This LOVE pendant is truly a one of a kind work of wearable art!
I started out by turning a gorgeous Carnelian Agate into the heart of this pendant and sculpted all the other components around it. The pendant has been generously embedded with copper, which matches the twisted copper wire bail and adorned with delicate sculptures and the word LOVE. Then all the intricate details have been emphasized with the help of metallic mica powders in golden and copper tones.
Length: 2 3/4 inches (6.8 centimeters)
Width: a little short of 2 1/4 inches (5.5 centimeters)
Carnelian carries the healing powers of abundant energy and creativity. It aids trust in one self and one's own perceptions. The Carnelian in this pendant has been charged with Reiki to enhance its metaphysical properties. There's an opening at the back of the pendant, right behind the stone so its energy flows freely to the wearer.

VEGAN turquoise clay and silver pendant with moonstone
A fabulous, creamy white moonstone rests in a pool of turquoise while the word VEGAN floats by its side. Spirals made of fine silver wire and metallic mica powders adorn the pendant. The bail is made of fine silver wire.
Moonstone is a gemstone for new beginnings, inner growth and strength. It carries the beautiful energies of selfless love, nurturing, hope and abundance. A stone that is apt for the message of Veganism. I have charged it with Reiki energy to enhance its metaphysical properties.
There is a hole in the pendant behind the moonstone so that light passes through it and it's healing energy touches the person wearing it.
Length: 2.1 inches (5.5 centimeters)
Width: 1 1/2 inches (3.3 centimeters)

ABUNDANCE mixed media wearable art pendant
A fabulous Goldstone rests at the center of this wearable art pendant which has been sculpted by me, with great love and attention to detail, out of polymer clay and adorned with copper and metallic mica powders in various colors. The bail is made of copper wire.
Length: a little more than 2 1/2 inches (6.8 centimeters)
Width: 2 1/2 inches (6.4 centimeters)
Goldstone, also known as Sunstone, carries the powers of vitality and ambition. I builds energy, courage and a positive attitude. Its glorious sparkles are caused due to flecks of copper (the pictures do not even begin to capture the sparkles on this one). I have charged it with Reiki to enhance its metaphysical properties. There are three holes at the back of the pendant right behind the stone so that light can pass through it and the stone's energy flows to the wearer easily.

Citrus Berry Tango carnelian amethyst reiki gemstone earrings
Delicious, deep purple Brailian Amethyst chunky rondelles and juicy, tangerine AAA faceted natural Carnelian cubes are wrapped in fine silver wire to form these exquisite earrings.
The amethyst and the carnelian make a wonderful combination in colors as well as energy. The pictures don't do justice to the beauty and sparkle of these earrings.
Length: approximately 1 7/8 inch (4.8 centimeters)
Amethyst is associated with the third eye chakra and is a powerfully protective and soothing stone which stimulates the intuition and promotes spiritual growth. Carnelian is associated with the sacral chakra and carries the healing vibrations of abundant energy and creativity. I have lovingly charged these with the gentle, healing power of Reiki to enhance their metaphysical properties.

Give Peas A Chance Go Veg copper handstamped pendant
Don't you just love playing upon words?
The larger circle in this pendant says "GIVE PEAS A CHANCE" and the smaller one says "GO VEG". The two are linked together with copper wire which carried three Jade "PEAS". :)
The copper has been put through an antiquing patina process which has brought out some flashes of very pretty rainbow colors. Especially on the "GO VEG" part. Haven't been able to capture it on camera so well. You need to see it in person to admire the colors completely.
Length of pendant: a little more than 2 1/2 inches (6.6 centimeters).

STRAWBERRY ROSE TEA red lampwork and silver pendant
My very favorite tea room in Bangalore is called Infinitea. They have a huge selection of teas ranging from strong chais to mild herbals. The last time I visited there, they had introduced a new line of fruit and flower teas and the one that tempted me most is called Strawberry Rose. It's a delicious blend of rose petals, strawberry bits, lemon grass and a few other delicate flavors. When it arrived, I found that it smelled heavenly! I could barely contain myself for the 3 minutes of seeping time. And when I finally had my first sip I was in pure bliss.
If the flavors and fragrances of this Strawberry Rose tea took form in shapes and colors, I'd say this pendant is what that first sip would look like. :)
The pendant features an absolutely gorgeous lampwork bead handmade, cleaned and kiln annealed by the talented artist Debbie Olsen. The bead is of a deep red base with turquoise and purple designs on it. I have wrapped it in fine silver wire and accented the pendant with delicious deep red Swarovski crystals to match.
Length: a little more than 2 1/4 inches (5.9 centimeters)
Width: 7/8th of an inch (2.1 centimeters)

Danu copper azurite necklace and earrings set
The colors, textures and shapes in this necklace and earrings set make me think of Danu, the Mother Goddess. The earthy blue greens of the azurite stones compliment the rustic copper components beautifully.
I received the three fused copper rings which form the focals of the necklace and the earrings from my dear friend Cindy Pack of http://casbeads.etsy.com She handmade the rings herself. I held onto them for a while before I could come up with a perfect design to highlight their beauty. I love the way this set has turned out! She sent me a few more rings and I intend to create something lovely with them just for myself.
Length of necklace: 14 inches (36 centimeters)
Length of pendant: almost 2 inches (4.8 centimeters)
Length of Earrings: almost 1 3/4 inches (4.3 centimeters)
I have intentionally kept the necklace short so the pendant hangs just under the collarbone on a fairly small sized neck. If you'd like the length of the chain to be increased to 15 or 16 inches, please drop me a note after you've placed your order and I'll be happy to add the extra inch or two at no added cost.

BLISS silver and amethyst stamped oval pendant
My very first stamped silver piece. The moment I saw this sterling silver oval blank I fell in love with it! I could visualize a beautiful pendant and immediately swiped it up.
I hand stamped the word BLISS onto the oval, along with a super-cute, tiny double heart design. Then I hammered it to add texture. I wrapped the bail with twisted fine silver wire and added a gorgeous, high quality, purple faceted amethyst for an extra bling. The charm clinks against the oval and makes a pleasant sound. :)
I finally put the pendant through an antiquing patina process and hand polished it to bring out all the details beautifully. I'm particularly pleased with the way the twists in the fine silver wire are highlighted!
The pendant has been charged with Reiki to enhance the amethyst's metaphysical healing properties.
This pendant would make a wonderful gift if you aren't too tempted to keep it for yourself. :)
Length: 2 1/18 inches (5.2 centimeters) including the bail.

Once upon a time, thousands of years ago, Turtleclops mountain was an active volcano and used to be known as Lava Peak by the then residents of Monsterville. Then one day it became dormant and as the centuries went by the cyclopses forgot all about the eruptions.
Ms. Daisy Turtleclops, Lily's great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandmother, was an adventurous young lady of those times and she decided to be the first monster to scale Lava Peak and touch the summit.
She embarked on her quest along with a group of loved ones and loyal friends. After 3 months of relentless hiking, they reached the very top of the mountain. And there they discovered a beautiful lake inside the large crater of the ancient volcano. It was the most magnificent sight they had ever beheld. Ms. Daisy Turtleclops (and the rest of the group) fell absolutely in love with the place and never wanted to leave. So they decided to make Crater Lake their home. And that's how Turtleclops Mountain got its name.
Lily loves to hear this story from her mom over and over again. She is extremely proud of her Turtleclops heritage. When she grows up, Lily wants to be an adventurer just like her great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandma Daisy. And she says that no matter where she goes she'll always take her mother with her. Rose smiles at her daughter with pride.
