The business was started by two families back in 1946, and De’S has been a fixture in the Valley ever since. They offer a large selection of wedding and religious jewelry, bracelets, necklaces, and pendants; plus watches, clocks, and other special gift items ranging from crystal and brass to pewter. De’S features one especially nifty item — a sterling-silver Hudson Valley Bead that’s a perfect add-on for the popular Chamilia customized bead bracelets. Each bead or charm is engraved with the words “Hudson Valley” on one side; there’s an apple, bridge, and sailboat on the other facets. A charm-bracelet version is available, too, in sterling or gold. We might not be able to wear our love of the Valley on our sleeve, but now we can on our wrists.
