modern ovals

These necklaces use large flat oval stones, I really like the modern look of the shape.  I have some more of these stones not yet made into necklaces.

This necklace is tourmalinated quarts, with a blue-ish color to it, iolite chunks and iolite spacers, with sterling silver.  The iolite is a deep blue color, not quite as dark as it looks in the photo.

 This extravagant necklace has flat aquamarine ovals, with sterling silver.



short necklaces

These are some shorter necklaces, but still bold statements.  I can also make similar styles with lots of other different stones, such as citrine (clear yellow), amethyst (light or dark purple), or even kyanite (opaque blue-green).

This necklace is morganite, plus handmade glass and gold vermeil wavy spacers.

This necklace is green beryl, with gold vermeil spacers.

This necklace is two colors of tourmaline, with sterling silver cubes and spacers.

some long necklaces

These are some extra long necklaces, wearable because they are more lightweight with the spirals.

The first two photos are my own necklace, using handmade glass beads, aquamarine and sterling silver.

I plan to make some smaller necklaces with similar stacking style stones because I really like the look of them.

This is another of my own necklaces, using tourmalinated quartz (the big clear/white ovals with black lines) and tourmaline chunks, with sterling silver.  I have some more of the tourmalinated quartz.  I get lots of compliments on this.

Yes, I guess I do like blue too much, this is another mostly blue necklace - extra long, using aquamarine, handmade glass and sterling silver.

asymmetry accented

Here are some necklaces with noticeable asymmetry.  Balanced but not symmetrical.  Again these have homes already but I can make something similar.

These are stalactite flat stones, and tourmaline chunks, with sterling silver.  The clasp is on the side as part of the decoration of the necklace.

This simple pendant is sterling silver with green beryl.  Sometimes a light, simple pendant is just what you need.

This is tourmaline, with gold-plated tube beads and gold-filled spacer beads.  It's very rare to get this color of tourmaline, but I got a few of them.

This necklace uses handmade glass beads, some with 22k gold fuming (the metallic edge on the rectangle beads), pink tourmaline, and gold-plated and gold-filled spacers and wire.

This necklace uses apatite, amethyst, and handmade glass beads with sterling silver.  I love the color combination and the little bit of asymmetry.

organic stone necklaces

These necklaces already have homes, but I can make something similar.

This is actually 2 necklaces so that they can be worn together or separately.  The pink stones are tourmaline, and I think the blue is topaz, though it could be aquamarine (I made this a long time ago and I forgot what stones I used). And sterling silver.

This is green kyanite with sterling silver, it's so fun to wear, very organic.  Kyanite is pretty affordable for how great it looks.

This necklace is beryl, pink (also known as morganite) and a few green ones mixed in, and sterling silver.  Because the stones are flat, it's pretty lightweight and comfortable to wear.

This is aquamarine, one of my very favorite stones, and sterling silver.  I guess this is organized organic.

blue necklaces, smooth

I guess blue is my favorite so I make a lot in blue.  Here are some blue necklaces.  These are not for sale but I can make something similar. 

These 2 pictures show an extra long necklace, using aquamarine round beads, aquamarine chips, a handmade glass bead, and sterling silver. 

This necklace uses aquamarine rounded beads, with small iolite spacer beads, and sterling silver. It's very lightweight and comfortable with the smooth flat beads.

This necklace is aquamarine, with sterling silver.  It's very fun to wear, an organic and informal look. 

warm color necklaces

Here are some necklaces to show for examples.

This one is a handmade glass pendant, handmade glass bead cubes, sterling silver, and free-form tourmaline nuggets.

This one is a handmade glass pendant, orange handmade glass beads with 22k gold fuming (that's the metallic gold edge on the glass rectangle beads), gold-plated beads, and peridot chunks.

This one is extra long, using handmade glass beads, tourmaline chunks, gold-filled spiral beads, and a gold vermeil toggle clasp.

This one is also extra long, using handmade orange glass beads, tourmaline sticks, and sterling silver.
