Tiny Bow Necklace – all sterling silver

2010 September 3

Tiny Bow Necklace - all sterling silver

Description:

A small reminder
Softly lingers
The piece of string
Around her finger

A delicate bow that will last longer than even the strongest of strings or ribbons. This necklace is so sweet, innocence and feminine.

Each of these bows is slightly different, and truly unique.

Slight variation from one to another. These are created without the use of a pattern, so each has its own unique form.

If you would like me to send a photo of the exact necklace that you will be receiving prior to shipment, please let me know.

Total length of sterling silver chain is about 16" (40.5 cm). Bow measures less than 1 inch long (about 3.5 cm). Please contace me if you would like me to modify the length. I think this looks best worn close to the neck, but I will gladly make it whatever length you prefer.

Clasp is a sterling silver lobster claw style.

Soft Whisper Necklace - 12K gold fill and peachy pink pearls

Light falls across the book
In her lap
A single tendril of hair
Falling across her eyes
I whisper to her
"You are beautiful."

So feminine and soft, you’ll want to wear it every day.

This necklace is best worn close to the neck.

Learning more about gold-fill:

Gold-filled components are composed of a solid layer of gold bonded to red brass. Gold-filled items can be worn daily for many years without wearing through (up to 30), and as per Federal Trade Commission standards, if the gold layer is 12 K or higher, the minimum layer of karat gold in the item must equal at least 1/20 the weight of the total item. Gold-filled items are also 50 to 100,000 times thicker than regular gold plating.

Love is Golden Necklace - pearls and 12K gold-fill

Description:

Her heart was filled
With love
And her days
Were filled with it

Love, after all, is what makes the world go around.

All components, from the wire used to form the word "Love" and the wire linking the pearls together, down to the lobster claw clasp, are made of 12K gold fill. The color of the wire is difficult to capture, and so I have included several photos. It is best described as a rich golden honey color.

Total length of necklace is about 17" (43 cm). Pearls are about 4 mm in diameter. Please contact me if you would like to modify the length.

Dimensions of the word "Love" are approximately 1.5 inches long (4 cm) x 5/8" (17 mm) tall.

Cloudless Sky Ring – Swarovski crystal, Bali silver, and sterling silver

2010 July 7

Cloudless Sky Ring - Swarovski crystal, Bali silver, and sterling silver

Description:

Clear as a day
When the skyline
Cannot be found
Beyond the cloudless
Sky

Different from the Swarovski crystals that I normally use, this one has no shiny finish, which creates the effect of blue milk poured into the shape of a cube. Beautifully translucent, and accented by delicate Bali silver beads, this ring will quickly become a favorite.

Hand-wrapped with sterling silver wire and love. Cubic Swarovski crystal measures 6 mm across.

I can make this ring in almost any size.

Please indicate what size you would like this ring to be at time of purchase under "Message to Seller," or simply click on "Contact PianoBenchDesigns" and let me know what size you would prefer.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The Swarovski crystal is set flush with the ring, but may loosen over time. The ones that I wear often have a bit of wiggle room, but the stone will not turn freely.

crystals, silver
