Some Chandelier Earrings...


 f r i t i l l a r i a



i r i s 

I was looking through my old Flickr photos recently and realised that I haven't made any of these styles for quite a while. So here are the lastest incarnations ~ Fritillaria and Iris! The Fritillaria ones are made with citrine, scapolite and amethyst, and the Iris pair are tanzanite, sky blue topaz and amethyst. Both styles are quite lightweight, being mostly made up of gemstones and chain. I have kept my usual touches of wire-wrapping to a minimum on these, so as not to overshadow the lovely sparkling stones. More of these to follow in the coming weeks :)

The Carmine Bracelet


 c a r m i n e

Another addition to my collection of dainty gemstone cluster bracelets! This one is done all in gold with ruby rondelles. I also have a turquoise one to list, but it was too dark to photograph when I finished it, so that one will be added tomorrow.

Delicate Cluster Bracelets

f r o s t e d

Following on from the Frosted necklace I made the other day, I decided to make some bracelets in the same kind of style. Here are the first two, using crystal quartz and chrome diopside rondelles. I have some fancier versions planned with mixed gemstones and will post them here on my blog when they're finished.

The Alchemy Necklace


a l c h e m y

It's been a while since I posted anything new ~ I have been busy designing, but not actually doing much making! I do have a few new things lined up for this week though. First off is the Alchemy necklace! It's really a fancier version of this one which was very popular this Spring. I've carried on the linked beads all the way around instead of using chain and have added some clustered rondelles to the pendant. Plus, I've used a mix of dark oxidised silver with touches of bright gold and some absolutely gorgeous gemstones (London blue quartz, pink amethyst, rutilated quartz, pyrite and tanzanite).
