This is the second version Of Dressed Up for Dinner in a pendant form

Geode halves, sterling and fine silver

By completing this custom order, I had a chance to revisit my wirewrapping and stringing past :-)

I don't normally make this type of jewelry anymore, unless I get a specific request. The wirewrapped ring is made according to Eni Oken's tutorials.

This one was published in Bead Trends magazine: akacontrariwise.blogspot.com/2008/04/bead-trends-magazine...

Inspired by Vermeer's beautiful painting of Girl with a Pearl Earring. These Pearl earrings is classic and elegant at the same time. These pearl earrings will be a lovely addition to your ears.

Wow, this color is nothing short of amazing. Call it cobalt, call it royal, by any name it's sure to dazzle. The striking chalcedony gemstones are wire-wrapped in 14k gold fill and suspended from gold vermeil hammered marquise hoops - featuring just enough texture for interest, but not to distract from the focal gems. Secure 14k gold filled leverback ear wires complete the ensemble.

A pendant made of sterling and fine silver with tiger eye stones. The cabochon is 8mm in diameter. Making symmetrical pieces is a challenge :)

Here are some of my wire wrapped rings I just listed in my etsy shop.

Yes I've had these since June 2008 BUT BUT BUT I'm chosen to work with my amazing, exquisite, specially-crafted-for-Sheela-based-on-Sheela's-specifications Jennifer Morris artisan clay beauties to kickstart 2009.

The new year will begin, for me, with a series of pretties made with these.

Part of my Bordello Queen Collection.
