Carved Jade Moth Necklace, Fire Agate Gemstone Handmade Jewelry Gift

The "Determination" handmade necklace features a two sided carved jade moth pendant, speckled fire agate and small bone discs. 

Since the moth is considered a symbol of determination as it constantly tries to find light in any darkness, I just had to name this exquisite necklace DETERMINATION! A perfect gift for the woman who loves to wear bold jewelry, the unique necklace features a large, two sided jade moth pendant, spotted fire agate gemstones and white bone discs. The beautiful cut out moth pendant was delicately hand carved on both sides from jade - just look at the detail of the moth’s body, wings and the intricate detailing around the cut out areas! Since the pendant was hand carved, you can see that the right and left side of the pendant is not quite a mirror image, very similar but not exact. The jade pendant is a subtle creamy yellowish color ranging from very pale to darker with a hint of light rusty orange in places and speckles of black here and there. Because the pendant is two sided, you can decide which is your favorite side and wear it facing out. An eye catching lead free pewter bail with sacred spiral designs and a small dome at the top connects the pendant to the main body of the one of a kind necklace.

The "Determination" artisan necklace shown on a jewelry bust.

To perfectly complement the colors of the pendant, speckled fire agate and small bones discs were used. The speckled fire agate ranges in color from a rich root beer brown to almost black, each bead having various amounts of white dots and splotches. Some of the gemstones are translucent and seem to glow in good light; some of the agate is more opaque. Because the fire agate is faceted, the necklace catches the light and sparkles with every move. To play up the speckles and to give the necklace a sinuous feel, small white bone discs and sterling silver beads can be found between each piece of agate. The first seven at the front of the necklace ae separated by a single disc while the stones at the back are separated by three discs. A gorgeous sterling silver hammered hook clasp set finishes the necklace perfectly. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DETERMINATION moth pendant necklace was created for the woman who adores wear meaning meaningful artisan jewelry.

Pink Brown Ruby Earrings, Czech Glass Valentines Handmade Jewelry Gift

The "Tickled Pink" handmade earrings feature clear, pink and brown Czech glass coins and ruby red tri-cut Czech beads 

Since a loved one will be ecstatic to receive these wondrous handmade earrings, I just had to call them TICKLED PINK! The one of a kind earrings are a lovely combination of clear, pink, brown and ruby red, perfect for a Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day jewelry gift, especially if the woman receiving them loves earrings on the smaller side. Czech glass coins are the highlight of the earrings, a gorgeous combination of clear and various shades of pink, the pink glass raked in the shape of wings. The wings are so amazingly eye catching surrounded by the clear glass. The edges of the coins are very uniquely textured in an uneven “crust” edge for a rustic look. A brown Picasso finish was added to the edges and then polished off leaving more the the finish in the recessed areas to accentuate the beauty of the edges. Since these premium Czech coins are handmade, you can notice the slight differences in the beads.

The pink glass was raked in the clear glass to make a unique wing design in each Czech glass coin.

Stacked above the coins are tri-cut ruby red Czech glass round beads, also with a Picasso finish in lichen green and gray. Since there are three facets (tri-cut), the glowing ruby beads add subtle sparkle to the overall design. Small copper daisy spacers and 2 mm beads separate the ruby red beads from the pink and brown coins. Sterling silver French hook earwires with copper bead accents finish the earrings perfectly. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the TICKLED PINK earrings are perfect for the woman who adores wearing artisan jewelry.
