October Jewelry

It's been a long time since I've been to my blog.   I got the latest virus off  and hopefully won't have any more problems.   Thanks to Chris,  we didn't have to spend an electric bill payment to get rid of it. 

I am really into copper and Turquoise.  I LOVE Turquoise.  


This is three different necklaces.  There is a leather and chain necklace behind the other two.  It's about 19" long.  I made the clasp and the loops on this.

The lowest hanging necklace consists of  glass, leather, copper and Arizona  and Mexican Turquoise.   I made the large rings and wrapped them,  the smaller chain,  the connections  and then I patina'd them.   It can be worn at a 20" length or just a little longer.  It has turquoise and a handmade copper dangly on the end.

The middle necklace has three sets of three disc Turquoise.   I made the connecting loops.  The large chain closes with a large oxidized lobster clasp.   It's 18 and a half inches long.



 This necklace is 16" long at the neck,  but the two kinds of black chain extends much longer.  The gemstones are Black Onyx  round beads and square Sardonyx.   The wire used to connect the small Onyx beads is made from annealed steel.  So,  if it gets wet,  be sure to dry it!  It has a black lobster clasp.

This necklace is made from Peacock Colored Pearls.  I actually bought the pearls two years ago,  and made them into a necklace that I wore for dinner the first night on our  cruise.   I paired them with copper.   It's 20" long.

I have some bracelets made that I haven't photo'd yet.   Some of them,  when I got them finished,  I decided to keep!!   I'll be sure and show those too!! 

I have to run ,  but I hope to have those posted later today.  

Thanks for stopping by!!
