The pendant is made entirely of PMC (precious metal clay or silver
clay), using 18 gauge wire and a sterling setting for the blue topaz
gemstone. We saw this beautiful pendant on the Internet and, of course,
in the movie and thought it would be nice to make one for our Mom, who
is a huge Lord Of The Rings fan! Shauna's.
Country road, take me home! Handcrafted fine silver hearts are woven
into a cobra braid made of Greek natural leather. Sterling silver wire
is wrapped at each end, incorporating a sterling lobster clasp and ring. Great,
comfortable weight. Can you see it? Jeans or denim skirt with boots,
and a button-down shirt with sleeves rolled up to frame this gorgeous
bracelet adorning the wrist. Of course, that's just our vision! The largest
heart is just about 1".
I made my husband one of these Silver on Leather bracelets with the
organic design and he never takes it off! My youngest son wanted one
so I had him draw his own design. It turned out pretty good!
I bought 2 of these beautiful turquoise cabs and stared at them for
the longest time before deciding to set it in this simple, yet classic,
setting. The base is Argentium sterling so it will resist tarnishing
and the bezel is fine silver. I made the bail from Argentium sterling
silver, balling the wire on each end and wrapping around 3 times. The
chain is sterling cable with a sterling lobster clasp.
Double strands of Grade A turquoise beads, silver beads and a strand
of natural deep red bamboo coral beads are strung with our own handcrafted
charms, the signature star and square clasping charm. Sterling silver
corrugated and oxidized beads enhance this beautiful bracelet that's
loaded with high-quality turquoise. Finished with a pretty and feminine
S-hook, this bracelet will look gorgeous any time of the year! Lisa's.
Shauna made this bracelet for her husband Matt when he caught his
first big bull red down on Bolivar. The plate is 14 grams of .999 pure
silver that feels excellent with just the right weight on the wrist.
It is securely held on a 4mm brown round leather cord and finished with
Shauna's fabricated sterling silver side findings and a sterling twist
clasp. The plate measures about 1.5". Thicker bracelets like this clasp
to a smaller size, so we suggest fitting a strip of paper around the
wrist, then measuring the strip for an accurate fit.
With this piece we found a new way to showcase the gorgeous Sleeping
Beauty turquoise cabochon, which was originally purchased by our Dad.
These stones are so beautiful that we really needed a cool way to show
them off! The pendant, made of fine silver, is a touch over 1" square
and swings from a 20" unseamed snake chain. Sterling silver lobster clasp.

Just some simple sterling silver bars, made more special by the brilliant
shine and the slight curve at the bottom. These were made as a perfect
match for our Icicle necklace. The sleek bars on these earrings are approximately
5/8" long and hang from sterling ball-end French earwires. Shauna's.
I have no idea what inspired me to make the "screened in" pendants.
I guess I would have to say I was trying to design a pendant that was
unusual and very different. The name took a while but ultimately the
piece reminded me of a window screen and it just stuck. The frame is
crafted in fine silver and the screen of sterling silver wire, balled
on each end. The 6mm amethyst stone sits in a sterling silver prong setting
and the pendant hangs from an 18" sterling silver cable chain. Pendant
size is just under 1 1/2" from wire tip to tip. Rectangular sterling
silver clasp. Lisa's.
Here is the same pendant but with a peridot stone set in the opposite
corner. I was very pleased with how these pendants turned out - truly
unique! The 6mm peridot stone is set in a sterling silver prong setting
and the pendant hangs from an 18" sterling silver cable chain. Pendant
size is just under 1 1/2" from wire tip to tip. Rectangular sterling
silver clasp. Lisa's.
Evoking a mysterious quality is always desirable in a work of art,
no less a piece of fine jewelry. The Shadowbox is made of sterling silver,
the interior shapes from precious metal clay (PMC). The simple architectural
lines of this piece (21mm x 36mm, just under an inch wide) are highlighted
by the simple unseamed snake chain. Rectangular clasp follows through
on the design. 18" length. Shauna's.
These unique and fun earrings were made on the spur of the moment,
my usual method! They measure 3 inches long, not including the handmade
ear wires; perfect for a long, slender neck. Made of fine silver and
resembling a straw with overlapping edges, the bottom edge is left natural
and uneven. The design features a tiny heart, and peeking out of the
bottom are copper and sterling headpins. The earring has a lovely soft
matte finish, except for the shiny sterling balls on the headpins, and
a slight dark patina makes the details stand out beautifully. Fun and
entirely unique, these straws may look heavy but they are not! Lisa's.
