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.

Orthoceras Fossil & Sterling Silver Pendant

Click Image to Enlarge

Orthoceras fossil set in sterling silver makes a very "cool" pendant. If you like fossils, as I do, wearing an extinct nautiloid cephalopod, such as the orthoceras, will definitely be a one-of-a-kind experience for the wearer.

I loved designing this fossil pendant and seeing it come to life, as I added each piece of sterling silver to complete this handmade fossil pendant. This handcrafted, sterling silver, fossil pendant is 3" in length, including the bail and 1 3/4" at the widest point. This is not a small fossil, but you will love wearing it, as much as I loved making it.

The hand forged sterling silver bail is large enough to fit most clasps. Wear this orthoceras fossil pendant on your favorite necklace, or purchase the optional black leather necklace with sterling silver clasp. You can choose either option when you add this hand forged pendant into your shopping cart.

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