Nan Porcelain Necklace


I bought a bunch of these vintage porcelain ovals a while ago and have just started working with them. I have several different designs. This one has a sweet floral motif. Bezel set in sterling with an antique finish, I think it has the feeling of an heirloom. The 6mm moonstone rounds that adorn the chain contrast really nicely with the dark oxidation. I call it Nan Porcelain and it's available in my Etsy shop. Look for more of these ovals to be coming out soon in various designs - although I'm sort of partial to the simpler design that focuses on the porcelain.

Delftish Necklace

I recently found these vintage porcelain oval cabacon in a bead store. Aren't they groovy? I have several different designs. Here's the first thing I made with them. It reminds me of the Delft blue china and I tried to compliment it with an antique finish on the silver. I call it Delftish and it's already found a new home.
