Blue Lace Agate, Iolite & Pearls

 date October 9, 2009    comments  Leave a Comment   postedby MiLadyCarol

As a little girl, I spent a lot of time with my Grandma. Grandma’s apartment was a place of real wooden furniture, powder blue painted walls, a jewelry box brimming with pearl necklaces, and hand-crocheted white doilies suffused in oodles of love. The delicate white banding of Blue Lace Agate reminds me of the wood grain of the old Morris chair and the white doilies throughout Grandma’s place.

For this necklace, inspired by all the beautiful moments I’ve spent with my Grandma, I combined faceted blue lace agate with faceted iolite rondelles with sterling silver chain and spacers. To complete the necklace, I found a perfect white pearl to use as a focal point and pendant.

I love finding beautiful gems and matching pearls and crystal to them. This is a lovely piece of mottled jasper that I’ve used as a centerpiece. I found the perfect shade of khaki pearls and highlighted them with golden and smokey colored Swarovski crystals. The chain and accents are gold-fill.

Green Tourmalinated Quartz

 date October 9, 2009    comments  Leave a Comment   postedby MiLadyCarol

There’s something magical about something incased in something else. It’s like a moment frozen in time — or stone, as the case may be. Quartz is an amazing stone. It is easily influenced to many different colors by the minerals around it as it forms and it is keen to surround other plant, animal and minerals. Such is the case with these rods of dark green tourmaline crystals enveloped in pale green quartz.

A green tourmalinated quartz diamond shaped pendant and smaller green quartz rondelles are complimented by Gold-Fill chain and accents and rich, dark green Swarovski crystals.

Necklace Length: 16 1/4 inches (41 cm.)

This soft sea-green pearl and Swarovski erinite crystal set is gentle and easy to look at… and it’s no wonder. Green is said to be healing for the eyes. Egyptians knew that thousands of years ago when they lined their eyes with dark green to help with the glare of the desert sun. This soothing set of green will be healing to the eyes that behold it around your neck and ears.

Green Vintage Swarovski Crystal

 date October 9, 2009    comments  Leave a Comment   postedby MiLadyCarol

I loved raiding Grandma’s closet and jewery chest when I was a child. I probably spent more time wearing Grandma’s jewelry than she did. One of my favorite pieces was a Swarovski necklace of graduating green crystals. Years later, when I inherited that necklace, I lovingly reworked those beads into jewelry of my own. To accent them, I purchased additional Swarovski crystals those same colors. This set is inspired by, and created from those colors from my Grandma’s necklace.

Swarovski crystals in two shades of green float richly along gold-fill chain. The warm gold and greens and the classic emerald-facet cut of the crystals lie elegantly along the throat when worn.

Necklace Length: 17 3/4 inches (45 cm.)
Earrings Length: 1 1/2 inches (4 cm.)

Ocean Jasper and Swarovski Crystal Jewelry Set

An ocean jasper pendant is the centerpiece for this elegant necklace of white pearls, Swarovski crystal, and sterling silver.

Ocean jasper is found in Madagascar and can only be seen and collected at low tide. When I look at this magnificent jasper, I’m reminded of individual planets. Each one looks like its own world full of life and possibility. It’s utterly beautiful and I love to use ocean jasper as centerpieces.

Peachy Pink Pearls

The highlights of this sterling silver chain are the peachy pink pearls.  The color is warm, soft and very jovial and these photos really don’t capture how lovely they are.  I know this color to be uplifting because I painted the main rooms of my house a very similar tint.  The pearls are juxtaposed with Swarovski crystals of a deeper peachy pink shade.
