One of the questions I get asked most is about the gemstones in my pieces. Why jade? Why turquoise? Do the stones have special meaning?
I love this question because it gives me the chance to share something that matters deeply to me: I use gemstones because they are beautiful creations from God—not because I believe they hold any spiritual power. My faith is in Jesus Christ alone.
That said, there’s something genuinely wonderful about understanding the materials that make up your jewelry. So let’s explore the gemstones you’ll find in Creations by Seay pieces and what makes each one special.
Jade is one of the most recognizable gemstones in the world, known for its rich green hue and incredible durability. In many cultures, jade represents beauty, purity, and grace. In our pieces, jade brings a natural elegance that pairs beautifully with gold stainless steel. You’ll find jade in several of our bestselling bracelets and earrings.
Pearls are formed when an irritant enters an oyster—and the oyster responds by creating something breathtakingly beautiful around it. If that’s not a picture of how God works in our lives, I don’t know what is. Our Biwa pearl focals and rice pearls add luminous beauty and organic texture to each piece.
Turquoise has been treasured for thousands of years for its distinctive blue-green color. It’s one of the oldest known gemstones and appears throughout biblical history in the region. In our pieces, turquoise stones bring a pop of color and a connection to God’s beautiful earth.
Several of our bracelets feature African recycled glass beads handcrafted in Ghana. These beads are made from recycled glass bottles, ground into powder, and reformed into beautiful beads using traditional methods passed down through generations. Each bead is unique—just like you.
All of our metal components are made from 316 surgical stainless steel with real 18K gold plating. This means they’re hypoallergenic, won’t tarnish easily, and are safe for sensitive skin. Beauty shouldn’t come with discomfort.
Every material in a Creations by Seay piece is chosen for two reasons: it’s beautiful, and it’s quality. Any meaning or power in our jewelry comes from the scripture each piece is named after—and ultimately from the Lord Himself. The stones are simply a reflection of God’s creativity and the beauty He placed in this world for us to enjoy.
That’s the beauty of faith-based jewelry: it’s not about what you’re wearing. It’s about what it reminds you of.
