Pink Sugar Skull Earrings, Day of the Dead Halloween Handmade Jewelry

The fun PINK SUGAR SKULLS handmade earrings feature pink Czech glass skulls and fuchsia pink Austrian crystals - unique Day of the Dead and Halloween jewelry for women.

The one of a kind PINK SUGAR SKULLS earrings are full of spectacular spooky fun, perfect for Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) festivities, Halloween parties . . . or for any time of the year you feel the need to wear trendy skull jewelry! The radiant earrings feature two-sided pink Czech glass skull beads and fuchsia Austrian crystals. The unique skull beads were created with a base of translucent light pink glass. A charming sugar skull design was impressed into the glass on both sides of the beads. To add an aged look the pink glass was given a shimmering matte, sea glass tumbled look with some “crackles” and “pits” (that don't disturb the integrity of the glass). A metallic pink Picasso finish was applied to bring out the details of the faces of the skulls. It settled into the recesses, highlighting the amazing floral eyes, an inverted heart shaped nose, the grinning mouth and any other recessed areas of the skull beads. Since the sugar skulls are two sided, the earrings look beautiful from any angle when worn. All sugar skulls need a bit of sparkle so faceted fuchsia pink Austrian crystals were used. Resembling a crown, just above the sugar skulls are glittering fuchsia Austrian crystals set in silver plated rondelles. To add even more exquisite sparkle, a faceted Austrian crystal bicone, also in fuchsia pink, is snuggled into the top of each rondelle. Sterling silver French hook earwires finish the earrings. The PINK SUGAR SKULLS earrings were carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs for the woman who wants to add ghoulishly fun jewelry to add to her unique skull jewelry collection.

• Pink Czech glass sugar skulls:  app. 20 mm x 17 mm x 5 mm (0.78” x 0.67”); metallic pink Picasso finish
• Austrian crystal rondelles:  app. 7 mm x 3 mm; fuchsia pink crystals
• Austrian bicones:  faceted 6 mm “fuchsia” crystals
• Metal:  sterling silver and silver plated (rondelles with crystals)

Wild Woman Earrings, Ceramic Lampwork Crystals Handmade Jewelry Gift

The WILD WOMAN handmade earrings feature artisan ceramic drops, artisan lampwork glass beads and Swarovski crystals - unique jewelry for women.

Let them know exactly how you feel whenever you wear these absolutely fun, one of a kind WILD WOMAN handmade earrings! Perfect for the woman who is ready to tackle the world and loves smile-inducing, boho chic jewelry, the lightweight earrings were created with artisan ceramic drops with am etched wild woman stick figure, artisan lampwork glass nugget beads, leaf-style pewter bead caps, glittering Swarovski crystals and sterling silver. The hand carved ceramic shield drops have a wonderful rustic look. A fierce wild woman with raised arms, wide eyes and upright hair was etched into beige clay. Dots are found along the edge of each dangle. The etched areas were carefully painted with a dark brown paint to bring out the design and then fired in a kiln at high heat for strength and durability. The backside of the dangles was given a very light wash of brown. Since the dangles were individually handmade, they are very similar but not exactly the same.  Complementing the wild woman dangles brilliantly are artisan lampwork glass bead nuggets and sparkling Swarovski crystals. The lampwork beads were created with a lilac plum glass with a bit of beige. Fine silver raised dots were added around the middle for extra eye appeal. The lampwork beads are nuggets so they are not completely round. Capping the top of each nugget is a pewter bead cap with a leaf design. Above each bead cap is a mega-sparkle faceted Swarovski crystal bicone in a color called “lilac shadow,” a combination of lilac and clear crystal with a light gold coating. Sterling silver French hook earwires with an added lilac shadow crystal for extra sparkle finishes the fun earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the WILD WOMAN earrings are a wonderful gift for the woman who loves unique jewelry, loves life and has more than a bit of a free spirit wild woman in her.

The fun ceramic drops were individually artisan handmade with a hand carved and hand painted wild woman design.

• Wild woman ceramic drops: app. 26 mm x 14 mm at widest x 3 mm (1.02” x 0.55”); artisan handmade by Jana Bližňáková
• Lampwork glass nuggets with fine silver: app. 9 mm x 8 mm (0.35” x 0.31”); artisan handmade by Jody Brimhall
• Swarovski crystals: faceted 4 mm lilac shadow bicones
• Metal: sterling silver and pewter (bead caps)
• Earwires: sterling silver French hooks with lilac shadow Swarovski crystal accents
• Length: app. 2.5” measured from the top curve of the sterling earwires

Wildfire Orange Spike Earrings, Rustic Ceramic Boho Handmade Jewelry

The blazing hot WILDFIRE handmade earrings feature artisan orange spikes and Czech glass roller beads - boho jewelry for women!

Hot, hot, hot in all their flaming red orange beauty, the unique WILDFIRE handmade spike earrings are extremely trendy and fun to wear often! Jewelry with a rustic boho vibe, the one of a kind earrings feature artisan made ceramic spikes, premium Czech glass roller beads, copper and sterling silver. The vibrantly colored spikes were individually artisan handmade from porcelain ceramic and painted with a glaze called “wildfire.” As you can see, the color is intense with shades of orange, red, yellow and specks of green. The top of each spike was coated with bronze clay and then were kiln fired at high heat for strength and durability. Since the spikes were individually handmade, they are very similar in color but also different, as you can see in the photo, adding great rustic charm.  To perfectly complement the spikes, premium Czech glass roller beads were used at the top of the spikes, separated by several layers of rustic copper wire wrapping. The faceted beads were created with a somewhat translucent green and aqua blue base glass. To add earthy goodness, a heavy Picasso finish was added in shades of mossy green, copper and medium blue. Since the Czech roller beads are faceted, they add subtle sparkle to the earrings design.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the one of a kind WILDFIRE earrings were created for the woman who adores jewelry with a huge dose of boho beauty!

Here's the important information for the WILDFIRE spike earrings:

• Wildfire orange porcelain ceramic spikes: app. 35 mm x 10 mm at widest (1.34” x 0.4”); artisan handmade by Petra Capreau
• Czech glass roller beads: app. 10 mm x 6 mm (0.4” x 0.24”)
• Metal: copper and sterling silver
• Earwires: sterling silver French hooks with copper bead accents
• Length: app. 2.5” / 6.4 cm measured from the top curve of the sterling earwires

Druzy Pendant Necklace, Fire Agate Red Garnet Earthy Handmade Jewelry

The EARTH SONG handmade necklace features a glittering druzy pendant, faceted brown fire agate and red garnet - unique gemstone jewelry for women.

Even though the photos don’t show it, the one of a kind EARTH SONG handmade necklace is filled to the brim with eye-catching sparkle, something surely to sing about. The earthy necklace features an exquisitely glittering druzy agate pendant. Faceted brown fire agate, red garnet and sterling silver complement the druzy pendant perfectly. What is druzy? Druzy (or druse) refers to a coating of fine crystals over the surface of a rock cavity, usually within a geode or something similar. The druzy agate gemstone pendant is teardrop shaped and has a cavity running up the right side. The face of the pendant is absolutely covered in breathtaking, off-white crystals, looking as if someone sprinkled a thick layer of fine sugar crystals on it. And do the crystals sparkle and sparkle and then sparkle some more, shifting as the angle of light changes. The back of the pendant is smooth with the lovely natural pattern of the agate mother rock.  Adding glamor to the design and highlighting the pendant perfectly are faceted fire agate rounds and red garnet heishe along with sterling silver. A type of banded chalcedony that is famous for its intricate patterns, the colors of the fire agate range from black to root beer brown to pale beige.  Many of the stones are translucent and seem to capture the light.  In between each grouping of agates are three hand cut red garnet heishe. They are separated from the agate by small sterling beads.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the EARTH SONG gemstone necklace was created for the woman who is amazed at the unexpected treasures that can be found in the Earth and who adores wearing one of a kind, artisan jewelry.

The one of a kind EARTH SONG gemstone necklace has such an earthy feel to it!

Here's the important information for the EARTH SONG druzy pendant necklace:

• Druzy agate pendant: app. 62 mm x 34 mm at the widest x 12 mm (2.4” x 1.3” x 0.47”)
• Faceted fire agate gemstones: app. 10 mm (0.4”)
• Red garnet heishe: app. 5 mm x 3 mm (0.2” x 1.12”)
• Metal: sterling silver
• Clasp: textured sterling silver hook clasp set
• Length: app. 19” / 48. 3 cm
• Pendant drop: app. 2.4” / 6.2 cm
