The Cliff ARToberFEST is this weekend! I hope you all plan on coming out to see us. I’ve just finished putting up quite a bit of new stuff on our website…just in time for the show…so get down to Galveston this weekend for the best art show around! Check out the new stuff at our site!

A sentimental piece made by hand of pure silver. The pendant, including the bail, measures a hefty 1-3/4″ long and is suspended from a handmade silk string. The cinnamon color of the silk string is a perfect compliment to the striking color of the Sleeping Beauty turquoise cabochon. There is a small heart in the center back with the inscription “always & forever” directly above. The front of the heart is textured and patinaed and the heart has an overall matte finish, as does the bail and “S” hook. The handmade silk string feels heavenly around your neck. You may, of course, adjust the length by simply re-tying the knots.…

I fell in love with these earrings the moment Shauna showed them to me this past weekend! They are so shiny and the free-moving flowers add just the right bit of color and contrast – so perfect with the vine swirling in the background. What a wonderful pair to add to your collection! Each earring features three free-spinning flowers made by hand of copper, bronze and fine silver. The background disks with vines and leaves are also made of fine silver. All components of these sweet earrings are oxidized to highlight the relief. The disks measure about 1-1/4 inches in diameter; height of earrings (from the top of earwire to…

A handmade waxing crescent moon of .999 fine silver, patinaed to perfection so that the crescent moon is highlighted. The moon is nestled amongst coin-shaped moonstone beads, which are split into double strands. Each end is completed with faceted Raven’s Wing fresh water pearls. Sterling silver lobster clasp. Length: 19″. By Lisa. 

Twist things up a notch with this gorgeous turquoise necklace! We’ve taken eye-catching turquoise twisted beads and strung them on Irish waxed linen, along with small turquoise rondelles to create a timeless look. This necklace is 42″ long so you can easily wear it two ways: one long, swinging necklace or wrap it around your neck twice for a classic look. Finished with a sterling silver lobster clasp closure. And when you’re finished twisting things up, match it up with a pair of earrings! Bali-style sterling silver headpins loaded up with beautiful blue and sea green turquoise. Three turquoise twisted beads on each earrings, set off with little turquoise rondelles.  Length:…

This piece takes me back to the days when I would rummage through my Mom’s jewelry box and see all of the beautiful treasures inside sparkle back at me. Every little girl loves to wear her Mom’s jewelry and to pretend to be just like her! We have been enjoying glorious spring weather and the blues in this necklace reflect the lightness of springtime. Blue opal tube beads, blue and teal green topaz gems mixed with freshwater pearls, all shown off in three sets of handmade charms on a sterling silver cable chain with sterling heart lobster clasp. Length: 22″. Designed by Lisa. 

Shiny discs with a textured cross that is patinaed to perfection! The edges of the cross extend over the side of the disc, adding a nice finishing touch. These earrings weren’t started out with the intent of having them directed at any specific meaning but, instead, were an exercise in mirror finishing and including a texture to amplify the mirror finish. Looking at the image here, it appears to have a matte finish but does not. Sometimes photography is exasperating! Each earring measures just under 1″ in diameter and are feather light. Sterling silver earwires.

I wanted to share with you my latest creation. This is, by far, my favorite pendant of the season! The design for this pendant is our great Texas flag and my goal was to create a pendant that you wouldn’t find anywhere else. So many Texas jewelry pieces look the same and we really try to keep our designs fresh and different. I used texture to make the sections of the flag stand out and borrowed the Alone Star shape for the star, setting a blue topaz right in the center. Blue topaz is the State stone so that part was easy! The pendant is gently curved from top to…
