Labradorite pendant

In hnour of spring, I would like to showcase one of my latest wire wrapped pieces.

At the center of the weave is a beautiful labradorite crystal from India, playing in hues of blue and green. If the light is just right one can almost see a galaxy within.

The stone is wire wrapped with tarnish resistant silver plated copper wire.

The design is as unique as the stone, organically created, directed by the nature of the crystal.

If you wish to wear it, you can find it in my Etsy store. Click to shop

Sacred geometry pendants

All these handmade pendants are now available in my Folksy store.

They were inspired by my trip to Egypt and in some way represent some of the thoughts, impressions experiences in a geometrical form.

I used a pyrography pen to create the designs on wooden blanks.

Some of the designs are available more than once, but some will be one of a kind pieces.

FOLKSY STORE

Pyrography afternoon

Have you ever tried pyrography? I guess many have not.

This Saturday I picked up my “pen” and started etching.

Pyrography is basically using a heated metal nib to etch designs into wood.

Last year, I picked up a bunch of wooden blanks in the craft shop, thinking that I could create some “pucks” with designs on them to include them as presents with my other pendants.

This week however I reconsidered that idea and instead I decided to turn them into pendants.

Each wooden pendant is double sided, and have geometric patterns on them. The intention was to use geometry to create beauty, just like in nature. Some patterns repeat themselves, as I believe more people may need these codes in their lives, some will stay as unique pendants.

The collection is available in my Folksy store.

Join me as we create a beautiful world, one geometry at the time.

The earrings have a sterling silver ear wire.

Pink opal pendant

 

This simple yet elegant silver pendant is made using 0.99 silver wire. 7g of wire was intertwined for a simple elegant design.

The centre stage is taken up by a delicate pink opal sourced from SaraGemsCo (Etsy) – country of origin -India. Sarah had this to say about the pendant “You are really a great and skilled artist. You really made this pendant a beautiful art piece. You turned only wires and a cabochon into a pendant without any silver welding joints. We really appreciate your Work. We know it takes so much time, work and skill. Hats Off to your Beautiful Work. “

Due to the delicate colouring of the stone; I wanted to create a simple design to showcase the beauty of the gem.

The piece will come in an organza bag for safe storage and a 21 inch silver plated chain free of charge.

*Though I used silver wire for this piece; like all metals silver will age; so please cleaning gently with no harsh chemicals.
Preferably do take it off prior to a shower or a bath; as it may tarnish the wire.
Always rotate your jewellery pieces; wearing one item all the time may tarnish the piece; having different pendants on creates a new look.

Christmas collection

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

This amazing limited edition collection was available to buy on my Etsy Christmas 2017.

A new collection will be created for 2018.

As I believe in recycling all stones will be given a new lease of life.

Hand painted wearable art

The following pendants are made from sediment stones; picked up from the shores of the island of Crete; in Greece.

To complete the design I have hand painted each stones using acrylic paints and for durability they have all been coated with clear varnish.

Botryolite collection

These beautiful pendants are recycling botryolite gem stones into individual pieces. All pendants are wire wrapped by hand using tarnish resistant silver plated copper wire; or tarnish resistant red copper wire. Some designs are simple; just the bortyolite and wire but some are incorporating other gem stones; beads or sea glass.

Below is the collection incorporating these pendants:

Lapis lazuli elegance

The stone itself was the inspiration for this piece; the webbing and detail allows for the stone to be center stage. It is bold and delicate at the same time.

The design was a fluent inspirational work; often when I pick up a stone it is impossible to know what the end piece will look like. it may mean that it will start off as a simple design and it evolves along the way. Sometimes I create something then just to cut it all up and start again. Often something that starts off as simple; requires additional twists and turns for the final piece to emerge.

Wire wrapping makes each piece individual; I do not use templates to create the pieces; they evolve organically through the process of wrapping. Each piece takes a number of hours to complete; whilst each wrap is done by hand..

Lapis lazuli has always been a precious commodity. In the time of Leonardo DaVinci; Michelangelo and decades previous the color blue was obtained by crushing the stone and turning it into a vibrant color. If you were able to have blue in your painting back in those days it meant you were rich. Or as one musician said at one point “rich beyond your wildest dreams”.

The elegance of this pendant reminds me of those days long gone; when elegance was the word of the day; you can buy it on Folksy.

Jade silver pendant

This delicate pendant was conceived from the desire of incorporating precious metals into my wire wrapping.

The silver wire is .99 pure. in total there are 6 g of silver wire incorporated in the design. The stone itself is also a semi precious stone – jade. A beautiful stone which plays in hues of light green and blue green veins.

The delicate features of the webbing would make it a perfect compliment to an evening attire; would go perfectly with that delicate “black number” that all women have in their wardrobe. Of course as the design is avant garde; boho chic – it can compliment your smart casual style too.

If you wish to own this delicate pendant – visit my Etsy shop – click here

Flowery labradorite

This intricate pendant is made from tarnish resistant silver plated copper wire.

The stone is a labradorite gem stone playing in hues of green blue and grey.

The labradorite gem stone is 2.5 cm; whilst the full pendant is 7 cm in height.

The elegant pendant would work perfectly as part of an evening attire; though given its classical look – can also match any elegant office look.

Any of my pieces can be worn both as part of a relaxed day time as well as a more formal ensemble.

(A pendant of this dimension and intricacy take several hours to complete; the stone is recycled from another chain go labradorites; and may have minor imperfections; the design evolved organically as I tried to encapsulate the stone; therefore this pendant is unique and will not be able to be reproduced in the same manner; as the stone will be different and the wrapping will also differ. If you wish to own it; you can be sure that it will be one of a kind)

**A NOTE: Wire wrapping is a genre of jewelry which requires pliable wire to be shaped into each piece. As a piece progresses, the wire hardens and it will retain it’s shape, however if you try to bend it or it gets squished, it will bend.
Do not place your wire wrapped jewelry in a purse or pocket. :)

**Note: though all silver plated pieces are made from tarnish resistant wire; it may age; as most metals do. Mild soap and water shouldn’t damage the finish, however I do recommend removing your jewelry before showering or bathing; using household cleaners, chemicals, or essential oils; doing manual jobs like gardening or washing dishes; and applying lotions. Do not use jewelry cleaners on this jewelry. Sometimes the plating can wear off with excessive use – therefore I recommend not wearing the pieces every day. Rotating your beautiful jewelry pieces creates a new look for you; and changes your mood for that day.

Angelite and coral heart

This intricate pendant is made using the wire wrapping technique. Tarnish resistant copper wire encases two light blue angelite beads, a beautiful red coral bead and a black and red Swarovski crystal.

This item can be worn as part of you daytime attire, would also compliment your evening outfit.

This item comes packaged in a gold organza bag for safe keeping.

Jade feathered pendant

This intricate pendant is wire wrapped in tarnish resistant silver plated copper wire.

The gem stone is a translucent semi precious green Jade stone. Due to the translucency of the stone photographing the true colour was tricky; the stone has silver veins running through it; giving the pendant a unique look pending on the light.

The size of the pendant will look amazing on a long chain (included). The pendant comes packaged in a gold organza bag; for safe storage.

Shea shell and pearl pendant

Sea shell pendant

(price included postage and packaging; 24" silver plated chain; comes in a handy storage pouch - international shipping)

£31.00

This pendant is hand made using a sea shell that I found on the shores of the ocean in Portugal. The town of Cascais was an ideal place to collect shells on the sandy beaches. True it takes some searching to find inspiring items; but when you find it – it just allows for imagination to flow. due to the shimmering light of the shell – i felt introducing a pearl in the pendant would create a story for this piece.

The shell has been coated with clear varnish to preserve it from the effects of the atmosphere. Nestled in the wire wrapping is a cultured pearl. The wire wrapping is made using tarnish resistant silver plated copper wire.

The pendant is reversible; if can be used either with the pearl showing or its back of the shell. This pendant would suit anyone who like eco jewelry or jewelry made from up-cycled materials.

Beach inspired collection

So at the start of my jewelery making adventure I used stone and shells to create some pieces. Since then my brother brought me some lovely stones back from Rhodes in Greece.

I traveled to Portugal recently, where i was inspired by their local vendors to go back to using natures jewels.

I too have picked up sea glass, stones, drift wood and shells, this time spilled out by the ocean waves.

The challange now is how to encase them in beautiful wire wrapped ornaments.

If you wish to see my past items inspired from the sea, you can admire or purchase them on my Etsy page. Round stone; Dual shell; Shell double clef; Green sea glass and brass pendant; Marble sea stone; Sea stone and heart crystal

Keeping our world clean and tidy is very important, shame that when we walk along the beautiful beaches across the globe -shells are not the only items we see. Our environment is precious, we can only live on this planet -look after it well.

The amethyst as a stone it has some mystical healing powers if one believes in this:

Amethyst is a meditative and calming stone which works in the emotional, spiritual, and physical planes to promote calm, balance, and peace. It is also used to eliminate impatience. (http://meanings.crystalsandjewelry.com/amethyst/)

The pendant shape was directed by stone. As in most of my items design comes second. The shape of the stone and the mood on the day creates the style the embellishment and the final look of the item. The creative element comes in at every stage of the piece development; this intricate design is unique and I will not be able to reproduce it.

This particular pendant took me approximately 7 hours to complete involving a number of meters of wiring. The final item resembling a flower with a purple heart; in fact the amethyst itself resembles the shape of a human heart.

This piece would be an amazing gift with a meaning.

._____________________________________________________________________

This piece came about whilst trying to re-produce a drawing of mine.In fairness the drawing would lend itself perfectly to a soldered piece and as I have not learned that technique i tried to reproduce it in wire.

The pendant has 5 overlapping layers; each weaved on its own and then attached one on top of the other. It is build up to have a three dimensional feel to it. The core has an Obsidian black shard suspended on wire.

it is indeed a statement piece at 6 cm X 5 cm it hangs well on a longer chain; and can compliment any day time or evening attire.

It is unique as the same patterns will not be able to be reproduced; even if i tried to create it again the shape the size the webb will be different; just as our lives is different from one day to the next

The dimensions of the pendant are as follows:  length: 8cm/ 3.1 inch ; width: 3cm/ 1.2 ich

__________________________________________________________________________

The inspiration for this pendant came by using a tutorial. Yes I try to see how others are doing things to gain insight into methods of wrapping.

The intricate weaving and shapes were dictated by the wires and the beads; and it allowed me to lose myself in the detail when making it. By the time the pendant was finished it dawned on me that it could be linked up with the steampunk fashion trend; due to the curvy and circular lines of the weave.

As it is a hand made object; re-creating an exact replica will be impossible; which is why it is a unique piece of jewelry.

This item will look nice on a long hanging necklace and can be worn during the day or as part of a night outfit.

The winner’s medal – a silver plated and red copper pendant

_________________________________________________________________

These pendants came to be mostly because i have a myriad of individual beads which can’t be made into full necklaces for the lack of symmetry. It is like having that odd sock you can’t ware; similarly odd beads are much harder to incorporate; therefore each one of them now has a new life.

Can be worn as part of day time or evening ware.

_________________________________________________________________

The pendant itself is up-cycled from a botryolite chain. I felt that each stone should have its own setting rather than just being hung on one thread; therefore each stone will be changed into unique pendants, weaved in different shapes.

The pendant can be worn either with the full stone showing or the weaving taking center stage. Can be worn using a silver or copper chain; will look amazing worn as a day time pendant or as part of your evening ware.

The amethyst stone inspired the pendant.

Due to its conic shape and manner in which a drilled whole was situated I knew that it needs to be suspended; in order to showcase its beauty.

The design evolved through a composite of wire weaving styles; if you look closely a variety of intricate patterns emerge.

The size of the amethyst and shape also made for a number of pendant sizes;  the wire wrapping matched the stone size and shape.

These pendants will be a wonderful treat for anyone who likes over-sized jewellery.

_____________________________

The inspiration for the stone came from the unusual shape. It is almost like a teardrop. Wrapping the copper wire landed itself to have an asymmetrical spheroid wrap at the top. The wire wrapped circles naturally fit into the curvature of the gem.

The inspiration for this piece again came from the raw material. I knew that the stone needed to be painted as the surface would have rubbed off on the wearer. AS the base stone was red; the overcoat needed to maintain the same colour. The nest step was working out how to encapsulate it in the wiring. The top side just evolved naturally to create the piece before you.

The main shell I found it on the shores in Kimmeridge – South of England. I knew then that the only way to use it is to have something else suspended inside it. This gave birth to the piece you see before you. The trickiest part was working out how to attach the second shell inside so as to have the illusion as if one floats inside the other.

Healing properties according to gem therapy:

Agates are grounding stones, bringing about an emotional physical and intellectual balance. They aid in centering and stabilizing physical energy. Agate has the power to harmonize yin and yang, the positive and the negative forces that hold the universe in place. A soothing and calming stone, agate works slowly but brings great strength. Its multiple layers can bring hidden information to light.

Copper wire wrapped seashell

This pendant is made from a sea shell found on the coast of Britain at Kimmeridge. It is glazed with polish for durability. The wire is red copper; holding the shell in place.

Kimmeridge is an area in the South of the UK where the whole coast is full of sedimentary rock and you are able to see ammonites everywhere.

The presence of fossils inspired me to create this pendant. It is special because it is made from natural materials.

The pendant will look great with a silver or copper chain.
