This necklace gives four choices to the wearer. The lovely oval-linked silvertone chain is 32 inches long and can be worn single or doubled. The pendant is enamelled with cream on one side and pink on the other - so a further two choices. The centre of the pendant contains a large Swarovski (clear AB) teardrop and further smaller dangles - Swarovski cream pearls and clear AB crystals. The first few links of the chain bear dangles made from Swarovski pearls and crystals and this pattern is repeated at the back of the chain so that, when worn with the chain doubled, the necklace remains symetrical. The pendant measures two and a quarter inches, and it hands from several wraps of fine sivertone chain, making it a total of two and a half inches from the chain. So when worn doubled, this necklace measures over 18 inches long.
Item comes in a quality wooden necklace box with metallic amethyst coloured finish, making it an ideal gift.
Price £20.

This is a quality necklace made from sterling silver with Swarovski pearls, Chinese crystal teardrops and a large sparkling Chinese crystal pendant. The chain is a heavy weight sterling silver chain with a good quality lobster clasp and two heavy oval rings to connect the chain to the row of teardorp crystals. The crystal pendant is embellished with sterling silver 'twirls' and there are several little cream Swarovski crystal dangles attached. The overall length of the necklace is 23 inches but this could be shortened by one inch with a slight adjustment to the pendant, if required. Item comes in a luxury wooden necklace box which has a metallic amethyst finish, making it extra special as a gift and providing good protection for the item.

This is what you call a string of pearls. The overall length is 78 inches which obviously means this necklace is not meant to be worn as a single strand, unless you tie a knot in it and wear it like a flapper necklace. The general choices are that you wear this a long, double strand, a triple strand or a 4-strand necklace. As a 4-strand it can be worn as straightforward strands, or twisted and clasped with the pearl shortener clasp provided. The pearls are a lovely quality glass in various shades of grey.

These are different. A necklace and bracelet using similar beads and therefore can be classed as a matching set. The 'Y' shaped necklace has some clear glass, disc beads which bear lovely patterns in shades of blue. Between the disc beads are tiny black fire polished beads and the design is hung on a fairly chunky, silver plated chain with a lobster clasp to finish it off. The bracelet is a 'half and half' style. One half has a row of the same tiny black fire polished beads and a finer silver plated chain, while the other half has little black oblong beads with blue spots on them, spaced by the black fire polished beads. The clasp is a Tibetan silver heart shaped toggle and there are two dangles - a larger black fire polished bead and a 'made with love' heart.
Price Necklace: £13; bracelet £9.

Here are four examples of the lovely bracelets I make. Each one is a different design and each uses quality materials. Two of these bracelets contain lovely glass pearls, one in a dark grey chunky size, spaced with lovely Tibetan silver beads and with half of the bracelet bearing little 'charm' beads, and the other in a lovely shade of turquoise, with pretty flower spacers in Tibetan silver. The other two bracelets have silvery tubes, one with larger bendy tubes in Tibetan silver and lovely black lampwork beads, and the other using smaller silver plated tube beads with black and red glass beads.

This is a lovely chain mail bracelet made from hundreds of jumprings. The rings are 925 silver plated and the coloured ones (in this case purple) are then coated with enamel. In this example, the clasp is a silver plated copper toggle and there is a ladybird charm attached.

Chain mail is a time consuming jewellery making method so the cost of a piece like this is reflected in the price.

This is a crocheted bracelet using a different method to my other crocheted jewellery. The semi precious stones, including Garnet, Labradorite, Rock Crystal and freshwater pearls, are crocheted into a wire mesh band, then formed into a tube. The tube then has two lovely bead cones and a clsp attached to make the bracelet. The wire used is tarnish resistant, silver plated copper and the bead cones and clasp are all 925 silver plated copper. The overall effect is a lovely, dark red colour with some sparkle.

This absoultely devine jewellery has been made as a special commission for Amanda's wedding. The pieces are made from Swarovski pearls and crystals. The necklace and bracelets all have Bali silver clasps. The earrings have beautiful sterling silver and CZ hoops (not quite finished hence only one earring in the photo). The beading wire is silver plated copper that is tarnish resistant. The necklace is not intended to be completely symetrical, but rather to give the effect that pearls and crystals of various sizes have been 'scattered' across the piece. The effect is stunning and once again, the photographs does not do total justice. The single strand bracelet of all Swarovski crystals is intended for use on the left hand, so as not to detract too much from the all important wedding band. This was a very time consuming commission, but I think you'll agree that the outcome was worth the time invested.

I can make wedding jewellery ranging from a simple single strand to a more complex piece such as the ones shown here, and anything in between. Materials can be Swarovski pearls and crystals or other stones such as fresh water pearls. Prices will be calculated on request, following a discussion about your requirements and research into the availablilty and price of materials. Please e-mail me for further information.

Here is a beautiful set - bracelet and earrings. They are both made from chunky, silver grey coloured glass pearls, big lilac coloured, Preciosa crystals and 925 silver plated copper beads in a Bali style. The earrings have sterling silver ear wires. The bracelet also sports a half-strand of smaller 'black diamond' coloured Czech fire polished crystals and a Tibetan silver fancy clasp. Note the two lovely dangles near the clasp. The style of this bracelet makes it more versatile as it can be worn with the pearls/Bali style beads at the front, the crystals at the front or a half and half style where the clasp and dangles come to the front.

Here is a 45 inch necklace made from copper chain and glass pearls in shades of 'chocolate' and varying in size. The chain is continuous and wraps around each pearl as it comes to it, as can be seen on the photo.

Here are more examples of my lovely crocheted jewellery. Both are crocheted using silver plated copper wire and containing a variety of semi-precious chips and quality glass beads in complimenting colours. I have used quality bead cones and very pretty clasps on all my pieces.

The Turquoise coloured necklace contains Aquamarine, Blue Lace Agate, White Howlite, Rock Crystal, Mother of Pearl, freshwater pearls, etc etc, to create the right colour scheme.

These unusual bracelet watches are made on silver plated chunky chains and the watches have a quality quartz movement. Each bracelet is in a different colourway, the watch being clustered with very pretty Czech glass leaves and other matching beads, then a few beads are scattered around the remainder of the chain. A beautiful gift for a lovely lady.

Cost: Due to the loss of my previous supplier for watch faces, the price has unfortunately increased to £18.50 for a nicely boxed watch.

These are sold but can be recreated.

These bracelets are really lovely. They both contain chunky Bali style beads that are made from copper that is heavily plated with sterling silver. Each bracelet also has quality Czech glass beads and tiny crystals, together with a very pretty Tibetan silver toggle clasp.

Both of these bracelets have found new homes, but similar items can be commissioned for around £12 I have also recently made a necklace to match one of the bracelets as a commission. This is the same as the bracelet with dark red beads, but the strung beads are then hung from a fancy Tibetan silver chain - very effective.
