I was at a loss for a name for this but thought the loops looked a bit like the breasts on the famous Artemis statue (half down the page here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis) so that's what I called it *shrug*.
Sterling silver 1mm hammered wire, 1mm wire 4mm ID & 0.8mm wire 2.6mm ID Euro 4in1 & Byzantine, 0.4mm wire for the rose quartz round and briolette beads.
These dainty earrings are full of color with a mix of briolettes in different shades: green amethyst, pink topaz, pink amethyst, lemon topaz, citrine and blue topaz. These pretty earrings hang from a 14K gold filled ear wire.
Walk on the side of paradise and come fly with me to Verde Island.
Thrill with me at the orgasmic sight of a floral utopia. Allow the cerulean sky to strike you speechless as you inhale the scent of an au naturale world and are utterly intoxicated.
Glittering clusters of Swarovski Crystals featuring a rainbow Aurora Borealis shine crown Rondelles of Brazilian Apatite and Colombian Emerald. Within these gem-encrusted circlets gently sway F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S Turquoise Briolettes. Carved Oro Verde Quartz Leaves complete the fresh look of flora, fauna and water.
Come, Verde Island awaits.
{{ incidentally, Verde Island *does* exist. It lies along the bodies of the Verde Island Passage found between the provinces of Batangas and Oriental Mindoro in Luzon, The Philippines }}
Fly With Me To Verde Island tumbles approximately 2.5" downwards from 14K Gold Filled Filigree Ear Posts. All wires and chains used are 14K Gold Filled.

Stunning Anodized Aluminium Wings grab your attention and simply won't let go. They're really gorgeous, in soothing yet arresting shades of Olivine, Umber, Matte Gold and Peridot with hints of Aubergine and Peach.
I've tried to accent those divine hues with Aluminium Roses in Purple and Baby Blue; Swarovski Crystals in Rose AB2X and Mint Alabaster; Vintage Lucite Beads in Cranberry and Lavender; Vintage Swarovski Crystal Connectors in Chalk Pink; a pair of 24K Gold Plated Clear Crystal Charms; more bling in the form of Rhinestone Chains; and some really pretty Blue Leaf Charms.
Topping everything off are beautiful Green Tourmaline Nugget Briolettes. Scrumptious.
For my Prêt-à-Porter Boutique, Her Alter Ego.
My over ambitious mind went into overdrive this week! I came up with 2 ideas for the SPRING theme. This one is called Confetti! It features a Large Pink Amethyst Briolette, a sterling silver circle charm that I handmade and handstamped (with a tiny Lemon Topaz oval briolette), and a wirewrapped circle of gemstones (pink amethyst, scallopite, pink tourmaline, iolite with a single large london blue topaz rondelle).
A huge (25 x 15 mm), silky smooth beautiful blue chalcedony briolette secured inside a 14k GF teardrop frame which has a fringe of faceted aqua tone apatite brios. A little cluster of bronze keishi petal pearls adorn the top of the teardrop and a cluster of neon blue apatite rondells connect the pendant to a 14k goldfilled chain which is dotted with more apatite and a few shaded prehnite rondells.....
A truly romantic and beautiful heart necklace. This glass lampwork heart was handmade by me in the flame. Layers of black and white with a streak of shimmering dichroic all coated in clear for added depth and beauty.
This heart has been wired onto a solid sterling silver bail with sterling silver wire. Dropping below the heart is a beautiful faceted rutilated quartz onion briolette wire wrapped with a very fine gauge sterling wire. I love this heart!
Including the bail, heart drops down about 2.5 inches from the center of the chain. The heart itself measures almost 2 inches in width and length.
What do you do when your Muse demands a Hula skirt to dress up in? You obey.
A piece of vintage tasselled fringe from my Auntie’s stash is adorned with a plethora of yummy gems. There are lovely faceted briolettes of Prasiolite (Green Amethyst), zingy Peridot and gorgeous gold shimmering Citrine. And woven in between you find faceted rondelles of even more Peridot and of amazing sky blue Aquamarine. I have wrapped all of these beauties to a wavy length of coiled sterling silver that is snaking its way through the trimming. And to finish it off I added some of my – if I may be so bold as to call them “signature” - woven leaves.
My Muse is happy playing with her new skirt.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The fringe is 5cm (2”) wide and will fit a wrist 15-21cm (6”-8”) and the silver wire snaking through the trimming is very flexible and will shape itself around your wrist
The fringe is very soft and probably made from cotton silk or similar and most likely from the 70s. After wearing – of if being stored by laying on the fringe - the fringe may get bent but that can easily be corrected by holding the bracelet over a pan of boiling water and steam the fringe. Sounds crazy, I know, but it works. Let it cool off for a few minutes before putting it on. And may I suggest a tool, for example some kind of kitchen utensils, to avoid heat injuries?
Sterling silver 1mm wire 3&6mm ID with round Labradorite beads, briolette cut natural Chalcedony and fancy cut Quartz.
I handmade the frame that holds the AAA Smooth Lemon Topaz Briolette. I then meticulously wirewrapped hair fine guage 14/20 goldfilled wire around the whole frame. Clusters of the finest gemstones decorate the bottom: London Blue Topaz (a huge full briolette hangs at the bottom with tons of rondelles), Swiss Blue Topaz (check out that huge nugget at the bottom as well as the other shaped briolettes), and Champagne Freshwater pearls. The whole necklace is super regal and beautiful!
The high quality thick 14/20 goldfilled chain is of premium quality and weight. As an extra touch, a gold filled swirl and a cluster of gemstones hangs assymetrical on the chain!
The gemstones just sparkle and they are so perfect!
The pendant measures 2 1/4 inches long and almost 1 1/4 inches wide. The length of the necklace measures 16-17 inches long with another London Blue Topaz briolette hanging off of the extender.
Here's a peek at my Fall/Winter 2008 Collection...

Caught in a tangled web..an uptown girl shares with her uptown friends....."he's a diamond in the rough".....you can hear a pin drop and then the giggling begins....tell us more, tell us more.....this gorgeous looking polished gem of a briolette is nothing more than a ruby tone quartz crystal BUT caught in the company of more poised and cultured gems like real rubies, iolites, tanzanites, amethysts,moonstones and prehnites, this handsome centerpiece can pass off as a ruby replica irrespective of any careless whispers that might be making its way thru' the uptown grapevine. All wirework, pins and chain are sterling silver. Ends with a sterling silver lobster clasp and measures approx 15" whilst the centerpiece drops at approx 1.5" Affordable luxury!
This asymmetrical necklace was created for the Wire Artisans Guild's Earth Day Challenge. The theme chosen for this project was "au naturale."
This necklace was handcrafted out of sterling silver wire, chain, and components. It features a four flowers crafted out of faceted moonstone briolettes and freshwater cultured pearls.
This necklace is 17" with a 3" extender, so it can be worn at any length between 17" and 20". However, I will be happy to adjust it if need be! :)
This OOAK piece will be available at the Wire Artisans Guild Team Store! Our team store will be opening on April 22, 2008!
Devil in a blue dress, that famous blue dress. Men would gawk with their Southern accents, "my, she's prettier than a peacock." She sauntered through the room and painted the entire room that drowning blue.
Beautiful antique (1930s) brass metal tag with the number "38" cut out of it. On a vintage 1940s mesh chain. I've added a aqua glass briolette and a freshwater pearl to compliment the patina on the brass.
The bracelet is 7.75inches/19.5cms.
The brass tag is 1.25inches/3.25cms.
Happy New Year from the girls at La Briolette!

It was weeks ago since I oxidised any of my pieces. And this time I tried LOS for the first time - and oh my did it get black fast!!!
It was harder to polish I think. Maybe it´s time to invest in that tumbler...:)
Any advice, folks, what to think of if I do buy one???
Ah, These earrings will warm your heart... :) The glass lampwork beads were handmade by me in the flame. Beautiful shades of slate blue, coffee brown, caramel and golden beige are mixed throughout these beads. The beads have been annealed in a kiln to ensure strength and longevity.
The beads were the inspiration for the colors of the gems used in these earrings. Each glass beads is carefully wrapped in fine sterling silver wire from top to bottom. at the very top and bottom center are sparkling tiny faceted citrine rondelles which have also been wrapped in wire.
Dangling in clusters along the bottom of the beads are luscious faceted citrine cubes (2 on either side of each earring), luminesent freshwater keshi pearls, faceted beer quartz rondelles and a faceted beer quartz heart briolette. The gems used in these earrings are all AAA quality.
The earrings hang down about 1.25 inches from the base of the solid sterling silver interchangeable earwires. These earrings are very elegant and chic and feel so good on! YUM! :)
I stumbled upon a photo on Flickr by www.stuckincustoms.com and was so moved by the photo. It is amazing! The photo reminds me that even after the worse storm, a beautiful calm and peace will exist.
So, whether you're weathering a storm or just having a bad day, remember that there's an end in sight and things always have a way of working out for the best.
These earrings are made out of 14/20 gold filled wires and formed into a marquis shape. Fine guage gold filled wires were wirewrapped over the form and Mystic Blue Quartz rondelles were added to the interior. On the bottom, is a lush cluster of more Blue Quartz rondelles and tiny Gray Blue freshwater pearls. At the very bottom is a large Blue Quartz heart briolette.
The earrings measure 1/2 inch wide and 2 inches high (from the top of the earwires to the bottom of the cluster).
The focal of this necklace, are the two very large and very stunning Bi Lemon Smoky Quartz marquise briolettes. They are eye clean and with lovely colouring.
Less is more.
Araceli Necklace
This necklace features a dainty 10" gold-filled chain, with a beautiful, cascade of blue apatite rondelles and whisky topaz briolettes and a wire wrapped frame with more rich blue apatite rondelles and a larger whisky topaz briolette (this focal piece is 2 1/2" long).

Finally I managed to take part again to a week challenge of the Wire Artisan Guild! This week theme, chosen by Emin Jewelry, was Waterfall.
These copper earrings have been created with a different style compared with my other jewels.
To produce the cascade effect I used several copper chains of different sizes, enriched with beautiful gems and beads: AAA quality carnelian micro-facted teardrop briolettes,carnelian micro-facted round beads, fabulous AAA gem quality amethyst faceted marquis briolette beads, A quality amethyst micro-faceted teardrop briolettes , freshwater pearl flat round beads and, finally, white and lavender czech glass baby bell flowers.
On the very top of this beautiful cascade you'll find an antique copper bead cap, for a more antique look.
They're 2.36 inches (6 cm) long - ear wires exlcluded (real copper french wire earring hooks with coil and daisy enriched with an amethyst smooth round bead wrapped in the middle).
An awesome cascade of sparkling and stunning gemstones which truly captures the sunshine!
This is by far one of my favorite designs for earrings. These would be absolutely perfect for a special lady with an August birthday, which has Peridot for a birthstone. Of course, if you ask me, they’re perfect for everyone else, too.
Each earring has five gorgeous Peridot tear briolettes that have been meticulously wrapped in sterling silver wire. They swing effortlessly from dainty silver chains. The stones measure approximately 7 by 10 millimeters each, and between both pairs of earrings have 5 feet of silver wire used. They measure 2 3/4" in length.
Created from boro lampwork beads, hessonite onion briolettes and sapphire rondelles, this is my weekly challenge piece, for the theme of "Passion".

Lyrics:
La la la la, la la la la, la la, la la…
[Verse 1]
Look I don’t want to fight you
You got to know that I meant it when I said that I liked you
Or maybe just the idea
I bought it, don’t want it now return that shit like IKEA
Apologize I’m not a mind reader
I need attention so I try to be a crowd pleaser
It was easy till it got a little deeper now I don’t know how to deal with you so I’ma disappear (poof)
[Chorus]
I’m a ghost, now you see me now you don’t
I’m a ghost, every time you hit the phone
I’m a ghost, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la
Now you see me now you don’t, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la
[Verse 2]
I know it’s inconvenient
To change your background but lets back down so you can see this is a problem I don’t wanna put myself in front of
That's why I blocked you cause I’m not the guy you should rely on
Or spy on, creep on, I don’t know, you just ain’t that type of hoe
If I don’t holler let me go I should have said it but I didn’t and I won’t (poof)
[Chorus]
I’m a ghost, now you see me now you don’t
I’m a ghost, every time you hit the phone
I’m a ghost, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la
Now you see me now you don’t, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la
I know you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me
Cause I been shady, shady, shady, shady, shady
I don’t get reception, missed your call but best believe I got the message
Why don’t you just leave me alone
I think it’s lasted way too long
I thought by now that you would know
But since you don’t
[Chorus]
I’m a ghost, now you see me now you don’t
I’m a ghost, every time you hit the phone
I’m a ghost, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la
Now you see me now you don’t, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la

Fear & Delight by The Correspondents
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABS-mlep5rY
Lyrics:
Oh, but I know you'll cause me grief
Close friends of mine are in disbelief
As they can see what's underneath
Fluttering lashes, red lips and pearly white teeth
I don't show it but I quiver whenever you come near
And I cannot decipher between the thrill and the fear
I want to stop it but I like it too much to let it stop here
It's wrong but I want you tonight
It's not my own volition but I fell in deep
By running the distance I'd been advised to keep
I trot to the wolf as a doting sheep
It's wrong but I want you tonight
Fear and delight
All the way through the night
With a little derring-do
I'll fall in love with you
I'm the little boy that's gonna be getting fingers burned
But I can see this lesson's gotta, gotta, gotta be learned
They say that boys have been destroyed but they weren't
it's wrong but I want you tonight
In any case, my friends, it's too late
Like a moth to light, like a beast to bate
And I know the black widow eats its mate
It's wrong but I want you tonight
Fear and delight
All the way through the night
With a little derring-do
Oh, I'll fall in love with you
Fear and delight
All the way through the night
With a little derring-do
Oh, I'll fall in love with you
I'm an innocent being seduced by your charms
I'm a young boy tickled to death in your arms
Your kisses taste like bitter almonds
It's wrong but I want you tonight
You're an addiction pulling me to a grave end
You're an enemy who I'm keen to defend
Down the black hole of my lust I descend
It's wrong but I want you tonight...
Fear and delight
All the way through the night
With a little derring-do
Oh, I'll fall in love with you
Why is it that I'm keen to be devoured by you
When there's the option of a love affair that's pure and true?
I always choose the dungeon over the sea view
It's wrong but I want you tonight
When I'm out the other side I say never again
But when I'm out and about about I want to find the next vixen
Someone who'll be sure to drive me 'round the bend
It's wrong but I want you tonight
Fear and delight
All the way through the night
With a little derring-do
Oh, I'll fall in love with you
These are all about the burgundy and pink. The glass lampwork beads were handmade by me in the flame. Deep rich burgundy wine spattered across shimmering pink. Each bead has been wrapped from top to bottom in fine sterling silver wire. At the top is a faceted pink amethyst rondelle and at the bottom a rich faceted ruby rondelle. Clustered below are more of the sparkling ruby and pink amethyst rondelles as well as a large smooth glowing pink rose quartz briolette and on either side a faceted sleek rhodolite briolette. All silver has been oxidized to enhance the beauty of the stones and add a feminine touch.
I fought a loosing battle from start with these earrings, I just didn't know it. They proved to be sooo headstrong.
And when I finally caved in and let them guide me, I finished them in no time. A bit wonky on the curls... but hey, I'm not going to argue with them any more.
Funny business this designing jewellery.
