Lavender Lampwork Earrings, Turquoise Spring Summer Handmade Jewelry

The "Lavanda Primaverile" handmade earrings feature two sizes and colors of beautiful artisan lampwork glass beads - unique jewelry for women.

Like a breath of sweet spring air, the LAVANDA PRIMAVERILE handmade dangle earrings are perfect to wear all spring and summer long. Jewelry with exquisite colors, the one of a kind earrings feature two kinds of artisan designed glass lampwork beads and sterling silver. The larger lampwork glass beads were individually artisan handmade with a base of turquoise blue. While the glass was still in its molten stage, a glass frit of lavender purple and shades of green was added, looking like lavender flowers peeking through green leaves against a turquoise blue sky. The finish of the beads is high glossy shine. A sterling silver daisy spacer caps the top and bottom of the lampwork beauties.  A smaller translucent lampwork bead sits on the larger glass bead, complementing it perfectly. The color is a soft lavender purple which highlights the lavender in the larger bead. The glass beads, also individually artisan made, have a matte sea glass finish which allows them to glow stunningly.  A single sterling silver daisy spacer sits on top of the glowing bead along with a 3 mm sterling bead. Two links of sterling box chain were added to provide a huge amount of flirty movement when worn. Sterling silver French hook earwires finish the lovely earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the LAVANDA PRIMAVERILE earrings were created for the woman who adores lavender and loves wearing one of a kind artisan jewelry. “Lavanda primaverile” is Italian for “spring lavender.”

Brown And Red Wood Dangling Hoop Earrings, Retro Style, With Sterling Silver Ear Wires, Gift For Women

 Brown Wood And Red Resin Hoop Earrings

The Singing Beader 

The combination of wood and resin are a newer trend in handmade jewelry components. The lower part of the hoops in these earrings are natural wood and the upper part is a dark red resin. They are lightly varnished. Above the hoops, I teamed a wired section of matte brown glass beads and dark red faceted Czech glass beads. The beads match the hoops remarkably well. I'm glad I looked over my bead stash to find them! 

The Czech beads give the earrings a hint of sparkle that will make them quite noticeable to onlookers. The earrings have sterling silver French style ear wires. Included are rubber clutches for a secure hold.

Despite being made partially of wood, these earrings are super lightweight making them comfortable to wear. They would make a lovely gift, too. Included is a brown organza pouch.

The earrings appear larger in photos that actual size because they are photographed close up. Please view all the photos including those showing size details with a ruler and coin.

Earring length from the ear wire: 2 3/4”

Wood and resin hoops: 28 mm x 28 mm x 3 mm

Matte brown glass beads: 8 mm

Dark red Czech glass beads: 3 mm x 4 mm

These are one of a kind earrings. You will love having a pair of earrings no one else has!

Viking Horse Necklace, Sleipnir Scrimshaw Onyx Norse Handmade Jewelry

The unique "Sleipnir" horse necklace features a Viking inspired polymer clay horse head pendant, black onyx discs and sterling silver - one of a kid jewelry for women.

Perfect jewelry for the woman who loves horses and has more than a bit of Viking shield maiden in her, the SLEIPNIR handmade pendant necklace will surely draw attention whenever it is worn. The one of a kind necklace features a fiercely regal looking, artisan polymer clay horse head pendant, black onyx discs and sterling silver. The unique necklace is named after the eight-legged, stormy gray horse that the Norse god Odin always rode into battle.  Odin and Sleipnir also made frequent journeys through the Nine Worlds which were held in the branches and roots of the world-tree, Yggdrasil. The horse head pendant was hand sculpted from off white polymer clay to mimic carved bone scrimshaw.  To bring out the amazing details of the fierce face of the horse and his mane covered arched neck, a slate gray paint was added and then quickly rubbed off, leaving the paint in the recessed areas. A bit of light brown paint was added to "age" the pendant even more. The back of the pendant has a unique dragonscale design. Two heavy duty sterling silver jump rings secure the pendant to the main body of the necklace.  To perfectly complement the horse head pendant, two sizes of glossy black onyx discs were used. Five groups of three larger discs are found at the front of the necklace, each group separated by a 3 mm sterling silver bead. A fancy sterling silver melon bead separates the larger onyx discs from the smaller ones at the back. Groupings of the smaller discs are found on each side of the necklace, also separated by sterling silver beads. Since the black onyx discs were hand cut, they are very similar in size and shape but there are also some slight variations. The necklace is finished with a sleek sterling silver toggle clasp set. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the unique SLEIPNIR horse pendant necklace will be a wonderful gift for the woman who loves Viking mythology and regal horses.

The horse head pendant is artisan made from polymer clay to look like old bone scrimshaw.

Here's the important information for the SLEIPNIR horse head pendant necklace:

• Viking horse head polymer clay pendant: app. 75 mm x 35 mm at widest (3.0” x 1.4”); artisan handmade by Nicole St. Laurent
• Large black onyx discs: app. 11 mm x 5 mm
• Small black onyx discs: app. 6 mm x 3 mm
• Metal: sterling silver
• Clasp: sterling silver toggle clasp set
• Length: app. 18.25” / 46.4 cm
• Pendant drop: app. 3.25” / 8.3 cm including sterling jump rings

Pantone Colors of the Year

Thought I'd share this in case you follow Pantone's Color of the Year.  This year they chose two colors.  Can't say I'm much impressed with one of the two colors.  The "Illuminating" yellow is bright and cheerful.  But I'm so tired of grays like their "Ultimate Gray."  To me gray is depressing.  Have seen so many people the last several years painting the walls of their rooms gray.  Ugh!  After a year like 2020, I want FUN color!  Maybe it's just me . . . LOL!

I do find, however, MANY of the Pantone colors for Spring and Summer to be fun and cheerful!  Here's a link to see the full collection:

Dog Cat Paw Prints Hearts Earrings, Copper Red Aqua Handmade Jewelry

The adorable "Best Buddy" earrings feature artisan copper paw print in hearts charms with red and aqua amber faceted Czech glass beads - dog and cat lover jewelry.

If you are looking for a meaningful dog or cat paw prints and hearts jewelry, look no further than these adorable BEST BUDDY earrings! A perfect jewelry gift for the dog and cat lover, the one of a kind earrings were created with copper paw print on heart charms and two colors of faceted Czech glass rondelles. The oh-so-fun copper square-shaped charms were individually artisan made from beginning to end with pure copper. The design is a raised paw print in a recessed heart. The area around the hearts is also raised, adding wonderful texture. To add a rustic look, the charms were given a dark patina, polished to bring out the detail and then sealed. They have a beautiful copper glow that photos can never show. Since the dog and cat lover charms were individually artisan created, as you can see in the photos, they are very similar but not exactly the same. To add a rich look and a pop of color to the overall earrings design, two colors and sizes of faceted Czech glass rondelles were used: red beads and aqua / amber beads. Since they are both faceted, subtle sparkle is added to the design. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BEST BUDDY earrings were created for the woman who loves unique artisan jewelry and loves her dog (s) and / or cat (s), especially if the four footed buddies are rescues.

*** Please note: When sold, one half (1/2) of the purchase price of the BEST BUDDY earrings will be donated to an animal rescue group to care for the four footed souls waiting for their furever home.

Inca Cross Necklace, Leopardite Jasper Pearls Chakana Handmade Jewelry

The "Chakana" pedant necklace features a leopardite jasper Inca cross, pearls and copper - meaningful gift for women.

The CHAKANA cross pendant necklace is a meaningful jewelry gift for the woman who adores unique crosses. The handmade necklace features a spotted leopardite gemstone Inca cross, glowing brown freshwater pearls and copper. The Inca cross (also called a chakana) is a stepped cross made up of equal arms indicating the cardinal points of the compass and a superimposed square creating twelve corners. Used by Andean cultures from as far back as 600 BC, the chakana was worn as a talisman, as jewelry, woven in textile designs and used as architectural designs. The Spaniards quickly co-opted the Inca cross and it used to help convert the indigenous people to Christianity. The Inca cross (which I bought in Cuzco, Peru, many years ago) is carved from leopardite jasper, a gemstone with natural leopard-like spots. The base stone is usually a light beige color with darker brown or grayish spots. As you can see in the photos, the chakana is two-sided with a unique spotted design on both sides.  To perfectly compliment the colors of the Inca cross, glowing copper brown freshwater pearls were used. The colors shade from a rich, dark copper brown to a lighter golden copper brown with a high sheen. Since the pearls are freshwater, they are not perfectly round as the photos show. Most are somewhat oblong while some have ridges and bumps, normal for freshwater pearls and adds great texture to the overall design.  A copper s-clasp set with raised granulation on both sides securely finishes the necklace. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the CHAKANA cross necklace is a meaningful gift for the woman who loves to wear one of a kind cross jewelry.

• Length: app. 18.75” / 47.6 cm

Dragonfly Boho Earrings, Pink Yellow White Lightweight Handmade Jewelry

Colorful "Danza Libellula" handmade earrings featuring artisan dragonfly dangles, raspberry red lampwork beads and faceted Czech glass beads - lightweight boho earrings for women.

Cheerful and colorful with a pair of dancing dragonflies, the DANZA LIBELLULA handmade boho earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who loves the amazing creatures. Lightweight to wear, they feature artisan polymer clay dragonfly teardrops, artisan lampwork glass beads and faceted Czech glass along with lead free pewter bead caps and sterling silver. The dragonfly dangles were created individually from white polymer clay in an upside down teardrop design. The dragonflies are raised against the background for wonderful texture and then were hand colored in joyful shades of bright pinks, sunny yellows, sky blues and leafy greens with some of the white base showing through to highlight the colors. The sides and the smooth backs of the teardrops are yellow. Since the teardrops were individually handmade, they are very similar in design but not exactly the same. To perfectly complement the exquisite dragonfly teardrops and to add translucent glow and subtle sparkle to the overall design, raspberry red lampwork beads and faceted Czech glass were used. The lampwork beads were artisan handmade from clear glass with a raspberry red frit added to give a speckled appearance. Because the glass is translucent, the glow they provide is amazing. A leafy lead free pewter bead cap tops the lampwork bead. Sitting on top of each lampwork bead is a pale yellow Czech glass bead. Since the beads are faceted the sparkles and shine with sunny translucency. Both have the same leaf design bead caps on the top and bottom. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DANZA LIBELLULA earrings are perfect for the woman who loves dragonflies and one of a kind boho style jewelry. “Danza libellula” is Italian for “dragonfly dance.”

Tree of Life Sun Spiral Necklace, Rose Quartz Rustic Handmade Jewelry

The unique "Arburu de Vita" handmade necklace features a handmade Tree of Life pendant and faceted rose quartz nuggets - symbolic jewelry for women.

Stunning with its artisan handmade, hand painted tree of life pendant and faceted pink rose quartz nugget gemstones, the one of a kind ARBURU DE VITA necklace is a beauty you’ll want to wear over and over again. The eye catching necklace features a rustic pendant created from off-white polymer clay. Borrowing on an ancient symbol found through the history of mankind, a Tree of Life design with leaves and a spiral shaped root is raised against the background. Added above the tree is a hand formed rayed sun. Hand painted in rich colors of aqua turquoise, pink, lavender, purple and bits of brown, the colors settled into the recessed areas and the “cracks.” To add a rustic vibe, the Tree of Life pendant was lightly sanded with fine grit sandpaper on the tree and around the edges to let bits of the off-white base clay to show through. The back is also painted. To perfectly complement the Tree of Life pendant, faceted rose quartz nuggets were used. The colors shade from a pale pastel pink to a medium pink; some nuggets are translucent while some nuggets are opaque. For the most part, the nuggets are longer than wider, and, since they were hand cut, each nugget is different, adding wonderful texture to the necklace. Because the rose quartz nuggets are faceted, unexpected sparkle is added at each movement when the necklace is worn. So the necklace drapes beautifully when worn, each nugget is separated from its neighbor by a small sterling silver bead adding bits of silver glow. A sleek sterling silver toggle clasp set finishes the design. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the unique ARBURU DE VITA necklace is a perfect gift for the woman who loves the symbolism of a Tree of Life and adores wearing one of a kind designer jewelry. “Arburu de vita” is Corsican for “tree of life.”
