I'm always looking for something different, so when I discovered the joys of making a 'beady bead' (a big bead made from smaller beads), I just had to give it a go. I adore this technique because you get a delicate, lacy effect in the large bead, with detail from the smaller ones. I used solid silver wire to create these, I didn't want to spoil the piece by using anything else.

p.s. And don't forget, I can customise any piece just for you, make it longer, shorter, or change the fitting! Just ask!

These emeralds are delicious. Large, chunky, and very gorgeously green. Just where are you every going to find a bracelet with this many carats of emeralds? When I got them, it was tempting to make a necklace, but I decided on a bracelet because it would be just so unusual. The stones have wonderful faceting on the edges, so setting them that way allowed the facets to really shine. This setting also has the advantage of allowing you to view the whole stone. Stunning, and fun!

These labrodite stones fell into my possession, and I was in love. Never have I seen stones with such labradorescence, it covers the whole surface on both sides. So, I needed a simple setting to show off the quality of these gorgeous stones.
