Copying JTV - now artisan crafted

JTV has such great artisan crafted jewelry from Bali - now I see QVC is selling it again after years of not - the designs are not as exciting but the prices are not too bad

I'm tired of jewelry from Bali.  It all looks alike.  I got quite a bit when Suarti was selling it and then Samuel B.  I rarely wear mine.

@Kachina624You make a good point with regard to the Bali jewelry brands looking the same.  To my eyes, that same statement applies to a number of designer type jewelry brands (Imperial Gold, Ripka, Bixby to name a few).  This doesn't mean I think the jewelry is bad because my personal experience with them has been most are great quality pieces which lasts for years.  Like you said however, after you collect a few pieces, the new pieces feel like something I already have.

I love the Balinese-style jewelry.  It is exotic and unique.  I only have a few pieces because it isn't my general style, but who couldn't appreciate the intricate beauty of it, even if you don't wear it?

I'm glad to see the Balinese jewelry return.  Can't say I miss Suarti; the most annoying woman ever on tv.

 

The return of this jewelry brings those who don't want to spend the $ on JAI an opportunity to have that same look.
