Meridane Design Jewelry Review & Giveaway (ENDED)

Winning comment is #93!

Before I begin my review, I must first say that I actually did not really grasp the full concept of Meridane Design until I received my pendant to review. Then when my pendant arrived and I looked at it closely in person, I finally understood the amazing design behind it. I ended up loving it so much that I plan on ordering one for DD for her next birthday.

So, here's an image of the pendant I received to review. At first glance, it looks like a pendant with a cool design on it and it looks chic enough for day to day wear.

But, you see, it is no just a chic design. It is actually a design with a message embedded into it. If you look at the chart below, the center image is the same design as the pendant. Ok, got that? Now, look at the different ways the entire alphabet is embedded into the deign. By tracing out different lines, you can spell out different words. Of course, I am sure that the most common phase people would like to spell out is probably "LOVE." But, really, it could be so much more meaningful than that. I can totally see myself giving a pendant to DD with a poem about how much we love her. With the pendant, she can spell out the entire poem on it and wear it close to her heart. How awesome is that!

The design is genius! No, really, I really do mean it. I love things with hidden designs so I am completely in love with the pendant I received to review. Furthermore, the pendant is beautiful, so even if other people have a hard time seeing the design behind it all, it is still something I would love to wear.

Besides pendants, the company also offers bracelets and earrings with the same amazing design. To buy one for yourself, please go to Meridane Design to make your purchase.

Many thanks to Dane of Meridane Design for generously offering a giveaway prize to one of my lucky readers. The winner may choose from a pendant, bracelet or the earrings (excluding the gold pendant and sterling silver cuff). This giveaway is open to US residents only please.
