Dragonfly Boho Earrings, Pink Yellow White Lightweight Handmade Jewelry

Colorful "Danza Libellula" handmade earrings featuring artisan dragonfly dangles, raspberry red lampwork beads and faceted Czech glass beads - lightweight boho earrings for women.

Cheerful and colorful with a pair of dancing dragonflies, the DANZA LIBELLULA handmade boho earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who loves the amazing creatures. Lightweight to wear, they feature artisan polymer clay dragonfly teardrops, artisan lampwork glass beads and faceted Czech glass along with lead free pewter bead caps and sterling silver. The dragonfly dangles were created individually from white polymer clay in an upside down teardrop design. The dragonflies are raised against the background for wonderful texture and then were hand colored in joyful shades of bright pinks, sunny yellows, sky blues and leafy greens with some of the white base showing through to highlight the colors. The sides and the smooth backs of the teardrops are yellow. Since the teardrops were individually handmade, they are very similar in design but not exactly the same. To perfectly complement the exquisite dragonfly teardrops and to add translucent glow and subtle sparkle to the overall design, raspberry red lampwork beads and faceted Czech glass were used. The lampwork beads were artisan handmade from clear glass with a raspberry red frit added to give a speckled appearance. Because the glass is translucent, the glow they provide is amazing. A leafy lead free pewter bead cap tops the lampwork bead. Sitting on top of each lampwork bead is a pale yellow Czech glass bead. Since the beads are faceted the sparkles and shine with sunny translucency. Both have the same leaf design bead caps on the top and bottom. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DANZA LIBELLULA earrings are perfect for the woman who loves dragonflies and one of a kind boho style jewelry. “Danza libellula” is Italian for “dragonfly dance.”

Blue Black Dragonfly Earrings, Swarovski Handmade Nature Jewelry Gift

The "Blue Dragonfly" handmade earrings were created with blue and black Czech glass dragonfly beads and indigo Swarovski crystals - unique artisan jewelry for women.

With their luscious jet blue and black dragonfly beads, sparkling indigo Swarovski crystals and glowing copper, the one of a kind BLUE DRAGONFLY earrings are filled with eye catching loveliness. The handmade, nature inspired earrings feature Czech glass coin beads with a dragonfly image impressed into the front and back. The opaque glass is a mix of blue and black with a high gloss finish. A silky lighter blue Picasso finish was applied to bring out the lovely detail of the dragonflies and adds a rustic look to the overall design. As you can see in the photos, each side of the dragonfly beads is different in the amount of blue and black that can be found - this is the norm in most high quality Czech glass beads.  To complement the jet blue color of the dragonfly beads and to add great sparkle, a single 6 mm faceted Swarovski crystal bicone was used. The color is called “indigo,” an opulent color of dark blue. A 2 mm copper bead was placed on top of each crystal.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BLUE DRAGONFLY earrings were made for the woman who loves unique, artisan dragonfly jewelry.

The unique handmade earrings feature Czech dragonfly coin beads in blue and black glass with a silky lighter blue Picasso finish.

Here's the important information for the BLUE DRAGONFLY earrings:

Dragonfly Earrings, Copper Lampwork Vintage Look Handmade Jewelry Gift

The autumn colored "Dragonfly Days" earrings feature artisan handmade dragonfly on copper dangles and speckled amber brown lampwork glass beads - unique fall jewelry for women.

Filled with a calming oriental inspired vintage look, the DRAGONFLY DAYS handmade earrings are perfect to wear on those rich, glorious days of autumn. The unique earrings feature artisan dragonflies on copper charms and speckled amber brown lampwork glass beads, also artisan created. The lovely square-shaped dragonfly charms look as if they were cut from old, weathered cookie or tea tins. But they only mimic rustic vintage tins since they were individually artisan hand cut, filed and sanded from modern copper. A permanent metal transfer was applied and then the charms were sealed for long wear. Two dragonflies, one larger and one smaller, fly against a background of bamboo and a rising sun. The colors of the dangles are absolutely drenched with fall hues and have an oriental flair. Since the dangles were individually handmade, there are slight differences which add a wonderful rustic vibe. The back of the dangles are smooth, shiny copper which will gradually gain a glowing patina over time. Because the charms are made from copper, the earrings are very lightweight to wear.  To highlight the dragonflies charms, glowing lampwork glass beads were added. The individually artisan handmade lampwork beads started out as clear glass, but when still molten, a brown frit sprinkled on to add an eye catching amber glow with brown speckles.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DRAGONFLY DAYS earrings are a perfect jewelry gift idea for the woman who adores dragonflies and loves to wear one of a kind artisan earrings. 

The unique copper dangles have a beautiful oriental vintage look to them with two dragonflies, bamboo and a rising sun design.

• Dragonflies on copper dangles:  app. 20 mm x 20 mm x 1.5 mm; artisan made by Helena Benkoczka
• Brown speckled lampwork glass beads:  app. 10 mm x 7 mm; artisan made by Lisa Anderson
• Metal:  copper and sterling silver
• Earwires:  sterling silver French hooks with copper bead accents

Dragonfly Earrings, Pewter Swirling Blue Handmade Jewelry Gift Women

The "Blue Dasher" handmade earrings feature artisan made pewter dragonfly charms, swirling blue glass beads and metallic blue Swarovski crystals.

Named after a beautiful blue dragonfly that is found throughout a large portion of the United States, Canada and Mexico, the one of a kind BLUE DASHER dangle earrings are a perfect gift idea for the woman who adores watching the fantastic flight of dragonflies as they expertly dip and dash through the air. The handmade earrings feature round pewter charms with a raised dragonfly design, swirling shades of blue glass beads and metallic blue Swarovski crystals. Just look at the detailing of the artisan designed and hand cast lead free dragonfly charms! To bring out the amazing texture of the raised design, the charms were given a dark, rustic patina and then polished, the raised areas left with a glowing silver color. The back of the charms have a dark patina finish.

Swirling blue lampwork beads and sparkling metallic blue Swarovski crystals perfectly complement the dragonfly charms.

To perfectly mimic the real colors of the Blue Dasher dragonflies, swirling blue glass beads with facets and metallic blue Swarovski crystals were stacked above the charms. The glass beads started out with a core of the palest blue (almost white) and then swirls of various shades of blue, black and light teal were added. The bead was then encased with clear glass and faceted for subtle sparkle. To add even more intense sparkle, a rich “metallic blue” Swarovski crystal was added on top of the glass beads separated by a sterling silver daisy spacer. Sterling silver French hook earwires finish the earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BLUE DASHER dragonfly earrings were created for the woman who loves unique, one of a kind artisan jewelry.
