New Toys

So from the piles of broken remains (previous post) come many many many beautiful new stones to work with. This batch is particularly exciting as it has some great materials that I am especially fond of: chrysoprase, fossilized coral, dino bone, agate, carnelian, polish flint, and the list goes on. Already sourcing rough for the next order, thinking bright bright colors.

Broken Remains

Stones are great, I love stones, we love stones, but sometimes the perfect stones just aren't available for a project....and when that happens, it's time to take matters into your own hands.

The finished product is going to stay a secret for a bit, but this is the scrap, the remains, the refuse, but oh those colors are great!

It’s been five years since we recited our vows and started this life together. Our family has gotten smaller and bigger in that time, and is continuing to grow. I can’t think of anyone I would rather have as a partner in travel, in challe

New set of saucer cufflinks - sterling silver, pink tourmaline cabs and faceted sapphires. Something to see from the front and the back. Recently made a custom set of these for a Father’s Day gift with the lovely couple’s kid’s birthstones (ruby and tourmaline) as the cabs and the mother’s birthstone (emerald) in the backs. Jewelry should be personal! #grspearman #customjewelry #handmade #tourmaline #cufflinks #sapphire #finejewelry
Rose cut top quality carnelian how we love thee - hard to find this material/good cutting any more, this stone actually came out of an old stock that was cut in Germany back in the late 80’s when they were still the center of precision cutting

Pic of the Day

Very flattered and excited to have my peridot branch ring selected as today's Jewellry Monthly Instagram piece of the day. Check them out at http://www.jewellerymonthly.com and just because I love this ring so much...here's another look at it. ​

Peridot Branch Halo.jpg

New off the bench

Based off a recent custom order, this time in black rhodium and amethyst with a diamond checkerboard cut. Also in the works with citrine and topaz. Not visible from this angle, but these rings all have colored sapphires placed randomly around the side of the settings. ​

A Little Something Wild

These are not for the faint of heart. Amethyst crystals cut from the tip of stalactites with amethyst cabochons surrounding green quartz drops; post backs and all in black rhodium. Was channeling G.O.T. while putting this design together. These are truly one of a kind, are you bold enough to wear them?? ​

New Custom Order(s)

Customer Requirements:

  1. Purple/red center stone
  2. Unique non-round cut
  3. Similar setting to my heliodor ring design

Finished Product:​

This bright bauble features a checkerboard cut amethyst center stone with purple sapphires scattered around the sides of the setting. Thinking this design might find its way into the store. ​

​

New Off the Bench

This BIG beauty is a cocktail ring featuring a stunning 2.5ct peridot surrounded by rubies pave set in 14kt yellow gold on a blackened sterling silver branch band. This one catches eyes from across very large rooms. 

CUSTUM FUN

A very happy client took delivery of this little beauty just in time for the holidays. 

Kass Ring.jpg

14kt Yellow gold, matte finished (in our secret way that adds extra sparkle) and set with a faceted indigo kyanite.

Bohemian Bangles

These were inspired by my wonderful sister. Worn as a stack they have a great play of light and color and the hammered texture gives just an added extra glimmer. More to come, this is just the first round.

  

14kt Yellow gold with sapphires and brown & white diamonds.     

 

Sterling Silver, Amethyst, Citrine, Labrodorite, Smokey Quartz    

new stuff

The title pretty much sums it up - check out lots of new photos of custom faceted stones and new jewelry in the Collections section. In case you are too lazy to search it out, here is a little sample. 

 

June Pipeline

The last batch is off being photographed, and now for the new stuff - all over the place this month - but spring has had a distinct influence... naturally I will have these pieces out just in time for fall; punctual as always.
