Blooming lotus necklace
Shiny 925 sterling silver lotus pendant with a natural smoky quartz drop enclosed in sterling silver strung together with pink, blue and green dyed jade rondrells, agate and serpentine beads. This necklace is very special to me as its design lies in a childhood experience.
I don’t remember how old I was when this happened but we had gone to fancy hotel for a meal and I happened to see a curio shop there which had shelves of jewelry. One particular design that caught my eye. It was a multi stranded necklace of faceted beads and crystals in graduating colors (pink, red, blue and green). I was fascinated as that was the first time I was seeing jewelry that was not gold, silver or just costume pieces. This one looked expensive and spelt designer. I later came to know that it was a very common design, you can see it across jewelry stores and malls in India. Nonetheless, to me, for a very long time, it was symbolic of designer jewelry.
This multicolor blooming lotus is a tribute (in spirit) to that, moment in life, I’ll always remember.
Deep blue sea set
Necklace created with blue hydro stones and chalcedony stones. Both are marquis cut and set in sterling silver frames. The necklace also has beads of turquoise, serpentine, agate, dyed jasper (pendant), dyed jade rondrells and silver filgree sea shells. Earrings are blue hydro stones, silver filigree sea shells with a silver ear hook
Rangeen mor – colorful peacock
Inspired by the colors of holi and splendor of peacock this beautiful necklace has a 2.5″ sterling silver filigree peacock pendant on a colorful wrapped silk cord accented with pink wooden beads and green serpentine beads. This started as an entry for a contest held by Handmade and beyond. As I was working on it, I was drawn to silk thread jewelry – something I had abandoned years ago. I am currently working on incorporating it in my next collection and it would hopefully do well due to the new found (and fast growing interest in silk in the west). A post on sari ribbon coming up real soon.
All three necklaces are sold. I have a concept in mind making silver wire necklaces. Hopefully I will get to indulge myself in the near future.
I hope you find it interested
Cheers
