As the nights start to draw in and we enter autumn Mother nature starts to change the colours of our world and to me this is when we see some of the most stunning natural colours and these golds, ambers, oranges and browns that can be seen inspire me to create some of my semi-precious jewellery designs.

Here are two of the pieces that I have handmade from the semi-precious stone Carnelian and Smoky Quartz.

The semi-precious stone earrings are a simple design that show off the stunning colours of these semi-precious stones.

At the base of the earrings I have placed a faceted nugget of Smoky Quartz and this has been set under round faceted beads of the semi-precious stone Carnelian and with this earring design I have used Sterling Silver earring hooks and beads.

This pair of semi-precious earrings have been made from faceted beads so the light catches them beautifully.

You can see with the colours in this leaf why I love autumn and the wonder of Mother Nature

In this beautiful semi-precious stone  necklace design I have used both smoky Quartz and Golden Smoky Quartz and they look stunning placed together.

I have created a pendant for this handmade jewellery design my placing centre drilled nuggets of the semi-precious Golden Smoky Quartz and these have been threaded onto Sterling Silver wire and spaced with Sterling Silver beads.

The semi-precious pendant hangs from a unique handmade necklace crafted from nuggets of Smoky Quartz and Carnelian.

I have added the golden orange of the Carnelian to this design to compliment the brown and gold of the Smoky Quartz and they look beautiful together.

These pieces of semi-precious handmade jewellery are a tribute to Mother Nature.
