  • Stickers

    If you’ve ever smiled at the little sticker pack tucked inside your order—we’re so glad you noticed! What started as a small, seasonal extra has grown into something more. Over the past year, our seasonal sticker collections have become a signature part of the Chadds Ford experience—a moment of surprise and delight, a tiny keepsake, and a quiet expression of the care we pour into every unboxing. Customers write us just to say how much they love them. Some collect them. Others gift them. A few have even framed them. So today, we’re celebrating these little pieces of joy—one season at a time.

  • Daisies

    Simple, cheerful, and quietly elegant, daisies have long symbolized innocence, renewal, and joy. They bloom where the sun is strongest—thriving in wild meadows, sidewalk cracks, and backyard gardens alike. Daisies feel like childhood summers, like warmth without effort, like beauty that doesn’t need to announce itself. At Chadds Ford Jewelry, we’ve always loved the daisy for what it represents: a soft kind of strength, a playful kind of beauty, and a light that lingers long after the season ends. This summer, we’re celebrating all of that with four distinct daisy collections—each one offering its own take on this beloved bloom.

  • Stars, Hearts, and Birdies

    From Memorial Day through Labor Day, red, white, and blue are everywhere—stitched into flags, spread across picnic blankets, twinkling in fireworks against the night sky. These colors don’t just signal a season; they stir a feeling—festive, familiar, and full of light. Inspired by that spirit, we’re thrilled to introduce three new stud collections that reimagine this iconic palette through the natural beauty of crushed gemstones. Each pair is crafted from solid sterling silver and finished with rhodium plating for lasting brilliance. Crushed and set in resin, the stones—deep red cinnabar, luminous mother of pearl, and bold blue lapis lazuli—bring rich color and organic texture. Whether worn individually or styled together, these designs offer a clean, modern nod to a timeless summer story.

  • Butterfly Blog

    Few symbols are as universally loved—or as quietly powerful—as the butterfly. Associated with change, hope, and the delicate unfolding of life, butterflies have long held a place in art, story, and jewelry alike. Their graceful movement, gossamer wings, and fleeting presence remind us of what it means to grow, to let go, and to find beauty in every stage of becoming. Our Butterfly Collection celebrates these themes with three thoughtfully designed pairs of sterling silver studs, each capturing a different expression of this beloved motif. Whether you're drawn to simplicity, movement, or depth, there’s a butterfly design here for you. And with today's highly anticipated restock of all three styles—plus two special bundles—there’s never been a better time to add these pieces to your collection or gift them to someone cherished.

  • Hummingbird Collection

    Light as a whisper, swift as a heartbeat—hummingbirds symbolize joy, freedom, and a love that moves with grace. They appear, shimmer, and vanish, leaving behind a breath of beauty and wonder. In many cultures, they are messengers between hearts and worlds. This collection was born from that spirit. Each piece captures not just the likeness of the hummingbird, but its resilience and emotional presence. From sleek sterling silver studs to rich vintage styles, every design reflects a different facet of this remarkable bird. Some pieces are quiet and classic; others, intricate and evocative. All are meant to be more than accessories—they are wearable echoes of nature’s most enchanting marvels.

  • Evergreen Collection

    There’s something enduring about evergreens. They whisper of stillness, resilience, and quiet beauty—whether standing alone on a windswept hill or gathered together in a snow-dusted grove. In every season, they offer a reminder of strength, serenity, and deep-rooted presence. There’s a reason we return to evergreens, again and again, in our designs. They don’t just symbolize endurance—they embody it. They’re unchanging when the world feels uncertain. They thrive through harsh winters, boiling summers, and the quiet seasons in between. With the Evergreen Collection, our goal is to capture that sense of quiet strength and constancy—something to wear not just for its beauty, but for the meaning it carries. In this post, we explore the Pine Cone Collection, Daytime Pine Tree Collection, Pine Branch Collection, and Whispering Pines Collection—each showcasing its own distinct expression of evergreen charm.

  • Rustic Wedding Blog

    As wedding season returns in full bloom, there’s something undeniably charming about rustic, countryside celebrations. Whether it’s the soft sway of linen dresses, bouquets wrapped in twine and wildflowers, or golden hour vows beneath a canopy of trees, these weddings are steeped in warmth, intimacy, and natural beauty. For many couples, the details that surround the ceremony—the quiet moments, the heartfelt gestures, the meaningful keepsakes—become just as memorable as the day itself. And when it comes to celebrating your wedding party, the right token can carry that feeling forward. With that in mind, we’ve gathered four of our most beloved floral-inspired designs—lilies of the valley, cherry blossoms, heirloom roses, and heart leaves—each perfectly suited to the charm and romance of rustic wedding style.
