Grace Adornare - Freshwater Pearls and Swarovski Crystal Ring

A gorgeous combination of freshwater pearls and Swarovski crystal AB bicones, this ring that will adorn your finger with grace! The perfect gift for the bride-to-be or the one you love! The shank of the ring is wrapped in yards of a very fine gauge sterling silver wire, and is very sturdy! After the shank was completed, then I carefully wrapped the pearls and crystals into a dome shape that stands a half an inch above the shank and is 7/8 of an inch in width. The pearls and crystals completely cover the top of your finger in total elegance! The Grace Adornare ring is a size 9 (US), it will be sent to you enclosed in an organza drawstring bag, which is suitable for gift giving or storage!

The Tessa Necklace

Simply elegant OOAK five strand necklace with a beautiful dichroic pendant in shades of blue, and shifts to purple! This 22-1/2 inch long necklace is a real show stopper, and it won a ribbon at the Knox County fair in 2006!

The focal pendant was one of several pieces made in a class at I took at a local art gallery! I love how the dichroic glass just seems to glow in sunlight and it has a little tunnel at the top so the beaded strand just slides through it! The pedant alone is 2-1/8 inches in length and 7/16 at its widest point! Because I did not add the third layer of clear COE 90 dichroic glass, the surface of the pendant has some texture!

Each strand is made of peacock seed beads that are interspersed with faceted jet black Czech and is strung on a professional grade beading wire. At the back, you will find gorgeous sterling silver Bali bead cones and a sterling silver toggle clasp! For a feminine touch, there is a little dangle with Swarovski crystals and a sweet swirl at the bottom! The Tessa Necklace is a OOAK piece that would be a wonderful addition to your jewelry wardrobe! You will find it for sale on Ruebee, just click on the link below and look for the Paypal widget on my page! It will be sent to you enclosed in an elegant silk pouch with a zipper closure, suitable for gift giving or storing! Thank you for looking!

Open up and say ahhh! These cool turquoise earrings were one of those happy accidents that many crafters have! I started out hammering the ends of my sterling silver wire only to find that I had been a bit heavy handed, ugh! The turquoise bead would not slide down far enough on the wire, so I got creative and curled up the end like a lizard's tongue, hence the name!

These handsome earrings are 1-3/4 inches in length from the bend at the top to the curl at the bottom. The 10mm x 6mm turquoise rondelles are a gorgeous shade of sky blue and have lots of tan crackles for interest! They are topped with a 2mm faceted sterling silver beads and hand wrapped sterling silver wire coils.The Serpent's Tongue earrings are a unique pair of earrings and I know you will enjoy wearing them.

Peridot, the birthstone of August babies, is a very old gemstone found in Egyptian and Roman jewelry from ancient times. It has three different names: peridot, chrysolite and precious olivine. The word peridot is derived from the Greek word peridona, which means, "to give richness". It's lovely rich green color, with a touch of gold comes from very fine traces of iron and the intensity of the color is dependant upon the amount of iron present within the stone. Peridot is one of only a few gemstones that come in one specific color, and its color can range from yellowish green to olive and even to a brownish green.


These gorgeous handmade earrings have three different stones woven onto the sterling silver frames: peridot, prehnite and spessartite garnets. You will find more pictures and information about the Precious Olivine earrings by clicking on the link listed below. Thank you for looking!
