Dog Paw Print Necklace, Paisley Turquoise Magnesite Handmade Jewelry

The "Best Friend" handmade necklace features an artisan copper dog paw print pendant, turquoise magnesite ovals and copper - unique jewelry for the dog lover.

What a perfect jewelry gift for the woman who adores dogs! The eye catching BEST FRIEND handmade necklace features an artisan copper dog paw print pendant, turquoise magnesite ovals and copper beads. The one of a kind, slightly convex pedant was artisan made from beginning to end from pure copper A dog paw print is raised against the background. What makes the one of a kind pendant even more eye-catching is the unexpected paisley design in the larger metacarpal pad along with the four toe pads. The edge of the pendant is scalloped for even more interesting texture. To add a rustic look, the copper was given a dark patina, polished to bring out the detail and then sealed for many years of stylish fun. The pendant has a wonderful copper glow that the photos can never truly capture. The paw print design shows a bit through the back of the pendant, which also has a patina. Since the colors of turquoise and copper are made for each other, beautiful turquoise magnesite ovals were used to perfectly complement the dog paw print pendant. The turquoise magnesite used here is permanently dyed a gorgeous turquoise sky blue color with natural veining in various shades of brown in most pieces. To add beautiful drape and even more copper glow, each piece of magnetite is separated by copper tube beads and small copper beads. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BEST FRIEND paw print pendant necklace was created for the woman who adores her dog(s) and adores wearing one of a kind artisan jewelry.

*** Please note: when sold, one half (1/2) of the purchase price of the BEST FRIEND dog paw print necklace will be donated to an animal rescue organization to help care for the four footed souls waiting for their furever home.

Neon Pink And White Seed Bead Hoop Earrings, Stainless Steel Earrings, Unique Shape Earrings, Vintage 60's 70's Look Earrings

 Neon Pink And White Seed Bead Stainless Steel Hoop Earrings

THE SINGING BEADER

These cute earrings have a retro vintage 60's or 70's look. I made them with neon pink and bright white glass seed beads and stainless steel hoop forms. The hook earrings and jump ring attachments are also stainless steel. The perfect earrings for one who has allergies to other metals.

The irregular shape of the hoops are unique and interesting. They are rounded at the bottom with straight sides. I asked my husband how he would describe the shape and he said they remind him of one-third of a slice of a pie. I agree! Maybe I should make him a pie now!

There are 10 photos showing details including the size of the earrings compared to a ruler, a quarter, and in my hand. See the description below.

● Earrings dangle from ear wire: 2 1/4”

● Hoops: 1 1/4” x 1 7/8”

● Seed beads: 4 mm x 3 mm

Earrings come with an organza pouch that can be used for gift-giving or storage.

Aqua Brass Gold White Earrings, Painted Rustic Copper Handmade Jewelry

 

The "Magnifique" handmade earrings feature gorgeous artisan hand painted brass diamonds and unique Czech glass beads - lightweight jewelry for women.

What a stylish and lightweight pair of earrings to wear! The one of a kind MAGNIFIQUE handmade earrings will definitely become your “go to” jewelry for spring and summer . . . and all the rest of the year. Created with artisan made, hand painted brass diamonds, sparkling Czech glass beads, copper and sterling silver, they are fun and flirty with a vintage look to them. The brass diamonds were hand cut, the edges filed to a silky smoothness and given a slight wavy ridged texture. Hand painted on both sides in a combination of aqua, gold and white, they look somewhat like a piece of modern splash art in the style of Jackson Pollock. To add a fantastic rustic look, the diamonds were very lightly sanded to let a bit of the brass show along the ridges. They were then sealed for many years of wearing joy. Because the diamonds are painted on both sides, the earrings look fabulous from any angle.  To perfectly complement the painted diamond dangles, eye catching Czech glass beads, made in the Czech Republic, were added above. The beads were created from clear glass and then coated with a metallic Picasso finish. The finish flashes a whole range of colors from aqua to green to golden with bits of blue and orange thrown in when the light hits them just right. The square beads are long faceted, creating v-shapes that allow the clear glass to show through for a unique 3-D effect. The photos don’t do justice to their beauty at all. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the MAGNIFIQUE, the well named earrings were created for the woman who loves unique artisan earrings that are eye-catching and lightweight to wear. “Magnifique” is French for “magnificent.”

The brass diamonds were hand textured and hand painted with aqua, gold and white.

Here's the important information for the MAGNIFIQUE handmade earrings:

• Hand painted brass diamonds: app. 26 mm x 26 mm x 1.5 mm (1” x 1”); artisan handmade by Sharyl of Metapolies
• Faceted Czech glass beads: app. 7 mm x 7 mm (0.28” x 0.28”)
• Metal: brass, copper and sterling silver
• Earwires: sterling silver French hooks with copper bead accents
• Length: app. 2.25” / 5.7 cm measured from the top curve of the earwires

Sky Blue Purple Flower Earrings, Czech Glass Pansies Handmade Jewelry

The one of a kind "Pretty Pansies" handmade flower earrings feature sky blue Czech glass pansy beads and plum purple melon beads - jewelry gift for women.

The PRETTY PANSIES handmade flower earrings are super sweet to wear all spring and summer long. Perfect floral jewelry for the woman who likes smaller earrings, the beauties feature sky blue Czech glass pansy flower beads, purple Czech glass melon beads and sterling silver. The focal of the two-sided earrings are the amazing Czech glass flower beads in a glossy sky blue silk color. The pressed glass beads have five petals and a recessed center with a starburst design. To highlight the sky blue flowers and to add a bit of a vintage look, a plum purple and metallic bronze Picasso finish was applied. It settled into the center of each flower and on the edges, each side being just a bit different. The flowers are capped on the top and bottom with a set of two tiny sterling silver disc spacers. Since the glass pansies are two-sided, the earrings look fabulous from any angle. To complement the pansy flowers beautifully, bringing out the colors of the center, translucent plum purple Czech glass melon beads were used. Glowing amazingly in the light, the beads have a metallic bronze Picasso wash. Two sterling silver disc beads and a single sterling round tops the melon beads. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the PRETTY PANSIES earrings are a wonderful gift for the woman who loves flowers (perhaps a flower gardener?) and wearing one of a kind, artisan-designed jewelry.

The Czech glass flowers are two sided, a flower design impressed on each side making the earrings the beautiful from any angle.

Here's the important information for the PRETTY PANSIES handmade flower earrings: 

• Sky blue Czech glass pansy flower beads: app. 12 mm x 4 mm (0.47” x 0.2”) plum and metallic bronze Picasso finish

Ishtar Star of Venus Earrings, Travertine Czech Beads Handmade Jewelry

The unique "Ishtar" handmade earrings feature Czech glass nine pointed star coins, Swarovski crystals, copper and sterling silver - goddess jewelry for women.

Do you love unique jewelry with ancient symbolism built right in? The ISHTAR handmade earrings are for you! The earthy, one of a kind beauties feature earthy travertine style Czech glass beads with an eight-pointed star, rich orange Czech glass beads, copper and sterling silver. The two-sided coin shaped Czech glass beads were created from orange glass with a stone like travertine finish in browns, dark gray, minty green and misty blue. While the glass was still molten, an eight-pointed star within a circle was impressed into each side. A gold Picasso finish was added to bring out the details of the star and the circle Since the Czech star beads are two sided, the earrings look wonderful from any angle. *** This particular star is a symbol of the ancient Sumerian goddess Inanna which was later worshipped by the Babylonians, Assyrians and others under the name Ishtar, the Queen of Heaven. She was the goddess of love, beauty, fertility, war, justice, and political power. Because Ishtar was associated with the planet Venus, the star is also known as the Star of Venus.  To add a rich copper glow, intricate filigree flower petal bead caps were placed on the top and bottom of the star beads. Since all stars need sparkle and to perfectly complement the orange travertine look of the beads, a single faceted Swarovski crystal bicone bead, in an eye catching color called “Indian red,” caps each star bead.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the one of a kind ISHTAR earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who loves to wear artisan created jewelry with ancient symbolism.

The beautiful Czech beads have an earthy travertine finish and gold Picasso finish with a nine pointed star in a circle impressed on each side.

 

Here's the important information for the ISHTAR handmade star earrings:

• Two-sided Czech glass star beads:  app. 14 mm x 6 mm (0.55” x 0.24”)
• Swarovski crystals:  faceted 4 mm Indian red bicones
• Metal:  copper and sterling silver
• Earwires:  sterling silver French hooks with copper bead accents
• Length:  just a bit over 1.5” / 3.8 cm measured from the top curve of the earwires
