Regal Heart

Lapis Lazuli Woven Earrings

The Heart collection is very near the core of who I am. In fact, it is one of my Core Values – Love.

And as literal as they are these heart shapes are not cheesy or childish. I loved following where the design wanted to take me with these. Especially the smaller earring only came through as the current design after I had done something else with it. They are playful, elegant, and Regal. The regal comes from the Lapis Lazuli stones. Lapis has long been revered as the gemstone of Royalty.

The design of these earrings attempts to pair up two juxtaposed values: playfulness and royalty. They invite you to show your full spectrum – to wear your heart on your sleeve (in this case, your ears). Like all the pieces in the Hearty collection, they aim to remind you to be kind AND candid and kinda’ playful :o)

They’d go very well with denim, or with a navy suit. Wear them with pride.

Full of Pearls

3 Stacking Pearl Rings & Pearls Hoop Earrings Set

This set is called Full of Pearls and it consists of two hoop-style earrings which are unusually symmetrical (for a set I’ve made). Accompanied by three rings that can be worn in quite a variety of different ways.

I created this set because I received so many compliments on the version of the rings I made for myself. I may have gone a little overboard – but that’s the thing with pearls – you can.

They’re timeless, they’re ageless, they can be fun or sophisticated. They’re basically the ultimate symbol of chameleonism (it’s not word) and they handle stacking and overindulging quite well. So, in a way for me, pearls are the ultimate symbol of feminist fluidity and expression.

The whole set is a combination of small baroque pearls that are very slightly grey, and little freshwater pearls – the ones you know I love to work with.

Then you get the 3 rings. You’ll find the sizes in the attributes tab as usual. Please make sure that the sizes will fit you before you purchase, because they’re not adjustable.

These you can also wear the rings in many different ways. You could stack them all on one finger. You can wear them on separate hands and fingers. Or you can sequence them on the same hand on multiple fingers. OR you could just wear them one at a time.

We did say this was an overindulgence of pearls, right? Definitely a world Full of Pearls – 67 to be precise!

So if you love your pearls – this is a treasure treat for you. Enjoy!

Pearls are not just a symbol of status and abundance – they’re feminine, sophisticated or playful. They are anything you want them to be, Baby! That’s why this set will bring you endless variation and joy.

Pearl Trail

Asymmetric Pearl & Gold Quartz Earrings

Metal Vapour

Asymmetric Abstract Copper Earrings

These asymmetric copper earrings are born of my desire to capture what vapour would look like in metal ‘clothing’. The design (and desire) came to me when I was drinking a cup of tea and saw the smoke rise in billows. Now I know I shouldn’t follow every whim of my eager designer’s mind, but this turned out ok – IMHO.

These are edgy and not for everyone. All metal and nothing else – they juxtapose the transience of vapour with the solidness of copper. They also make for a fabulous twiddling device – in case you need the tactile soothing.

You can wear them with anything you like, but I see them with denim or leather. Or with any time when you need to show some attitude.

Maybe they’ll remind you that every moment in life is transient – like vapour. As well as that every moment in life can be sealed permanently in our memories – IF we choose to.

If you love them – enjoy :o)

Arc Melody

Pearl & White Agate Earring to Pendant Piece

Okay so this is Arc Melody – a multifunctional piece that can be worn either as an earring add-on, or as a pendant – added on to a chain you already own (or of course you could purchase my Spire Chain necklace that you see in the video – cheeky plug here :o)

As you would know, I like creating pieces that serve more than one purpose, and can be worn in more than one way. Because it gives you variety of looks, but it also makes it easier to travel – you take one piece – you get multiple options.

The original design for this actually came or was inspired from a Vogue magazine. I can’t remember who it was, but it kind of doesn’t matter as the final design ended up looking very different.

I just remember seeing the design and then thinking to myself oh I’d love to challenge myself and see if I can recreate it in my style and with these other stones I love working with. I love the lustrousness of the pearls offset with the matt whiteness of the white Agates.

You can see the reason why I call it Arc Melody: obviously – the shape is an arc, but also when I look at the way the movement of these semi-precious stones – it’s almost like it creates a melody with its movement. It’s really, really, really lovely to wear, it feels nice. It’s a really good robust piece.

Please watch the video to see how easy it is to switch between a pendant or an earring. And to get ideas of how stunning it looks when you wear it.

This piece is similar to one I made for myself – it was just too beautiful to keep to myself only.

If you’re into fun statement pieces and you like pearls – this is a very good choice for you.

Enjoy! And as usual – please share a photo of how it makes you feel when you wear it :o)

Revivo

Formed Copper & Chrysoprase Earrings

Copal Water

Opal & Sea Glass Shoulder Skim Copper Earrings

I’m pretty sure I made these for me to keep – but I can’t remember. Their name is a play on the two main elements – copper and Opals – but also with a nod to the fluidity of water. This ‘nod’ to water continues with the use of Sea Glass from Gibrlatar (my home :o)

These earrings hold some hard-to-miss magic – even in their simplicity. The pinky-orange hues of the copper almost tease out the playful colours of the tiny Welo Opals the metal strings along – like tiny droplets of liquid. Each delicate stone—with its own iridescent personality that shifts with the light.

Incidentally – Opals thrive with water. A light misting now and then revives their shimmer, breathing new life into their translucent colors.

Opals are typically believed to provide creativity and transformational powers. Which flows nicely with the water theme. You can style them pretty or edgy. They’d go well in the daytime or at night – they go with the flow! Ok I’ll stop with the puns here :o)

As with all my shoulder-skimming earrings – they aren’t just jewelry. They’re companions for your journey, brushing your collarbone like gentle taps of a friend, reminding you to be present, aware, and to stay with what matters at this moment.

Please post a pic on Instagram to show me how they look and how you feel in them – use #myfullcolourandshine

Blueprls

3-Way Shoulder-skim Pearl & Blue Apatite Earrings

This is a set of earrings for every day, and for many outfits. I’d like to think you’d love the way they sway elegantly but with plenty of presence. The little pearls on top and bottom pop cheekily as if to say look at those blue bad boys (the Apatites) – that blue is so so pure…

They can be worn in two different combinations – which allows you to play with your style and to change from day to night.

The longer earring is meant to rest like a little blue droplet on your shoulder – maybe reminding you to stay in the present moment – each time you feel it nestling there. I love this affordance relationship of shoulder-skim earrings – it’s a tactile tool – but disguised in a beautiful pair of stylish earrings.

You already know that Pearls are regal and feminine; blue Apatites apparently hold the qualities of clarity, wisdom and effective communication. So maybe that can be your new Totem for times when you need a gentle tap on the shoulder to stay clear and communicate well in a situation you find yourself into…

However you choose to style them – enjoy them – let them make you feel beautiful.

MY SIZE: 12.5 cm L x 0.5 cm W — 7.5 cm L x 0.5 cm W

Crownies

Textured Chain Copper Earrings

I finally get to share a fresh design with you! Meet the earrings I’ve named Crownies—a cheeky little reminder that you’re the Queen of your own Queendom.

These earrings are here to nudge you to think about what you’re already great at—what people thank you for, that thing you do so effortlessly it’s almost a superpower. When you put these on, I invite you to feel that quiet confidence in your regalness. Shoulders back, chin up—owning your rightful space!

These beauties are made from heat-colored copper, one of my favorite materials to play with. Every swirl and shade on these earrings is pure alchemy—no paint, no fakery, just the real deal :o)

And the stones? Oh, the stones are where the magic really happens. These earrings feature a total of 21 opals—both Ethiopian and yellow opals—plus a cameo appearance by Indian Agate. Opals are known for their mysterious, iridescent glow, and they’ve been celebrated for ages as symbols of hope, confidence, and transformation. Legend says they enhance creativity and self-expression, and honestly, isn’t that what these earrings are all about?

I’ve made them asymmetrical because symmetry is overrated (also Queens make their own rules anyway). They move beautifully as you wear them—tiny flashes of fire and color catching the light and making sure you’re noticed without having to shout for it.

So, if you’re ready to crown yourself and claim these for your queendom, remember, they’re one-of-a-kind—just like you. Because in this world of one-off creations, being quick on the draw might just make you feel like the queen you already are.

MY SIZE: 5.5cm L x 2.5cm W — 5cm L 3cm W

MY GEMS: 21 micro Yellow Opals, Ethiopian Opals, Indian Agate, Warm Copper.

Green Mirror

Totem-Style Asymmetric Earrings

This is a story of green and copper colours… except they come from a mixture of sources. Copper colored moonstones, play off of copper heart vintage charms. Then an odd-shaped frosted green sea glass sing along with a set of cream green Aventurines until your eye rests calmly on the bottom – at the mesmerising moonstone there.

It’s a meeting of the moon (stones) and sea (glass) 🙂 And in this video you can see how they move as if you were here to touch them.

This green is full of life, and the combination with the coppers is just so calming in a fresh way. You can wear them casually of course – express yourself the way you feel it. But they will shine with an evening outfit of similar colours, but also warm yellows, autumnal reds, or calming blues.

There are no rules about colour matching in my ‘books’ – I’d encourage you to let yourself feel what looks right on the moment.

If you decide to make them yours – please send me a picture on Instagram – use #myfullcolourandshine

MY SIZE: 7.5cm L x 1.5cm W
