I created this pendant for Talitha, who wanted a piece to wear in memory of her father.
The symbol is a Scouting one, which means ‘Gone Home’. Talitha will have these words engraved on the pendant when she receives it.
I hope this piece brings comfort and fond memories!
Thanks, Talitha, it was a pleasure to create this for you.
I created this sterling silver ljiljan pendant for a customer as a gift for her partner.
The Lilium bosniacum is a lily native to Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the is national symbol of the Bosniak people.
This design is also known as a fleur-de-lys, often used in heraldic imagery. Thanks, Caitlin. I hope it was well received!
Margaret, a lovely woman I met at my stall at the BrisStyle indie Markets, chose this stone from my gemstone collection, and commissioned me to create a pendant for her daughter’s birthday.
I spent quite a while deciding whether to have the stone pointing up or down – I went with down as you can see! The granulation just adds a little something, I think.
Thank you so much, Margaret, and I hope that your daughter loves her new pendant!
While I was creating the lovely Margaret Ingles her coherent wave pendant, she decided that she would love to have one each for her two daughters, too!
I was happy to create this pair of pendants to match Margaret’s.
Margaret is such a lovely person, it was a joy and a pleasure to work with her! Thanks, Margaret, you’re a treasure!
When this hueso handcarved bone cabochon arrived at our house, I nearly kept it for myself, but my son instantly said how cool it was, and asked if he could get me to custom make a pendant for his friend, Charlotte.
The moon face is so serene!
I learned a little bit about bone and bone carving while I made it. I am always so pleased to know there are such talented people in our world!
My beautiful Granny turned ninety-eight recently, and I created this sterling silver twisted chain necklace for her, to match the bracelet I made for her a while ago.
With around two hundred and eighty links to be made, joined and soldered individually, it took a while to complete. I love the simplicity and the gorgeous way it rolls.
I’m planning a little blog post on the creation of it, so stay tuned for that.
Happy birthday, dearest Granny!
I made these annuli shaped pendants for a lovely customer. She is going to have them engraved with some dates that have a very special meaning to her, as part of a healing process.
I was so glad to play a small part in this story!
I was pleased to be contacted by the lovely Margaret, who asked if I would be able to create her a pendant from a symbol she had in mind.
She is an artist, and this coherent wave symbol has become an important piece of her creative process.
I created this piece for Margaret to wear to the opening of her latest exhibition, ‘Bliss’, at the Lethbridge Gallery in Brisbane.
Surrender – Margaret Ingles
Margaret was kind enough to invite me to the opening, and I am in awe of her powerful, vibrant, beautiful works! If you’re anywhere near Paddington, it’s well worth stopping in to see these gorgeous paintings. Thank you so much, Margaret!
A customer wanted a pendant for a dear friend of hers who lives on the other side of the world. Moonstones and the ocean were the theme!
The faceted stone is a grey moonstone, and the rounded one is a white moonstone.
I’m pleased with this little seahorse!
My best friend asked me to create a tree of life pendant for her lovely sister for her birthday.
To me, the brown of the smoky quartz (also known as cairngorm) represents the earth, and the red of the almandine garnet represents the fruit of the tree.
I wanted this tree to have a different, softer feel that the tree of life ring I made. So glad to hear the lovely El likes it!
