What a perfect jewelry gift for the woman who adores dogs! The eye catching BEST FRIEND handmade necklace features an artisan copper dog paw print pendant, turquoise magnesite ovals and copper beads. The one of a kind, slightly convex pedant was artisan made from beginning to end from pure copper A dog paw print is raised against the background. What makes the one of a kind pendant even more eye-catching is the unexpected paisley design in the larger metacarpal pad along with the four toe pads. The edge of the pendant is scalloped for even more interesting texture. To add a rustic look, the copper was given a dark patina, polished to bring out the detail and then sealed for many years of stylish fun. The pendant has a wonderful copper glow that the photos can never truly capture. The paw print design shows a bit through the back of the pendant, which also has a patina. Since the colors of turquoise and copper are made for each other, beautiful turquoise magnesite ovals were used to perfectly complement the dog paw print pendant.

To add beautiful drape and even more copper glow, each piece of magnetite is separated by copper tube beads and small copper beads.

Dragonfly and Bamboo Pendant Necklace, Brass Turquoise Magnesite Handmade Jewelry

The gorgeous "Halcyon" handmade necklace features a dragonfly and bamboo brass pendant, turquoise magnesite cubes and copper - unique jewelry for women.

Filled with peaceful spring and summer happiness, the HALCYON handmade necklace is a thoughtful jewelry gift for the woman who loves a one of a kind, artisan design. The beautiful necklace features a brass dragonfly and bamboo pendant, turquoise magnesite cubes and copper beads. The gorgeous pendant has a raised dragonfly and sweeping bamboo design against a textured background. As you can see in the photos, the detailing is brilliant. And to add even more eye-appeal and to add a rustic vibe, the pendant was given a white patina for the background with a turquoise blue patina to bring out the dragonfly and the bamboo. Please be aware that the white patina shows up more in the photos - in real life, it is much more mellow with the brass. The back of the dragonfly and bamboo pendant is naturally patinated brass. To perfectly complement the turquoise blue patina of the pendant, turquoise magnesite and copper were used. The turquoise magnesite was permanently dyed a gorgeous turquoise blue color with natural brown veining in most of the pieces. Adding even more texture to the necklace design, the magnesite is cube-shaped, a shape you don’t see very often. Three magnesite cubes were used to make each grouping with copper beads separating each cube for fluidity in the necklace drape. A larger 7 mm copper bead separates each group.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the HALCYON necklace is a perfect gift for the woman who adores dragonflies and loves to wear one of a kind jewelry with peaceful vibes.

Pumice Lava Rock Necklace, Wood Turquoise Magnesite Handmade Jewelry

The "Sueños de la Tierra" handmade necklace features creamy pumice lava rock tubes, wooden beads and turquoise magnesite - unique jewelry gift for women.

The unique SUEÑOS DE LA TIERRA handmade necklace has such a beautifully neutral color scheme that you will be able to wear it with a wide range of outfits - pale colors of the desert with bits of blue representing the sky. The one of a kind necklace features creamy white “lava” rock pumice tubes, earthy wooden beads and turquoise magnesite discs along with a liberal sprinkling of copper. Since real lava rock only comes in black and brown, the lovely tubes used in the necklace is actually pumice, another type of volcanic stone.  Lava rock is a trade name for both. Pumice is created when super heated rock is ejected from a volcanic eruption and, due to rapid cooling once the rock hits the air, small gas bubbles are trapped. As you can see in the photos, the pumice tubes are filled with tiny holes, which also makes the stones very light in weight. Pumice can be quite rough on the skin, but these tubes have been ground to a silky smoothness so there are no worries about irritation when the necklace is worn. Thirteen creamy white pumice tubes were used, all with a copper daisy spacer at each side to separate them from the rest of the beads.  A pale brown wooden bead and a bright blue turquoise magnesite disc is found between each pumice tube. The wooden beads add an earthiness to the necklace design, especially since many have natural stripes. The permanently dyed turquoise magnesite discs add a pop of unexpected, fun color to the design. The back of the necklace is finished with three wooden beads and three turquoise magnesite discs interspersed with copper beads and spacers. A pure copper hook clasp set with a raised dot design securely fastens the necklace. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the SUEÑOS DE LA TIERRA necklace is a perfect gift for the woman who loves unique, one of a kind artisan jewelry that can be worn with a wide range of outfits. “Sueños de la tierra" is Spanish for “dreams of the earth.”

Beautiful creamy white pumice stone tubes filled with tiny air holes are the highlights of the unique necklace.

Here's the important information for the SUEÑOS DE LA TIERRA handmade necklace:

• Pumice tubes: app. 12 mm x 12 mm (0.47” x 0.47”)
• Wooden beads: app. 8 mm 6 mm
• Turquoise magnesite discs: app. 6 mm x 3 mm
• Metal: copper
• Clasp: copper hook clasp set with raised dots
• Length: app. 19” / 48.3 cm

Copper Feather Earrings, Turquoise Coral Southwest Handmade Jewelry

The "Southwest Song" handmade earrings feature artisan created copper fetaher dangles, turquoise magnesite and coral Czech glass beads - boho jewelry for women.

These one of a kind SOUTHWEST SONG handmade earrings are definitely filled to the brim with the enchanting boho vibes of the Desert Southwest. The unique earrings were created with artisan made copper feather dangles, turquoise magnesite discs and coral Czech glass discs. Individually handmade, the dangles started out as a sheet of copper that was cut into a kite shape, the edges filed to smoothness and then textured with a dotted design. A copper feather charm set with polished turquoise magnesite was glued securely to each kite. Then double hand wire wrapped copper spirals were added to the top of the dangles for eye interest and texture. The back of the dangles are silky smooth. To perfectly enhance the Southwest flair, the copper dangles were wire wrapped to a stack of turquoise magnesite and coral Czech glass discs, allowing the dangles LOTS of flirty movement when worn. Two sky blue turquoise magnesite discs are separated from the single shiny coral Czech glass disc by glowing copper disc spacers - a wonderful combination!  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the SOUTHWEST SONG earrings were created for the woman who loves Southwest boho style and enjoys wearing one of a kind artisan jewelry.
