Antiqued African Snake Necklace Tribal

I was working on this tribal necklace design and I'm really happy with how it turned out.  Every part of the metal work is completely hand crafted and hand forged.  The .925 sterling silver snake is soldered to the the main necklace piece which is in copper.   I added a beautiful, white Agate stone!   Click here for more info.

Boho Hippie Tribal Dot Textured Copper Ball chain Necklace 18 inches

My jewelry designs are usually a bit heavier and so I decided to start focusing on smaller pieces that are more delicate and dainty for my customers who prefer the smaller pieces.

This cute little pendant is made of recycled copper which I formed and textured, then I made small little balls from a fine silver wire and welded them to the copper.   I really like how it turned out!!  The bead chain compliments this perfectly!  See it here.  I also made the matching earrings.  See them here.

Note on Fine Silver:  Fine silver is 99.9 pure silver.  The difference with sterling is that sterling silver is .925, which means it's an alloy (with copper- that's the reason sterling tends to oxidize quickly).  Fine Silver keeps it's beautiful sheen and hardly oxidizes at all.

Unisex Copper Cow Spot Wide Band Thumb Ring

This wide copper band or thumb ring fits just beautifully!  To make this ring, I took copper that I have forged and I treated it in such a way as to add these funky spots in a contrasting metal and thus the "cow spots" were born.  Another feature of the band is that it is slightly offset while overlapping itself, which gives the impression of two bands in one.   Each ring is different and unique in that it's completely handmade (from cutting out the metal to polishing the end product)!!

The best thing about this awesome wide ring is that it can worn by either women or men.  Ring is available in all sizes. 

I made a matching leather wrap bracelet that is pretty nifty too.  I'm always excited when I can come up with something unique!!!!  See it here.   

I am quite diversified in my creations, you might want to see what I mean by browsing my shoppe here.  I have all kinds of goodies!!

Cow Spots Unisex Black Leather Wrap Bracelet Adjustable

I designed a series of different copper and silver jewelry pieces which you can see here.  The ring is quite unique!  This bracelet is very original, one of a kind (ooak), unisex Leather Wrap Bracelet with gorgeous, forged copper.  I treated the copper in such a way as to make these crazy spots in a contrasting metal, which I call "Cow Spots" because the pattern actually reminds me of the spots on a cow. 

The best thing about this bracelet is that it's adjustable with slip knots (no need to look for your size because it's a one size fits all).  Note that I still added a nice sterling silver clasp to make it easier to remove and put on.  It's best to adjust the slip knots before you attach the clasp. 

All of the components on this bracelet other than the copper, are made of .925 sterling silver.  All of the components are completely handmade for the exception of the clasp and the leather (of course).

I polished the copper, so it looks pretty shiny just now, but in no time, it will gradually change and take on a beautiful, rustic look.  If you prefer to keep it shiny.  I can lacquer the copper for an extra fee.  See this beautiful bracelet in my Shoppe here.

Delicate Gold Trio of Pearls Necklace Gift

I usually make my chains by hand, link by link.  The only problem I have is that it's very difficult to make small, delicate chains and so I usually don't have any dainty necklaces for the ones who prefer smaller jewelry.  But this has all changed now.  I've added to my collection smaller, delicate chains to accomodate every one of my clients...  Here is the first from this collection - Trio of Pearls-  A row of beautiful, lustrous, cultured pearls in a rich creamy-white (non dyed) color on a 14k gold filled, delicate chain with spring loaded clasp.  Measures 16" long (can also be worn at 15").  If you wish a longer chain, please convo me.  This beautiful necklace would make an anwsome gift for that special someone in your life!  This necklace could also be a great accessory for a bride.
