Take Heart

 

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, I've had hearts and romantic themes on my mind lately.  Here's a quick peek at some of the new items listed in The French Circus this evening.

 

 

Have a love-ly weekend, mes amis!  <3 Robyn

 

Fit for a Queen

 

How is everyone holding up in this record-breaking heat?  To combat the scorching temperatures, I've made some cool new jewels this week, fit for a queen! 

 

 

This vintage crown is simple yet stunning, adorned with lots of rhinestones, rubies and chunky baroque pearls.

 

 

I think this old threaded crown and Maltese cross patch makes a fun and regal bracelet!

 

 

And of course we needed some pearly crown and shell cameo earrings in the mix...

 

 

This royal necklace features the most amazing hand-painted portrait of a woman whom I've decided looks like Queen Elizabeth!  It is a really special piece, possibly painted on ivory and encased in silver and bezeled glass.

 

 

Here are some more crown earrings suspended from exotic enamel findings with mother of pearl rosary beads and chains.

 

 

This Eiffel Tower double-wrap necklace is positively luxe with its variety of gemstones and textured chain.

 

 

I will be listing these pieces in my Etsy shoppe on Monday.  Please feel free to contact me before then if you have questions about anything!  And please stay tuned next time when I will be offering my third tutorial on wire wrapping and making a pair of earrings.  Until then, stay cool, mes amis royale!  :) Robyn

 

A Pair of Crosses

I have been collecting some interesting crosses over the past year and decided to use a few in my new necklace designs this week.

 

I also worked on some other pairs... earrings that is!  ;)

 

 

This bronze Jerusalem cross really shows off against the simple chain treatment in front, and is balanced by a surprise of chunky gemstones in back.

 

 

 

   

 

Here some vintage Eiffel Tower charms pair nicely with bronze Edwardian castings for a simple earring from my t r e n d collection.



 

 

Sorry, folks... these fleur de lis goodies got snatched right up!  ;)

 

 

 

I love the sparkle of this large rhinestone cross pendant, served up with mixed metals and more gemstones.

 

 

Bronze hoops carry vintage heart charms and rose quartz brios in this fun-loving design.

 

 

Thank you for stopping by!  Have a great week!  :)
