Something old | something new

May 5, 2007

i haven’t really had time to make new jewellery, i’ve been so busy lately. yesterday i made a couple pairs of earrings but didn’t manage to take any pictures of them before it was too dark outside. it’s raining today so there’s no point trying to take pics without decent lighting.

 so, i decided that would post some old pics of jewellery i’ve made earlier but haven’t managed to post here :)

here’s a necklace with botswana agates, grey freshwater pearls and sterling silver round beads. the lock and charm are hill tribe silver. the necklace is about 45 cm long and looks very nice, as far as i’m concerned!

necklace and earrings of silver and garnet. necklace is made of round garnet beads and garnet rondelles wich have been used in earrings too. the necklace has hill tribe silver toggle clasp. i really like the hand made feel of the hill tribe silver parts, i think they sit well with my pieces and add that little something with their delicate features.

i also attended wood jewellery course in january, i started quite a lot of pieces there but have not finished but two of them. here’s aalto pendant and leaf brooch which still lacks brooch pin (so much for finishing them ;) )
