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.

- Love Hurts Necklace
This necklace has a large handcut brass heart, 12cm long and 10cm wide. It has black labradorite, black blister pearls, black peacock pearls, purple and blue pearls and faceted black onyx beads. It is from my ‘Love Hurts’ range and is very dramatic, a real statement piece.
The purple and blue pearls are amazing colors. I would really really love jumpers in these colors, preferably shiny like the pearls. To watch my complete collection, check my website.

Love Hurts Necklace
Another piece from my ‘Love Hurts’ range, lots of handcut brass hearts with black, blue and purple pearls, black peacock pearls, labradorite, hematite and iolte and faceted black onyx beads.
Why have I called the range ‘Love Hurts’ maybe because there is lots of dark coloured beads and pointy hearts, showing the darker side of love or maybe because it just sounded good!
