Tribal Divinations

I've been conjuring some new jewelry designs inspired by tribal mysticism. I've been envisioning a celestial desert that is cool at night with the twinkling of stars. My current tribal jewelry designs are hybrids of Art Deco, Egyptian, and Southwestern styles, mixed together with hints of magic and whimsy. 


Metropolis Earrings available in Helio or Moon
These earrings vintage vintage glass with iridescent effects.
Helio has rainbow like colors and Moon is opalescent.




This necklace is called Vision Quest. I painted geometric designs
in purple and blue enamel upon a vintage brass Egyptian style crescent. The geometric design is inspired by Aztec art. The jewels are vintage West German, circa 1960.




Since I love hybrids, it's very fitting that this necklace is inspired by the mythical beast Chimera. Chimera was essentially a hybrid of a lot of different animals. A yellow glass eye stares from within a gold blazing sun. The sun sparkles with green jewels and takes flight with brass wings.



Also available to you are new cosmic pocket watch designs such as Mystic Star and Soleil Arcana.

Skullduggery and Elemental Flowers



Here's a sneak peak at some of my new midsummer designs!

I wanted to save you some time, so I piled on all my new designs at once. I started doing my own enameling, so you can expect vivid colors and twilight inspired gradients. I have custom distressed skulls looking cute and deadly on mint condition flowers from the 1960s. Vintage West German glass zodiac charms are set into rustic and colorful pendants. These pieces will transition beautifully into fall with a playful sense of gothic beauty.

I have new steampunk designs as well. Here's a feature of Time Travel of the Heart, a romantic pink and white flying machine statement necklace.

A vintage porcelain pocket watch face from Atlas Watch Company is the centerpiece of this whimsical necklace. The watch face is adorned with silver clock hands in a radial star like pattern. The star burst is topped with a jeweled pink plastic flower. Vintage blossoms in pink enamel and white lucite accent the upper corners of the pendant and add flourish to the soft angel wings on either side. The angel wings are created with vintage soft plastic wings from the 1960s.
