New listings in my Etsy shop

Some beautiful new jewels in my Etsy shop, but with a different kind of bronze, ancient bronze!  I had a custom order from a gentleman in the Netherlands and he wanted his double owl talon pendant a warmer, rosier color so I suggested ancient bronze.  I hadn't worked with ancient bronze before and I'm really loving it and the rosy hue.  I hope you do too!

Manganese bronze five talon and blue stone ring.

Owl talon cocktail ring

Oh yes, I could rock this with a black pencil skirt and snazzy top - nice and shiny talon bronze makes an outfit. This ring is similar to the one I made previously but is cast entirely in manganese bronze. In addition, the entire shank is the actual skin of the upper talon.

I just love a giant cocktail ring.

Just listed on my Eilisain Etsy site.



On my pretty quartz crystal. I think it brings me good luck.
Two talons grasping each other.
Happy Spring!

the power of the bear

A single bear claw charm has a quiet yet powerful elegance to it, and also holds some of the mystery and potential of the bear.

Both cast in sterling silver and the rich manganese bronze. I like wearing them with several other charms on a long 20" inch chain.

On sale in my Eilisain Etsy Shop, $50 without the chain.

My jewelry just photographs so much better with the white quartz crystal.

Thanks for visiting and happy Friday!

The Crow claw


Finally got this beauty photographed. I just love how I got the claw to bend as loop to hold the chain.

Hope you're enjoying

Charm and chain

Some lil' charms for good luck this year!

This pendant is delicate but strong at the same time. I never thought I'd love bronze so much but that high gold shine is irresistible!

Now on sale in my Eilisain Etsy shop.

I also have the charm talons in sterling silver.

This is a great layering necklace, to go with any other lil' charms one has collected, like me!

Hope you're enjoying the weekend!

I seriously can't get enough of these talons, I've got a lil' brooch in the works, a crazy-ass ring and much more, very excited.

I hope you like them and happy Friday!!

The Hunted - New Earrings in my Etsy shop

I've been grinding away in the studio lately - early morning hours are when I'm most productive and it's been wonderful - to creatively expand and float on with new materials....like resin!

Resin making has been on my mind since last semester, when I created two brooches, one using resin. This time I used a special ingredient in addition to using my new molds - talons!!!

I'm loving the aggressive and edgy look of talons. I've got more work coming but for now you can purchase these lovelies on my Eilisain Etsy site.

White resin, black onyx, manganese bronze
and brass earrings.

White HOT!


Thank you for reading!
