I really wanted to create a special range of jewellery, and the most precious gems available were the obvious choice. However, as I wanted to create an affordable range, I wanted to distribute the stones within the pieces, while still giving them the maximum impact. This was partially inspired by some incredible 'triangular' stones I had found, that I wanted to use in a special a piece as possible.
These became earrings in the Oh My! range. Because of the high-sparkle impact of the stones, and the refractive qualities, it takes the yellow of the sapphires and really emphasises them to the max. As these rock crystals very small, and have highly cut edges,they would be uncomfortable to wear in a necklace, but are perfect in earrings.
Stunning, and very exiting! Next step, diamonds :)

This was partially inspired by these incredible 'triangular' stones I found, I really wanted to use them with something special. Because of the high-sparkle impact of the stones, and the refractive qualities, it takes the emeralds and really emphasises them to the max.
I decided not to create a matching necklace, as the rock crystals are very small, and have highly cut edges, making them perhaps uncomfortable to wear in a necklace, but perfect in earrings. Stunning, and very exiting!

I love drops, and I thought the delicate colour of the amethysts was just so pretty they deserved to be showcased. I love the purple and silver together, and the frosting just adds to the piece. As they were round, I felt that a round earrings stud would suit them better than a drop, and I'm really pleased with the result. They are so feminine.

I adore the cut of these stones, they have faceted ends that sparkle with an icy bright glint, and frosted middles, and the white quartz is just so fresh. I have used these as interlocking pieces, as the quartz is shaped to fit together, but decided instead to add some ping with a fresh, bright colour... and it had to be peridot. This piece really leaps off the wrist!

Turquoise is one of those stones that look very striking, especially when in large quantities. I didn't want to use a large chain for this piece as the stones are small, but I did want to create a layered look, so I used a smaller chain to get the look I wanted.

I love the randomness of these blobs, and wanted to showcase them. As I had already done a bracelet with them 'in-line', I decided to spice the look up with multiple rings, and the blobs strung on them. It looks so amazing!

I adore these stones. They have such an unusual cut, and the frosted/faceted quality of them is just stunning, and subtle. Although I have created pieces that insert different stones or colours into the piece, I had to make this all black. It is now so glamorous I think it would grace any occasion, it has just enough subtly and sparkle to give you an air of mystery.
And I have a confession to make. 'Dark Night' does refer to the Batman film. Well, on their own, these little dark delights look like little bats!
