There’s a nod to the sky and the sea and the forest in these sodalite, malachite, and silver gum-leaf earrings I created last year for my client George.
As part of the design process, I sent George some pictures of combinations of different gemstones from my available gemstone collection. He chose sodalite and malachite as a lovely combo. We added the gum-leaves for a lovely subtle nature themed earring. George thought they looked great, and they went off to a new home overseas. I’m always so happy when my clients like the pieces I’ve made. It’s always exciting when they’re headed off to various corners of the globe. I have made some well travelled jewels!
My lovely client Natasha asked me to create two ascot pins, one for a friend to wear at his wedding and the other for his partner to wear.
It was the first time I’d really encountered ascot pins I have to say, so there was a bit of a learning curve involved.
I’m pretty sure they were the best dressed guys at the wedding though!
I created this custom bookmark for my client to give as a special gift.
What a great present for a book loving person!
My lovely sister had a birthday recently, and I thought she might need a bit of understated bling – so I made her a pair of melanite garnet stud earrings.Love my sister!
To go with the ring from my previous post, my gorgeous client Natasha had me make her a pair of earrings using green gemstones.
The stones are jade and bloodstone (also known as heliotrope.) Fantastic!
My lovely client Natasha found a picture of an amazing antique ring, and got me to make her a similar style using a selection of green gemstones.
The stones are serpentine, prehnite, chrysoprase, peridot and aventurine.
It looks amazing worn on the first finger – the stones wrap around and are all visible to be admired! Thanks, as always, to Natasha for her friendship and artistic vision.
My lovely client Rosie chose this beautiful stone from my gemstone collection.
It’s native silver in cobaltite. I’d never seen it before I came across this cab, but it is so beautiful!
I played around with some ideas, but in the end we decided the simple framed look was the best. It usually is!
My gorgeous client Rosie asked if I could make her a lapis lazuli ring. We discussed her vision, and I came up with a design she liked.
I most often just let the stone do the talking, but the addition of some tiny organic pieces of gold which follow the lines ofĀ the gold flecks in the lapis just seemed to fit!
Photography is not my forte, and these pictures don’t really do the ring justice. I’m sure you get the general idea though!
For her birthday in December, I made my mum these art nouveau inspired earrings set with malachite, one of her favourite stones.
I love my mum! xxx
