Inspiration for pieces explained: Fossil Bracelet

    

Fossil jasper is one of natures wonders. It actually contains fossilised creatures (usually coral), but also has colour and beauty of its own. Now I admit to making a grave error when I bought these stones, I didn't check the size, so my pairs of earrings I was expecting to make were suddenly gone, the stones were too small! 


However, I realised I could make a necklace, so started to plan it out... realising very quickly that they would make a far better bracelet. After all, what better than to be able to stare at these gorgeous little gems in detail? On the neck you'd never get to know them! 

In the end it was a happy accident, and I'm still trying to persuade myself not to sell the piece!

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

Inspiration for pieces explained: Jasper Cuff Bracelet

         

These beads are just so amazing! Each one has a cut-out for a bead, and although I could have used a contrasting colour or more jasper, I decided on silver to give a shimmer to the piece, and not make the colours too overwhelming. I also like that it makes the piece 'metal' without being too masculine.
