Wire Wrapped Rose Quartz Necklaces

Here are two necklaces created with rose quartz stones and wrapped in .925 sterling silver.  The pendant above was netted with fine sterling silver wire in a needle lace technique.  The sterling silver flower dangles freely.  This piece is available at http://bodyice.net/jewelry/product.php?productid=17782&cat=261&page=1.  The necklace below was wire wrapped with .925 sterling silver as well.  This piece was recently sold and is no longer available but I love the heart shaped caged stone. 

The rose quartz stone is considered the stone of love and marriage.  The stone is said to give vibrations of love for the wearer and gives inner peace and enhances the feeling of self-worth. 

New Colorful Clay Cabs

In my spare time, I have been working on making some new colorful clay cabochons which I plan to wrap and incorporate into pendants and earrings. The fall fashion color forecast is calling for bright reds, yellows and sea green colors and I have made these pieces to coordinate with the fashion trend. Here is a picture of some of these unfinished pieces. They have all been sanded and coated with resin.

Who knows what they will look like when they have been wrapped and beaded into beautiful jewelry pieces. When I work on pieces, especially with wire work, I just seem to create as I go.
