AUBREY BL176-10 S$45 SOLD




Tiny freshwater pearls cascade down matte gold, textured leaves before ending above 11mm x 11mm lemon quartz smooth brios. Lovely earposts with sterling silver posts hold up this lovely lemon and fresh cream creation. Aubrey would mean blonde ruler in French and the lemon and gold components definitely do this name proud. Drop of approx 4.5 cm

JACQUI BL175-10 CUSTOM ORDER


A custom order featuring the gorgeous pink chalcedony faceted brios and this time around embellished with rubies, peridot, chrysoprase and mystic citrine faceted rondells. Light matte gold earwires secure these beauties to your ears. Drop of 4.5 cm.

GAIA BL174-10 S$60 SOLD




A bit corny but because of the gorgeous greens indicating new life, fresh foliage....I've decided to name this pair Gaia, the personification of Earth in Greek mythology. Gaia is the Greek version of Mother Nature.

The gemstones featured here are shaded prehnite - these are a light green bordering on blue, lemon quartz and a sprinkling of very light aquamarine - land, sea and sky!

Smooth, emerald green hydrothermal quartz 11mm x 11mm hang off gold filled chains laden with 3 - 4 mm rondells. Total drop of 4 cm.

These are late night photos and the colours of the rondells aren't showing up as they should - shaded blue/green prehnite, soft lemon quartz and even softer aquamarine.

UPDATE:

The collage features a set of daytime photos. Only marginally better. Still unable to capture the overall 'feel' of the rondell cluster but the new owner knows I won't disappoint =D

JANELLE BL173-10 SOLD

Very delicate, ultra feminine, simple and elegant. A 16" Italian 925 sterling silver very delicate snake chain and a petite, approx 2.5 cm smooth green onyx elongated brio, wireworked with serlling silver wire. Total length of pendant, including bail is 3cm. Only if you're into charmingly pretty, petite jewellery.

SHENISE BL172-10 CUSTOM ORDER

A request for a pair of earrings with the gorgeous lapis briolettes used in the wedding set, but this time with just moonstones.


PS - I still have a few custom orders in the queue.....if you haven't heard from me/seen any photos its only because I'm awaiting 'supplies' to complete your orders. I haven't forgotten any of you......I do subscribe to the 'old school' style of pen and notebook.....so everything's down on paper. Have a great weekend!

CATHERINE BL171-10 CUSTOM ORDER


The beauty of good quality labradorite ..... no need for words.

ROSÈ WINE BL170-10 CUSTOM ORDER

Blush pink chalcedony briolettes and rondells and gold filled wirework and chain....intoxicating!

ROSÉ - PRIVATE ORDER


I just love this line of pink chalcedony that I purchased recently, I can't stop thinking up designs to use them up. This is the colour of pink table wine.

For someone who isn't a fan of "Over the top" jewellery, this is a perfect creation.
Almost translucent, light rose pink, juicy, faceted, chalcedony briolette, embellished with sterling silver wirework and threadled through a simple sterling silver chain.

Light pink roses depict joy, passion, youth, energy....
Touché!

GRACIE BL169-10 CUSTOM ORDER

LILIANNA BL168-10 S$55 SOLD

Whopping faceted, translucent, pink chalcedony briolettes measuring 2 cm x 1.8 cm and elegant, etched, single petal lily pad earposts. Drop of ± 4 cm.

These brios are stunning on their own and I decided not to embellish the set but to leave the beauty of the stones to shine on their own.

ps - Don't judge the briolettes by the pictures I've posted. Whilst I love the wet, cool weather we're experiencing, I am not so thrilled with the lack of sunlight which is a great help in my photo taking.

CAYLEE BL167-10 S$60 SOLD

Chrysoprase is a very rare form of quartz. Its most striking attribute is its beautiful color, that of a green apple. However it also comes in a very dark green. Chrysoprase contains traces of nickel; the nickel that is found inside the Chrysoprase is what gives it its color.

One of the more popular places to find Chrysoprase is in Australia where it is mined (Queensland, Western Australia). It is usually sold as Australian Jade, due to its resemblance to this gemstone.

In this simple creation, I've left the beauty of the green to be admired without over embellishment. Shaded chrysoprase rondells and blue flash moonstones trickle down a sterling silver chain and end just above the milky apple green briolettes. This arrangement drops @ 3.5cm. The earposts measure 1.2 cm in diameter.

3.18.2010

ANNE BL166-10 S$45 SOLD


Simply....ANNE! Slightly 'hammered' Queen of spades earwires and 8mm x 7mm, onion shape green amethyst faceted brios. Drop of slightly under 3.5 cm. Goldfilled wire work.

LE PETIT BL165-10 PRIVATE ORDER

This is a lightweight, petite pair of earrings featuring a gorgeous textured pair of earposts, approx 1 cm in diameter and smooth, 8mm x 7mm deep maroon garnet brios.
This pair drops at 2.5 cm.

One exclusive pair. No repeats.

APRIL BL164-10 CUSTOM ORDER


She says she'll be wearing a simple black tube which I like to call a LBD.....for a function this weekend. This somewhat matches a pair of earrings she'll be wearing.

Faceted opalite coins, vermeil gold bead caps, large moonstone rondells for spacers and a cluster of pink tourmaline, amethyst, garnet and freshwater pearls. Emerging shyly from this cluster is a little 'petalled' pendant which is the same 'theme' as the earring posts I used for her earrings.

Towards the back I've used small, smooth moonstone beads and finished it off with a vermeil toggle.

3.15.2010

PEACH MOUSSE BL163-10 S$60 SOLD


These smooth banded agate elongated brios are the last of a strand that I purchased. This pair is the shortest of the lot, measuring approx 2.5 cm. I've kept it relatively petite by using studs instead of wires. Faceted, slightly shaded carnellian rondells give a little color to these translucent drops. Total drop of the earrings is approx 3.5 cm. Lightweight.

CYNTHIA BL162-10 CUSTOM ORDER

Just like the refreshing, sweet, thai dessert called Red Ruby, these delicious plump ruby briolettes are showered with blue flash moonstones and ruby and garnet faceted rondells. Square matte, brushed silver earposts add that touch of classic elegance. Drop of 3.5 cm

MISSY BL161-10 CUSTOM ORDER

Lightweight and elegant, champagne rice pearls are teamed with tiny smooth aventurine beads dangling off 'brushed' heart earposts.

The second pair features the deep green freshwater coins used in OCEANIA but here they stand alone and hang off flower earposts. I've embellished the earposts with a faceted round prehnite for the flower centre.

KARA BL160-10 CUSTOM ORDER FOR FW


A fluorite cocktail and goldfilled garnishing. The buyer liked the colors used in 2 previous creations and requested a mid-chest lariat style necklace. Gold filled chains, wire and a non-tarnish natural brass toggle for the metal findings.

3.11.2010

OCEANIA BL159-10 S$35 SOLD


Whilst I welcomed the overnight showers we enjoyed the previous night and look forward to more rain, it has put a dampner on my photo taking.

Deep green freshwater coil pearls approx 13mm in diameter with a beautiful luster. The pearls are nicely formed too.

They are suspended from champange rice pearls which have a little cluster of shaded green grossular garnet rondells. Total drop length is 4cm.

Added in a new collage of photos because many people were seeing the pearls as black !! Trust me the coins are a deep lush green and the rice pearls are champange whilst the rondells are green grossular garnet.

Inspired by FLUORITE BL155-10 a request to have a charm style necklace using some of the components of the fluorite bracelet. I've used fairly chunky Vintaj, natural brass chain and a mix of fluorite, amethyst, rose quartz and mystic quartz gemstones + a carved vermeil lentil, polymer clay pillow and a lovely CZ studded filigree leaf. Ends with a non-tarnish, natural brass floral toggle. Pretty.

Velvet ribbon + carved quartz rose added before mailing :D

DUDEN BL156-10 S$60 SOLD



Like the gorgeous Duden waterfalls in the province of Antalya, Turkey, this pair features shades of blue/blue green/turquoise. Suspended from hand forged oxidized sterling silver earwires, elongated chalcedony faceted briolettes measuring approx 3cm and crowned by ripples of rondells and brios made up of apatite, moonstone, aquamarine,labradorite and onyx. Total drop of this pair is 6.5 cm. The photo set of the earrings in the hanging position give a more accurate interpretation of the colors of the stones used.

FLUORITE BL155-10 S$65 SOLD


A glorious bracelet comprising fluorite, pink amethyst, mystic quartz, purple amethyst, opalite, gold filled chain and a lot of elegant charm. Measuring approx 7" this ends with a 24k gold vermeil toggle.

3.05.2010

AMY BL154-10 S$60 SOLD

Smooth jasper flat drops separated by light natural agate and a filigree flower to add a little item of interest and then ending with smooth Vintaj chain links. Total length of approx 25". Ends with a toggle.

CHANTEL BL153-10 S$70 SOLD


For a slight deviation to my norm, I decided to do a lengthy gemstone necklace instead of having this worn closer to the neck 'collar' style. Smooth, top drilled, ametrine and translucent faceted, irregular shape rose quartz. Chunky, but not necessarily heavier than usual, Vintaj natural brass, textured chain is used to create the extended length. Approx 31", this ends with a toggle. Versatile in that it sits nicely under a shirt collar and won't dress down the corporate look whilst at the same time would look equally good with an out of office garment as seen in the photos above.

3.04.2010

ROSALINE BL152-10 S$155 SOLD


Thunder and darkened skies promise long awaited showers. Waiting with bated breath.....

This glorious creation though, hardly reflects dark skies or gloomy weather. A hot pink, faceted quartz briolette measuring approximately 15 x 10 mm is garlanded by a sweet bouquet of pinks in various shades and in various stones - pink tourmaline, garnet, chalcedony, mystic quartz, freshwater pearls.....I've used 14/20 gold filled rolo chain, and spiced this up with microfaceted diagonal garnet cubes and further up the chain, 4 mm garnet rondells. Except for the vermeil ball head pins, all other metal components used are gold filled.

3.03.2010

VIVIENNE BL150-10 S$40 SOLD

Re-visiting my Vintaj findings and admiring the excellent finishing and color tone. I decided to create a pair of earrings with an 'aged' or antiquated feel about it. I've chosen translucent soft mint faceted onion, scalloped lace vintaj natural brass bead caps, etched hoops 21mm in diameter and cascading from brass hooks, tendrils of pink and purple amethyst, pink freshwater pearls, light prehnite rounds, moonstone rounds and vessuvianite rondells. All metal findings are Vintaj original. Total drop of 4.5 cm.
