BELLY BUTTON RING CHAINS - HISTORY CLADDAGH RINGS.
Very sexy and long strands of gems and rhodium plated chains added to the unique teardrop center stone makes this reverse design belly ring a true original. The settings and chains are rhodium plated for a finish that is guaranteed never to fade or tarnish. Unlike most of our competition, we do not plate our items in inferior silver. All our plated items are plated in rhodium which is made of platinum (more precious than gold) to insure that our customers will be able to enjoy each piece we offer forever without ever having to worry about fading, chipping, or tarnishing (common problems with silver plated items sold by others, BUT NEVER US) The 14 gauge reverse design curved barbell is 7/16" and crafted in 316L stainless steel.
How do you tell the world what you love?
My Collections Series are born of my love not just of jewelry, but of the beads themselves. It's a beads, for beads sake thing.
Out of my love came the idea to create miniature collections for others.
The beach inspired collection of Siren includes:
Assorted bits of pretty horn and glass
Raku button by MAKUstudios (signed on the back by Mak-- she does the richest, most brilliant colorations of any raku artist I've ever seen)
Three heavily textured silvered ivory beads by Paul at firedancebeads that look like bones from the sea
Labradorite-- a grey feldspar known for iridescence
Wire wrapped driftwood
Red horn ring
Serpentine, a khaki colored stone handcarved in an Oriental pattern
Polymer clay bird skull by Dee of Malodora-- love the realism!
Gold coral
Antler tip-- naturally shed
Fossilized megalodon shark tooth
Green garnet
African brass wound bead
Ceramic frame from LisaPetersArt-- Lisa does awesome shapes and textures to die for
Stoneware bead with an irregular, mottled surfacein blue, sage and brown by Jubilee. These were some of the most wonderful beads I ever bought-- and this is the last one.
Citrine rough. I loved the way the clear yellow blends with the snowy quartz.
Petosky honeycomb fossil, from Lake Michigan shores- their name means "rising sun"
Sterling Silver imame from Egypt. It's the terminus for a strand of prayer beads
Faceted bone-- fabulous color and texture, like fossilised ivory
Twilight lily bead from HumbleBeads. The pale blue of dusk covers the lily white beads that are then antiqued with a rich chocolate brown. Heather's textures are amazing.
Kyanite-- it was love at first sight for me that this collector's mineral
Satin finished borosilicate lampwork bead in earthtones by twosisters4
The Siren collection is wired to a 37 inch (94 cm) length of sterling silver flat cable chain with lengths of 20 and 18ga sterling silver wire. I created a lovely 's' clasp to close it.
It's easily worn at 24 inches (61cm), 37 inches (94cm), or anywhere in between. I added a dangle to the final link for a very finished and versatile piece.
It can even be worn as a belly chain or a very chunky bracelet!
Well. Im up here in this womb
Im looking all around
Well, Im looking out my belly button window
And I see a whole lot of frowns
And Im wondering if they dont want me around
What seems to be the fuzz out there?
Just what seems to be the hang?
cause you know if ya just dont want me this time around,
Yeah Ill be glad to go back to spirit land
And even take a longer rest,
Before Im coming down the chute again
Man, I sure remember the last time, baby
They were stlll hawkin about me then
So if you dont want me now,
Make up your mind, where or when
If you dont want me now,
Give or take, you only got two hundred days
cause I aint coming down this way too much more again
You know they got pills for ills and thrills and even spills
But I think youre just a little too late
So Im coming down into this world, daddy
Regardless of love and hate
And Im gonna sit up in your bed, mama
And just a grin right in your face
And then Im gonna eat up all your chocolates,
And say i hope Im not too late
So if theres any questions,
Make up your mind
cause you better give or take
Questions in your mind
Give it a take,
You only got two hundered days
Way up into this womb
Looking all around
Sures dark in here
And Im looking out my belly button window
And I swear I see nothing but a lot of frowns
And Im wondering if they want me around
Here's a collage I made at least ten years ago! It's not a very good reproduction, just took a shot standing above it...as soon as I can I'll be taking a proper photo of it.The mouth's Kylie Minougue's off the cover of Time Out and what you can't see from the photo is that inside her mouth is a hologram of planet earth (just about the height of Jimi's belly button).
