What is Feminine Passion?

Power, energy, softness, being true yourself, beauty, endless words could describe the feminine. Which is why women are bewitching. I made this pendant as a reminder, a sterling symbol of the sensual passion. The center contains swirls the symbol of energy surrounded by the exotic flower. The style of this piece is as ancient as the female herself. Made to resemble a piece that might be found in an archaeological dig.

This sterling pendant was sculpted, cast in sterling silver, oxidized and then hand polished. It measures 1 1/4in by just over 3/4in. Oxidization varies.

Are you a Classic Square?

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 15:25:40 -0700

It was the late 20's and the world was embracing a new era. Flappers, bobbed hair and beads, lots of beads, were in style. The square glass beads were rescued from a necklace that saw one too many parties, but was loved and saved.

I combined the multi colored Czech glass with seed pearls, sterling spacer beads and a sterling toggle clasp. It is a unique combination of classic and modern.

One thing I love about the piece is since has blues,earth colors, greens, red, black, and of course white pearls it can be worn with many different outfits. It can be worn when you are dressed up or wearing jeans.

The length of the necklace is 17in. Why? so that you can double it up and wear it as a bracelet (tightness may vary depending on your wrist size) The heart and arrow toggle clasp can be worn in the front, side or behind. Your choice. The square glass beads are 1/4in wide.

This is a one of a kind necklace. Literally I only made one.
