Black Cat Moon Halloween Earrings, Abalone Crystals Handmade Jewelry

 

vintage look handmade black cat halloween earrings abalone shell

The "Black Cats Under Full Moons" handmade earrings feature artisan black cat copper dangles, abalone shell coins and Swarovski crystals - unique Halloween jewelry for women.


If you are looking for a fun pair of black cat Halloween earrings, look no farther than these jewelry beauties! The one of a kind BLACK CATS UNDER FULL MOONS handmade earrings with a vintage feel feature artisan made black cat copper dangles, glowing abalone shell (to represent a full moon) and sparkling Swarovski crystals. The eye catching black cat dangles look as if they were upcycled from old cookie or tea tins, but they were individually hand cut, filed and sanded from modern copper. To add even more of a rustic look, the edges of the charms were purposefully left with file marks, but, rest assured, the edges are silky smooth. A black cat with an arched back is found on each charm, a mirror image of each other. The Halloween cats are highlighted by a shaded creamy yellow “halo” against a rich dark blue sky. The yellow eyes of the cat are easily seen against the jet black of the hair.  Since the dangles were individually handmade, there are slight differences which add wonderful antique vibes.  Because the cat charms are made from copper, the earrings are very lightweight to wear.  Each black cat is under a “moon,” represented by iridescent, color shifting abalone shell coins. Abalone is a type of sea snail that has been prized through centuries for its meat and for its glowing shell composed of nacre (mother of pearl). As you can see in the photos, the colors of the abalone shell range from a pale ivory color though pale pinks, blue and lavenders, all very muted but beautiful. Both shell coins have natural lines running through them, adding even more interest. The coins are two sided but the side that matches the cats better were wire wrapped tightly and glued to stay in front. To represent a star above each abalone moon, a faceted color-shifting “crystal paradise shine” Swarovski crystal bicone was used. The crystals have a multicolor metallic coating that radiates pale shades of purple, blue and green as the angle of the light shifts. A perfect complement! Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BLACK CATS UNDER FULL MOONS were created for the woman who adores unique, one of a kind Halloween jewelry, especially earrings with black cats!

Sugar Skulls Earrings, Black Pink Day of the Dead Handmade Jewelry


halloween sugar skull earrings with crystals

The fun "Sugar Skulls" handmade earrings feature two sided black and pink Czech glass sugar skull beads and two types of sparkling crystals - unique Day of the Dead jewelry for women.


Very trendy and full of marvelous spooky fun, the handmade SUGAR SKULLS earrings are perfect for Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) parties, Halloween wear - or for any time of the year you have a need to wear skull jewelry! The unique dangle earrings feature two-sided beads created with a base of opaque black Czech glass impressed on both sides with a delightful sugar skull design. For an aged, folk art look, a fuchsia pink Picasso finish was added to highlight the incredible details of the floral eyes, an inverted heart shaped nose, the grinning mouth and any other recessed areas of the skull beads. As you can see in the photos, the skulls are a bit different on each side. Since the sugar skull earrings are two sided, they look beautiful from any angle.

All sugar skulls need a bit of sparkle so two types of crystals were used: clear Czech crystals and fuchsia pink Swarovski crystals: Found just above the sugar skulls are glittering Czech crystal and silver rondelles. The seven clear crystals set in the rondelles which cause a cascade of sparkling goodness when the earrings are worn. To add even more sparkle and a touch of lovely color, snugged into the top of each rondelle is a faceted Swarovski crystal bicone in a bright “fuchsia” pink color. Sterling silver French hook earwires finish the earrings. Created for the woman who wants to add ghoulishly fun jewelry to her unique Dia de los Muertos or Halloween skull collection, the SUGAR SKULLS earrings were carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs

Halloween Pumpkin Earrings, Jack O Lantern Orange Handmade Jewelry


pumpkin halloween jewelry orange lampwork black crystals

The Jack O Lantern handmade earrings feature copper pumpkin charms with a grinning face, glossy orange lampwork glass beads and two types of black crystals - unique Halloween jewelry for women.


What a fun pair of one of a kind pumpkin earrings to wear to your favorite Halloween party no matter what your costume is! The grinning JACK O LANTERN handmade earrings feature unique artisan made copper Jack O Lantern pumpkins. To perfectly complement the copper dangles, rich orange artisan lampwork glass beads and two types of sparkling black crystals were used. You can’t help but smile when you see the Jack O Lantern pumpkin charms - they look like they are grinning from ear to ear (if pumpkins had ears!). The pumpkins were individually created: molded, shaped, carved and fired in a kiln from beginning to end from precious metal copper clay. Since the charms were torched at high heat to bring out the details, they have a rich, rustic copper patina on the front and back. As you can see, the detailing of the eyes, nose and mouth are exquisite, along with ridge lines that a pumpkin normally has. To add a pop of eye catching color, the pumpkin charms were paired with orange lampwork beads.  The lampwork beads have a high shine, glossy finish that catches and radiates light. Stacked above the orange lampwork beads are two types of crystals. The first are copper rondelles with a black metal finish that are set with a bevy of jet black Czech crystals.  The crystals might be on the smaller size but they add tremendous sparkle. To add even more glitter, nestled into the top of each rondelle is a single faceted Swarovski crystal bicone in a black color called "jet.". Sterling silver French hook earwires with copper bead accents finish the fun earrings. Designed and carefully handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the whimsical JACK O LANTERN earrings are perfect for the woman who loves to wear one of a kind, artisan jewelry for Halloween.
