Large Frida Collar Necklace by Sollis

Large Friday Collar Necklace $218

 

Today's handmade jewelry pick is this knotted and beaded collar necklace from Sollis.  The combination of materials and the way they are arranged makes this piece really interesting and unique.  It's reminiscent of ancient jewelry but done in a fresh, modern way. 

Tanager and Pomegranate Earrings by Dawn Estin

Tanager and Pomegranate Earrings $95

 

Today's handmade jewelry pick is a pair of sterling silver/mixed media earrings from Dawn Estin.  I love the playful style of these earrings, from the sweet little bird image to the fanciful shapes of the leaves and dangles.  I like the detail of the little tabs on the setting too. 

Fran Bracelet by Sue Savage

Fran Bracelet $160

Today's handmade jewelry pick is a polymer clay and sterling silver bracelet from Sue Savage.  I love that the polymer clay pieces set into the sterling silver bezels look like some kind of amazing, rare jasper.  The colors in the piece shown are gorgeous and the free-form composition of each polymer clay piece is fascinating to look at.

Oval Spring Maple Ring by Ananda Khalsa

Oval Spring Maple Ring $255

Today's piece is this lovely hand-painted silver and 22k gold ring from Ananda Khalsa.  I like the elongated oval shape of this ring, and the simplicity of the miniature painting, reminiscent of Japanese brush paintings.  The gold setting complements the green of the painting nicely. 

Stone Blossom Ring by Revonav

Stone Blossom Ring $270

We have some fine jewelry today for our handmade jewelry pick.  This silver, gold, and diamond ring from Revonav is the perfect balance of clean modern design and sweet romanticism.  I love the soft treatment of the metal against the hard sparkle of the diamond.  This would be a great unique engagement ring. 

Sterling Silver Wire Wrapped Necklace by Joanna Watracz

Sterling Silver Wire Wrapped Necklace $500

Today's pick is a gorgeous beaded wire wrapped necklace from Joanna Watracz.  I love the mix of colors and shapes in the beads- those irregular pearls are great.  What really draws my attention here though is the richness of the wirework.  I love the densitiy of the spiraling wires inside their neatly wrapped nests. 

Whispered Leaves by Pirates Dream

Whispered Leaves $95

Today's handmade jewelry pick is this hand-pierced pendant from Pirates Dream.  Made from the bowl of an antique spoon, the entire design is cut out by hand using a small hand saw.  Quite a feat, especially on a curved surface.  This piece is very nicely crafted and the delicacy of the leaves and roots is just beautiful.
