Black Labradorite Ring
This is the ring I made for my niece on her birthday on Christmas eve, it is a big black Labradorite tumble polished stone set in silver. And yes the bezel is supossed to look like that, all worn away and organic.
A lot of my friends were crazy about this ring so I have made some more ! One with a Labradorite, one with an Amethyst and one with a Peridot, I might just have to keep one myself!

Labradorite, Emerald, Lapis and Pearl Necklace
I made this necklace for my niece for Christmas, it is a rose cut labradorite set in silver with black labradorite, labradorite, faceted emerald, oval emerald, faceted lapis lazuli and freshwater pearl beads. She loves it, it is very dark and rich in colours and this makes the pearl beads stand out.
It was also her birthday on Christmas eve so I made her a ring as well, will be posting that later. More jewelry by me on my website.

During the last weeks I discovered some black lace in a corner in my sewing machine and I decided to make some jewelry experiments. I thought the best way to use it was covering some custom buttons with felt in different colours and a square of black lace. The effect was so romantic and lovely that I tried so many jewels as possible.

Love Hurts Ring
Handmade silver ring with black and blue pearl beads with a handcut silver heart from my Love Hurts range. The blue of these pearls is stunning and the black pearls are more of a bluey/greeny colour but they are beautiful. I call this type of ring ‘dingly dangly’ and have been making different version for years now, they are very popular but be warned don’t wear witha fluffy jumper!
Like it? You can grab it from my online store :-)
