With literally thousands of tiny little treasures, it would be nearly impossible to list every item, in every possible color combination on our website. Those of you who have collected Lee Brevard for a while understand how extensive the collection truly is. While you are browsing online, keep in mind most designs are shown with a neutral stone to make imaging colored stones easier. If there is a design, color combination or stone you are interested in and it is not currently listed, please contact us here in the studio. We are always willing to try to accommodate special requests whenever possible.
Most designs are shown online with a neutral stone to make it easier to imagine color, please contact the studio for additional options.

Becoming engaged, getting married, celebrating an anniversary, commemorating a life event or just simply looking for something completely original, we offer our custom design services.
For presentation, most of our designs are shown with a neutral stone on the website, but Brevard is known for its playful mix of stones. Metal options include sterling silver, oxidized sterling, platinum and 18k yellow, rose or white gold. The core of the collection is composed of sterling silver and 18k yellow gold, but we love mixing metals! If you don’t see the combination you are looking for on the website, please reach out to us to discuss creating it special for you.
As a first step, we recommend becoming more acquainted with our aesthetic online. Once you have a sense of what you’re looking for, make an appointment to discuss your project. Make an appointment to visit the studio or send an email with as much information as possible (with links or photos) to start the conversation.
Your engagement and wedding rings are more than a bit of sparkle and a big diamond. As commitment symbols of your love, your rings should uniquely express who you are as a couple. Or perhaps honoring a significant life event or a recent rite of passage with a special necklace or a pendent. Whatever your vision, together we will craft something that is completely one-of-a-kind and uniquely yours.

By its very nature, jewelry is delicate + should be handled as such. To ensure the longevity of your jewelry, here are a few basic tips to help keep you + your jewelry happy together.
In general, jewelry does not really like to be wet. Some pieces depending on the metals, stones or other components are more sensitive to moisture than others. If it’s precious to you, make habit of removing your jewelry when swimming, showering or in the sauna. Consider removing when exercising as perspiration is slightly acidic + over time can build up on the surface of your jewelry.
Always remember to remove your jewelry when you visit the hair dresser. Especially important if you color your hair, as those coloring agents are caustic to your jewelry.
If something looks delicate. . . it is. Please handle accordingly.
Always remember to put your jewelry on last when getting dressed. AFTER cosmetics, perfume, hairspray, lotions or other chemical substances that could be corrosive to the metal or stones.
Gently wipe your jewelry with a cotton cloth before storage. Store each piece separately in covered jewelry boxes or pouches to avoid tarnishing or scratching.
Of course, jewelry is meant to be loved + worn, just handled with care. With proper love, your Brevard jewelry will last generations.
STERLING SILVER
Over time, sterling silver achieves a beautiful patina as it mingles with the natural oils of your skin. We intentionally crafted textures that play with natural oxidation process in our designs. The recesses will darken + high points become brighter accentuating the texture + pattern of each piece. This is the beauty of sterling silver + why it is Brevard’s metal of choice. The patina is quite sexy.
Our recommendation is not to over polish + rather allow your pieces to weather + wear naturally. The more you wear your pieces, the more the oxidation mingles with the oils of your skin + creates a beautiful patina. Left unworn, silver may appear flat. The oils from your skin are a key element to achieving that lived-in glamor that we love.
You may use water with a little mild PH neutral soap + a cotton cloth or soft bristled brush for deeper cleaning. Dry thoroughly. For touch ups, a light sweep with a polishing cloth on the high polish surfaces, allowing the dark to remain in the crevices. Avoid using polishing agents which could strip the finish.
If you wish the original finish restored to your Brevard pieces, we recommend sending them to the studio as many of our finishing techniques are proprietary. Each request is handled individually, contact the studio for a project estimate.
ANTIQUED STERLING SILVER
Like your favorite pair of jeans, Antiqued Silver already has that laid back, lived in style, we are all looking for. It is effortlessly chic.
Best low maintenance advice, is simply to wear your jewelry. The oils from your skin will naturally mingle with the oxidation which creates a beautiful patina the more you wear it.
You may use water with a little mild PH neutral soap + a cotton cloth. Dry thoroughly + gently rub the surface with your fingers. For touch ups, a light sweep with a polishing cloth on the high polish points, allowing the dark to remain in the crevices. Avoid using polishing agents which will strip the finish.
OXIDIZED STERLING SILVER
Oxidation is a darkening process which creates an aged affect. Levels of darkness can range from light gray to deep black. It is not a permanent treatment + is expected to wear over time. While we love the shifting quality of oxidation, we can of course re-oxidize any design. Contact the studio to restore.
We advise allowing your oxidized sterling to weather + wear naturally. Avoid polishing cloths, solutions or compounds.
Most designs are available in oxidized silver, please contact the studio for more details.
18k GOLD
18k gold is 75% pure gold and offered in yellow, rose + white. Rose gold is achieved by increasing the copper + reducing the silver content. Our white gold is palladium based + contains no nickel. Yellow gold is a core metal in the Brevard collection.
Gold is chemically unaffected by air, moisture and most corrosive agents.
You may use a little mild PH neutral dish soap + warm water with a cotton cloth or soft bristled brush for deeper cleaning. Avoid using abrasive materials as it can scratch the gold unevenly. Be sure to rinse and wipe gently to dry after cleaning.
BLACK RHODIUM
Our black rhodium designs are sterling silver plated with nickel, gold + black rhodium. By its nature, it is transformative and will weather + wear overtime with a gorgeous metamorphosis of color. AVOID polishing cloths, solutions or compounds which will strip the plating. Instead allow it to do its thing organically.
If you would like to re-plate your jewelry please contact the studio.
PLATINUM
Our platinum is 95% platinum, 5% iridium. Platinum has an ageless beauty, it does not tarnish or require cleaning.
All of our earring designs incorporate a 14k Gold hoop or post back with butterfly clutch. The white gold we use is Nickel free. Also, we do not use Cadmium, or Zinc in our Yellow Gold, Sterling Silver and solder. If you do have allergies and need something different, please contact the studio, we are happy to discuss recommendations.
PRECIOUS + SEMI PRECIOUS GEMSTONES
Always take care when using polishing solutions on jewelry containing gemstones. Avoid extreme temperature changes and contact with household chemicals. Never expose stones to hot solutions, abrasive cleaners or ultrasonic cleaners. A non-abrasive jewelry cleaner should be okay for most stones, but for home care, we prefer a little water with a little mild PH neutral soap and a cotton cloth.
Please note that Pearls + Turquoise require extra special care to help preserve their natural beauty.
Most designs are shown online with a neutral stone to make it easier to imagine color, please contact the studio for additional gemstone options.
PEARLS
Pearls are mesmerizing with their natural luster + require special care to preserve their natural beauty. No two pearls are alike, which is part of their allure. We work with natural Akoya, Keshi, Tahitian, Freshwater and South Sea Pearls in our designs.
Pearls should be the last thing you put on + the first thing you take off. After wearing, wipe with a soft cotton or chamois cloth dry or lightly moistened. This will prevent dirt from accumulating and keep perspiration, which is slightly acidic, from eating away at the pearl’s surface.
NEVER use a commercial cleaner or ultrasonic. Do not steam clean. Avoid all contact with hairspray, perfumes, lotions, creams, ammoniated liquid, nail polish remover, detergents, powder cleaners, baking soda or chlorinated water. Ammonia will deteriorate pearls. Never use an abrasive. Avoid wearing with rough fabrics as they may scratch.
Pearls maybe washed in water with a few drops of a mild PH neutral soap and a soft cotton cloth. Be sure to rinse, pat gently + lay flat to finish drying on a soft towel. Do not hang to dry. Store in a pouch for protection. If you follow these guidelines your pearls will stay gorgeous for decades.
TURQUOISE
Like pearls, turquoise requires special care to preserve their natural beauty. You may gently clean with water with a few drops of mild PH neutral soap and a soft cloth. Be sure to rinse and wipe gently to dry after cleaning. Avoid all contact with hairspray, perfumes, lotions, creams, ammoniated liquid, nail polish remover + chlorinated water.
CUBIC ZICORNIA
With a superior ability to refract light that plays magically with the rough hewn textures in the Brevard collection, high quality Cubic Zirconia (CZ) has an illumination quality that sparkles like no other stone. Be aware not all CZ stones are created equal and we only choose superior quality stones. CZ should be treated like all natural semi precious + precious stones in terms of care.
Most designs are shown online with a neutral stone to make it easier to imagine color, please contact the studio for additional gemstone options.
We take immense pride in our quality and craftsmanship, some of which is unique to the Brevard studio. For this reason, if your Brevard is ever in need of repair, restringing, alteration, restoration or cleaning we strongly recommend that you send it to the studio to maintain the integrity of the design and your investment.
Repairs may take up to 12 weeks depending on the nature of the work. Standard repair turnaround is usually 6-8 weeks for most repairs and 4 weeks is standard for most cleanings. Depending on the nature of the work, charges may apply, and we will notify you once we have assessed the project and prior to beginning the work.
Please email the studio to discuss your project. Include your name, address, phone number and briefly describe the nature of your request. Include a few photos if helpful. We will follow up with you to discuss your project either by email or phone. Allow 24-48 hours for a response, Monday through Friday.
SIZING
Meant to be worn snug around the wrist. The 7" is suitable for most women's wrist and 7 1/2" works for most men.
CARE
Hairsprays, lotions, colognes or perfumes can alter their natural finishes and are best avoided. Remembering to remove your beaded bracelets while sleeping, showering, exercising, or in a pool or sauna will preserve your bracelet. Being natural porous materials, gemstone beads can be highly sensitive to water and water temperatures. These same elements can weaken the elastic cord that holds your beaded bracelet together, which may contribute to breakage in the future if not cared for properly.
ALWAYS ROLL your beaded bracelet on or off your arm, rather than pull, stretch or tug on the beads. Repetitive tugging and pulling can cause the elastic to weaken and break over time and should be avoided.
If you find your bracelet requires restringing, please contact the studio.
SPECIAL REQUESTS
Many of the gemstone and antique beads we choose have unique and organic qualities, which makes our many of our beaded bracelets designs one-of-a-kind, or some-of-a-kind. We receive many requests to customize beaded bracelets and would love to help create a piece that suits your style. If you see a certain charm, color and/or bead combination that you would like together please contact the studio.
SIZING
Offered in 7" or 7 1/2" - your choice when ordering. Meant to be worn snug around the wrist. The 7" is suitable for most women's wrist and 7 1/2" works for most men. The sizing can be adjusted by roughly 1/4” increments if needed, please contact the studio to discuss.
CARE
ALWAYS ROLL the bracelet on or off your arm, rather than pull, stretch or tug on the beads.
Repetitive tugging and pulling can cause the elastic to weaken and break over time and should be avoided.
Remember to remove your Nugget Bead Bracelets while sleeping, showering, exercising, or in a pool or sauna, which can weaken the elastic cord that holds your Bracelet together, which may contribute to breakage in the future if not cared for properly.
If you find your bracelet requires restringing, please contact the studio.
Charms are not currently available for purchase without an earring hoop or a pendent jump ring.
Light weight, delicate and versatile. An effortless component of your everyday style. Composed of thin tubbing and pin that locks the hoop closed, our 14k Gold Endless Hoops are strong, but like all delicate jewelry the hoops do have their tensile strength limits and should be handled accordingly. The iconic Endless Hoop was first introduced into the collection in 1979.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR ENDLESS HOOPS
STEP 1 - With the hoop between your fingers, close your eyes and run your fingers along the hoop. Notice how the pin (narrow) section is thinner than the tubing (wider section)? Now open your eyes.
STEP 2- Next open the hoop. Find the narrow section of the hoop (the pin) and GENTLY spread the hoop between you thumb and forefinger side to side open. The hoop is flexible but will not withstand being stretched or yanked open. Allow the pin to sit next to the tubing (wider section). Close your eyes and run your fingers along the hoop again. Do you notice the difference? Familiarize yourself with the feeling of a properly latched hoop and how an open hoop feels. Understanding these subtle differences will help once the hoop is in your earlobe.
STEP 3 - Find the narrow section of the hoop and GENTLY spread the hoop between your thumb and forefinger side to side to open. Once open, slide the pin over the earlobe into position and thread the narrow pin of the hoop through the front of the hole. Once the pin is through the hole, using both hands, slip the pin into the back of the hoop to lock it. In the beginning, it may take a few tries to get used to, but soon it will become a breeze. Confirm the hoop is closed by running it through your thumb and forefinger.
Periodically slide your fingers over the hoop to confirm the hoop is latched properly – especially important to double check if you sleep or exercise in your earrings. With proper handling and care, our endless hoops will be trouble free. Many of our customers have been wearing the same hoops every day for decades.
ENDLESS HOOP EXCHANGE POLICY
Many of customers have been wearing the same hoops for decades, so when someone expresses having trouble with one, we ask to review their hoops to try figure out why. And would rather replace an Endless Hoop than lose a favorite charm. Inspect your hoops regularly, if at any point one gives you concern, please send it to the studio for review.
To take advantage of our Endless Hoop Exchange Policy the old hoop is REQUIRED. Without the old hoop a replacement hoop will cost full retail. You may purchase a new Endless Hoop from our online shop by clicking here.
Simply send the old hoop in an ordinary envelope via US Mail. Please keep the charm safe with you, just send the hoop. Tape the hoop to a piece of paper with your return address, email, and phone number. In the United States, there is no charge for shipping on a hoop exchange.

If you find you need to purchase a replacement, please contact the studio. Available in 16", 18" and 20" lengths in sterling sliver or 18k gold.
How a ring fits varies throughout the day. This is normal. Fingers naturally fluctuate with our activities, diet, mood and weather. You will not have a 100% perfect fit 100% of the time. The aim is the majority of the time your ring feels comfortable - not too tight or falling off. Every person has their own preference for the feel of the ring.
We count you as a partner in getting the correct size for made-to-order jewelry.
DETERMINING YOUR RING SIZE
Complimentary finger sizing is available when you visit the studio or one of our trunk shows.
For online orders, please visit your local fine jewelry store and ask for a sizing. It is a trade practice to offer this service for free.
To ensure your fitting is correct, please consider choosing a time when you:
• Have not recently exercised
• That you have no alcohol in your system (including from the night before night)
• Have not recently eaten an overly salty meal
• And are not especially hot or cold for any reason
Keep in mind, rings are sized to your current measurements, not for anticipated weight-loss or gain. Our finger sizes change throughout our lives, and is completely normal.
We do our best to respond to inquiries as quickly as possible. Sometimes, we do need a little extra time, please allow up to 48 hours for a response, Monday through Friday.
