Opal wishes and antique jet dreams - yellow opal and antique jet beads, salvaged from a broken necklace, with gears.

I listed some older pieces at reduced prices in my Etsy Shop, in a new Sale section, as well as posting a selection of new earrings.

I now have all of the prints I matted earlier this year listed in a new photography section.

The garnet/pearl necklace from my last post is now listed here.

With pearls - I found this carved flat of garnet several months ago, and inspiration struck last weekend on what I should do with it. There are three rice pearls and one garnet on each link of the box chain, with three strands of figure-eight sterling chain, finished by a leaf toggle clasp.

Over 50 garnets almost 160 pearls used in the construction

I found this poor parasol at an antique shop a month or two ago. Unlike most of my treasured finds, this one had seen much use in better days. ( The repairs, and more details of the finished product )

I've previously made earrings to order, usually to match a necklace as custom work, but I've decided to start keeping a stock on hand of stand-alone pieces. So, behind the cut are the first twenty or so I've made over the last week. I'll be posting them to my etsy site over the few couple of days.
