Grit & Grace Studio is a woman-owned small business in Charleston, South Carolina that is centered on sustainability and spreading joy. Our family of empowered women (and a few gentlemen!) handcraft beautiful oyster ring dishes, Lowcountry jewelry, ocean-inspired gifts, and thoughtful keepsakes. We lovingly refer to this small collective of powerful, creative individuals as our family of mermaids.

The Gold Bug necklace was inspired by Edgar Allen Poe’s short story, “The Gold-Bug,” which takes place on beautiful Sullivan’s Island. The characters in Poe’s story go on an adventure searching for buried treasure, but our braided pearl necklace reminds you that your real treasure is your grit and ability to turn any hardship into a pearl on your own life’s adventure. 

The Gold Bug Long Pearl Necklace channels the signature elegance and grace of Sullivan’s Island, one of our favorite beaches in Charleston. A simple, sophisticated stand-alone piece, you can also layer the Gold Bug with your other favorite Grit & Grace Studio necklace for a more glamorous look.
