Description Remember when you were a kid and sticks and leaves made great jewelry?

Hand-crafted fine silver. This was made out of a whole buch of extra leaves I had (some were 'test leaves' that I almost melted down because they weren't of any obvious use). I call this piece 'treasures' because of that - these leaves are treasures that were almost trash.
This one jingles a lot, and is really fun to wear.

Jewelry is hard, you're right, but once you get the right tools, it's just as easy as cooking... not that I can cook.

Wow. If I could buy something like that I would. But I'm guess it would cost quite a bit for all that work and detail and the fact that I'm in canada But that is absolutely gorgeous!!!!!

oooooooooooh? Really? Sooooooo. If you were to make one of those and send it to canada ... how much would it cost?

Klyph In reply to SweetMysterium [2006-06-14 05:08:36 +0000 UTC]

On average, a custom silver bracelet is about $150 USD and give or take a few features like precious/semi-precious stones, gold/pink gold vermeil, making the silver into black silver, etc.

I work with 99.9% fine silver, made from scratch. I can't use 92.5% sterling silver for the shapes, flowers, and leaves that I do -- sterling is too hard and brittle for me. If you're interested, please feel free to note me anytime!

Aldalambe [2006-05-12 00:21:06 +0000 UTC]

This is gorgeous.

May I suggest using a black or a dark blue surface here? I think it would better compliment the silver.

Yeah, I used black for the wintermoon picture, and that came out nicer.

Wow, this is really beautiful! I want one like that! Too bad there are no bracelets with leaves where I live. And I so like silver leaves *sigh*. You did a excellent job on this. I never saw a bracelet prettier than this one...(seriously)

Thank you so much! I'm so glad I didn't just melt the leaves, they look great all together like this.

Oh my, this is so beautiful! I love leaves in jewelery. My grandmother once gave me a gold necklace, with a tiny gold leaf on it. Now I don't know where it is.
Do you sell the stuff you make?

Klyph In reply to neeta [2006-05-16 10:27:51 +0000 UTC]

I try to sell stuff I make. *lol* At the moment, it's a struggle. Hopefully, some day, if I try hard enough, it will get easier.

I make vermeil gold leaves... it's not real gold, but it's thick gold plating over fine silver, I might be able to find a similar leaf for you.

I do remember how sticks and leaves and flowers were better than mom's gold any day xD This is just lovely, really. I keep thinking of this as something faerie-esque, too.

Very Fae- huh?
There's a gallery at one of the hotels around here that's doing a 'fairy festival'. They want to display this on one of their models. The pay is good, but I'm not sure about these shows, they have been known to ruin fine jewelry before...
