Inspiration for pieces explained: Feather and Pearl Dangle Necklace

         

I love the charm that hangs from these pieces, it was described as a leaf, but I couldn't help see them as feathers. I added a tower of pearls above them because I felt they needed richness without being overwhelmed, and I felt that the pearls gave a 'feathery' feel to the piece. Love them very much!

Inspiration for pieces explained: Cascading Amethysts Necklace

         

These tiny stones are just perfect when grouped. I wanted to get an Indian Maharaja feel to the necklace, capture the decadence of that period in Indian history. This is a wonderful piece to wear, and makes me feel very regal!

Inspiration for pieces explained: Elegance Garnet Necklace

         

I found this chain at a supplier, and wanted to make something special with it. Rather than clutter it up, or even use it unadorned, I found that adding different sized garnets added to the piece in an unexpectedly graceful way. The tiny spots of colour suit the large chain, and create a delicate piece. The garnets are lovely as they are all hand-carved, giving them warmth and unusual faceting.
