This is the only one of the three that is my idea, LOL! It is copper wire that I use to wire wrap sea glass, it is in a coil which I think you can see. Orchid flower in the middle, lights above and a dark background. Very different, LOL! Maybe something out of a bad botanist dream, HAHA!

The semi-precious stones of Labradorite and Natural Agate pair beautifully in this unique wirework ring that has been intricately woven with non-tarnish silver plated copper wire completely around a handcrafted non-tarnish silver copper frame.
Labradorite is a transparent smokey gray stone that when viewed from the proper angle reveals a colorful play of light with intense flashes of blues, violets, and greens that almost seem to glow.

After living with "Joy Remembered" a while, I felt it would better represent joy if it had some color and sparkle: faceted apatite and peridot rondelles, and citrine teardrops (sometimes joy makes me cry).

These earrings, though I made them in Spring of '09, are being listed nearly a year later.
Why such a delay? Well, it's because I love them SO VERY much that I hate the thought of parting. But, I think it's time to let them go [as I stifle a sob].
The title really says it all: these birdies have long aqua dyed tail feathers, 'shark tooth' shaped blue freshwater pearls, freeform bundles of thin gauge red wire, amethyst chips, intricate seed bead work, with shots of teal, black, fuchsia, periwinkle, green-gold and yellow. I'm torn between thoughts of magnificent tropical birds and giant bins of colorful candy.
Gazing at them, I find myself wondering whether I want to cage them as pets or eat them for dessert.

I named this ring after my favorite triptych painting, "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by Hieronymous Bosch. The left panel portrays Adam and Eve in Eden, while the central panel is a panoply of naked human figures engaging in all manor of possible and impossible activities. And, of course, the right panel is a portrayal of the tortures of hell...but that is irrelevant to this beautiful, innocent, and yes- delightful ring.
The garden-scape includes an opal surrounded with rhinestones extracted from the center of a vintage ring, a fresh water pearl, tear drop opalescent Czech glass beads, several varieties of semiprecious stone beads, seed beads, and multiple colors of copper and silver plated wire.
Two roses in two differing shades of pink draw the eye in a line towards the fiery opal.
This one of a kind custom ring is a size 6.
