ANEMONE BL2090-14 S$85 SOLD

This is the beautiful flower Anemone.

According to the Oxford English DictionaryGreek anemōnē means "daughter of the wind", from ánemosthe wind god "wind" + feminine patronymic suffix -ōnē.[4] The Metamorphoses ofOvid tells that the plant was created by the goddess Venus when she sprinkled nectar on the blood of her dead lover Adonis. The name "windflower" is used for the whole genus as well as the wood anemone A. nemorosa....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anemone.  

I love the vibrant purple.  In my creation of the earrings ANEMONE, I've teamed truly outstanding trillion cut amethyst brios with equally vibrant genuine malachite (vs laboratory created stones which are equally beautiful) teardrops.  The beauty of this set is the drilling of the holes in the brios.  I've used that to 'hang' these stones to show them off to the max.  Accompanying these brios are rondelles - pink amethyst/garnet/quartz/rubies.  

The earrings drop at around 58mm.

JOY BL2086-14 S$95 SOLD

Today has been a super productive day for me.  I completed many pieces which I had started on a couple of weeks ago for some custom orders and then whilst I had my rose gold wire out I decided to do up another necklace using that tone of wire.  I selected some irregular shape tourmalline nuggets and linked them all up with rose gold plated over sterling silver wire and added a lovely rose gold pave leaf connector.  Reall pretty combo.

Necklace measures approx 18"/46cm and the cubic zirconia pave leaf measures approx 3.5 x 1.5cm.

Coral brios measure 10mm
Drop from light peach earstuds to base of coral brios 5.5cm

HYACINTH BL2083-14 S$88 SOLD

It has been a challenge for someone like me who isn't very masterful when it comes to capturing close up shots of my work........anyhow, I think you'd be able to visualise this gorgeous pair better after I've described it to you.  Tanzanite (a gorgeous tone of purplish blue) tone carved quartz drops measuring approx 9mm x 17mm with a burst of rondelles in complementary tones - tanzanite, pink topaz, amethyst and smokey quartz - and a faceted aquamarine coin measuring approx 5mm.  This falls off a floral, cubic zirconia earstud.  Drop of 4.5cm.

Took a few more photos.  These are a clearer impression of the colours/stones used.
