Jewelry Ideas Using Silver, Page 12

Carnelian Earrings

Carnelian is a beautiful stone! It goes perfectly with copper. Beneath a copper metal connector I hung a gold glass cube, a copper cube, a faceted fire polished amber colored bead and a polished oval carnelian. The colors complement each other beautifully. The beads are strong on decorative headpins and the earrings hang from sterling […]

Silver And Copper Scroll Bracelet

I wanted to make something that used both copper and silver wire and I wanted it to be feminine. This is what I came up with. One of a kind bracelet is made with sterling silver and copper. The individual pieces were shaped by hand then soldered in place and given a light brushed finish.

Czech Druk Satin Blue Glass Bead Earrings

These were made using silver plated earwires, silver plated chandelier pieces, 6mm silver plated filigree balls, 4mm Czech druk satin blue glass beads, and silver plated eyepins.

Sterling Silver & Bone Bead Pendant

This wire wrapped piece was created using sterling silver wire, natural carved bone beads, and a red glass bead. I had no set design in mind when I began this one. The only thing I had to go by was the general “leaf-like” shape. I added some swirls and then decided on some neutral colored […]

Summer Necklace

This necklace is made of various Swarovski crystals and silver findings. It is strung on Beadalon 49 .018 silver plated steel wire. I love both of these materials, and I think they suit each other very well.

Copper, Wood & Bali Bead Ornate Pendant

The focal drop is a hand crafted lampwork bead that is clear with a copper swirl lining. The necklace includes dark wood round beads, Czech faceted smokey brown beads and some silver coloured metal Bali-like beads, bead caps and hanger to finish. The seed beads are clear dark brown and the bugle beads are metallic […]

Frozen Summer

This is the first time I’ve worked with sterling silver. I designed a pendant, and while I was working, more ideas came to mind. I had no idea that you needed so many different techniques and materials in working with silver, but I loved it. The stone inside is a blue Goldstone, lovely. It looks […]

Moon Shadow

Sparkling Fimo clay dances amidst cubed magnetic hematite, black stone and silver spacers. Measures 8″ long.

Emerald Pearl And Torched Copper Necklace

This necklace is really easy to make. On beading wire I strung alternating emerald potato pearls with black seed beads. On each end I used a split ring and on one side is chain for adjustable length and on the other side is a hand made clasp using 20g silver wire. For the pendant I […]

Green Glass Pearl Dangle Earrings

These were made with silver plated ear studs, green “pearl” glass beads, Czech fire polished multi-colored teal/green glass beads, silver plated chains and silver plated headpins.

Autumn Jade Necklace

Inspired by colorful, fragrant, crisp autumn leaves. Large slabs of rich yellow jade, small cream and brown round beads of jasper and oval white potato pearls capture the best of my favorite season! Wire-strung with sterling silver crimps and crimp covers. Secured with a magnificent laced, long-oval sterling silver clasp.

Hand Painted Horn Necklace

Exotic beaded necklace handmade with hand painted horn beads. Bead sizes are 4mm round, 8mm round, and 2 inch long painted beads. Necklace is 16 inch long with a 2 inch extender. Weight of the necklace is around 60 grams. Hand painted chocolate color horn beads have a smooth touch. Necklace is closed using nickle […]

Olivia Necklace

The blue, green and dark grey 6 mm bead combination and the intricate central motif add up to a vibrant necklace that makes me think about spring and blossoms. This necklace measures about 46cm and it is finished with a silver plated lobster clasp and a chain that makes it adjustable.

Northern Lights Bracelet Set

This colorful and playful bracelet/earring set was made using glass beads of various colors and, using eye pins, round jump rings and square jump rings, attaching them to a silver chain. Fun, bright and cheery!

Jessica’s Big Blue Glass Drop Necklace

Inspired by a friend who wanted something bright for an outfit, this dichroic glass necklace was designed with a simple bright blue oversized glass drop hanging on small silver lined crystal seed beads (so they wouldn’t compete with the drop and would add some “bling” at the same time). While simply composed, this piece is […]

Primitive Treasure Necklace

I enjoy working with a mixed media–this particular piece is an example of that. A woven waxed cord with 28 of my wire wrapped lampwork beads, each with a malachite bead on each pin. I’ve ended the woven work inside 2 domed lampwork caps. Soldered sterling silver rings hold my handmade centrepiece of textured copper […]

Tassle To Go Necklace

I created this necklace by stringing Rainbow Flourite donuts, Violet Swarovski crystals, a silver plated hammered circle center piece, and purple matte seed beads. This necklace has a lobster clasp and chain so length can be adjusted.

Antiqued Silver Swirl Pendant

I really enjoyed creating this set. It’s made of 18 gauge sterling silver wire and antique silver beads. For the posts and pendant, I started with the swirls with the beginning of the wire, allowing enough wire at the end to form the posts on the earrings and the bail which is hidden behind the […]

Snails Wire Wrapped Jewelry Set

Bracelet, earrings and necklace were made of silver plated wire, twisting around a wire with beads. This piece reminds me snails, therefore I called it so. 🙂

Tale Of A Seahorse Necklace

First I formed the frame by hand – no solder here, all cold connections. Once the frame was secured I used countless feet of hair thin wire to stitch the hundreds of 2mm – 4mm sterling silver beads. I added some beautiful blue apatite beads around the belly for a splash of color, and another […]
