Swirly Wedding Band Variations II



And while I am working on a swirly wedding band for an etsy customer, I might as well post more pictures of additional modifications I have done. Shown here are three more versions, one involving a bezel set stone mounted on top of the band, with sapphires set in the swirls. As I keep receiving more request for customized versions of the swirly band, I will post pictures here!

Swirly Wedding Band Variations I



It's good to be back in blogging business after the summer break! One of my most popular items at the ADZIA etsy shop is this swirly, curly gold wedding band. I started out making the band in 14k white gold, but customers have increasingly been requesting their own custom version, which I think is really cool! Posted above are pictures of a few variations on my swirly wedding band.

Here is my third set, out of five total, of dangle earrings. Each set of earrings features a pairing of two gemstones that complement each other. This set has gorgeous antique cushion cut aquamarines and round diamonds. The aquas are set in 14k white gold baskets that I have custom made. The baskets have a swirly, flower pattern on the side. The aquamarines measure 11.9 x 6.2 mm and have a total weight of 2.21 ct. The diamonds have a total weight of 0.24 ct. Additional images of this classy set can be seen here.

Ruby Diamond Earrings


I haven't made earrings lately, so I have started working on five different sets of dangle earrings. Each set will be a pairing of two kinds of precious gemstones, set in either 14k white or yellow custom made bezels or baskets. The first pair, combining lemon citrines with rhodolite garnets, is now for sale at my etsy.com shop. This second set pairs pear shaped rubies with diamonds, set in a custom 14k white gold basket. I have added extra detailing on the side walls of the basket. Three additional pair of earrings are on their way. The next one will have gorgeous aquamarine gemstones.
