Small is Beautiful

Today's earrings feature a pair of very small faceted cubes of Peridot, which I have also had for a long time. I always intended to use them in a more complicated design, but in the end I decided that these are quite pretty enough to be on their own. I have threaded them on to feather-light small 14K gold-fill hoops, which gracefully suspend these twinkling pretties from the earlobes.

Price: £14.

Hoopla!

We finally had a sunny weekend, so I was able to capture my latest creations in the evening sun yesterday (though the scramble to find batteries for the camera before the sun disappeared behind the rooftops was a bit tense - memo to self: have batteries charged & ready at all times!)

Continuing with my fascination for hoop earrings, here is a pair in hammered Sterling Silver adorned with faceted pear briolettes of sky blue Topaz. Perfect for work & play.
