Winter Snowdrops

I always seem to have huge problems photographing anything with a lot of shiny silver - these in particular were incredibly frustrating! I started these a while ago, I have quite a few unfinished projects that I'm determined this year to complete.

I wrapped a fine silver 'art nouveau' style motif to the coiled wire frames, with peridot briolettes, and fine trace chain drops with tiny seed pearls, and vibrant green chrome diopside. Very shimmery and glamorous!

Pearl and Crystal Bracelet

I love pearls in all shapes and sizes! This bracelet has coin-shaped white freshwater pearls, and the large focal pearl is a Swarovski one called 'Tahitian' in this lovely teal colour. I've also put some faceted smoky quartz beads in here, with some more Swarovski crystal - blue 'Montana', and two gorgeous silver Bali beads. Finished off with a sterling toggle clasp!
