Easter Island Face Mask Earrings, Aqua Opal Czech Glass Jewelry Gift


easter island face earrings

The "Easter Island" handmade earrings feature opalized Czech glass face beads, Czech tri-cut glass beads and Swarovski crystals - jewelry for women.


The EASTER ISLAND handmade earrings have such a whimsical quality to them, reminding me of the faces of the regal statues (moai) that are found on Easter Island. Mega-fun anytime you want to inject fanciful flair to your clothes of the day, the one of a kind earrings were created with Czech glass and Swarovski crystals. The highlight of the artisan earrings are the two-sided Czech glass face mask beads in a glowing aqua blue opaline glass. As you can see, the eyes are closed, looking as if they are in peaceful repose. The lustrous blue opal look beads have a great amount of texture - the nose, chin and cheeks are raised - highlighted by a bronze Picasso finish to bring out the glorious detail. Since the face mask beads are two sided, the earrings look fabulous from any angle and positively glow when worn.  To perfectly complement the unique face beads, tri-cut Czech glass beads and Swarovski crystals are stacked on top. The Czech beads are a translucent aqua turquoise blue with an earthy matte Picasso finish. Three facets reveal the translucent glass and add subtle sparkle. Capping the Czech bead is a sparkling Swarovski crystal in a color called “white opal” a perfect foil for the opaline glass of the face beads. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the EASTER ISLAND earrings were created for the woman who adores unique artisan jewelry designs and loves to have fun with her earrings.

The "Stepping Stone" handmade necklace features an artisan created stepping stone polymer clay pendant with a peaceful face and stumbling blocks and Mexican fire opal gemstones - unique jewelry for women.


The one of a kind STEPPING STONE pendant necklace is full of rich, deep meaning, featuring an artisan handmade stepping stone pendant.  To highlight the pendant, glowing faceted natural Mexican fire opal and copper were used.  Created from a mellow orange polymer clay, the pendant represents a stepping stone with a peaceful face in gray, mini pebble “stumbling blocks” and four cup and ring designs (symbols dating back to prehistoric time) along the right edge. The face is in peaceful repose since it has turned each stumbling block into a stepping stone, positive lessons learned along the path of life. The face and the stepping stones are raised while other symbols are engraved into the polymer clay and darker painted “missteps” are scattered on the pendant. Perfectly complementing the stepping stone pendant are amazing ombre Mexican fire agate gemstone discs. Mexican fire opal is a variety of opal with natural colors that range from a dark orange to clear, with about every shade of orange in between. To add even more fiery elegance, each opal disc .  The fire opal discs were hand cut so they are similar in size and shape but not exactly the same.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the meaningful STEPPING STONE necklace is a perfect jewelry gift for the woman who is experiencing some difficulty in life, a talisman to turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones.
