Our collection includes Sterling Silver necklaces, 18k Gold-accented necklaces, handmade chain-link necklaces, layering chains, pendant chains, sculptural links, gemstone necklaces, enamel necklaces, and bold statement chains.
Unlike mass-produced chain, many Bowman Originals designs feature individually fabricated links and distinctive handmade clasps, giving each necklace subtle variations and a character unique to jewelry made by hand.
Our chain and link designs range from substantial, sculptural links intended to make a statement to more refined chains designed for layering or pairing with pendants. Select pieces incorporate 18k Gold accents, genuine gemstones, diamonds, custom-cut stones, and kiln-fired vitreous enamel.
Whether worn alone, layered together, or combined with a meaningful pendant, a Bowman Originals necklace is designed to become a personal part of the wearer's story.

By Hands Only — The Bowman Originals Difference
In an increasingly digital world, some traditions are worth preserving. At Bowman Originals, our handmade jewelry is crafted by hands only—without computers or CAD/CAM manufacturing. Designed and handcrafted by DeBeers award-winning jeweler Ned Bowman in our Sarasota, Florida workshop, each piece is created using traditional Old-World bench techniques and the tools, skills, and imagination of the jeweler.
From Sterling Silver and 18k Gold to gemstones, diamonds, handmade links, custom chain designs, and hand-fired vitreous enamel, our artisan jewelry reflects the subtle individuality and character that only the human hand can create.
It is a tradition of craftsmanship we have proudly preserved since 1970—creating meaningful jewelry designed to be worn, treasured, and passed from one generation to the next.
At Bowman Originals, jewelry is designed to be more than an accessory. Each piece reflects a balance of artistry, craftsmanship, symbolism, and timeless design —created to have meaning for the person who wears it.
