Made in China...

Silver Ring 'Spring of Flower'


Conceptual designed silver ring - 'Outstanding sense of humour'



We are so used to living in a world full of 'made in China' now, but when you think of these 3 words, what will come with them? Cheap, Duplicating, Formulating...have a look at these creations, can you relate to any of those things that inscribed in you mind?

Silver Bangle ' Life Circle'


Silver Pendant ' Pandora's Box' (lucky version)


Leslie's Silver Pendant (the Designer named it after me)

'Spring of Flower' Silver Pendant


'Lovers Bridge' Silver Necklace
Inspired by a Chinese ancient tale about a couple forced to be apart for their lifetime, only to cross this bridge for reunion once a year, the day they see each other is the Chinese Valentine's Day...

go & have a look at these oriental talents' world, you may not read the language, but you'll appreciate their art:

Meant for me




Just got this pendant from Beyond today, a few months ago it already caught my eye, hadn't made up my mind back then...kept thinking about it from time to time. Dimi said ' if you come back for it, it's actually looking for you... sounds spooky

Rings from Paddington Markets



Paddington Markets is the heaven shopping for Jewels, but hell if you are looking for anything cheap, I got these two stunningly crafted rings for a suprisingly 'reasonable' price...



Glebe Markets




I met so many amazingly talented people there, though they come & go... what attracts me the most is not just the vibrant markets , it's the artistic suburban culture embraces you from the moment you turn into the corner of Glebe Point Rd...

Meet the Silvermonk


The only way you get to know Silvermonk's work is to meet her in person, listen to her talking about her creation, & maybe someday get thc chance to watch her sitting at her bench creating something delicious...



and here's my 'neighbour' Ms Silvermonk: http://www.silvermonk.blogspot.com/

Voola Taka - Greek Magic





Red Coral Marble Stone Earings
Voola's got this wild talent that she can basically turn just about anything into something...What would you call this magical mind: a witch, an elf?







Kruvell Silver - Butterflies



It seems the only thing I walk away with from Kruvell each time is Butterfly...it's always nice to have a chat with the owner about his pround collections from probably around the world, the only thing he won't tell you is the names of his designers...
