Status: online 		I have three new beauties and more on the way!

The rich earthy tones of this necklace of Chinese Jade and Petrified Wood are accented by one of my hand crafted lampwork glass organic beads.  Copper and sterling silver along with coppery Czech glass complete the accents and add a richness and feel of luxurious earth.

Copper and sterling toggle closure is secured by sterling wire guardians to protect the bead wire and the sterling crimps are covered with sterling crimp covers.

This is one of my favorites right now!

Then there is this fun beachie keen turquoise


Beach Walk

Turquoise Rondelle saccent a beautiful lampwork seascape bead. Petrified Wood along with beautiful cone shaped shells hang from a Viking Knitted to add just the right touch of balance.   Israeli Silver end caps and a hammered Sterling toggle are the perfect accents to complete the piece.  I also use sterling wire guardians at the closure to prevent the wire from rubbing against the jewelry findings and sterling crimp covers over the sterling crimp beads.

Abalone Spirals

Shimmering silver lined abalone colored seed beads with spiraling fuscia make up the base of the three focal beaded spirals and perfectly match the whole Abalone shell accents.  They are set off by two huge Swarovski Crystals, pearls and Bali Silver cones.    A Sterling Silver toggle closure connects the piece.
The necklace is 25 inches long.  The beaded center spiral is 6 inches long and the side focal beaded beads are 3 3/4 inches long each.  Sterling wire guardians are in place to insure that the wire will not be rubbing against the clasp and sterling crimp covers conceal the crimp beads.

They are all headed to my website tonight!  Thank you for looking!

Status: online 		Thank you all!  I am very happy with them and have a huge focal that's almost as big as a silver dollar that I'm using next.  I just picked up some stones to go with it!  I'll make it tonight or tomorrow...

ArtistDonna, I'm probably not going to list them on Etsy. 

If anyone wants to know why I am not selling on Etsy at this time shoot me a pm or email.  I prolly have to clean out my private messages though! 

Donna, thank for the pimping!  I need it!

Status: online 		Thank you Carolyn!   I have a gorgeous necklace featuring a silver dollar size focal that I made but I might not get to finish it today. I'm searching for my findings!

Little hint...it's very very earthy.  I think that's what I'll name it!
