You'll probably have observed that I dabble in different styles of jewellery. And for the life of me, up till now, I still haven't really figured out what I like best or what my so-called "style" is. So bear with me :P
I've started buying vintage beads again - glass or acrylic, they all look nice and appeal to me in a non-mass-market way. The types that I like are the ones with etched textures and designs. So wonderfully tactile and interesting; you don't often come across beads like that these days. Probably the best thing about vintage loot is that you'd be hard-pressed to bump into someone wearing the same thing as you, but the fact that the acrylic beads are amazingly lightweight for their size comes a close second.
Here are some recent limited edition creations - all are accented with the same sterling/goldfill and quality materials as my other works:
Have a great weekend :)
