Aquamarine and moonstone ring
This is a really pretty ring, it is made of silver wire and has a moonstone and aquamarine oval bead which I think look like sweets! It also has gold filled beads, I really like the mix of gold and silver and use it alot in my work. I have also made a similar ring in 9ct gold as a commission with aquamarine and peridot ‘sweetie’ beads

Moonstone, Iolite and Labradorite Ring in Silver
This ring is big but very beautiful, it is made from silver wire and has white and black moonstones and labradorite stones . Although it is big it is very comfortable to wear and will get noticed and commented on. Black moonstones are one of my favorites at the moment but the white monstones are gorgeous and labradorite are just to die for!!!
Check more of them on my website.

Handcut Silver and Moonstone Necklace
The is a lovely large piece of grey moonstone , I have handcut all the little silver dangly bits and it is on a double strand of silver chain. Its quite a heavy necklace but it feels and looks great on. I do like to work with irregular shaped stones and have some ‘rough’ pieces of moonstone in my stone box, I am not sure what to make yet but they are rather wonderfull! Check out more on my website.
