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.

Apache Rhyolite Gemstone & Sterling Silver Ring

Click Image to Enlarge

This rectangle-ish shaped, apache rhyolite gemstone is set on a hand forged, sterling silver band. The colors of this particular apache rhyolite gemstone are very "sedona sunset", as the reds and mauves are very saturated and so well blended. This is the last of my handpicked apache rhyolite gemstones, but I hope to come across more on my next buying trip this summer.

This handmade apache rhyolite gemstone ring has a gemstone setting that is 1 1/8" in length and 3/4 at its widest point. This handcrafted sterling silver ring is size 8, and the band width is 5/16".

Each piece of my handcrafted metal jewelry designs is stamped with my logo and my signature initials "DHR".
