Is Panetta jewelry real?
1 Answer
Yes, Panetta jewelry is real jewelry created by a real company. It is considered fashion jewelry or costume jewelry, however, as it is not in the fine jewelry category. Pieces are typically made of sterling silver or gold-plated metal and set with rhinestones and crystals. Artisans craft much of Panetta's jewelry by hand to ensure quality. As a result, Panetta has become a popular brand for those looking for well-made costume jewelry. Shop a diverse assortment of Panetta jewelry on 1stDibs.
