Inspiration for pieces explained: Labrodite and Vintage Glass Bracelet



When I found this labrodite, I had to have it. Labrodite contains glimmering purples, greens, blues and yellows, and these beads are simply the best I have ever owned. Now I could have just re-strung, but I decided to get the maximum out of each stone I needed to add contrast and darkness, with the lovely vintage glass. This allows you to view each labrodite as an individual, and revel in their stunning beauty.

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

Inspiration for pieces explained: Black Night Necklace



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!

Inspiration for pieces explained: Garnet and Crimped Silver Bead Necklace

          
   

I adore the silver beads I used in this necklace, they are hand made in India and have such a pretty look! Pairing them with garnet was a no-brainer, the colour just shines out from the necklace.

Inspiration for pieces explained: Fool's Gold Earrings

     
   

I adore fool's gold because it has a look of luxury for a fraction of the cost. The tiny squares of this strand of beads were begging to be earrings, but I didn't want to just stack the beds, I wanted something a little more fun. So I decided to do multiple layers and give these earrings a lot of glamour and fun.

Inspiration for pieces explained: Oh My! Ruby and Rock Crystal Earrings

         


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. 

So, I decided to use rock crystal. Because of the high-sparkle impact of the stones, and the refractive qualities, it takes the rubies and really emphasises them to the max. Stunning, and very exiting! Next step, diamonds :)
