New organic pieces

I guess my love for nature and especially fall really shines through in my work lately. Yesterday I ordered a ton of new cabs, some of them are gorgeous colored druzies, agates and all kinds of jaspers. Most of them are quite small which I will turn into earrings. I realize that I haven't made a lot of earrings for quite a long time. It was really my intention today to make a whole bunch, but I was just sitting there feeling like I have some sort of creative block when it came to thinking up a cool new design. I did however, have no problems making new necklaces.
The one pair of earrings that you see in this batch I had made a couple of weeks ago but had forgotten to take pictures of them. They are awesome ( me thinks ). They come with oval bezel set rainbow moonstones. The patina really makes the blue-ish flash come out in this lovely stones.
They are listed here:






Here we feature a hand sawed birch leaf necklace with a 9mm bezel set mother of pearl cabochon. 





This is the exact leaf that I replicated.


Click here for the listing:


The exact same leaf in copper minus the pearl but with two "drops of dew" from sterling silver.
I lightly oxidized it for a more dramatic and rustic effect. 





Will be available in the shop a little later on today!


And then there is another organic leaf necklace, this one also boasts a bezel set mother of pearl cab. A lovely design and great for everyday wear or to a nice black V-neck.






This adorable lotus pendant necklace is set with a 7mm amber cabochon.
I obviously obsessed with botanical jewelry lately.





Most of these will make it into the shop sometime today. If not, then for sure tomorrow!

Thanks for reading!

I got up early and spend the majority of today in my studio. Never seem to be able to stay out of there for long these days. The muse is calling on me constantly which is a good thing isolated, but at times I can't seem to concentrate on doing other things that need to get done.
I had such a great time sitting behind the bench smithing away and  listening to some new albums I had downloaded from iTunes.
It's been a great and productive week for me in my studio!

Today I crafted two turquoise pieces, one chrysocolla, one agate and a pair of gorgeous amber earrings. The earrings took quite some time to make since I filed each pedal's grooves by hand.  They also go well with my amber necklace that is for sale in my Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/listing/56002687/handcrafted-amber-pendant-necklace

I will be listing these starting this evening local time. Not sure if I will manage to post them all since I also need to finish some overdue housework.


How has your week been so far?
