Pink Rhodochrosite Earrings, Gray Pearl Handmade Gemstone Jewelry Gift


teardrop earrings rhodochrosite pearls pink grey gray

The gorgeous INCAN ROSE handmade earrings feature natural rhodochrosite gemstones, peacock pearls and sterling silver - fab wonderful gift for the woman who loves pink gemstone earrings!


The exquisitely beautiful INCAN ROSE handmade earrings are a perfect jewelry gift for the woman who has a love for unique, natural pink gemstones! Pink rhodochrosite are the gorgeous focal of the earrings with glowing gray peacock pearls used as highlights. Found in the Andes in Peru (and a few other places in the world), rhodochrosite is a fairly rare gemstone that was sacred to the Incas. They believed that rhodochrosite is the blood of former rulers that was turned to stone. Because of that, the gemstones is sometimes called "Rosa del Inca" or "Incan Rose." As you can see in the photos, the highly polished rhodochrosite teardrops are mainly a lovely medium pink. Eye-catching natural gray and white banding run through the teardrops, a bit different on each side, causing a landscape pattern effect. The top and bottom of each teardrop is capped with small sterling silver daisy spacers.  To perfectly complement the colors of the rhodochrosite, two gray button pearls (flat on one side) were stacked above the teardrops. The pearls have a glorious, color-shifting peacock effect depending on the angle of the light. A single sterling silver bead caps the top of the pearl stack.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the unique INCAN ROSE gemstone earrings were created for the woman who loves one of a kind artisan jewelry with a fascinating story.

Silver Leaf Jasper Gemstone Bracelet, Red Coral Handmade Jewelry Gift


handmade silver leaf jasper red coral bracelet gift for women

The one of a kind "Mystique" handmade bracelet is created with silver leaf jasper gemstones, red coral and sterling silver - unique jewelry gift for women.


MYSTIQUE is definitely a perfect name for this exquisite handmade bracelet - just look at the alluring gemstones used to create it! A beauty you will want to wear again and again, the one of a kind bracelet features silver leaf jasper rounded rectangles, red coral nuggets and sterling silver. Not a common gemstone, silver leaf jasper is prized for its earthy swirls and bandings of ivory, tan, grays and blacks with a bit of reddish orange thrown in here and there. Look closely at the photos and you’ll see that some of the gemstones have what looks like a natural landscape or river design. Seven silver leaf rectangles make up the main body of the bracelet, each piece a one of a kind masterpiece.

To add pops of color to the bracelet, hand cut red coral nuggets are found between each rectangle, separated by small glowing sterling silver beads. The coral is mostly round, but since they’re hand cut nuggets, they’re similar but aren’t exactly the same in shape and size. Two pieces of red coral, again separated by a small sterling bead, are found at each end of the bracelet. A sleek sterling silver toggle clasp set securely fastens the bracelet when it’s worn. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the unique MYSTIQUE bracelet was created for the woman who adores wearing gemstone jewelry, especially a piece that is perfect to wear on its own or stacked with other much-loved bracelets.
