Jewelry with a Message

These bracelets are inspired by the acrostic jewellery that was most popular in the Victorian times. Jewelry overall was very symbolic that time. Every flower and symbol was linked with some meaning but they also had hidden messages in precious stones. First letter of every stone spelled a word.

I played with glass rhinestones. I have quite a lot of them by now and here I've used Western Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakian glass rhinestones. Every color represents a stone, and first letter of every stone spells the word. Rhinestones and French antique white Prosser beads are on memory wire. These bangle bracelets will go both my Etsy and Dawanda shops.

These bracelets are perfect for layering and stacking

REGARD - ruby, emerald, garnet, aquamarine, ruby, diamond

ADORE - amethyst, diamond, opal, ruby, emerald

DEAREST - diamond, emerald, amethyst, ruby, emerald, sapphire, topaz

Need käevõrud on inspireeritud ehetest, mis olid eriti populaarsed Viktooria ajastul. Nimelt olid ehted tollal väga tähenduslikud. Vähe sellest, et iga lill ja sümbol oli seotud mingi mõttega, peideti sõnumeid ka kalliskividesse. Iga kalliskivi nimetuse esimene täht andis kokku sõna.

Mina mängisin muidugi klaaskividega. Neid on mul kogunenud paras hulk ning kasutanud olen siin Lääne Saksamaa, Austria ja Tšehhoslovakkia klaaskive. Iga värv esindab vastavalt kalliskivi, mille ingliskeelne nimetus annab kokku sõna. Eelpainutatud traadile lükkisin veel läikega valged vanad Prosser helmed Prantsusmaalt. Käevõrud lähevad nii Etsy kui ka DaWanda poodi.
