Third one

See on see kolmas kaelakee, mille tegin koos nendega. Ripatsi osas on kahes suuruses sama värvi navette-kujulised kivid. Värv on neil helesinine givré - see on siis helesinise ja läbipaistva klaasi segu (rohkem olen kirjutanud givré-klaasist siin). Klaaspärlid on õrn-roosad :)

This is the third necklace that I made the same time as these. The pendant part has same colored navettes in two sizes. The color is light blue givré - that is a mix of light blue and clear glass (I wrote more about givré glass here). Glass pearls are delicate pink :)

Custom Made

Olen selle kolmanda kaelakee üles leidnud, kuid pildid veel tegemata, nii et, järgmine kord :)
Siin on kaks tellimustööd. Kõrvarõngapaar läks varem valminud kaelakee juurde. Valged klaashelmed ja klaasist ehtekivid. Must käekett Maaritile on tehtud Preciosa kristall ehtekividest ja klaashelmestest. Lubasin, et mingit pikka segavat ja rippuvat asja sinna juurde ei pane, kuid natuke ikka panin - hästi vähe ;) Loodan, et ei sega...

I have found the third necklace that I told about you in my previous post, but since I haven't yet made any photos, I'll show you later :)
Here are two custom made jewerly pieces. The earring pair was ordered to be combined with the white necklace I made some time ago. White glass beads and glass rhinestones. The black bracelet for Maarit is made with black Preciosa crystal rhinestones and black glass beads. I wasn't ment to put anything long and dangling in this bracelet but I couldn't really help myself and still put some... Some little ones ;)

Necklaces

Kaelakeed. Tegelikult tegin kolm, aga ei leia ühte üles, eks siis näitan hiljem. Kõik on ühe põhimõttega. Vanaaegsed kivid on kõik navette-kujulised, lisaks klaaspärleid ja helmeid.
Esimene on mul lemmik. Sellel on neli 15x7mm klaaspärli ehtekivi, need on vanad, ent ei oska öelda, kui vanad ja kustkohast pärit. Pisut kulunud on need ka. Neil on tunnel põhjast läbi, mistõttu kasutati neid arvatavasti tikkimisel või kasutati nööpidena. Roosad (rosalin) ja pruunakad (smoke topaz) on 8x4mm ja pärit Tšehhoslovakkiast. Lille sees olev klaaspärlike on pärit Lääne Saksamaalt. Ketiosas olevad valged pärlid (vbl on plastikust) on samuti lammutatud vanast ehtest, ülejäänud helmed ja klaaspärlid (mink) on tänapäeva Tšehhist.
Roosakad sabrina-tüüpi klaaskivid peaks olema pärit Lääne Saksamaalt, neil on pressitud lehemuster peale. Kristall-värvi väikesed navette-kivid on Tšehhoslovakkiast, ülejäänud helmed-pärlid on Tšehhist. Aga aitab jutust, las pildid räägivad enda eest.

Necklaces. There were actually three of them but I cant find one so I'll show it some other time. All of them are made with the same conception. Vintage rhinestones are in the shape of navette, I added some glass pearls and beads.
The first one is my favourite. It has four 15x7mm glass pearl rhinestones, these are vintage but I don't know how old they are or where they're from. They aren't perfect, with some damage on the pearl coating. They have a tunnel the goes through the bottom part so I assume they were used for embroidery or sewing as buttons. Pink (rosalin) and brown (smoked topaz) glass rhinestones are 8x4mm and were made in Czechoslovakia. Tiny glass pearl cabochon inside the flower was made in Western Germany. In beaded chain the white pearls (could be plastic) I took from an old jewelry piece, other glass beads and pearls (mink) are made in Czech Republic.
Pinkish sabrina-type glass rhinestones are probably from Western Germany, they have leaf pattern on the surface. Crystal glass navettes were made in Czechoslovakia. All glass pearls and beads are from nowadays Czech Republic. But enough talk for now, let photos speak for themselves.

Amber necklace

Siin on üks tellimustöö, mida pole näidanud. Alguse sai see kliendi merevaigutükkidest. Ma pole eriti merevaigufänn ja selle toon minu kogemuse järgi ei sobi iga inimese jumega. Nii oli mu eesmärk värvitooni pisut lahjendada ilma, et tekiks kontrast. Juurde sai lisatud punast ahhaati (mikrolihviga), erinevaid värvitud mageveepärleid, naturaalset pleegitamata pärlmutrit, punast jaspist ja "ookeani" jaspist, beeže Miyuki seemnehelmeid ning muidugi palju-palju Tai hõbehelmeid (vähemalt 980 prooviga). Kaelakee on pisut ebasümmeetriline. Värvitoonid on kõige õigemad esimesel pildil.

This is a custom made piece I made a while back. It all started with clients amber beads. I'm not particularly a fan of amber and I've noticed that it doesn't always compliment the clients skin type. So I needed to soften it without creating a contrast. I added microfaceted red agate, different dyed freshwater pearls, natural undyed mother of pearl, red jasper and ocean jasper, beige Miyuki seedbeads and ofcourse a lot of Thai silver beads. The necklace came out a bit assymetrical. I managed to capture the right colors only on the first photo.
