S's Private Order

My friend, S, wanted a sweet and pretty bracelet for someone. So I made a potpurri of something in soft shades of purple and pink.

Materials used include handmade clay lentils, fluted agate beads, purple african jade in puffed oval, freahwater pearls and pink czech glass beads. All hardware in 925 silver.
What I love about this piece is no matter how the bracelet sits on yout wrist, there is something pretty and interesting to look at!

Misty $35 (SOLD)

Hi folks, it's been awhile...but it has been sheer maddness at work recently.

Anyhow, been wanting to do this piece for awhile and finally had sometime for some creative work. Using, misty grey cat's eye ovals that has a faceted cut which really reflects light well, I have teamed them with a puffed oval tensha bead that sits to the side and black faceted czech glass beads.
Necklace length is about 16-17 inches.

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.





Jermaine $20 (SOLD)


A pair of polymer clay beads that I've got Ade to specially customised for me. Swirls of blue hues, white and dotted with silver sparkles and 2 sweet pinkish flowers embellish the top. Dangling below are various shades of Swarovski crystals (aquamarine, midnight, sapphire, black diamond, montana) with a little freshwater pearl.
A pair of turquoise glass brios dangles at the bottom, bringing the length of the earrings to 4cm below the kidney wires (6cm if inclusive of the earwires).
A demure yet unique looking pair of earrings.

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.

Another clay creation. This time a long double-tiered necklace formed using green adveturine barrels and rondells, interspersed with pearls, filigree beads and pewter beads. If u notice not only does the clay beads sit at the side of the necklace, the necklace is tiered asymetrically too.

Adele $20

Another creation made using Charlene's (from the Tinkle Art Room) handmade clay bead. I really like the colour of this particular one-light turquoise base with pink/purple swirls and bits of silver foil.

This pretty clay bead really doesn't need much so I have teamed it with a pinkish fluted agate bead and embellished with some Swarovski crystals and pearls. Metal parts are 925 silver.
The pendant is about 4cm long and hangs from a turquoise braided leather about 17 inches in length. Only one piece is available as I have other plans for the rest of the beads.

Star Bright $16 (SOLD)

Blue coin-shaped glass beads anchors this delectable pair of earrings. Dangling from the glass beads are Swarovski crystals and a little star frame.

This slim pair of earrings dangles about 5.5cm below the ear wires. And the blue beads are about 1cm wide.

Glazed Cherries $20 (SOLD)


It's a yummy necklace so I can't help it with the food analogy :P

Anyway, wavy glass foil beads flanked by red coins with gold flecks. All strung on a red brown leather tong.
This necklace is really long and its meant to be wound twice ard the neck. Perfect with a casual outfit.

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.

Golden Showers $22


In this frenzy of posting up some of the items I've completed some time back, I decided to save the best for the last.
Imagine the rays of the sun falling on you.. bathing you in warmth such that you seemingly radiate an aura of light...
14K gold-plated filigees with an AB gold finishing glass briolettes dangling in the midst (the colours of the briolettes just do not show up in this picture). Sweet peachy Swarovski crystals swaying and it ends with another treasure: a pair of multi-faceted carnelian drops.
This pair is pricier due to the use of gold-filled earwires (which are as good as gold). Do note that as the carnelian drops are natural stones, each stone and each pair will differ in terms of colours and shapes. If you need just 1 pair of earrings, this will be it.

Imperial Purple $18


Beautiful metal filigees themed with sashaying Swarovski crystals and 2 multi-faceted crystals swaying at the bottom.
Need I say more??
