Judith Jack Jewelry started thirty-five years ago as a company that traded in antique and estate jewelry. The owners, Judith and Jack Rosenberg, noticed that their best sellers were pieces that had marcasite in them. Marcasite, a mineral mined in South America is also known as iron pyrite or “Fool’s Gold” due to its resemblance to gold. When cut into facets, the stone gives off a bright metallic luster making it ideal for use as a gem in jewelry.

During the Victorian Era, fashionable ladies adorned themselves with pins and pendants made up of marcasite stones set in sterling silver. Marcasite jewelry reached the height of its popularity during the Art Deco period when the Flappers used these jewelry favoring geometric and animal inspired designs.

The company reached a turning point when the antique marcasite pieces became short in supply due to high demand. Thus, they decided that their new Judith Jack Jewelry Collections would include replicas that they themselves manufacture.

Each piece in the Judith Jack Jewelry Collections is handcrafted allowing them to produce intricate designs with close attention to detail. Each marcasite piece used is pavé set between silver beads to enhance its brightness. Aside from the replicas of antique designs, contemporary and classic designs were also added to the Judith Jack Jewelry Collections. New designs are regularly added to the collection to keep up with customer’s changing tastes.

Both practical and ornamental, pins have been used starting from the Early Bronze Age by the Romans and the Greeks. Aside from holding clothing together, the design would also indicate rank and identity of the wearer in those times. Nowadays, pins are still in use but more to add color and style to an outfit.

Judith Jack silver jewelry should never be exposed to elements like salt water, chlorine, soap and perspiration. Thus it is advisable to remove one’s jewelry when taking a dip whether in the beach or a swimming pool. Avoid leaving your jewelry on while also in the shower or bath.

Regular cleaning your Judith Jack silver pieces with a soft cloth is advisable to avoid build up of oxidizing elements.

For stubborn dirt that cannot be wiped off or reached by a cleaning cloth, one can do the following steps:

1. Line a bowl with aluminum foil and fill it with half a quart of hot water.
2. Dissolve one tablespoon of non-bleach washing powder.
3. Leave the silver jewelry in the solution for about a minute.
4. Rinse with running water and air dry.

The boric acid in the washing powder will produce a reaction that makes the tarnish or dirt attach itself to the aluminum foil.

For more stubborn dirt, soak your Judith Jack silver longer in the solution and use a soft toothbrush to loosen the dirt. Rinse with clean water and dry or repeat the process if necessary.

When your Judith Jack silver jewelry will not be worn for a long time, it should be wrapped in a soft cloth and placed in an airtight container. Mere contact with air and other elements will cause the jewelry to tarnish even when not in use.

As each piece is lovingly handcrafted, the same care should be applied during daily use. To maintain the luster and shine of your Judith Jack marcasite jewelry, regularly clean it with a soft cloth. It is best to do this daily after taking off the jewelry at the end of the day. Avoid contact with cosmetics such as hairspray, lotions, perfume or soap. Thus it is advisable to always apply make-up or spray on perfume before putting on jewelry.

For a more thorough cleaning, a quick dip in warm soapy water and wiping off with a clean cloth is recommended. The piece should be completely dried at the end of cleaning to avoid moisture.

Avoid the temptation of cleaning your Judith Jack marcasite jewelry with ammonia, other chemicals and cleaning agents. Neither should the marcasite be soaked in water. Do not attempt to remove stubborn dirt with a steamer, hot water, or an ultrasonic cleaner. It is recommended to email Judith Jack customer service at (repairs@judithjack.com) for cleaning or repair requiring professional help.

All Judith Jack marcasite jewelry is under a one-year warranty form the date of purchase. More specific warranty terms and conditions are included in the container together with the product.

These were held in secret as they were under persecution from the Roman Empire during those times.

Popular Judith Jack bracelets are the charm bracelets, link bracelets and bangles.

One has the option of buying charm bracelets and charms separately for a customized design, or buying a Judith Jack bracelet already adorned with several charms.

Link bracelets are so called because of the various materials whether similar or of different make are connected together to form a bracelet. Examples of Judith Jack bracelets in this style are the Judith Jack Night Serenade, the Judith Jack Art Deco Style Marcasite Link Silver bracelet, the Judith Jack Double Faux Pearl Strand Silver Bracelet with Marcasite Flower, the Judith Jack Faux Pearl and Marcasite bracelet, and the Judith Jack Marcasite Beaded Diamond Cut Sterling Silver Bracelet.

Bangles are bracelets more solid in form and can either be smooth, set with stones or have designs that add texture. Fans of this style like the tinkling sound made while moving one’s arm when two or more bangles are used. Judith Jack bracelets in this style include a Marcasite Sterling Silver Bangle Bracelet wherein half of the bracelet is polished sterling silver while the other half is studded with marcasites studded in a twirling fashion. A more simple design is the basic Judith Jack Marcasite Bangle which is thinner and a single line of marcasite stones are set in sterling silver around the bangle. The Judith Jack Marcasite Line Bracelet has more heft, with square crystals alternating with the dark marcasite set in sterling silver.
