pop culture aficionados and handmade jewelry fans, QueenAnneBoleyn.com looks forward to sharing this exciting addition with you. Visit http://www.QueenAnneBoleyn.com for more.
