Jewelry Ideas Using Gold, Page 6

Green Goddess Earring

These are soooo glamorous, a lightweight but eye catching long pair of earrings, great for a special ball or gala occasion. The hoop earwires and heart shaped chandelier hangers are shaped and hammered from wire. At the top hangs a chrysophase mini nugget, next swing the gold heart shapes from fine chain. Under the hearts […]

Ne-zhoni Toh-yi-kal

Pretty Tears (Ne-Zhoni Toh-Yi-Kal) jewelry set consists of a 27″ Necklace, 7 1/2 bracelet and 3″ drop earrings. My materials are torquoise bead nuggets, ovals, chips and a 22mm focal bead, and contrasted with buffalo bone beads. All accent beads are gold plated, and I use a stainless coated wire to prevent corrosion and add […]

Fall Rhapsody Necklace Set

The idea of this set came to me last fall and was inspired on a very sunny day. It was what we call Golden Fall. First, I weaved the necklace base using vertical netting stitch technique. I used tiny seed Czech beads #12 of amber color. Then I made seven leaves for the necklace and […]

Sun Goddess Necklace

I wove a freshwater pearl with golden seed beads to create a rose feature. I used strong fireline to weave the seed beads around the freshwater pearl. I made a circle with the seed beads and then wove the pearl on, then working in rounds I added the petals. Around the rose sit clusters of […]

Diamond Drop Choker

Three different sizes of glass bicone beads are used, along with gold wire. I also substitute 6mm round or oblong lampwork beads for the center piece on the diamond. This is a fun piece to make and looks great with every outfit, from jeans to formal gowns.

Marvelous Malachite Choker

15″ diameter (choker length) genuine Malachite Gemstone necklace set with 14k Gold and Vermeil Gold spacers and findings. Malachite can imitate Emerald in hue. These quality Malachite gemstones are a deep emerald green with gentle marbling. The focal centerpiece ia a 1″ length antiqued bronze ornate medallion. Other components of this necklace include antiqued bronze […]

Golden Arielle Bracelet

This bracelet is composed of cute little golden bows separated by bronze flowers. The flowers are arranged from fire polished beads and golden Japanese seeded beads. I used matte gold findings to top it off.

Asymmetrical Leather Necklace

This piece is made with navy blue goat leather (roll and circles) golden wood, resin and chain. I tried to make something very modern and different and the result was amazing. I loved it. I showed it in a Art Fair and it was a success. I sold it as the first place. The colour […]

Vintage Garden Necklace

Antiqued gold cable chain and textured rings, amazonite faceted nuggets, bronze potato pearls and aged brass wire are wirewrapped together to form this necklace. An aged brass leaf charm, a turquoise Czech fluted flower with a Picasso finish, and a copper Swarovski crystal bicone dangle from the main ring. I formed and hammered brass wire […]

Turkish Twist Necklace

I love the variety of textures and colors available through twist necklaces but I also wanted a pendant to tie all of them together and give the piece a focal point. The Turkish eyes seemed perfect. There are five strands altogether: a strand of teal glass beads, a strand of blue seed beads, a strand […]

Green Aventurine With Gold Disk Earrings

I wanted to attempt something sculptural with these triangle shaped green aventurine beads. They are polished, but have a matte finish; so I used contrasting shiny 16k gold plated textured disks and 8mm carnelian beads to add color. I like the mix of the different shapes. It’s a bold unique design.

Hawaiian Bridesmaid Necklace

This set is made from chunky turquoise and orange coral pieces strung on 24k gold wire and gold fittings. I made and wore this necklace as the maid of honor for my friend’s wedding in Hawaii.

Fall Colors Necklace

The turning leaves in fall inspired me to make this set. I used a gorgeous Garnet for a pendant, fire agate and Czech crystal, burnished gold balls and chain complete this beauty. It will go with almost all the colors of your wardrobe. The necklace is 20″ long, extendable to 22″. The Earrings dangle 1.5″.

Blue and Gold Necklace

The necklace consists of three strands of seed beads, E-beads, glass beads and silver coils I shaped with round-nose pliers. The earrings consist of the same elements, although the coils are much smaller.

Asian Gold And White Necklace

I’ve had this pendant for several years, it just laid in a drawer waiting to be used in something…I just had no idea how to use it in a creative way. When I found the chain, I thought it would be a great way finally to showcase the very ornate pendant. I wrapped a a […]

Amber Waves Bracelet

This 5 1/2″ stretch bracelet will fit most children (although I do not recommend it for children under the age of 5 years) or a small adult wrist. It is double standed with stretch cord and made with antiqued silver Swarovski amber charms, glass amber and gold seed beads, clear round glass beads with amber/gold […]

Marigold Splash Bracelet

This bracelet is made of crystal cube beads, oval cut Aurora Borealis crystal beads, Czech seed beads, crystal and yellow cut round glass beads, white seed bead spacers and a sterling silver toggle clasp.

Gold Wire Wrapped Necklace

This necklace consists of 0.80mm gold colour wire and 11mm glass pearls.

Golden Cuff

My inspiration was exotic rock star glam. I love creating pieces that easily transition from day to evening. Being glamorous all day can be easy with great transitional pieces. I used 14kt gold-filled wire and textured chains to create this piece. For added detail and contrast, I introduced sterling silver textured chains. I also used […]

Fall Cluster Statement Necklace

With most of my work this season I have come to the realization that I am in a ‘bigger is better’ frame of mind. I am leaning more towards chunky statement type pieces. Also, I find I enjoy mixing gold and silver a lot and this piece reflects that. I began with only an inkling […]
