CYNDI - CUSTOM ORDER


This is a bespoke piece. I've been hoarding these moonstone chicklets for a while and decided to use them when I received a request for a white and red necklace to go along with black and white polymer clay lentils.  I've used garnet and mystic quartz rondells to form a little bouquet in between the moonstones.  Sterling silver findings.

KASSIE BL853-12 S$90 OOAK SOLD

Continuing with the lovely cool weather - "the kind of weather you'd rather chill to than work"- I too have been working full speed.  With several wedding orders to complete, anxiously awaiting supplies to be delivered, I de-stress by creating new pieces.  Here, I've used baguette cut amethyst brios.  What I love most about these baguettes that I purchase are the bevelled edges.  Precision cut, these beauties are extremely lightweight - just 9 carats and measuring 23mm x 6mm, I've also selected dainty square cut earposts.  These precious lovelies have a drop thats slightly under 5 cm.

MOLLY BL851-12 S$50 SOLD

We're finally experiencing cooler days.....to a point.....rain/sunshine/rain/sunshine and then rain again whilst we sleep.


The glorious sunshine makes photo taking for me that much easier.  This afternoon I took photos of this pair of earrings that I completed after lunch.
Featuring lavender tone polymer clay smooth drops - measuring approx 20mm x 12mm - crowned by a mix of pink and purple amethyst, deep red garnet, shaded green tourmalines, carnellians and lemon quartz.

SELENA BL845-12 CUSTOM ORDER


The new owner of AILENE requested a 2 layered necklace that she could wear with the earrings.  I've used soft pink rhodochrosite smooth nuggets, swarovski coral tone glass pearls and faceted pink chalcedony wheels plus the gorgeous polymer clay in 2 shapes - round and lentil - and the little bunches of rondells similar to the ones used in AILENE.

AILENE BL844-12 S$50 SOLD


We've had hot, sweltering, humid days out here in Singapore.  Our Summer?  Could be.  We have perpetual tropical summery-y weather all year round but the months of May/June/July tend to be really hawt!  All our flowering plants are thriving and in full bloom - hibiscus, bougainvillea, alamandas.......flowers unique to our hot weather.  That has surely inspired me to do up a cheery flowery inspired pair of earrings.  Like a light yellow vase bursting with yellow, orange, pink, cream and blue flowers.  The polymer clay beads measure approx 13mm and the carnellian, topaz, lemon quartz rondells measure between 3 - 4 mm.  A tiny swarovski palest of pink cube separates the rondells from the clay beads.  Total drop of: 4.5cm

HEIDI BL843-12 S$50 SOLD

It's high noon out here in sunny Singapore and like most days these past couple of months, its a scorcher!  Nice light breezes can be felt but generally hawt!


I'm not really complaining though.........just stating a fact.........not complaining because the sunlight is my ally in photography.


This gorgeous pair of handmade polymer clay brios measuring 18 x 12mm are in gorgeous shades of blue and green.  As the brios on their own are so pretty, I've just complemented them with peridot,turquoise,aquamarine, amethyst and topaz rondells.  Total drop of this pair - 4cm

STACIE BL842-12 CUSTOM ORDER

Jade is enjoying a new wave of popularity.  It is a stone of choice and is being used in more modern and trendier jewellery pieces than it used to be.


In this creation I've used a dark Burmese jadeite pendant for a centerpiece on a necklace of coral rondells and raw emeralds (mineral beryl).  


The actual colours of the stones are as seen in the two smaller photos.  The photo of the necklace worn was taken under filtered sunlight and I don't like the yellow tinge that comes with it.   Necklace ends with a gold filled chain at the back of the neck.
