From the Nicole Barr website:
Using true vitreous enamel (hard fired glass) painstakingly applied by hand to 18K gold and sterling silver, our jewelry is complemented with the finest diamonds, pearls, and gemstones. Each design is handmade to order. Shipping is usually 3-4 weeks from our head office in Raleigh, NC. (International delivery may be slightly longer.)
Today, Nicole Barr provides top independent jewelers with quality enamel jewelry collections that discerning customers demand. There are no direct sales to the public or to national chain stores.
With 4 decades of experience as Original Design Manufacturers (ODM) we produce your own exclusive high quality designs with complete confidentiality. Our American-owned and managed factory operates using the highest ethical standards. To learn more, visit our Custom Design page and watch this video to witness the complete process in action.
