Wildfire Orange Spike Earrings, Rustic Ceramic Boho Handmade Jewelry


rustic wildfire orange boho earrings jewelry czech glass

The blazing hot WILDFIRE handmade earrings feature artisan orange spikes and Czech glass roller beads - boho jewelry for women!

Hot, hot, hot in all their flaming red orange beauty, the unique WILDFIRE handmade spike earrings are extremely trendy and fun to wear often! Jewelry with a rustic boho vibe, the one of a kind earrings feature artisan made ceramic spikes, premium Czech glass roller beads, copper and sterling silver. The vibrantly colored spikes were individually artisan handmade from porcelain ceramic and painted with a glaze called “wildfire.” As you can see, the color is intense with shades of orange, red, yellow and specks of green. The top of each spike was coated with bronze clay and then were kiln fired at high heat for strength and durability. Since the spikes were individually handmade, they are very similar in color but also different, as you can see in the photo, adding great rustic charm.  To perfectly complement the spikes, premium Czech glass roller beads were used at the top of the spikes, separated by several layers of rustic copper wire wrapping. The faceted beads were created with a somewhat translucent green and aqua blue base glass. To add earthy goodness, a heavy Picasso finish was added in shades of mossy green, copper and medium blue. Since the Czech roller beads are faceted, they add subtle sparkle to the earrings design.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the one of a kind WILDFIRE earrings were created for the woman who adores jewelry with a huge dose of boho beauty!

Blue Spike Dagger Boho Earrings Enamel Red Coral Handmade Jewelry Gift


blue enamel lampwork red coral spike earrings gift

The "Bellisimo in Blu" handmade earrings were created from artisan enamel spikes, artisan lampwork glass beads and red coral - boho jewelry gif for women.


If you love fabulously fun blue earrings in a boho spike or dagger design, then you’ll love the BELLISSIMO IN BLU handmade earrings. The exquisite, one of a kind earrings were created with artisan enamel dangles, artisan speckled blue lampwork glass beads and red coral. The gorgeously unique enameled dagger dangles were individually made from copper spikes. To create the background, shiny enamel glass powders in a rich blue color were fused onto the copper with a hot torch. Small bits of white glass powder were added to the lower part of the spikes to create falling "snow" or maybe flower petals. An Italian murrine glass cane was used to create the flower in the center top of each spike surrounded by lighter blue glass. To add extra eye appeal and texture, four raised red glass dots encircle the top of the murrine flowers. Since the dangles were individually handmade, they are very similar in design but not exactly the same. The back of the discs are enameled in black for a professional finish. Please note: since the enamel design was created with high shine enamel glass, there is quite a bit of reflection in the photos. Rest assured - the dangles are mainly a lovely blue with wonderful accents.  To perfectly complement the colors of the enamel daggers, artisan lampwork glass beads and red coral were used. The lampwork glass beads were individually artisan handmade with a base of clear glass. While that glass was still molten, a glass frit with shades of blue was added, creating blue speckles. Since the base glass is clear, the lampwork beads positively glow a radiant blue when the earrings are worn. To highlight the raised red glass dots on the spikes, red coral nuggets were added on top of the lampwork beads, separated by two sterling silver daisy spacers. Another sterling spacer and a small sterling bead rest on top of each coral nugget. Small red coral rounds were added to the sterling silver French hook earwires for extra fun. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the one of kind BELLISSIMO IN BLU earrings were created for the woman who adores unique spike jewelry with a definite boho flair!  "Bellisimo in blu" is Italian for "beautiful in blue."

Blue Spikes Earrings, Boho Lampwork Swarovski Handmade Jewelry Gift


blue spikes boho earrings

The unique "Blue Icicles" handmade earrings feature blue lampwork glass beads from two artists and sparkling Swarovski crystals.


The beautiful BLUE ICICLES handmade earrings are truly unique, a pair of boho earrings for the woman who adores one of a kind artisan jewelry. The earrings feature cool blue lampwork glass pieces from two talented artists and sparkling white opal Swarovski crystals. The eye catching “icicle” spikes hanging at the bottom of the earrings were created from dark blue, almost black, glass with streaks of icy blue running up and down for a lovely contrast. The glass spikes taper from the top to bottom with each tip having a tiny “drop.” Because the blue glass icicles were individually handmade, as you can see in the photos they are not exactly the same, something that adds extreme charm to the overall design.  Above the icicles, separated by two copper daisy spacers, are two lampwork glass rondelles, also individually artisan handmade. The lush blue lampwork beads beads started out as clear glass. When they were still in their molten stage, a rich midnight blue glass frit was applied to form the subtle spots. These lampwork beads positively glow when backlit! A faceted Swarovski crystal "white opal" bicone sits on top of the blue rondelles, separated by a copper daisy spacer. The sparkling crystals are well names since various colors show up when the light hits them just right - just like an opal, something the photos fail to show. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BLUE ICICLES earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who loves to wear unique boho jewelry.
