Fountains of Bellagio - Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini

Just got back from Vegas and I have to say, my favourite thing to do is to watch the beautiful water show in front of the hotel. The trip is not complete without having spent an hour or two watching the fountains. If you have been to Vegas and haven't seen it you are missing an amazing spectacle. The first time I saw it, it made me want to weep, but then they played Celine Dion and that ended it for me. Ha ha! Really, even watching the choreography to 'My Heart Will go on' and listening to her was kinda moving. Enjoy!

More Pendants and some semi-precious stones. Yum!

Click on the pictures for a closer look and then use the back button to return to this page.



The braclet above, is made of irresitably chunky amethyst and tiny peridot gemstone beads. The chain and clasp are sterling silver (of course!). This one is soooo extravagent on, very fringey look with layers of colour. It reminds me of Hawaiian hula skirt on my wrist (if hula skirts were made out of rocks ;-). Price $180. Matching earrings available.






Long Necklaces & Stuff

have been busy trying to get a lot of new things ready for the Fall sale. Here are some long necklaces (ranging from 22"-38") on beautiful sterling silver chain. Prices are between $90-$160.

The first 2 pictured are made up of Thai Silver beads, fresh water pearls and Swarovski Crystals, with a handmade lampwork bead focal.






The necklace below is made of Turquoise nugget beads (gemstone quality), the chain and components are sterling silver, the leaf is a carob leaf from the "Holy Land". What can't you find on the internet! It has been electroplated using silver. Kinda cool, eh? The circular silver component was made by me. Price $90. Matching earrings available in 2 styles!
