Custom Clasp

I had a particularly lovely little custom order to do this week. 

Linda Weiland is an amazing woman who was recently elected as the president for the Honolulu chapter of 

Zonta; a womens advocacy group. You can check out her blog here.

Linda got some fabulous pearls from an estate sale several years ago, but sadly the clasp just wasn't up to snuff. I built a delicate little gold S shaped clasp right onto the necklace. 

Linda hand picked 3 beautiful pieces of green amazonite which I made into matching earrings and pendant, with a bail large enough to slip over her wonderful pearls.

The Lady Will Have Labradorite

I had a really fun project to work on this week.

A friend of mine, TS, went to Kauai recently with her little girl, B.While they were there, they stopped by a rock shop where B picked out a special stone; a lovely little soft piece of yellow labradorite.



They brought it back to Honolulu where TS asked me to fashion it into a pendant for B to wear, a special little heirloom mother to daughter love gift.

Because B is so little still, we made the chain adjustable.

B loves it, she kept calling it her "princess necklace"
