Eversince I received a package of rock crystals in the mail, I’ve imagined all the jewelry designs to have something of a winter-snow effect…..with the glistening whiteness of the crystals, that’s all I could ever think about.  So together with my stash of white stones, I decided to come up with a collection which I aptly named: WINTER SONATA.

Here are some of the pieces so far:

ICICLE EARRINGS

SPRING IN WINTER EARRINGS
Rock crystals  are woven around the disc to give the effect of icicles falling from a tree to its leaves.

The leaves are made from faceted apple green chalcedony briolettes (11 carats).

ICEBERG EARRINGS

The name says it all, right?  Rock crystal chips are woven in crocheted sterling silver wire.

WINTER PRINCESS EARRINGS

A very delicate-looking but sturdy pair of earrings.

Crocheted sterling silver wire formed into a flower from where white faceted jade briolettes hang.
