White Black Buckeye

The Crystal Buckeye Company's buckeye pendant is 10 plus grams of sterling silver (925) made from a mould from a real buckeye approximately 1 inch in diameter. The silver is then covered in rhodium for extra brilliance. Hand set into the buckeye are around 350 pieces of AAAAA (highest quality) cubic zirconia. White Black Buckeye

One can buy all kinds of buckeye jewelry but have you ever seen a crystal buckeye? That was the question that inspired the crystal buckeye design. A buckeye tree was planted in our yard each year as our son, Dan, received a letter for playing football at The Ohio State University. We now have three huge buckeye trees and tons of buckeyes. We used these buckeyes as moulding shapes to make the sterling silver and cubic zirconia covered buckeyes.

A toothpick, glue and rhinestones were used to see what they would look like. That took an entire day.

This led to hiring a master jeweler who could handcraft our vision. We chose different colors for the body and eyes of the buckeyes. The bail was chosen so any silver chain could fit through it, and it carries the mark ( )-our secret. White Pink Buckeye

But the real purpose behind creating buckeye bling was to support the non-profit charity, “Beyond The Goal Line”. It’s purpose is to carry on the promise that The Ohio State University makes as in “summer’s heat and winter’s cold, how firm thy friendship Ohio.”

A charity that understands when the football game playing days are over and real life storms hit, there will always be a helping hand for it’s football players from “Beyond The Goal Line.”
