"I am in awe of Rocks Pebbles Stones! I love the diversity and the quality of the pieces. I admire the designer's ability to travel the world and handpick unique stones and pendants which become my one of a kind necklace. I am constantly complemented & asked where I get them. More than anything I love when I see necklaces at places like Nordstrom & Saks of far lesser quality for much higher prices! Love it!!!"

"I have more Rita’s than I can count. Really. She just keeps getting better and better. I bought my first piece (#69 - yes, they are one-of-a-kind, and numbered) about seven years ago. I have been the bane of trunk show hostesses ever since - showing up 30 seconds after the trunk show begins, swooping in, claiming (at least) three pieces and packing my prizes away before the canapés are out, leaving poor Rita to try to fill in the gaps I created. At least there is no fighting over pieces, am I right? I have never, ever made a purchase I regretted. She has an amazing eye for arranging, to the point that I am constantly discovering new, delightful details about items I have owned for years. Her items are more durable than some I have bought (used to buy, before her) from big name stores with initials like NM, and from other "competitive" jewelry designers. Run, don't walk, to the next Rita trunk show you are invited to. Don't worry about me - I'm running out of space :-)"

"I have been a devotee of Rocks, Pebbles, Stones' unique, original designs since the beginning (or "for years"). Each piece is my favorite when I wear it; evoking a mood, season or fond memory. Whether eclectic, classic or boho style, I always receive many compliments when I wear my RPS jewelry."

"My RPS jewelry are my favorite 'go to' pieces. I love the color and beauty of the stones. The designs are works of art that I get to enjoy every time I pick them out to wear."

"I adore the fabulous necklaces that I have bought from Rocks, Pebbles, Stones! They are exquisite and unique and I love that each stone, jewel and piece of metal has a story that is brought to life by Rita's expert craftsmanship. I know I will get compliments when I am wearing a "Rita"."

"I own several of Rita’s necklaces and bracelets, and I love that each one has its own special one-of-kind story. Her sophisticated and creative designs, a mix of semi-precious stones and beads from faraway places, are just gorgeous. Whether I am looking to make a bold statement with jewelry or just wanting to add that little something extra to jeans and a t-shirt, I find that I reach for my RPS pieces more than any other jewelry I own."

"Rita has an incredible talent for hand crafting original jewelry which are absolutely exquisite & beautiful! Each piece is uniquely inspired by her exposure to so many cultures around the world. Everywhere I go, I seem to be complimented on my jewels."

“When someone complements my jewelry I feel flattered because it is truly special, genuine, unique, beautiful and always brings the colors and a design that stands out in a natural, classy and unique way. I always say Rita's jewelry is special, and always is 'one of a kind'. Each piece of jewelry that I chose from Rita's collection feels only mine, it defines me, what I like and who I am. And...there is only one like mine, the one Rita made, almost for me and therefore is the one that only I wear.”

"Rita’s designs collections are inspired by her travels. What I like most about her designs is that they reflect that inspiration and evoke a place, a culture, an experience. Whether it is Turkey or Kenya, the stones are authentic and the result is unique. In addition, each collection is different and I can always find a piece to match my mood or the occasion. I get compliments on the necklaces very often and I am not the only person to have someone want to buy it off my neck (really, I have seen it happen with other people)! It also makes me feel that I am current in terms of style because my college age niece swipes necklaces from me. The ones I have “given” her are among her most prized possessions."
