Deeper Magic From Before the Dawn of Time. Narnia inspired earrings.

  


If you follow this blog, you know how much I love Narnia. I found this photo of the Snow Queen at a Facebook page, here, don't know which issue of Vogue it comes from, but I thought the similarities with the White Witch from 'The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe' were striking! The Snow Queen looks irresistible, but would she be the most powerful? I thought of the 'Deeper Magic' chapter. And then, I made these:


 


I thought of ice melting, I imagined love entering even the coldest of hearts. Only white opal, with its iridescence and its colorful flashes of pink, green and gold could capture the magic of love and kindness that lies deeper than any other magic in the world!

Eros Bridal Locket Necklace II

OK, so I managed to take some photos and here is the necklace that is now available for everyone in my shop...





If you remember my older post, this was originally a custom design for a bride-to-be, and I am so happy to be offering it for everyone! Enjoy...

Eros Bridal Locket Necklace



I am really proud of this! A bride can sure use a locket on her wedding day! This was a custom order, but I intend to make the design available for everyone within the next couple of days. And the price is 28.79 USD (that's around 22 euros).

Meanwhile, after I had started working on this necklace, I happened to be writing the Victorian Charm fashion trend report article for the EGST blog, which you can also read here in my personal blog. While looking for relevant runway photos -I like to select them one by one- I came across this:




Elle says that this necklace, from Dior, marries both Victorian worlds: London’s dark, dirty streets and the royal court’s pretty fashions. It is the Dior 'Poudree' large lace necklace, $3,100. Found at dior.com. Indeed it is gorgeous. But no mortal can pay that amount. Plus, I don't think it is that wearable. By mortal people, that is. Anyway, just thought I'd share it with you. The photo is of course courtesy of Dior. May rich people around the world buy it! The rest of you, who want original designs, are kindly advised to visit my Etsy shop.

Something New for the New Year

My grandma says we should always buy something new for the new year, even a small thing. So I made these lovely pieces that combine gold and silver, basically raw brass and pewter, along with coral and peridot.







I wouldn't tell my grandma this, but only the chain in those is new... The rest of the components come from old and broken jewelry. But hey! If you get one of those necklaces, you get old and new in one! Cool!

Romantic Lace and Flowers Earrings

Before I present to you my new pair of earrings, I have to tell you one thing: Lace is all over the place this season. Read any magazine, and it's there. Lace dresses, shrugs, collars, tights, lace in shoes and, oh! -lace in earrings!

So, when L' Accent Nou came up with the theme 'Antarctica' for the EST challenge, I thought about all things white (like... snowflakes!) and then decided to dig up my drawer and make a pair of earrings using some of my vintage white cotton lace, which I had bought at a thrift store a few years back...



I also used transparent, 'ice' pink flower Czech glass beads and antique copper findings. I think they are one of the most graceful and loveliest pairs of earrings I have ever seen!
