Baubles for the Birds

Studio A La Mode's Aqua

Ornate brass filigree bead caps, slender tube beads, spikey spacers, and brass pineapple beads of natural brass add an earthy elegance and sophistication to this misty turquoisey bracelet. These lampwork beads were made from copper green moretti glass, which when melted, turns this lovely shade of blue-green. After individually shaping the beads, I rolled them in crushed raku, then returned them to the flame, which has given the effect that these beads were lightly dusted. Pineapple beads are tucked inside the beadcaps for an unusual offset for the bracelet's center.

Aranwen's Jewelry "Spring's Melody" design

Hello!

This is my contribution to "Spring's Melody". I'm crazy about cameos, and this project couldn't be any different! This cuff features a lovely lady with flowers in her hair, gazing outside her window where beautiful butterflies fly in celebration of Spring.

Gorgeous filigree all across the cuff, with a bit of ivory on the cameo and the pearl.
