Starfish and Black Jasper necklace

This fun necklace is made of black jasper chips, sterling silver beads and a Paua Starfish Pendant.  It measures almost 20 inches plus a 1.5" extender finished with an accent jasper chip.  The sterling silver clasp is an easy-squeeze kind, where you squeeze both raised parts to open the clasp (no messing with finger nails).  All metal materials are sterling silver except for the tiger wire (coated cable) used to string the beads on.  The starfish pendant is definitely coated in some sort of acrylic material that sort of magnifies the paua shell, and it measures approx. 1.5".  You can wear the necklace two different ways as shown (untwisted and twisted).  SOLD

Blue dichroic glass earrings

I made these cabs from translucent dichroic glass, then used my grinder to create a lip around the glass.  I hand-wrapped sterling silver wire around the glass, and made three loops from which hang many glass and sterling beads as well as some Swarovski crystals.  Two of the dangles are also handmade.  These earrings measure almost 3.25" from the very top of the earwire hook to the bottom of the longest dangle.  SOLD

 

Some of my latest work (SOLD).  The first is made of yellow turquoise and gray shell (poor lighthing, sorry). The middle picture is a confirmation gift.  I made the pendant of PMC (fine silver clay), designed the dove, cut it out of the clay, stamped the word FAITH in it, and fired it in my kiln.  I also added a white coin pearl and chrysoprase bead.  The last photo is a pair of earrings I made with PMC (the bottom rings) and gray/purple coin pearls.  Click on photos to see more detail.

Blue chalcedony earrings

This pair of earrings is one of my favorite creations. Composed of sterling silver, they include faceted stones of Peruvian opal, carnelian and blue chalcedony. They measure 1.4" from top of ear hook to bottom of blue drop.

Silver and Smoke earrings

These earrings were handmade by me out of Art Silver Clay with the lower areas accented in black.  The edges have a rough appearance, and I hand wrapped the drops with sterling silver wire.  The faceted smoky quartz drops are light enough to make these earrings go with any outfit. SOLD

My Own Private Island

When I saw this pendant, I was immediately taken to the ocean on my own private island. I searched for beads to compliment my island and found a beautiful shade of amazonite that looks like pieces of the sea. I then created two silver PMC globes, made to look like little earths, to symbolize traveling the world. So come sail away and drink up the sun with your own island!

Materials used: agate, amazonite, pure (.999) silver, sterling silver. SOLD (with some customization)

Dark green and gold dichroic glass earrings

These beautiful earrings are made of dichroic glass with a copper gleam to them, fused on top of dark green glass that is sparkly (like glitter in the glass). The dark green looks almost black if you block the light from shining through (ie, if you have long hair). I ground a lip/ridge around the glass in which I wrapped gold-filled wire to attach the gold-filled french hooks and copper colored Swarovski crystals.
The earrings measure approximately 3 inches from the top of the french hook to the bottom of the crystal. $25 SOLD
