The PERFECTLY PURPLE one of a kind earrings are definitely perfect for the woman who loves the color purple . . . and for the woman who wants a unique pair of fashion earrings to add to her artisan jewelry collection. The rich looking earrings feature transparent artisan lampwork glass beads and sparkling Swarovski crystals, two shades of purple in one pair of earrings. Individually artisan handmade, the lampwork beads were created from transparent medium amethyst colored glass. To add even more beauty, a fine silver was added to the middle of each bead when the glass was molten, created random raised dots and lines. Since the purple lampwork beads are transparent, the capture and radiate the light, positively glowing when worn! Adding even more interest to the overall design are glowing pewter flower bead caps which embrace the top and bottom of each bead.  To dazzle the eye even further, a faceted 6 mm Swarovski crystal bicone was added to the top of the amethyst purple beads. The color of the Swarovski crystals is called “light amethyst,” a soft, sparkling counterpoint to the dark purple lampwork beads. Sterling silver French hook earwires finish the glowing earrings.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs for the woman who loves artisan jewelry, the PERFECTLY PURPLE earrings will quickly become a unique “go to” pair that you will want to wear time and time again.

Inca Cross Necklace, Leopardite Jasper Pearls Chakana Handmade Jewelry


chakana inca cross handmade necklace gemstones pearls

The "Chakana" pedant necklace features a leopardite jasper Inca cross, pearls and copper - meaningful gift for women.

The CHAKANA cross pendant necklace is a meaningful jewelry gift for the woman who adores unique crosses. The handmade necklace features a spotted leopardite gemstone Inca cross, glowing brown freshwater pearls and copper. The Inca cross (also called a chakana) is a stepped cross made up of equal arms indicating the cardinal points of the compass and a superimposed square creating twelve corners. Used by Andean cultures from as far back as 600 BC, the chakana was worn as a talisman, as jewelry, woven in textile designs and used as architectural designs. The Spaniards quickly co-opted the Inca cross and it used to help convert the indigenous people to Christianity. The Inca cross (which I bought in Cuzco, Peru, many years ago) is carved from leopardite jasper, a gemstone with natural leopard-like spots. The base stone is usually a light beige color with darker brown or grayish spots. As you can see in the photos, the chakana is two-sided with a unique spotted design on both sides.  To perfectly compliment the colors of the Inca cross, glowing copper brown freshwater pearls were used. The colors shade from a rich, dark copper brown to a lighter golden copper brown with a high sheen. Since the pearls are freshwater, they are not perfectly round as the photos show. Most are somewhat oblong while some have ridges and bumps, normal for freshwater pearls and adds great texture to the overall design.  A copper s-clasp set with raised granulation on both sides securely finishes the necklace. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the CHAKANA cross necklace is a meaningful gift for the woman who loves to wear one of a kind cross jewelry.

Dragonfly Boho Earrings, Pink Yellow White Lightweight Handmade Jewelry


dragonfly lightweight earrings with pink lampwork yellow beads

Colorful "Danza Libellula" handmade earrings featuring artisan dragonfly dangles, raspberry red lampwork beads and faceted Czech glass beads - lightweight boho earrings for women.


Cheerful and colorful with a pair of dancing dragonflies, the DANZA LIBELLULA handmade boho earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who loves the amazing creatures. Lightweight to wear, they feature artisan polymer clay dragonfly teardrops, artisan lampwork glass beads and faceted Czech glass along with lead free pewter bead caps and sterling silver. The dragonfly dangles were created individually from white polymer clay in an upside down teardrop design. The dragonflies are raised against the background for wonderful texture and then were hand colored in joyful shades of bright pinks, sunny yellows, sky blues and leafy greens with some of the white base showing through to highlight the colors. The sides and the smooth backs of the teardrops are yellow. Since the teardrops were individually handmade, they are very similar in design but not exactly the same. To perfectly complement the exquisite dragonfly teardrops and to add translucent glow and subtle sparkle to the overall design, raspberry red lampwork beads and faceted Czech glass were used. The lampwork beads were artisan handmade from clear glass with a raspberry red frit added to give a speckled appearance. Because the glass is translucent, the glow they provide is amazing. A leafy lead free pewter bead cap tops the lampwork bead. Sitting on top of each lampwork bead is a pale yellow Czech glass bead. Since the beads are faceted the sparkles and shine with sunny translucency. Both have the same leaf design bead caps on the top and bottom. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DANZA LIBELLULA earrings are perfect for the woman who loves dragonflies and one of a kind boho style jewelry. “Danza libellula” is Italian for “dragonfly dance.”

Tree of Life Sun Spiral Necklace, Rose Quartz Rustic Handmade Jewelry


tree of life sun spiral rose quartz handmade necklace jewelry gift

The unique "Arburu de Vita" handmade necklace features a handmade Tree of Life pendant and faceted rose quartz nuggets - symbolic jewelry for women.

Stunning with its artisan handmade, hand painted tree of life pendant and faceted pink rose quartz nugget gemstones, the one of a kind ARBURU DE VITA necklace is a beauty you’ll want to wear over and over again. The eye catching necklace features a rustic pendant created from off-white polymer clay. Borrowing on an ancient symbol found through the history of mankind, a Tree of Life design with leaves and a spiral shaped root is raised against the background. Added above the tree is a hand formed rayed sun. Hand painted in rich colors of aqua turquoise, pink, lavender, purple and bits of brown, the colors settled into the recessed areas and the “cracks.” To add a rustic vibe, the Tree of Life pendant was lightly sanded with fine grit sandpaper on the tree and around the edges to let bits of the off-white base clay to show through. The back is also painted. To perfectly complement the Tree of Life pendant, faceted rose quartz nuggets were used. The colors shade from a pale pastel pink to a medium pink; some nuggets are translucent while some nuggets are opaque. For the most part, the nuggets are longer than wider, and, since they were hand cut, each nugget is different, adding wonderful texture to the necklace. Because the rose quartz nuggets are faceted, unexpected sparkle is added at each movement when the necklace is worn. So the necklace drapes beautifully when worn, each nugget is separated from its neighbor by a small sterling silver bead adding bits of silver glow. A sleek sterling silver toggle clasp set finishes the design. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the unique ARBURU DE VITA necklace is a perfect gift for the woman who loves the symbolism of a Tree of Life and adores wearing one of a kind designer jewelry. “Arburu de vita” is Corsican for “tree of life.”

Heart Flowers Earrings, Valentines Purple Red Copper Handmade Jewelry


hand painted red purple heart jewelry aurora glass beads

The "Bei Cuori" handmade earrings feature artisan hand painted hearts and flowers copper dangles and glowing Czech glass druk beads - unique jewelry for women.


Beautiful for your sweetheart at any time of the year, these handmade BEI CUORI hearts and flowers earrings are a perfect gift for Valentines Day and Mother’s Day, especially for a woman who loves to grow flowers. The one of a kind earrings feature colorful artisan created copper dangles along with glowing etched Czech glass beads. The oh-so-pretty hearts and flower charms were artisan made from beginning to end from pure copper. The design is a partial daisy design in a heart, the flower raised to provide wonderful texture to the charms. To highlight the flowers, the charms were individually hand painted: a rich red for the floral disc and violet purple for the petals. To protect them for years of wearing pleasure, the charms were coated with a glass like resin finish. 
Exquisitely complementing the colors of the hearts and flowers charms are etched Czech glass druk beads. The beads started out with a clear glass base, were etched for a rustic vibe and then partly coated with a dramatic metallic raspberry pink finish and / or a color shifting aurora borealis finish. The druk beads on the bottom have an aurora finish on about ⅓ of the beads, shifting in color from golden to blue to green and several others depending on the angle of the light. The upper beads have the metallic raspberry finish which has a mystic red to orange shift. Since the finishes are only on ⅓ of the beads, the earrings are constantly changing as the beads rotate. Sterling silver French hook earwires with copper bead accents finish the beautiful earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BEI CUORI hearts and flowers earrings will be a cherished jewelry gift for the woman who adores wearing one of a kind, artisan designed jewelry. “Bei cuori” is Italian for “beautiful hearts.”

Pink Winged Heart Earrings, Valentines Lampwork Handmade Jewelry Gift


pink fuchsia lampwork winged hearts earrings valentines gift for women

The gorgeous "Winged Hearts" handmade earrings feature artisan lampwork glass winged heart beads and Swarovski crystals - unique Valentines jewelry for women.


Winged hearts are used as a symbol of a joyous and free spirited nature. And, as you can see, these earrings are joyous in their own right! Fun heart jewelry to wear all year long, the romantic WINGED HEARTS handmade earrings are also definitely filled with Valentine’s Day vibes. The one of a kind earrings were created from pink and fuchsia lampwork glass hearts, Swarovski crystals in two color and sterling silver. The exquisite lampwork hearts were individually artisan made from two types and colors of glass: a shiny, soft pink opaque glass with tiny lines of clear streaks make up the body of each heart, and the wings were formed from a transparent, rich fuchsia colored glass. When worn, the fuchsia wings absolutely glow, as you can see in the photos of the earrings hanging. They are absolutely eye-catching! Since the winged hearts are artisan made, they are very similar but are also a bit different.

To perfectly complement the winged hearts and to add amazing sparkle, faceted Swarovski crystal bicones in two colors and sizes were stacked above the hearts. The larger crystal is an opaque milky pink color called “rose alabaster.” The smaller is called “fuchsia,” named after the beautiful flower, a hot pink shade with a hint of purple. Sterling silver French hook earwires with an added fuchsia pink crystal finishes the earrings beautifully. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the WINGED HEARTS earrings were created for the woman who adores unique heart earrings that can be worn all year long.
