Garnet bracelet
I love the rich colour of garnet and silver, I think they work well as a combination. I fancied a drippy bracelet, and this one works so well.

My jewellery
Beaded pearl bracelet
This is one of the earliest pieces I made. I love pearls, but I didn't want to go really formal, so I decided on a drippy, jangly version.

Inspiration for pieces explained
Bubble Bracelet
Laboradite is a strange stone that benefits from being in a crowd. I wanted to create a piece that exploited the multiple glints of colour you get from this extraordinary stone, individually they can seem a little dull. I also felt that different shapes would give the piece texture.

Inspiration for pieces explained
Spring Bracelet
I adore green, so the chance to buy these little beauties didn't pass me by. I love using different sizes and shapes together, I think it adds to the texture of the piece, and gives it additional depth. I also love it when the stones have different shadings, and even different colours, again it adds to the beauty of the piece.

Inspiration for pieces explained
London Blue Topaz Necklace
I like simplicity when the piece itself is very strong, or elaborately shaped. The colour in this pendant is very gorgeous, and I felt it needed to stand on its own.

Questions from the curious
So why jewellerydragon?
Dragons are famous for having hordes of precious things, jewellery, gold cups, crowns, but DragonHorde didn't quite appeal, it didn't sound playful, in fact it sounded a little Role-Playing to me.
So I came up with JewelleryDragon, a specialist dragon that only wants precious things, and filled my store with that!

Inspiration for pieces explained
Autumnal Flower Necklace
I love tourmaline, and this is a very fine example. With such a cute, and simple piece, I decided that adding additional stones would take away from the unique nature of the piece.
