Pink Waves Earrings, Brown Swarovski Valentines Handmade Jewelry Gift

 

pink handmade earrings swarovski crystals

The "Pink Wave" handmade earrings feature unique Czech glass coins and sparkling Swarovski crystals - one of a kind jewelry for her.

If you are searching for a stylish pair of handmade earrings that are also very eye catching, the one of a kind PINK WAVES beauties are for you! Created from gorgeous Czech glass coins and mega-sparkle Swarovski crystals, they are a perfect Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day gift to be worn all year long. The Czech glass coins used as the focals are absolutely stunning. These particular beads are a coin shape created with a combination of clear and pink glass and a dimpled, textured edge. The pink glass is in a flowing, wave-like design with many hues, from light pink to dark pink. The clear glass accentuates the pink waves perfectly. Then, as if the Czech beads needed more beauty, an earthy brown Picasso finish was applied to the beads. It was then polished off the flat faces of the coins but left in the crevasses of the textured crust edges. Since the glass beads were made in very small batches, they are similar but not exactly the same - even the fronts and backs are a bit different - as you can see in the photos.  To add maximum sparkle to the earrings and perfectly complement the Czech coins, two colors and sizes of faceted Swarovski crystals bicones were used. The larger 6 mm Swarovski crystal is a color called “light Colorado topaz,” a warm, light brown shade. Stacked above, separated by a small copper bead, is a 4 mm crystal in a color called “rose,” a perfect shade of medium pink. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the one of a kind PINK WAVES earrings were created for the woman who adores unique artisan jewelry that no one else has!

Purple Clear Lampwork Earrings Thai Silver Handmade Jewelry Gift Women

clear and purple lampwork earrings gift for women

The Bellezza handmade earrings feature artisan handmade clear and purple lampwork beads and Thai fine silver cornerless beads - jewelry for women.


Glowing crystal clear lampwork glass beads, spotted purple lampwork beads and Thai Hill Tribes fine silver cornerless beads all come together to create the simply beautiful BELLEZZA handmade earrings. The two sets of lampwork beads are artisan handmade from two different artists. The lampwork beads used on the bottom of the exquisite earrings are a rondelle shape and were individually created from transparent glass. Each bead has a few tiny air bubbles, which adds definite eye appeal. The lovely purple lampwork beads beads started out as clear glass. When they were still in their molten stage, a rich berry purple glass frit was applied to form the subtle spots. The two lampwork beads are a perfect complement to each other.  Above each purple bead is a Thai Hill Tribes fine silver cornerless beads with an imprinted flower design on the flat sides. They are artisan made high in the mountains of Thailand from fine silver which is more pure than sterling silver. Each bead is very similar but not exactly the same. A sterling silver daisy spacer separates each element used to create the unique earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BELLEZA earrings were made for the woman who adores one of a kind earrings, especially those that glow when worn. “Bellezza” is Italian for “beauty.”

Clear Handmade Lampwork Focal Bead Wrapped in Fine Silver






Shiny Transparent Clear Oblong Handmade Lampwork Glass Focal Bead Wrapped With .999 Fine Silver

This is a beautiful transparent clear handmade lampwork glass focal bead with a lot of .999 fine silver wrapped around the oblong bead. This handmade focal bead would would make a stunning glass pendant for a necklace or great as a focal for a bracelet. It would look fabulous with some of my clear beads with fine silver wrapped around them to complete a necklace, earring and bracelet set. Just ask and I'll make some round beads for you. They would also be perfect for weddings and bridesmaids attire also.

The photos are some examples of several beads I have made. This listing is for one bead. All pictures are showing how wire wrapping each bead becomes an original as each wire wrapped bead turns out different, yet elegant and similar. I have also shown a picture of how this glass bead would look if it were etched or frosted and is also used as an example of how it creates a whole new look or dimension.

Qty: 1 bead
Measurements: app  25-26mm
Hole Size: 2mm
