Aesir Adornment - Eye Candy



Here are some of my favorite pieces that have already been sold. While every piece is unique, I accept commissions to create something similar if you so desire.

Click to Enlarge		Mardi Gras! The focal point of this piece is the Dichroic donut showing a multitude of colors - hence the name. It just reminds me of Mardi Gras. The rope is a crochet bead rope - very resilient (although anything can be broken by a determined two year old according to my sister). This work is finished with a fun zig-zag toggle done in the same bright colors as the crochet rope to take it over the top, just like Mardi Gras! Total wearable length, 31".

Click to Enlarge		Bronze Fugue The name comes from the harmony of the components working together to create a necklace so pleasing to the eye. My husband’s first name for this necklace was “wow”, but I thought it deserved something a bit more descriptive! The centerpiece is bronze art glass with a Montana Blue haze, and free form glazed “squiggles” accented with dichroic bits. The accent beads are bronze glass, with an aurora borealis coating. The gold beads and the lobster clasp are gold filled. The beaded crochet rope is done in matte metallic beads to accent the pendant creating a very rich look. Length: 18”.

Click to Enlarge		Oh Scarlett! For some reason, when making this piece, I thought of both Scarlett O'Hara and the Scarlet Letter. Odd, isn't it? I love the deep red in this work, and really wanted to frame the piece to let the focal point be the dichroic donut. Deep red crystals on both the toggle and at the focal bead add intrigue. Both Scarlett and Hester would be proud to wear this piece! Wearable length, 30 ½".

Click to Enlarge		Purple Nebula A beautiful freeform pyrex metalized bead, freely swinging from a crocheted rope with matching iridized glass beads, Wearable Length: 20"

Click to Enlarge		Dark Mystery A 2" Mahogany Obsidian donut, shaped and polished to perfection. Accented with a bronze freshwater pearl and metallic spacer beads. The rope is a solid black, making the toggle and donut the centerpiece of this work. Wearable Length: 28".

Click to Enlarge		Geometric Blue Another in my series of dichroic donuts as a toggle for the accompanying crotched rope. The Donut is blue with geometric dichroic accents. The crochet rope is made with royal blue beads with a rainbow of iridescent coatings. Accented with a blue glass bead and gold plated spacer beads. Wearable Length: 25".

Click to Enlarge		Moss Agate Ruffle Pin/Pendant If you've never seen moss agate, you are going to love it. This piece is wonderfully translucent with lacy green and black threads. The beading around it is done in blue/green matte beads with black accents, nicely showing off the beauty of the stone. Pin back allows you to wear it as either a pin or a pendant!

Click to Enlarge		Emerald & Graphite Continuous Rope A sumptuous rope to adorn any neck! This one was custom made in these colors, showing a background green color randomly accented by the graphite beads. It is 30” long; the rope is approximately ¼” in diameter. It is an endless rope without a clasp, and is as supple as it can be. Yours can be in any color or combination, and any length! Simply Ask! Price: dependant on length.

Click to Enlarge		Celestial Nebula Blue iris matte lampwork bead floats freely along this sparkly crochet rope. Finished with silver accent beads and a self-clasp - secure yet easy to open and close. 19" wearable length.

Click to Enlarge		Pink and Pearls A beautiful translucent pendant of pink dichroic glass, accented with pink Swarovski crystals, and white freshwater pearls. The necklace is finished with a silver tone heart clasp. Note that the dichroic glass is tempered and therefore resilient to normal wear. Total length is 20” (can be shortened or lengthened if needed).

Click to Enlarge		Green Zulu Flower Bracelet Zulu flower bracelets are simply fun in my book. This one uses two shades of green: A matte green, and an iris green accent. The closure is created using a reinforced beaded loop to accommodate a silver button. Total length 8 ½"

Click to Enlarge		Fossils & Pearl Ruffle Pin/Pendant The cabochon is fossilized palmwood with a distinctive flowerette design, encased in pearl, iridized copper and amber beadwork frame. Pin back allows you to wear it as either a pin or a pendant!

Click to Enlarge		Modern Blues Stunningly different neckwear! I never know quite how something will dome out until it is finished, and I have to say I am very happy with Modern Blues! The Dichroic bead is stunning. It has so much going on – the two parallel blue bars are actually somewhat raised, adding a three dimensional look. The remainder of the glass is so well polished that it simply screams to be noticed! The crochet rope adds some color, yet doesn’t detract from the pendant. The findings are all sterling silver. Approximately 19” long.

Click to Enlarge		Oriental Carnelian The focal bead is carnelian, a semi-precious stone, carved with an Oriental motif. It is flanked by two large peach colored, pear shaped fresh-water pearls, then two round carnelian beads. The remainder of the necklace is made with additional pear shaped, peach colored fresh-water pearls, separated with hand-knotted silk thread. The clasp and findings are gold-filled. Total length is 20 inches.

Click to Enlarge		Golden Fantasy A freeform glass bead with fumed iridescent with a coating of purple. The rope is crocheted from glistening yellow aurora borealis, finished with purple dichroic beads. The clasp system is formed gold filled wire emulating the glass bead. Approx. Length 18”.

Click to Enlarge		Chunky Quartz Chunky necklaces are the newest thing. I first saw them in Europe this past spring, and couldn’t wait to have one myself! I also have one here for you! The quartz stones are about 5/8” long, and about ½” across. They are accented by silver plate spacers, and a kicky toggle clasp. Approximate Length: 17 ½”.
