Welcome to my shop.  I hope you like my designs.  I have always loved earrings and that's why, at the moment, that's all I design.  I figure most people are like me and have a favorite necklace or pendent that they wear everyday and maybe something for special occasions.   I like to change earrings the way I change the color of my lipstick; it depends on my mood and what I am wearing.  Earrings really are the finishing touch.  Most of my designs can be dressed up for that special occasion or dressed down and worn with jeans.  .  

I always say the colors and shapes of the beads are like my paints.  I use semi-precious stones, Swarovski crystals (which are the very finest Austrian crystals),  and sterling silver beads handmade in Bali.  Each earring is handcrafted.  Gold is available by special order.  I love creating and designing, so please bookmark my site and check back with me often for new additions or specials.  We gladly accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and US money orders.  Maryland residents will be charged 5% Maryland sales tax.    

Aycock Mertz Limited’s designs are in demand as special gifts and are worn by pre-teens to 90+ year olds. Some of  the designs have been worn to Presidential Inaugural Balls and have been seen on British television. One design was chosen for QVC’s Quest for the Best in which Aycock Mertz Limited earrings were among the 20 products selected as the best in the State of Maryland.  Another design is featured in the August issue of Victoria™ magazine.

Thank you for visiting.  Patricia Aycock Mertz
