Regal NOW $12.80 (Was $18)


A truly unique piece since I "created" a metal frame by joining 2 metal filigees together - a beautiful flora one on top and a 3-hole one as the lower piece. Peachy freshwater pearls and a pair of gorgeous multi-faceted maroon glass brios with swirls dangle from the 2 frames.
Feminine-looking yet radiating a sense of 'royalty'.. this pair measures 6.5cm from the ear wires.

Malt Candy (NOW: $32, Was $42) (1 pc only)


Smooth red aventurine nuggets form the essence of this necklace.
Also known as the "whisper stone," red aventurine is a dyed gem and is said to increase the energy level of the third chakra. It also is believed to help the feminine reproductive system, fertility and childbirth.
To break the monotony, I've used some little "cinnamon" aka copper spacers. 2 beads made by Ade sit on the side - nude coloured lentils with some purple designs with red and white swirls. Rather than to steal the limelight, these lentils serve to accentuate the 'earthy beauty' of this piece. Separating the 2 lentils is an antique looking rose bead.
Total length of 17 inches. With the special dragonfly toggle that was used in another creation earlier on (Beauty Beauty). 1 piece only. Absolutely no remake.

Cherry Blossoms (NOW $38, Was $48) (1 pc only)

Another necklace creation of a double-sided pendant designed by Ling. 2 pieces of angbaos featuring the different Chinese sayings: On 1 side, it depicts a picture of a flower in full bloom: 富贵花开 。

On the second side, it shows a tree filled with mandarin oranges.. and in Cantonese, mandarin oranges mean "kam" aka gold: 金橘满堂 .

With sweet colours of the pendant, I've decided to go for a soft and demure look by using smooth cherry quartz nuggets. With metal filigee beads as spacers and a unique floral clasp, the length of this necklace is about 16 inches. Size of the pendant is 2.5cm.

Only piece and absolutely no remake.





Tricia (NOW $38, Was $48) (1 pc only)


A chain of beautiful and vibrant round smooth stones that hardly need any embellishments. If I were not wrong, these little beauties are candy jade -- natural, hard white stone that has either been dyed a solid, vibrant color or has been covered with bright splotches of dye. The colour of these stones is permanent and has been irradiated.

Just to make it a bit more interesting, I've used Toho matt gold plated seed beads as spacers and sitting on 1 side, 2 gold-plated swirls flanked the size of a beautiful polymer clay bead specially handmade by Ade. On the other side is a gold-plated ring to balance it up.

Measuring 20 inches, it is meant to be slightly longer and worn over your top.. Just the sparkly beauty to draw attention to you! Toggle closure which is in the design of a rutted ring with a little heart sitting on top of the toggle. Only 1 piece. Absolutely no remake.

Empress Cixi NOW $30 (Was $45) (1 pc only)

A necklace made of smoky quartz chips and some red ovals (I really cannot remember the name of these stones but they look pretty much like red jasper with their natural inclusions). 18-inch in length and hanging off the centre is a special 2-sided pendant, made by Ling, a local designer. She framed 2 pcs of angbao papers with glass and the result is a square pendant measuring 2.5cm.
Comes with a heart-shaped toggle closure.


This is the first among a series of such pendants made by Ling.
A bold piece, injecting a modern look into something so oriental such as angbaos... 1 piece only. Absolutely no remake.

Princess Regina NOW $28 (Was $38) (3-in-1 necklace)















A doubled-tiered necklace. A pretty & vibrant pink polymer clay rose sits at the side of a strand of Swarovski pearls (the pic does not show the vibrancy of the rose :(( ). On the inside, is a Swarovski crystal heart with a tiny bling on the side.
1 necklace which can be worn many ways. You can wear it as a double-tiered necklace or you can remove either 1 necklace to wear it on its own. A sweet pendant hanging on a simple chain or a pearl necklace. The loveliness of a sweet little princess... simple and elegant at times, dramatic at others.

Aeria NOW $18 (Was $22)


Again 2 beautiful lentils with pink, white and green swirls. I added some pretty ribbon flowers on metal filigees and hung 2 clear, smooth green glass nuggets at the bottom.

So pretty right?? Tempted to keep a pair of myself!

Sweet Blossoms NOW $18 (Was $22)


2 red polymer clay pillows with white flowers.. handmade by Charlene.. Beautiful aren't they? Coupled with 2 Swarovski pearls loops and add pink polymer clay roses with white fringe to the sides.. followed by tassle of chains..
7 cm drop from earwires.
Sweet and bold at the same time...

Snow Queen NOW $25 (Was $35)(1 pc only)



A "transparent" piece. The beads used are called 'crackled glass' -- giving the illusion that they are all "broken up" yet remaining smooth as a marble on the outside. 2 colours of crackle glass beads used, clear and bluish-purplish ones. Themed with multi-faceted elongated glass beads and a purple quartz flower with a dainty little freshwater pearl seated in the centre, this piece is all about coolness and style.

Comes with a dragonfly toggle..

Great when worn with pink or black clothings..

Glass Candy NOW $14 (Was $20)(1 pc only)


Doesn't this pendant look like a delectable candy bar?? Red with gold strips in varying shades hanging on the black multi-strand strings that form an intricate ribbon. 2 strands of gold seed beads form the loop to dangle the pendant.
A rather simple yet dramatic piece. Choker length.

Turquoise Dreams NOW $25 (Was $35)



A carved turquoise bead framed by some coral red discs, and stringed with white howlite chips with turquoise beads in between to break the otherwise monotonous chain. A versatile piece that can be worn with jeans and a simple spaghetti top or a white tube dress for a dinner.

16 inches in length with a toggle clasp.

Snowflake NOW $15 (Was $20)

The name of this creation is derived from the donut shaped snowflake obsidians. Teamed with white freshwater pearls and pewter beads to create a slightly antique look.

This pair can be worn with any outfit. A really versatile look!

As I have a limited supply of the snowflake obsidian donuts currently, only 3 pairs of these earrings are available. Each pair of donuts will look different as the colour and size of the stones vary.

Blue Sky Necklace NOW $15 (Was $20)

Light blue foil glass beads and round glass beads in darker blue dotted along a white leather thong. A great necklace for casual wear.

This necklace can be worn long or doubled up as a short necklace.


Eleanor Necklace NOW $18 (Was $25)

More necklaces! :) This time round it's a pearl necklace with a twist.

Wavy foil glass beads in pink with some yellow and orange streaks matched with lots and lots of Swarovski pearls. Pewter bead caps act as spacers. A classic timeless piece. Aprox 18 inches in length. The necklace will rest just below the collarbone. Available in pink or beige lampwork beads.



I have used a toggle closure so that it is easier for the wearer to put it on herself. You can also request for the usual clasp with an extension chain so that you can adjust the length of the necklace according to your outfits.

Sheer Elegance Set NOW $22 (Was $33)



Showing how the earrings and necklace look in a set. The clear glass beads in between the pearls for the necklace do not show up clearly in the pictures. However, they serve to reflect some light when worn & create a little "bling" effect.

Price shown is discounted if bought in a set.

Sheer Elegance Earrings NOW $8.80 (Was $12)


A simple and matching pair of earrings to Sheer Elegance Necklace. Hanging from kidney ear wires are 2 differing sizes of Swarovski pearls with a little dainty wire work design separating the pearls.
A totally simple yet clean & classic look. Rather dainty too and goes with anything. Length of earrings can be customised.

Sheer Elegance NOW $18 (Was $25)


The first necklace to make its appearance on this website with more to come...
Stringed with catwire, the necklace is made up of alternating Swarovski crystals and Japanese glass beads. 3 Swarovski pearls of different sizes drop from the necklace, forming the focal piece. The length of the necklace can be customised and is meant to be worn short (more as a choker) so that necklace sits nicely on the neck with a drop of pearls. Great for evening wear or simply with a V-neck or tube top.

Le Amour NOW $16 (Was $22)



A rather unique bracelet. Inspiration just struck me yesterday and I had to go get some of the materials I was lacking on the spot to make this! An asymmetrical bracelet - at 1 end of the bracelet, 2 Japanese black beads with golden swirls and a gold filigee, forming a trio beads' image; at the other end, dangle a heart shaped painted bead - linked together with a golden links' chain. The interesting thing is that the clasp is actually a toggle and it is supposed to be in front since the toggle forms part of the design of the bracelet with beautiful flowers anointing the rim. Once worn, the trio beads and heart and toggle all come together to form a nice picture...Definitely a head turner & boy, am I so proud & fond of this design!
