This is a pair of sparkling Peridot earrings with a petite and rustic design.
The silver is shaped around the Peridot and is in a clean and stylish design but I have left some marks that come up when soldering to give the earrings a natural look.

"Electro Metal" a wrist watch by designer Daniel Jakobsson. Looks cool on the wrist and kinda futuristic too!
But rarely will the wearer admit that it's not "that" easy to tell the time at first glance :P Does take some effort for sure!

Eltham Palace (1933-1936) - Art Deco entrance hall
See location of room in palace here:

The original Eltham Palace was a medieval moated palace which had been the childhood home of Henry VIII, that, having fallen into disrepair, was transformed in a glorious Art Deco home for the Courtauld family.
Perhaps the most dramatic interior is the entrance hall, created by the Swedish designer Rolf Engströmer. Its walls are lined with blackbean veneer and decorated by Jerk Werkmäster (SWE, October 1, 1896, Utanåker, Rättvik - April 11, 1978 i Rättvik) with marquetry that includes figures of a Viking holding a halberd standing opposite a Roman soldier holding a pike, set against background scenes from Italy and Scandinavia.

Don´t you just love the spring when the sun is shining, birds are singing, it starts to get greener outside and the rosebuds are waking up after their winter rest.
When I made this ring I had that view in my mind. It is a little set of three rosebuds made of three rough rubies and sterling silver.
Shiny Luck is a pair of shiny earring in a shape just like a horse shoe.
They are made in a clean and elegant design perfect for everyday wear and will look gorgeous to any outfit.
The black and green containers on the upper shelf were a design winner and apparently a huge success. They are portable toilets for women, supposedly designed to fit in one's handbag.

Producing over 200 patterns between 1909 and 1950, Franks's designs defied contemporary sensibilities by offering a welcome contrast to the linear, grid-like restrictions that defined modernism, the Bauhaus and others. "Every human needs a certain degree of sentimentality to feel free," Frank said... "Away with the universal styles, away with the equalization of industry and art." www.scandinaviandesign.com/josefFrank/
