PEWTER
We carry Talisman pewter, some of the best pewter you can buy. It is 100% lead free and hold it’s shine. When all of the other bead vendors buy Talisman, you know it’s good stuff. We carry shades of gold and silver.
Spacer beads and toggle clasps are packaged in tubes, (very handy storage) and prices range from $2-$3 for the small tubes and $5-$10 for the large tubes.(Hint: Keep one bead in the tube when you’re finished with the Tube. There is a product number on it and it makes it easy to reorder and remember what you were using!)
And let’s not forget Green Girl Pewter. Green Girl offers very unique focal pieces. Pretty cool!
SEMI-PRECIOUS STONE
Lava, garnet, lapis, African opal, turquoise, amethyst, crystal quartz, jasper, shell, abalone, citrine, magnesite, pyrite, Oh, I don’t want to leave out my favourite, smoky quartz. That’s not all; the list goes on and on. If I don’t have what you’re looking for, I can probably get it from my friend, Steve, who has every gorgeous stone dug out of the earth.I am always looking for good deals on stone. If I find a good buy, you get a good buy.
PEARLS
I carry all kinds of pearls, because I completely love them. The luster is mesmerizing, even the tiny seed pearls (1-2mm). Add the coin, keshi, stick, faceted and mabe pearls in all colors, and you’ll find a pretty impressive inventory in all price points. We have one of the largest displays of freshwater pearls in Pittsburgh.Oops! I almost forgot about the glass pearls. We have lots of sizes and colors.

PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY
Have you ever looked at a photo of jewelry online and wished your own jewelry could look that good? I know I have, so I teamed up with a friend of mine, Melissa Distel, who is a local photographer. We came up with some beautiful photographs that can be used for internet or print publication.
We have pick-up and drop-off on Mondays. Simply stop in Zelda’s with your jewelry and take a look at the different packages we offer. Leave your jewelry with us and come back the following Monday to pick up your jewelry and photographs on a disc.
It’s really easy…and good photographs will boost your sales!
