For ease of use the gemstones on this site are divided in to varieties or as I call them “families”.Therefore you will find separate pages for information on Agate, Chalcedony, Feldspar, Jasper, Obsidian, and Quartz and at present other stones.On each “family” page you will find information concerning the history and metaphysical (healing) properties of each stone.
Some people choose stones for their colour whilst others may choose them for their healing qualities.Some also select them by the birthstone. Whichever way you choose a gemstone, the best advice I can give (as I cannot always decided myself because I like so many!) is to pick the one you are most drawn to at the time, as that will be the one that works best for you.
Where you see FWP this refers to Fresh Water Pearl and BGS means Blue Goldstone.
My range is quite eclectic, so hopefully there will be something to suit everyone.My designs vary from classic, modern, gothic/medieval and tribal.I am unable to stick to one style because I like everything!So I hope that you can find something you love too.
Many of these pieces are one-off designs which allow someone to own something unique.
When you purchase a piece of my jewellery you will receive it in a gift box or pouch, along with an information card about the history and metaphysical properties of that particular gem.
Shop pages
The shop pages are divided into Bracelets, Earrings and Necklaces. On these pages you will find designs in various gemstones. However there are exceptions for :
Amethyst Fresh Water Pearl (FWP) Hematite Jasper
There is also a shop page for “Tudor Jewellery".
These designs are inspired by jewellery of that period.If like me, you love anything medieval then this is the jewellery for you! These designs are made with A Grade Amethyst and Fresh Water Pearl.They are beautiful, unusual and opulent and with handmade fancy sterling silver beads they really make a statement.
There are also designs in Garnet and Fresh Water Pearl.

Silver Gemstone Jewellery & Commissions
Each piece of jewellery is lovingly and carefully designed. I purposely create jewellery for its metaphysical properties. Where there is a combination of stones they are dowsed for compatibility. Certain types of gemstones such as jasper and agate for example, may vary in shade and markings, when this occurs I take time to match the beads either side so that designs are symmetrical.
I work with a variety of stones, jaspers from around the world (several which are still relatively new to the market), fluorite, hematite, carnelian, agate, black tourmaline and quartz, black obsidian, labradorite, prehnite, fresh water pearl, mother of pearl, tigers eye, tiger iron, pink opal and pieter site.
I also specialize in jewellery for psychic protection. Certain crystals can be worn to protect one from negative people or situations and also psychic attack from spirits of entities. When worn or carried these stones create a protective barrier around the auric field but must be regularly psychically cleansed the same as all stones.
For more information about psychic protection please see the "Protection" page. Protection
Pricing - Affordable & Unique
I sometimes work with A Grade stones.This means that they are the highest quality available in that mineral.As they are a higher grade they do cost more to purchase therefore any designs in A Grade will be slightly more expensive but their quality is exceptional.For example A Grade Amethyst is a deep rich purple and is far superior to normal Amethyst.
I always try to obtain good prices when purchasing beading stock as I like to keep the costs down for my customers so that they can own a unique piece of jewellery at an affordable price. Any savings I make are always passed on and reflected in the retail price as I do not believe in overcharging. Prices charged for each piece of jewellery are based upon the cost of the stock and the time involved in creating the design as many pieces can take several hours to make. A lot of the designs also use a great deal of Silver and many gemstone beads.
I also undertake commissions.If stock has to be purchased I will require a 50% non-refundable deposit before work commences.I will email you will a photograph of the design before completion.I really enjoy making one-off pieces so that someone can own something individual.
