Nature Inspired Woodland Earrings with Czech Glass
- Organic Beads, Green Leaf Beads, Sterling Silver -

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/459592284/boho-woodland-earrings-green-leaf-purple?ref=shop_home_active_120

These woodland earrings feature Czech glass green leaf beads and purple sunburst ovals. The glass leaves are a bright shade of green, with nice detailing. The sunburst ovals are a dark purple ("purple silk"), with a subtle milky quality. They also have an earthy Picasso finish in dark brown.

Also included in this boho pair are black-veined brown beads carved from organic seeds and lovely sterling silver rondelles. The earring hooks are also silver, with their sterling hallmark on the back wire. To give them a richer and slightly elegant look, I decorated them with sterling silver round beads. They come with clear ear guards for better security when the earrings are worn.

This nature-inspired pair is designed in a classic stack. Each dangle has a green leaf bead with a purple oval above, flanked by a pair of organic seed beads. Separating these elements are sterling rondelles. They add a wonderful touch of light and elegance to the overall woodland tribal style.

The length here is roughly 2.25 inches, including the earrings hooks.

This rustic yet elegantly accented pair of woodland dangles was handmade by me with care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. The earrings come wrapped on a PrettyGonzo card and in a pretty organza bag, all ready for gift-giving to your favorite nature lover—or perhaps yourself!

Genuine Malachite & Amethyst Woodland Earrings
- Unique Handmade Nature-Walk Boho Jewelry -

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/621436012/leafy-charm-earrings-amethyst-malachite?ref=shop_home_active_26

These stylish gemstone and leaf charm earrings feature long nature-inspired teardrops, amethyst beads, and malachite rounds. The charms are from TierraCast (made in USA) and are silver-on-pewter engraved beauties. They remind me of forest undergrowth with leafy fallen branches and curling wild ferns. This woodland quality makes the earrings wonderful as a unique gift for anyone who is a nature lover.

To suggest wild violets growing in the woods, I chose nicely faceted amethyst rounds. They catch the light well and "rule" the earrings with color. Accompanying them are pairs of malachite, which give us the hue of fertility and forest growth. These are genuine malachite beads, not the fake malachite that is so common these days. They have nice color variegation for beads so small, and although each one is naturally different, they go together well.

This lovely pair of long boho dangles also includes: sterling silver round beads (made in USA), sterling silver earring wires ornamented (by me) with sterling beads, and ear guards, to help keep the earrings more secure on your ears. The length of the leaf drops is about 7/8th of an inch. The length of the earrings, including the earring hooks, is approximately 2.25 inches.

Please see my photos for a measurement picture showing the earrings alongside a ruler. A penny is included for further comparative sizing.

These leafy charm earrings with amethyst and malachite join my line of unique bohemian jewelry for women. They were handmade by me with great care, thought, and best wishes for their destined owner. They will arrive on a PrettyGonzo jewelry card and in a nice organza bag, all wrapped up and ready for gifting to a lover of nature and woodland pleasures—perhaps yourself!


ABOUT AMETHYST
A member of the quartz family, amethyst is traditionally considered a protective, talismanic stone. The name amethyst comes from the Greek word "amethusos," which means "not drunk." The gemstone is associated with the crown chakra, and is the birthstone for February. Amethysts are actually crystals and often have inclusions, clouding, and other interesting elements to them, as well as various shadings of their distinctive purple color.

ABOUT MALACHITE

This gemstone, as the other two, has been treasured and used for jewelry since ancient times. It was especially valued in Greece, Rome, and Egypt. It also ornamented amulets and statues, and was even ground into powder for use as eye shadow. Malachite's name may have come from the Greek "malache," which means mallow (a green plant). This mineral was also popular in medieval times as a talisman to protect its wearer against the evil eye. Perhaps malachite has attracted so much attention over the ages because of its green coloration, which always varies and suggests nature and growth. Currently there are many relatively inexpensive faux and synthetic forms of malachite on the market. I am a stickler for authentic malachite, and pay what I must pay for the genuine gemstone.

Turquoise Boho Gypsy Coin Earrings, Rustic Handmade Jewelry Gift Women


boho gypsy dangle earrings gift for her

The fun "Boho Love" earrings were created with artisan turquoise patina copper dangles, copper spirals and aqua opal Czech glass beads - unique boho jewelry for women.


Full of fun and funky boho vibes, the well named BOHO LOVE handmade earrings are perfect for the woman who has more than a bit of free-spirited gypsy or hippie in her. The one of a kind earrings, which have a definite aged look, feature artisan turquoise patinated copper half moons, coins, and spirals dangles along with glowing Czech glass rondelles. The rustic boho dangles were created from two shapes. The larger is a half moon, the rounded side at the top and the flat side at the bottom. Three holes were drilled into the bottom of the half moon and coin shaped dangles were attached using copper jump rings. To create the gorgeous turquoise color, Jax green patina liquid was applied to react with the metal. The liquid reacts differently each time used and on each piece, as you can see in the photos: a patina ranging in color from a pale turquoise through amber to a darker green. Because the coins overlap each other, a slight whimsical tinkling sound is made when the earrings move. The backside of the dangles is mostly glowing copper but there is also some patina - see photo # 8. A lovely double copper spiral was carefully formed with copper wire and attached to the top of the half moon.  Above the spirals can be found faceted Czech glass rondelles in a gorgeous aqua opal color. The rondelles positively glow when backlit. A light coating of a copper Picasso finish was applied to the top and bottom of each rondelles for a vintage look. Since the rondelles are faceted, they add subtle sparkle to the design.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BOHO LOVE earrings are a perfect jewelry gift for the woman who adores artisan earrings and abhors wearing run-of-the-mill jewelry.

Amber Lampwork & Amethyst Gemstone Earrings
- Sterling Silver Floral Beads, Artisan Glass Focal -

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/238158828/amber-lampwork-earrings-amethyst?ref=shop_home_feat_3&frs=1

Amber lampwork glass and amethyst gemstone beads come together in a lovely stylish pair of sterling silver handmade dangle earrings. The pretty lampwork beads are rondelle shaped (wider than they are long) and wrapped in fine silver. They're also translucent, which gives them a fluid and dreamy quality. These shining beauties were handmade using premium materials by Charlotte Hayes of Covergirlbeads.

To these lampwork beads I added small faceted amethyst gemstone rounds and delightful little square-shaped sterling silver pillow beads, which have a raised granulation design of a six-petaled flower on the front and back.

The basic design of each dangle is an elegant stack from top to bottom of an amethyst round, a sterling pillow bead, a lampwork rondelle, and another amethyst round, with sterling silver daisy spacers between the beads. The dangle is made from sterling wire, with a loop at the base and a triple wire wrap at the top. I carefully hammered the loops for strength. There are also pink Japanese seed beads within the lampwork focals, to keep the large beads better centered on the wire; these little additions are unseen, but do their job nicely.

The earring hooks are French style (aka fish hook) and, like all the components in this special pair, are sterling silver. They come with clear ear guards for better security when the earrings are worn. For an extra touch of elegance, I added small Swarovski copper crystal bicones to the front of the hooks. Their color is a nice complement to the amber lampwork. Including the hooks, the length of these earrings is approximately 1 and 7/8 inches.

Unique and handmade with care and good wishes, these pretty earrings are elegantly versatile, ready to add an earthy touch to a more formal, dressy occasion or some eye-catching shine and sparkle to everyday wear. They come on earring cards and in a nice organza bag, all set for gifting to that special someone—perhaps yourself!

Mediterranean Inspired Statement Necklace
- Turquoise, Coral, White Colors; Greek Spiral Pendant -

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/240169287/spiral-pendant-beaded-statement-necklace?ref=shop_home_feat_4&frs=1


This colorful artisan necklace features an eye-catching Mykonos spiral pendant, red coral pearls, white quartz, turquoise magnesite and howlite, and copper-colored Japanese seed beads. The spiral pendant was made in Greece and has a stylish rustic look. Its wavy spiral image reminds me of ancient treasure from the depths of the Mediterranean. The pendant also evokes the waves of the sea and the turning of our world and our lives.

This one-of-a-kind handmade necklace is 21 inches long and includes: 
• Red coral pearls from Swarovski
• Oval turquoise magnesite beads
• Heishi-style turquoise howlite
• White quartz rondelles and rounds
• Copper glass Japanese seed beads
• High-quality 49-strand beading wire
• Copper-plated bead caps
• Sterling silver crimps
• Copper crimp covers and wire guards
• Copper-plated TierraCast jump rings

The clasp used here is a copper-tone hook and eye, with sweet leafy detailing that reminds me of certain types of seaweed. A close up is inset into one of my photos.

With evocations of the Mediterranean and inspired by the Earth's precious waters, this is the perfect necklace for anyone who loves the sea and the meaningful symbol of the spiral. Handmade by me with great care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer, this beauty will come wrapped and ready for gifting to someone special—perhaps yourself! :)

ABOUT THE SPIRAL SYMBOL
The spiral is such a special shape, with an amazing dynamic quality that expresses movement and growth. The spiral can be seen in the form of immense cosmic galaxies as well as in the relatively tiny whorls of a human fingerprint and the microscopic structure of DNA. We see spiraling shapes in certain seashells and plants, and since ancient times, the human imagination has found symbolic meaning in spirals in and across a wide variety of cultures. Possible interpretations of spirals as symbols include growth, fertility, the journey through life, time and its passage, the journey beyond life, the sun, protection against evil, and infinity. In every sense, the spiral is a positive symbol!

Peace Symbol Earrings in Boho Chic Style
- Purple & Blue Czech Glass Chandelier Dangles -

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/261540305/peace-symbol-earrings-purple-blue?ref=shop_home_active_11&frs=1

These fun and meaningful peace sign earrings bring together shiny silver statement charms and blue and purple faceted Czech glass in an elegant boho-chic pair of dangles designed in a simple chandelier style. The peace signs, made in the USA by TierraCast, are rhodium-on-pewter plated beauties. The Czech beads, firepolished and barrel-shaped, are small and sweetly dainty. The purple color is a rich warm hue, whereas the blue is more delicate.

In the design for this pretty pair, these elements are made more eye-catching by the inclusion of small silver-filled beads. Each earring sports a trio of dangles, with the peace sign charm hanging from the central one. The dangles are connected to the earring hooks via 18-gauge jump rings. The overall overall length here is roughly 2.25 inches, including the ear hooks. (My listing at Etsy includes a photo for a side-by-side comparison with a ruler.)

These earring hooks are sterling silver French style, with the sterling mark on the rear of the hooks. They come with clear ear guards for better security when the earrings are worn. To give them an extra decorative touch, I added blue Czech beads to the front.

Honoring the beautiful ideal of peace, these earrings were handmade by me with care, thought, and best wishes for their destined wearer. They come on a PrettyGonzo jewelry card and in an organza bag, all set for gifting or enjoying yourself! They'd be a perfect pair for beach strolling, contemplating the surf and sand by day and the stars by night.

https://www.etsy.com/prettygonzo/listing/688078414/mother-goddess-necklace-for-women-boho?ref=shop_home_active_7&frs=1

This unique mother goddess pendant necklace would delight any summer gardener or nature lover who also appreciates colorful boho jewelry. It features a beautiful artisan-made goddess polyclay pendant that has been stamped with a symbolic diety image and adorned with cheerful garden blossoms, including pink roses. The styling of the goddess recalls ancient artifacts of the mother goddess from eastern Europe and her stamped impression is colored in a warm brown. The pendant is teardrop shaped and a tan salmon color. This is a sturdily made focal, 1.75 inches in length and very eye-catching.
 
To celebrate this wonderful garden goddess, I selected the following:
 • Mykonos ceramic beads (made in Greece) in orange washers and lime and hot purple tubes and washers.
• Bayong wooden beads
• Pewter protective "evil eye" beads
• Pewter daisy spacers, smooth spacer barrels, and central ornate tube bead
• Dark brown deerskin lace leather (made in USA)
• Large stainless steel jump ring


The necklace's deerskin leather lace is soft and supple, and I added two 2-strand tassels for an extra touch of fun. I used adjustable slipknots, leaving a tail on either end and ornamenting it with more Greek beads. The necklace length is set at 29 inches long, and can be adjusted by several inches to lengthen or to shorten.

A lovely inspirational boho nature piece, this mother goddess necklace was handmade beaded by me with care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. It comes nicely wrapped in an eco-friendly box, all ready for gift giving to anyone who adores the natural world, loves gardening, and appreciates the mother goddess—perhaps you!

• A TierraCast lotus charm (made in USA)

Carved ornate bone beads (made in India)
• Sterling silver spacers (made in USA)

Handmade (by me) very pale gold tassel

About the Lotus as a Symbol
As beautiful in meaning as it is in form, the lotus is one of our most positive symbols. It holds significance for anyone undergoing life changes, working toward inner peace, or dealing with life's many struggles.
There are many types of natural lotus, but the symbolic variety is typically the white or pink lotus that carries spiritual importance in India and Asiatic countries. In Hinduism, this aquatic flower often serves as a seat or platform for divinities such as Vishnu and Ganesh; in Buddhism, it provides a seat for bodhisattvas. Lotuses adorn headdresses and crowns in the iconography of these religions. In Tibetan scroll paintings (thangkas), they often float through skies or on rivers. Divinities and bodhisattvas often hold them as if they were precious jewels, and indeed, in meaning, the lotus is the most precious jewel of all.

The key to this meaning is the purity and beauty of the blossom despite its origins from a seed embedded in the mud of the water's bed below. Despite the world of illusion and egocentric desires (symbolized by the mud), awareness, growth, and transformation are possible (symbolized by the blossom). The lotus thus represents spiritual flowering and attainment—a great awakening from the dark, shadowy regions of ignorance and misunderstanding into the illumination of truth, beauty, and wisdom.

About Jasper
Generally, jasper is regarded as a warmly earthy, nurturing stone. Traditionally it is believed to be a talisman. Stability, tranquility, and healing are all commonly associated with jasper. It is composed mainly of chalcedony and quartz.

This gold-tasseled yoga bracelet features a pretty lotus charm and crystals and gemstones in the chakra color spectrum. It is a stretch-style bracelet, the length 7 inches.

A meaningful piece, this bracelet would be a wonderful companion for practitioners of yoga, tai chi, or meditation, or any spiritually minded person drawn to Buddhist and Hindu symbols and spiritual beliefs.

The crystals that represent the chakra spectrum are from Swarovski, as are the bracelet's white pearls. The latter lend a sense of purity and spiritual light to the entire bracelet. The pewter "evil eye" bead is a contemporary rendering of a talisman that has held significance as a protective force in various cultures since ancient times.

This tasseled mala-inspired chakra bracelet makes an eye-catching stack bracelet. It was designed and handmade by me with great care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. A lovely piece of yoga jewelry, it comes wrapped in a nice organza bag, all ready for gifting to someone who loves meaningful and inspirational jewelry—perhaps that someone will be you!

Egyptian Ankh Statement Necklace
with Eye of Horus Life Symbol Amulet



This ankh necklace with Eye of Horus amulet would make the perfect gift for anyone who loves boho or tribal styling as well as meaningful jewelry with historical links. The ankh is an ancient symbol that stands for eternal life. Here it is used as a creative base for several Egyptian hieroglyphics, which are shown in relief on the front of the pendant and as etchings on the back. I've included close-ups of both sides among my shop listing's photographs. Central among those hieroglyphics is the Eye of Horus, which is featured on the amulet's front and shown in smaller form on the back. It symbolizes good health, protection, and royal power and represents the goddess Wadjet.

Meaningful, with ancient symbols, an inspirational depth, and tribal and boho elements, this ankh beaded necklace was handmade by me with great care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. It is a piece that men would enjoy wearing as well as women, and that brings a positive message to all. It will arrive in an eco-friendly kraft-style box, wrapped and ready for gifting to someone special—perhaps yourself!

 
  
About the Ankh Symbol
The ankh is an ancient Egyptian symbol for eternal life, and it is a common element in the art of Egypt during the time of the pharaohs. It is also found on amulets from that historical period. This symbol appears in some ancient Mediterranean cultures as well. For example, in ancient Cyprus, ankhs appeared on coins and were used as a symbol for copper. The ankh enjoyed renewed popularity in the 1960s and is still popular today. It is a highly meaningful and positive element as well as an attractive shape in itself.


Thank you, everybody! Treats to the CPromo furpals from Gonze! :)
