Chandelier Earrings

I am working on a collection of chandelier earrings that are similar in design. The pair pictured above are made with light blue freshwater pearls and faceted teardrops of amazonite.

This pair is made with silver freshwater pearls and glittery Swarovski crystals.

The last is a pair which I love to wear, is made up of garnets and citrine. Any ideas on what I should name this collection of earrings?

Tourmaline Chips and White Pearls

This design is made with chips of multi-colored Tourmaline and white freshwater pearls. Each section is hand wire wrapped to sterling silver chain links. This piece can also be worn two ways, either wrapped around twice or as one long necklace (as pictured). The matching post earrings each have a cluster of Tourmaline chips hanging at the bottom.

Pink Freshwater Pearls

This necklace is made with sterling silver chain and pink freshwater pearls. I am really excited about this design, because it can be worn two different ways. The first (which I like best) is looped around the neck twice as pictured. Or, if you want you can wear it as one long loop which is approximately 34" long. I like the versatility of being able to change it up, so I think I am going to design a couple of different designs with the same functionality.

Wire Wrapped Iceflake Quartz

Large pieces of tumbled Iceflake Quartz are individually wire wrapped and connected together to make this substantial necklace. I like the way you can really feel the weight of the stones hanging around your neck. This necklace can be worn with virtually any color and for any occasion. The picture below gives a close up of the Iceflake Quartz, where you can see the transulscent crackles inside the stones.

Fiesta!

I designed this three strand necklace and matching earrings totally on a whim....and it turned out to be one of my favorites! I started with the strand of Red Howlite, then added the second strand made with Turquoise and Garnets. The third strand is made out of oval pieces of Citrine separated with sterling silver spacers. The matching earrings have a little bit of everything linked together so that they really dangle. As suggested by a Natural Beauty Jewelry enthusiast (my brother Matt), this design fully deserves the name "Fiesta!".
