When the Brockway Mountain Pendant at Beth Millner Jewelry caught my eye, I was instantly captivated. Not only is the pendant itself stunning, but Brockway Mountain reminds me of Copper Harbor, one my favorite places in Michigan.
Copper Harbor embodies a certain kind of magic. The town itself is charming and the outlying area boasts pebble beaches, rugged Lake Superior shorelines, world-class mountain biking, and fantastic camping with dynamic woods and wildlife.
My personal “must dos” when going to Copper Harbor are: staying or dining at Fitzgerald’s “The Fitz” Restaurant and Hotel, stopping at The Jampot to buy some monk-made victuals, hiking to Horseshoe Harbor, and taking a trip up Brockway Mountain Drive. The 9 mile drive ends at a breathtaking vista that overlooks Lake Superior and thousands of acres of forest.
Beth’s designs perfectly capture the natural beauty the Upper Peninsula has to offer. The Brockway Mountain Pendant is no exception. A large Michigan Greenstone rests in a copper mountain, perfectly contrasting a brass, radiant sun. It is a true statement piece and I relish the weighty feel of it on my chest. I am delighted every time I put it on.

My wife picked out the ring while on vacation in Marquette area. Had it “put aside” while she thought about how bad she wanted it. Gonna surprise her on Sweetest Day—
Every thing is great so far-I’ll let you know the outcome...
All of your jewelry is beautiful. Nice to have a piece of home
Everything about it is wonderful
Beautiful picture
Love the design and the size. Perfect.
This charm is very nicely made and a very beautiful design.
This ring for me gives me a peace of MQT summers, of the lush greens and full trees. Beth is able to share so many of her local experiences into her jewelry which I can appreciate. Leaves me peaceful...
I was raised in the U.P. and have a deep love of Lake Superior and agates, and many of my family members on my mother's side worked in the copper mines. (Plus Beth and I are both alums of NMU.) When I saw this pendant, I realized that not only did it look beautiful, but it represented so much of who I am.
When it arrived, I was stunned at how beautiful it is.
I have a number of other Beth Millner pieces, all of which I love, but this one is particularly special. I have a chain from the shop, but can't help but think that a braided copper chain would be a perfect match.
Every time I look down at this ring on my hand, I feel transported into a favorite place, the rustic U.P. woods: surrounded by green leaves & branches galore. The double band combined with a twig-like appearance really catches my eye, with a natural greenstone front & center. Well done BMJ team!
