Nature's Gems
A bit of nature in every piece
Nature’s Gems was launched by local artist, entrepreneur and  
New Hampshire native, Wendy de Pénasse in March 2007.  
Wendy’s inspiration for Nature’s Gems came while visiting family
in Brazil where she found striking jewelry and gemstones at
Feira Hippie, a popular outdoor market in Ipanema district in
Rio de Janeiro.  Building on the beauty she found, Wendy
designed and created her own jewelry showcasing these elegant
treasures.  Combining the simple beauty of the gemstones,
Wendy’s gift for creative design, and with her husband’s
encouragement, Wendy took a chance and began importing
Brazilian gemstones.   And thus, Nature’s Gems was born.   

Nature’s Gems is a simple yet elegant line of jewelry created
from all natural materials such as semi-precious stones, sterling
silver and wooden beads. Each piece is a unique, handcrafted
work of art that makes the transition from everyday casual to
special occasion with ease.   Wendy continues to seek new
ideas, designs, and materials as she expands the range of her
jewelry collection.
