Great product descriptions.
I am trying to write descriptions for vintage-inspired jewelry and words “pleasing, graceful, shapely, lustrous…” are those I’m looking for.
Do you have any descriptions for Indian jewellery?

In reply to Briana Blair. Briana, lovely to hear how helpful you found this post! I love words and descriptions too. :) Here on JMJ we have a section with about a dozen posts on writing descriptions for jewelry (and other handmade products): Writing Product Descriptions. Hope this helps, and happy wordsmithing! :)

This might be the single most helpful article I’ve read lately about how to describe handmade items. I love that you gave so many examples. Do you have another post somewhere with more synonyms and engaging words? That part of this piece was more informative than all the other stuff I’ve stuffed into my brain about “engaging copy.” Thank you so much!

Although I often get pressured by time, or feeling lazy,but when I apply myself what I try to do is pretend that the customer can’t see the piece I am describing and try to sell it through my words. When I get into it it can actually be fun. I am glad that I have found your site. Another perk of belonging to the the Flourish group.

In reply to Sophia. Hi Sophia, if the dictionary and thesaurus weren't helpful in defining the essence of these words, why not base it on what those words make you feel? For example, when would you say "elegant" instead of "beautiful" when talking about a piece of someone else's jewelry? I suggest that you go to Pinterest and look at jewelry photos. Practice coming up with one word to describe each piece of jewelry. Then notice what seemed "elegant", "chic", "lovely", etc. to you, if you used those words. If you didn't use those words, then jot down the words you did use. You may discover that "elegant", "pretty", etc. aren't words you use when you talk about jewelry.

I am trying to write jewelry descriptions for my jewelry but would like someone to explain “beautiful”, compared to “elegant”? Or “chic” to “lovely” etc..? I have gone through the dictionary as well as the thesaurus and not sure as to what defines each. Any help would be appreciated.

As an engineer, word creativity is not my forte. I am a “state the facts and only the facts” kind of person, so this tutorial was extremely helpful. Thanks much!

I have to admit writing copy for my jewelry items is by far my least favorite part of my jewelry business… and that includes the techy stuff (which I actually enjoy).
However, this article has great reminders of how to bring life to our pieces through the perfect choice of words. I forever use my thesaurus, but the words you’ve shown as examples here will really help me expand the imagery of my designs. I will for sure be marking this page as a favorite and I guarantee I will be referencing it often!
Thank you SOOOO much!!!

Chelsea, I am teeming with gratitude. Your colorful approach to writing (apparent in this article) has encouraged me and refreshed my approach to Etsy descriptions. Thank you for reminding me that I’m never confined to the predictable BLP! I’m enthused to begin applying these solid tips on how to make my content “engaging, entertaining and effective” as you mentioned above. All the best to you!
