Blue ocean

Description

If you’re looking for an exclusive feminine jewel, this is your chance! They are simply breathtaking and full of sparkling gemstones of the very finest quality which stand out beautifully against the frame of oxidized sterling silver.
I first shaped, hammered and coiled the silver frame with an incredibly fine silver wire. Then I enriched it with some dazzling inky blue AA Iolite mirco-faceted rondelles with an extremely detailed faceting for maximum sparkle. I’ve also added some flashy blue fire gemmy AA labradorite faceted onion cut teardrop briolettes, whose colors and shades are magnificent! Finally I’ve added a smooth and shiny kyanite flat teardrops with gorgeous frosty royal-blue coloring: they have that wonderful chatoyancy that kyanite is known for and there are also some black inclusions that make each bead unique.
I’ve oxidized them to a rich charcoal patina, then rubbed and polished to show up some of the detail in the coiling.
Utterly stunning and one-of-a- kind!
Bali silver ear wires give them a very elegant look.
They measure 1.96 inches (5 cm) - ear wires excluded.
