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.

Labradorite & Sterling Silver Pendant

Click Image to Enlarge

This labradorite gemstone has such beautiful blue and green flashes, it is hard to look away. I didn't want to take away from this beautiful labradorite gemstone, so I set the gemstone in an open prong setting. I also left the back of the pendant open so that light could shine through and the wearer could see every aspect of this awesome labradorite gemstone.

This handcrafted, labradorite and sterling silver pendant is 2" in length, including the bail, and 7/8" at its widest point. The sterling silver bail is large enough to fit most clasps. Wear this handmade labradorite pendant on your favorite necklace, or purchase the optional black leather necklace with sterling silver clasp. You can make your selection when you add this hand forged labradorite pendant into your shopping cart.

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