Blue Agate and Orange Necklace
From the Bohemian Collection. Inspired by the use of complimentary colours, I created a necklace combining blue agate and rust coloured Buri beads which are native to the Philippines and attained from the root of the Buri tree. Pale blue, vintage, tube beads form the loop to join the pendant to the main part of the necklace. The casual way things are put together is the concept of Boho expression. Natural materials such as the large, round, wooden beads are part of this relaxed style. Bronze finished metal spacer beads and toggle add to this bold creation designed to accent the neckline.

Boho Indigo and Magenta Necklace
From the Bohemian Collection. Pops of colour in this Boho style necklace are achieved by raw blue lapis lazuli which I found in Mercer Island near Seattle, and African multi coloured vinyl phono record !!! beads. Traditionally, African women wore these around their waist to attract attention to the feminine sway of the hips as they walked. The concept of Boho fashion is put together by the freedom of expression in the selection of beautiful brass tone metal spiral Tibetan pendants handmade in Nepal and the handmade clasp. The focal point is the the natural wood pendant embodying the nature theme Bohemian style. This one of a kind relaxed style creates an individual identity.
My relaxed style in my creations is my trademark. This piece is truly a labour of love.
