Glistening Garnets


I've been wearing roll-neck sweaters quite a lot lately - to keep warm. And one thing I've realised is that my many & much-loved chandelier earrings can get a bit tangled in the knit... So I've been making small earrings, and they are pretty too - not just tanglefree!
Here is a pair featuring a set of beautiful cranberry-red Garnet rondelles that I have had for a long time without knowing what to make of them. I've stacked them with detailed gold-vermeil beads and topped them off with tiny rondelles of Rhodolite Garnets. I like Garnets, so I have a lot of them to play with.
I try to name jewellery, to help me remember each piece I make. These are called Marina. Price: £24.
