| <<Melora's focal point is this beautifully Hand-crafted Sterling Silver Flower. I created using a variety of hypoallergenic Sterling Silver components. It was inspired by one of my favorite plants, the Chinese Lantern. It created a very "Asian" feel, so I added these Swarovski Crystal pearls, which resemble Tahitian pearls to complete the look. This design also features Hypoallergenic Sterling Silver components, Swarovski Simulated Pearls and Crystals. The necklace is strung on Soft Touch beading wire, which is 7 strands of stainless steel encased in nylon. The design also includes an adjustable clasp which allows it to be worn at 16in. or 18 in. I welcome Special orders for longer necklaces but they cost a little more. |
| There is something very feminine about these hollow Sterling Silver beads. They have a lacy design. I couldn't resist using Swarovski Simulated Pearls combined with Their crystals. I've added liquid silver beads in between and have strung this piece on Soft-Flex(49 strands of stainless steel encased in nylon). |
| -There is nothing delicate about the way April grabs and holds peoples' attention. This very dainty and feminine pieces with its roses has an understated elegance. |
| -Colleen is two pieces in one because it is a lariat. It can be worn as pictured with the strands doubled or the long way. The finished length is 45". You can place a custom order for a shorter version. I'm willing to take a custom order for this piece in 14kt Gold or Gold-filled |
| I love the juxtaposition of the LASER-cut Sterling Silver beads, which look like silver sand and twinkle like silver stars with rough edged Crystal Quartz chips. These components create a piece which features a strong contrast in textures. The rest of the piece features Swarovski Crystals and Sterling Silver beads with a smooth finish. The length is adjustable from 16in- 18in. The piece is strung on Soft Touch beading wire. |
| My Susie Necklace was inspired by this Sterling Sliver Frame and these square, hollow Sterling Silver beads all created by Bill Rerich of Pegasus Imports. This piece also features Swarovski Simulated Pearls adorned by more crystals. |
| This is Grace. She was inspired by this beautifully detailed, hollow Sterling Silver ring designed by one of my suppliers. The center of the ring has been filled with a beautiful Czech hand blown, hand painted lamp work bead that has 22KT gold on the inside. I love asymmetry and I use it to add visual interest to as many pieces as I can. This piece is composed of hypoallergenic Sterling Silver (beads and chain), Swarovski Crystals, Czech lamp work beads(hand painted with 22KT gold in the center) and fresh water pearls. An adjustable clasp has been added. The shortest chain is adjustable from 18 in. to 20 in. The longest chain goes from 19 in. to 21in. This piece can be worn on the outside of a blouse (shirt), under the collar allowing the rest of the necklace to drip down the front. I wanted to create something to compliment not over power what you're wearing but I love using the larger beads in the first strand and gradually using the smaller ones. |
| -Victoria is a piece that was inspired by my love of Antique and Vintage Jewelry design.It is a little more elaborate than Anne yet I kept the overall look very delicate. I have combined Sterling Silver beads created by Bill Rerich of Pegasus Imports with Beads designed by Nina Cooper of Nina Designs, Swarovski Simulated Pearls and Crystals. |

Elegant Delicacies Necklace Collection
| This is Mia, a collection of some of the most beautiful beads available. I have combined Venetian Hand Blown glass beads created by an American Artist, who has a studio in Venice, Italy. Hollow Artisan Sterling Silver Repousse and other patterned Sterling Silver beads add some visual interest to the necklace. I've added Onyx, Swarovski Crystals and Czech pressed glass beads to carry the colors of the Venetian glass beads throughout the necklace. The black links are coated with a black metal sealant and the links have hash marks created by LASER She started out as a simple multi-strand necklace. Oh well, this is what happens when I try to do that! The inspiration for this piece came from a strand of black chain. I always use supplies that are hypoallergenic (Nickel-free) in all my Wire Wrapped" pieces. I wanted to use this chain but I needed to find a supplier who carried a chain that had a coating on it that was permanent. Once I did, I was able to play with the idea for a multi strand piece. I don't make these very often so it was a challenge to balance each strand to create the vision I had in my head with my hands. Here is the result. The first version was three strands which were not connected but The largest glass bead made the piece off balance, somehow. So, I played with a variety of ideas and here is the result. The finished necklace is adjustable between 22in. and 24in. |
