Navy blue is an interesting color, it's something that I feel I must have when I see it. But to make jewellery with it is quite complicated because it doesn't seem to go with any other color. This brooch is the first piece of jewelry I made with navy blue. Finished the necklace and earrings just recently to match.
Have you used navy blue color?

A VINTAGE TREASURE

- Lately I have been fascinated with Indonesian batik and tenun cloth . So with that spirit, I made this brooch using big druzy mixed with swarovski to add more glamour and 'bling-bling'. Using gun metal wire indeed gave an 'old' and vintage look and I think it definitely a prefect brooch to be worn with batik or tenun cloth.
This brooch is really a vintage treasure....

- Lately I have a thing about blue rhinestones. I'm sure it will change some day, but right now I'm so fond of the wide range of blues. Another thing that I absolutely like, is opal color so when I purchased Blue Opal rhinestones I almost went out of my mind for joy :)
I thought that Blue Opal is something like White Opal Air Blue, but when these rhinestones are side by side, they seem so different. Blue Opal seems much warmer, with yellow glow. So therefore I couldn't use White Opal Air Blue beads and had to find glass beads instead. This time I made a lot of rondelles. Since I havent found swarovski rondells in copper color I ordered little settings from Germany and used wire to assemble them. Lots of glass pearls and different copper plated findings :)

- Description
This is my attempt to use gold color metal findings (instead the copper color I'm more used to). It came out very bright in color, so it was difficult to photograph. Very fancy, suitable for theatre maybe
Idea to use seedbeads that way came from vintage costume jewelry brand Miriam Haskell. My first try to use box clasp with prongs. I got them by chance, one shop had these for a moment and with no plan to reorder, and I bought all they had! I should order matching perforated discs for these (I managed to use here stamped filigree plate but perforated discs are better - easier to attach).

This wire design shows the beauty of wire and the crystal, special the wire, I didn't made the curve, just according the original curve I made the bending on wire by different direction. then wrapping the connection with crystal pendant, the pin hide under the brooch. whole piece finished without soldering, all by three basic pliers.
I will teach this project for workshop in Italy 2010, and will proposal this class for CREAT YOUR STYLE event 2011.
Morion Star Brooch

- Description
Morion is the color that I searched for a long time on eBay. I had to see it with my own eyes because from the photos it looked sometimes grey and sometimes blue. I was thrilled I got these 8x3mm navettes but I was a bit worried of the fact that my settings were for navettes in size 8x4mm, but I managed to fit them anyway.
So this is the brooch with morion navettes and crystal rhinestone core. I made the brooch motif with a single piece of wire. The brooch is a bit domed and a bit flexible (I didn't have a suitable stamped filigree plate that I usually put behind the motif).
I love the color, it's the color of the midnight sky :)
