My Design Inspiration

I have always had a love for semi-precious gemstones, as well as fossils and rocks.  When designing handmade gemstone jewelry pieces, this passion is reflected in my designs. I am inspired by the natural minerals and fossils to create simple but expressive handcrafted jewelry designs.

Because natural gemstones and fossils can stand alone as a work of art, handcrafted gemstone jewelry has the ability to make a statement, no matter how simple the design.  I don't like to complicate my designs, as I don't want to take away from the natural beauty of the semi-precious gemstones and fossils. As an artist, using what is naturally beautiful is such a gift, and I enjoy using my creativity to showcase that beauty in the most simple way.

Gemstone jewelry by danielle is a collection of "one-of-a-kind" and a few "limited edition" handcrafted gemstone and fossil jewelry pieces using copper and silver. Because gemstones and fossils always vary in color and matrix, any of my handmade gemstone jewelry designs will be unique in some way.

New Jewelry Designs

As I write about each new design, I also try to include the crystal attributes for each gemstone. The information that I have for each stone is taken loosely and in part from my personal reference books. If you would like to learn more information about gemstones/crystals, the books that I reference are the following: Gemstones A to Z by Diane Stein and The Crystal Bible by Judy Hall.

Red coral effects the belly area, as it promotes conception and pregnancy.  It also heals female parts of that area also - fallopian tubes, ovaries.  Additionally, it helps the baby in the womb, as it aids a new baby's entrance into incarnation.
