Earring Gallery

Welcome to my Earring Gallery. All of my treasures are handmade, one-of-a-kind originals from the highest quality materials, giving you a piece of jewelry that is uniquely your own. My guarantee to you: I want you to be happy with your wearable art, and will do everything I can to make sure you are. I warrant my treasures against any flaws in workmanship, because beads can sometimes cut through threads from long-term wear. I test-wear my pieces to make sure there are no weaknesses when I am done, so you can be assured of wearing your treasure for a lifetime. However, should a thread come apart from normal wear, I offer to repair it because your treasure is one-of-a-kind and cannot be duplicated. If you drop it and break a glass bead or two, I can fix that too but it will never look exactly the same, as I will not have those exact same beads - I buy unique beads to create a unique treasure! I will make one repair for free, and if you are unusually hard on your pieces and break it more than once, I will repair it the second time for a fee. All the art glass I use as focal beads is kiln annealed and so will withstand normal wear with no problems. However they are glass, so if you drop it and it breaks, I'm afraid I can't help you. Those beads are so unique there is no way to replace them in an existing design piece. My best suggestion to you is to treat your piece like the treasure it is, store it carefully, and be gentle with it. If you do, you will wear that treasure for a lifetime!

A silver-foiled lined clear Venetian teardrop has a pretty amethyst color swirl pattern on the outside. This bead is topped with a Bali silver square - sterling silver with delicate wire details. Suspended inside the square is a faceted gray freshwater pearl. I think the combination makes an excellent neutral tone earring, and the little bit of color just gives that neutral tone interest. The earring measures 1 ¾ inches from the bottom of the sterling silver earwire. To buy this pair, click on $20.

When I picked up these beautiful transparent blue-green Czech hearts, I really loved them! They really looked like fun to me, so I put them on blue niobium wire and went a little crazy with the pliers, but I like the results. Blue 6mm and 3mm Swarovski crystals finish them, and the earwires are sterling silver. They're light as a feather and the bottom wire swings delicately because it's so lightweight. From stem to stern they measure 2.5 inches (7 centimeters) long.

Blue-Green Earrings
Crystal Earrings
Swarovski crystal - enough said! These are 3 mm and 6 mm bicone clear crystals with a crystal teardrop. Crystal is always right for anything, and clear goes with everything. Attached to sterling silver leverback ear clasps, so you won't lose them, add these to any evening wear to give it sparkle. These measure about 1.5 inches (4 centimeters) long.

A turquoise and pearlized white polymer clay heart (made by Becca Crauswell) suspends a matte finish turquoise disk, a stark white fiber-optic bead and a clear Czech crystal oval. The polymer clay heart makes these earrings very lightweight and easy to wear. These are very light and airy earrings, hanging from sterling silver earwires. I think they seem very whimsical and cheery myself. The earring measures 1 ½ inches from the bottom of the earwire - to buy this pair, click on $15.

An unusual pair of earrings, they are blue-green in color, because the leaf green is covered on one side by an AB finish, making it match the blue green cathedral bead above. I love that cathedral bead - it is blue-green and faceted all the way around so it looks like a cathedral window, and edged top and bottom in bronze. The bronze freshwater pearl compliments the blue-green well. The blue-green and bronze are my version of earthy colors. The earring measures 1 ¼ inches from the bottom of the 14K gold-filled earwires - to buy this pair, click on $20.

Chandelier earrings made a fabulous fashion comeback these past few seasons, and I've tried my hand at some. This one has lovely button freshwater pearls set off by various Swarovski clear crystals, with one smokey clear AB round in the very center. Those strands hang from a Bali silver finding set with another pearl. The earring is delicate and feminine, and is bound to go with anything girlie you wear! They certainly will dress up any night on the town. They measure 2 ¼ inches from the bottom of the sterling silver earwire. To buy this pair, click on $25.

These lovely faceted glass rounds are reclaimed beads from an old necklace. I don't know how old they are, but they have a heaviness and surface look of vintage beads. The matching faceted round on the bottom is a pearlized green, with a 14K gold-filled hourglass shape in between. Hanging on 14K gold-filled earwires, these are a rich green with an AB finish on the top bead - these will make any outfit look great! To buy this pair, click on $15.

Cobalt Lampwork Earrings
Stars in a night sky - one of my favorite things. These cobalt lampwork beads are so beautiful - created by Marilynn Dondero-Rich. I matched them with some wonderful Venetian triangles, sterling silver and Swarovski crystals to make a startlingly blue pair of earrings. Find a cobalt dress to go with these - you'll turn heads everywhere you go! Starting from the sterling silver earwires, these measure 2.25 inches inches (6 centimeters) long.

These cool beads are lampwork - translucent sea green and opaque cream swirled together to create a beautiful marbled look. Add two types of freshwater pearls to match and a sterling silver spacer and, voila! These earrings are soft and sweet, and a great color. Wear them with winter white now or turquoise green in the spring. The earwire is sterling silver and the earring measures 1.25 inches (4.5 centimeters) from the top of the earwire.

Turquoise Swirl Earrings
Turquoise Raku Earrings
Such cute and tiny lampwork beads! Also in the turquoise/blue-green family, these earrings are small and dainty. The lampwork is matched with earthy-colored turquoise Fimo clay tubes, some sparkly Swarovski crystals, sterling silver spacers and a fabulous faceted sterling silver bead. Don't let the close-up picture fool you. The earring measures 1.75 inches (4.5 centimeters) from the top of the earwire, but the lampwork bead is only 1 cm wide and 0.5 cm tall.

This bead is the same palest purple Venetian glass, but silver foil lined this time. The pearl is actually a light, almost periwinkle blue, with Bali silver at the bottom. The colors make it a very crisp, icy looking earring, great for winter or spring. These earrings measure two inches (5 centimeters) from the top of the sterling silver earwire.

Lavender Triangle Earrings

This earring is a colorful set. The lampwork is an opaque white, gold and soft purple core surrounded by clear glass (Boro, I think for you experts).
