A Few Citrine Pieces for November


Tuesday, November 08, 2011




The word "busy" does not begin to describe the last few weeks! Here are some of the citrine jewelry pieces I managed to make along the way when I could find quiet stretches of time to work. I am one of those people who has to have hours ahead of me to create - knowing I have a spare hour or two just doesn't work for me. I've been mixing citrine with some of my favorite gemstones (citrine is a personal favorite that I wear often in the form of 2 rings, earrings, and bracelets). Above is a citrine and ruby bracelet with sterling silver. Below is a citrine bracelet with a mixture of artist's lampwork beads, crazy lace agate, yellow calcite.



The bracelets below are first, a citrine and silver one-strand bracelet with a carved amethyst flower atop the focal citrine.  The center of the amethyst flower is a deep yellow sapphire.
    




The earrings above are made of fantastic faceted rectangles of citrine.  They have a very elegant look.
Below, the earrings feature carved citrines and faceted citrines in one set of earrings.


Above,gorgeous carved gemstone leaves have dark yellow faceted nuggets hanging in front of them.
