Deira - Personalized jewelry Birthstone necklace Statement necklace. Handmade gemstone jewelry by Arctida

Back in 2008 I've made a long statement necklace with combination of 7 different gemstones for myself (Deira). In the beginning I wasn't planning to have this design for sale but I started to have custom request from friends and coworkers who've seen it and wanted their own version. Usually people would choose the Birthstones that would have a connection to their family-members or gemstones from some special event/place in their life. So I thought I'll show you some of those that I've had a chance to photograph :)

 

If you wish to order your own Personalized Birthstone necklace, you can order it my Arctida webshop.

This necklace was originally made for my own private collection back in 2008. But after getting a request for the same model from two co-workers and a neighbour, I thought that maybe this design wasn’t as boring as I thought from beginning and decided to list it in my shops :)

I can also make a Personalized Birthstone necklace with gemstones of your choice, just contact me so that we can discuss your custom design

Darlene - Gil Elvgren pin-up girls inspired necklace in 14K gold filled with Citrine, Garnet and Rubies

This week EST challenge's theme was "Gil Elvgren pin-up" hosted by oneperfectday.

After checking out his work I’ve got inspiration to make something gorgeous and sparkly for those beautiful cleavages that his girls have :) Off course it had to be in red and gold tones as it seems to be an appropriate color combination for pin up in my opinion :) So here is my Darlene – Champagne Citrine, Garnet, Gold and Ruby coiled artisan necklace.

Perhaps something this girl wouldn’t mind wearing… :)
