Circle of Life Droplet Cane Glass

I absolutely love cane glass! These are from the renowned glass maker David Christensen. The Circle Droplet features onyx and sterling to set off the clear, black and white cane glass. People have asked me to do some smaller earbobs - here is a good example with just the cane glass, crystal and silver. Note: The Circle of Life necklace appears in all of the photos and is sold separately. Enjoy!

Happy Holidays

Serina

Serina began with the gorgeous handmade pendant. It was created using PMC (Precious Metal Clay). The carving of the woman is just lovely.
The braided Bali earrings support the jade and onyx dangles.
Necklace: SOLD
Earrings: $25.00

Angeleena

Angeleena started with a fabulous carnelian and sterling silver pendant. The asymetrical treatment of the design was done to provide visual interest since the pendant is also an uneven design.

The earrings repeat the simply black jade bead with an intricate Bali bead cap.

THE ENSEMBLE

~ Drama is the word here! The drama of the shape of the deep turquoise ceramic beads dotted with a bit of bronze make this an ensemble, which will certainly be a showstopper.

FEATURES

~ The beautiful ceramic beads are three different sizes; each one used creatively for balance, comfort and visual appeal. The whimsical bronze, amber and copper baubles made with cultured pearls add motion against the weight of the ceramic pieces. A sterling silver hook & loop supports the necklace (17.5”); A sterling toggle joins the ends of the bracelet (8.5”). The earrings on a simple shepherd’s hook are an 1.75”.

SPIRIT

~ Pearls which are throughout the ensemble, will help in …????? individual who wears it.
Wear this only if you have the time to stop and let people admire it!

Necklace: $80.00

Bracelet: $25.00

Earbobs: $20.00

Skies in the Mist Series I

Bringing shades of aqua and deep brown together created the "Skies in the Mist" Series. Here we have a briolette beautifully faceted as our focal point suspended on hard wire. The hammered sterling silver chain supports more than a dozen 'droplets' of aqua and smokey quartz. A sterling silver leaf hooks the piece together. Shown also is a swirly chandelier and an anklet. (NOTE) Please search on "Skies in the Mist" for other items that will compliment the dazzles you see here! And - always feel welcome to contact me - The Duchess of Diva's!

Shelbourne - Shells in Midnight Waters

Inspiration can come from many places. This ensemble was designed because of a shell button on a fun swingy shirt I bought. While the design is really simple - three strands brought together with a beautiful Bali silver toggle, it can be fun and flirty or quite elegant. The shell's natural color drew me to add amethyst and flourite with it.

Bracelet: $30

Autumn Rose

Autumn Rose - It almost goes without saying (but, saying is a must, don't you think?) the leaf pendant started the design. Then what fun! I found a new way to cluster the green rondelles and the necklace continued. The unikite stones here have predominently more salmon color than the mossy tones which have been used to bring out the green. Bali spaces add dimension.
Necklace measure 16.5" and can be customed longer. The bracelet is 7".
Additional earrings can compliment "Autumn Rose".

Bracelet: $25.00

Lemon Meringue with Chocolate Sprinkles

It's always fun to come upon something new. I just loved the color of the Peruvian Lemon Turquoise - it's full of matrix and the chocolate colored concave shells provide great texture as it separated the rectangles and the coin and pearls droplets. A textured Bali toggle finishes the piece.

Simple but eye catching large hoops support the coin shaped beads (on top). Threaders - a favorite of many of my "Diva's" also use the coin beads with just a touch of the shells. (When you double click on the photo you will get a much better view. However, I feel the color is this photo is much lighter that the set is in reality.)

Necklace: $70.00

Hoops: $20.00

Threaders: $15.00

Carmenira Ensemble

The red sponge coral prompted me to look for a proper name for this ensemble. Carmen means crimson and red, so alas! The Carmenira Ensemble was born. If you are unfamiliar with sponge coral the color has various grades of red hues; the stones are sometimes have little 'nooks and crannies'. The necklace is designed to be worn with the tassel dangling from the Bali toggle in front. The chandeliers on top are symetrical the ones on the bottom feature a larger bead in the center. The bracelet is weighted with the large flat bead at the end.

Necklace: $70.00

Bracelet: $30.00

Chandeliers: $35.00 each

A Turquoise Melange

This was so much fun to make! I started with an asymetrical turquoise focal bead. The rest just followed along! The mixture of the various shades of turquoise with the green jade appealed to me. Sterling silver clasp and Bali silver addes dimension. Plus the asymetry of all pieces was outside of my usual designs. Most fun to design - more fun to wear!
Necklace - $75.00
Bracelet - $30.00
Chandeliers - $35.00

Aubrey's Autumn

It will not surprise you that the inspiration for this piece is the beautiful pendant which is the focal point. To emphasize it, it's place on wire with my favorite clusters that play above it. Pearls, peridot, glass and silver all play a part in the very textural piece.

The hoop earrings are simple yet nicely compliment the neck dazzle.

Necklace: $65.00
Hoops: $20.00

Cloudy Skies

The stones in this piece are just gorgeous! I fell in love with the odd shapes and kept the strand hanging on my wall for the longest time. (So long, that I could not find the name of this semi-precious stone. Memory tells me it starts with an 's', but I don't recall it to be soldalite (although the color is very similar). Iolite rondelles form the rest of the necklace. The Bali silver earring posts and chandeliers add another special touch.
