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

Silversmithing

Today I made a leap in my jewellery making from wire wrapping to silversmithing.

It has been a dream of mine for the past few years to learn how to solder, and this September (2021) I held the blow torch in my hand for the first time.

These are two silver rings that I made during a “ring in a day” session in November. I love both these concepts, one is very feminine, with a flower, very different from my own style, but somthing I will wear with love. The second ring is geometical, something much more in tune with my logical brain.

I am sharing them today as I feel these two ring are a start to a brand new adventure for me.

You may even have a chance to purchase the geometeical ring at some point in one of my shops. Until then, head over either to http://www.gabriellaszekely.folksy.com or http://www.gabriellaszekely.etsy.com for umique wire wrapped handmade jewellery.

I will be live for 1 hour, talking about the pendants, the earrings, to the sound of some relaxing music.

Modern shell pendant

Another modern and unusual pendant, this time the shell I picked up on the shores of Portugal plays center stage for this one of a kind jewellery piece.

This is available on my ETSY shop: click here

If you want to see the process of how this pendant was made, you can watch it here, a video in two parts.
