First was the Fern Swirl – delicate and light – and then I fall in love with the curves of this design and created a family of Swirls. This one – Orange Peel Swirl is the most exotic of them. The colour combination is unusual for me, very colourful and the Carnelian golden orange shade brings to my mind hot places, full of sun. I added also some warmth of the tropical sea in the blue Sapphires and greenery of palm trees in Emeralds and Prehnites. I oxidised the earrings to bring out the colours and the shape itself.

I am the wilderness locked in a cage, I am a growing force you kept in place, I am a tree reaching for the sun please don't hold me down, Release me..

These earrings are the first in a series of jewelry inspired by the wonderful song "release me" by the swedish band "Oh Laura" Turning these earrings from idea to reality may have been the most challenging thing I ever made jewelry wise. I really tried to give the impression of wilderness bursting out from it's cage, being released. The wire wrapping in this piece is very intricate and the earrings consist of 22 pieces of hand formed wire wrapped together with a really thin silver wire. The cages have been oxidized and polished to provide an antique look and enhance details. Inside of the cages I have stuffed loads of gemstones of various shape and colour. They really shine through wonderfully. Out of the cage hangs various gemstone beads of different shapes such as marquises, pears and rondells. The earrings are then hung from sterling silver ear posts.

Cranberry In Snow - By Blue Almonds

Cranberry In Snow: Sterling Silver Ruby, Peridot, Chacedony and Citrine Wire-Wrapped Earrings - By Blue Almonds

Measurements: the earrings are 5.3cm/2.12” long in total and 1.9cm/0.76” wide at the widest point

Materials: Deep Red Ruby Faceted Onions (6x8mm), natural Chalcedony faceted rondelles, AA golden Citrine micro-faceted rondelles, Peridot smooth roundelles, sterling silver wire, 14K Gold Filled wire.

First snow has just covered the hills and I can see in the town shops the very first preparation for Christmas. Baubles, candles, golden and red ornaments and lots of nuts and spices - all of this put me in a wintry-Christmassy mood. In my home country my husband’s Grandmother would prepare a special cranberry jelly to be enjoyed on 24 December, the Vigil night. One can eat it with some custard flavored with natural vanilla or cinnamon. Thinking of this delicious dish I wrapped the Cranberry In Snow earrings, one of my new “Swirl” designs. The Ruby onion briolettes are of the freshest and sweetest cranberry size and colour. They are accompanied by icy-snowy, cloudy white natural little Chalcedony. Each earring is flavored with a bit of cinnamon - the golden sparkly Citrine, with a touch of 14K Gold Filled wire and also with tiny little round Peridot.

Price incl. p&p:
£ 146
Description:
The ????????? necklace features a focal divided in two parts – one silver part and one gem part. Both of them intricate in their own way and both of them working together to form a beautiful necklace that can be worn both daytime and evening time. With jeans and a top, it will display an understated elegance for work. Switch to something more formal and let the elegance bloom.
The silver part of the focal is a soldered frame of 1,6 mm sterling silver wire that I hammered flat. I wanted the frame to be embellished somehow so I made silver pearls by melting silver and soldered them on to the frame. I then wire wrapped the frame with hair thin wire and for balance I added a few laps of thicker wire. Within the main ring, I added a smaller oval that I covered completely by weaving hair thin wire over it.
The big silver pearl in the middle has some imperfections on the surface. I could say that it’s completely intentional and that it is my artistic way of showing imperfection in a, in many other ways, perfect world. That would, of course, be complete nonsense. The truth is, the core of the pearl cooled off slower then the surface of the pearl and thus creating these little cavities on the surface. But I liked it! So I kept it as it is, and only gave it a slight sanding.
Below the silver part of the focal, the gems form a spectacular cluster. The main briolette is a stunning 8 carat Olive Quartz faceted briolette with beautiful olive-brownish colour. On top of the Olive Quartz, tendrils of faceted briolettes and rondelles of Tunduru Sapphires cascades down accompanied by faceted briolettes of golden yellow Citrine.
The focal hangs from a simple chain that ends with my hand made hook style clasp.

Weaving The Rainbow - By Blue Almonds

Weaving The Rainbow - By Blue Almonds

Measurements: the earrings are 9.5cm/3.6” long in total and 2.5cm/1.0” wide the widest point
Materials: AAA micro-faceted yellow sapphire rondelles, AA garnet faceted marquises, spinel and kyanite micro-faceted rondelles, sterling silver
This very feminine design was, similarly to the Weaving Autumn Mist pendant, inspired by one of Rene Lalique masterpieces - the Peacock Brooch. This time, however, the hues are more vibrant and full of joy. It recalls the colour palette of a rainbow which I often see here in the Scottish Highlands when frequent and sudden showers together with strong autumn sunshine create heavenly arches; or like the turning leaves of sycamore tree I see on the hills.
The wavy hand crafted frame was delicately hammered and then gracefully weaved and wrapped with meters and meters of sterling silver wire to create a delicate net. To give the impression of a rainbow I used multicolor spinels at the bottom of the frame. I then added little strong blue kyanites in one corner of each earring, like a piece of clear blue sky. Yellow sapphires are like the sunrays - sparkling and shining with gold and warmth. I adorned each earring with a beautiful deep crimson garnet marquise to evoke the true rainbow red.

Heart Of princess - By Zaplecione

Heart Of Princess - By Zaplecione

Almost every girl wanted to be a princess once upon a time. Anyway - I wanted to ;) in my preschool age. For the Christmas Party my dad used to make me a paperboard crown, decorated with silverpaper and flowers and my mom would sew a princess gown - red in most cases. And I was ready to go to the ball, where Santa Claus handed toys and sweets out. Only thanks to old photos I may see now how gorgeous princess I once was. These fond memories were my inspiration in designing these earings, made with sterling and fine silver wires, topaz briolettes (9mmx5mm) and pink garnet rondelles (3mm). They glow pink by pink topaz and garnet, delicate and fabulous. Old-fashioned.
The heart frames measure 2.2cm x 2.3 cm (including ornamental post). Total length - 4 cm Earrings were oxidized and polished to bring out the coils and give more old-fashioned look.

Birch Leaves - By Små Blå

Meaurements: Drop 8 cm Circles outer diameter about 1.7mm
Materials: Sterling silver wire, green Tourmaline faceted briolettes
Description: “… I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree~ And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more, But dipped its top and set me down again. That would be good both going and coming back. One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.” Birches by Robert Frost
Once again Robert Frost proved to be a source of inspiration and once again leaves play the dominant part in these earrings, full of texture and movement. The leaves are all handmade from scratch in sterling silver wire and then wrapped to a simple textured sterling silver chain. The chains hang from double wrapped circles and here and there gorgeous green Tourmaline briolettes pop out. The earrings are quite heavily oxidised and the green gemstones give a soft hint of sparkle and colour among the leaves.

From the ear posts hang clusters of prasiolite and aquamarine rondels and to finish the earrings off I added a pair of beautiful prasiolite heart briolettes.There is a great deal of wire work put in to the earstuds that have been carefully coiled to look pretty even from the back. The earrings have also been oxidized and carefully polished to bring out details.
