Amethyst, Ornate Irridescent Pendant

Vanessa - artisan at InspiredDesigns4YOU.
Hi Everyone, welcome to my Jewellery Shop!

The dog days of summer are upon us here in Toronto!

Golden sunshine brings warmth to the evening horizons, like a smiling child.

I have been shopping for you and pleased to announce my latest items in my shop.  This is a genuine amethyst pendant surrounded with 925 silver. Suspended on a lovely bail.

It has all the characteristics of another era: Edwardian, Art Deco or Roaring Twenties!

"Amethyst Vintage Purple passion pendant. Vibrant iridescent shades of purple, light mauve and soft blue depending on how the light captures this lovely gemstone. Fine detailing wraps the gemstone in lovely ornate detailing, suspended silver bail with a sterling silver 16 inch chain, with an 1 inch extender.

Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz often used in jewelry. The name comes from the Ancient Greek  ("not") and μέθυστος methustos ("intoxicated"), a reference to the belief that the stone protected its owner from drunkenness. The ancient Greeks and Romans wore amethyst and made drinking vessels of it in the belief that it would prevent intoxication. It is one of several forms of quartz. Amethyst is the traditional birthstone for February"

Reflective Crystals a Prism of Delight

June 6, 2012

Hi Everyone!

Summer is not too far away -- although nature is a little wet out there tonight. As you might be drinking a nice warm drink or perhaps a cold one.  I thought I'd let you know about a new selection of Semi-precious stones: Swarovski necklace/pendant in my shop.   This was for a custom/reserve design.    I also made a matching key ring as you see on the (right). The pendant is on the (left).

Warm crystal as a glow to the heart
Passionate, fire red like the glow of a warm fire,

 flickering of crystal prism capturing your heart!


I love designing from nature that surrounds me. I enjoy designing items for special occasions like 'graduation' this one is featuring:  a marine blue heart 28mm, with 2 sky blue 14mm heart earrings suspended on french sterling silver ear wires.    The necklace is held on a sterling silver 16 mm chain with a 2 inch extender chain.

Cool Marine Heart matched with Sky Blue Earrings



"Reflective Crystals a Prism of Delight" are available in my shop sections.

New Item: Clip-on Earrings - Southwest Style

Hi everyone!

Vanessa here from InspiredDesigns4YOU.

A family member asked me to make her clip-on earrings as she didn't have pierced ears!

That is a problem, not many designs on the market for clip-on or non-pierced ears. The market didn't address this very well. So I decided to change that.

She is a classic lady, with discerning taste and style: her wish list was southwest, with Mexican or native influences, carefree and fun, hypo-allergenic and nickel free.

Fun and playful -- perhaps dreaming of a walk along a sandy beach, with foaming spray tickling her cheek like laughing children.  All kinds of images came into play......as I looked around nature and my environment.
Classic Female Statue - Guild Inn
So I started to work away and the design,

Clip-on Southwest Style
I was pleased with the results.. the coolness of the silver and turquoise complemented each other nicely.
