Fabergé Egg of Life Necklace

I created this necklace a few months ago and misplaced the images in my computer. Well, I finally found them and posted the necklace! I love the pendant, it really reminds me of Fabergé Eggs (which I was privileged to see in California Exhibit a few years ago). As soon as I got this pendant from my supplier, she informed me that they'd been discontinued, so I couldn't get any more. So this is it! Absolutely unique due to the fact that I'll never be able to make another! ;)

Escape of the Seahorse

I made two more historically accurate necklaces yesterday (I was excited and had the supplies on hand), but the weather has been too dark to take pictures. So instead I went back to a necklace I made a few weeks ago but hadn't gotten around to listing on etsy. It's a Glass Seahorse pendant I got in Maui, and Labradorite and Freshwater Pearls :)

Historically Accurate Jewelry

I've been meaning to create a historic jewelry piece for a while. Well, I found this gorgeous portrait of Elizabeth Brydges, Queen Elizabeth's handmaiden, dated 1589. After doing a lot of research, I recreated it!


Something that bugs me about the SCA is that most people are all about being historically accurate down to the hat and shoes, but forget about the jewelry. Historic Reenactors wear no jewelry, wear modern jewelry, or wear indian tribal jewelry no matter what they're wearing. So finally here's a piece of jewelry that actually compliments a person's garb :) (TMI about the SCA?)

Gold Dipped Rose Leaf Necklace

Just in time for Valentine's Day, this a real Rose Leaf that's been dried, then dipped in 24k gold. I used my favorite 6mm gold freshwater Pearls, 4mm bronze freshwater pearls, and sublte yet elegant 6mm pale gold translucent Czech faceted beads. I really love this necklace, and debated whether or not to put it up for sale. Buy I'm determined not to hoard the things I love the most, so here it is for you!

Bacchus - God of Wine Necklace

SOLD!
This newest necklace is made with Deep Blue Freshwater Pearls, Labradorite and Sterling Silver Seed Beads. The Grape Leaf pendant is also the clasp, and I love how it turned out!

Contest

A list I created for a contest over at Etsy. Items you might give to someone for a housewarming present :)

Fuschia And Rose

I'm a redhead so I don't wear pinks very often, but I found this amazing rhodonite focal stone and several beads that matched it exactly and went where the piece took me :)

Love of Ra

SOLD!
This is a delicate 18 karat gold and pearl necklace with swarovksi crystals. I made it a couple weeks ago, but didn't post it because I was waiting for a completely sunny day to get good pictures. It's been overcast here for a while, so I just decided to bit the bullet, do the best I can with the picture, and take better pictures later when the sun comes back.

In the Dipped Leaf Tradition...

SOLD!
I love these Dipped Leaves, they just look so delicate, but they're strong and gorgeous.

Queen Titania Necklace

This is a great necklace made up entirely of Sterling Silver and Swarovski Crystals. It's always amazing how much of a difference the best materials make in the final product :)
