Shades of roses
1/23/2014
Some time ago my grandma gave me few stones she found in her drawer- this coral was one of them. I'll finally be able to give it back to her in a wearable form ;)
Roses on the little "cap" were formed by hand of fine silver by Drakonaria's instructions. It was oxidized and polished.
Moonlight Dance
1/03/2014
Set of earrings and necklace made of silver and moonstones, inspired by dreamy and a bit magical atmosphere of warm summer nights. It was a Christmas gift for my sister, who's creativity, passionate personality and determination in following dreams I deeply admire. It's hard to express how much I love you, you beautiful, caring, inspiring being, the best sister anyone could dream of :)
The last colours of Autumn
11/29/2013
This piece was inspired by the end of autumn season. In October and November, when everything seems to become more dull, the contrast of the last bright yellow leaves and the dark, almost black tree-trunks is very refreshing. It's like the last touch of bright colours before winter.
This pendant was made by hand of silver and two yellow cubic zirconias. It is oxidized and partially polished.
Moonlight whispers

Imagine one of those cold nights, when the sky is clear and you can perfectly see the moon and all the major star constellations. The wind is blowing and it moves the branches quite intensively. The leaves are rustling, some of them come off and fly with the wind. Maybe you are in the forest, or perhaps you just sat under a lonely tree to watch this spectacle of leaves dancing in the moonlight...
I tried to reflect the beauty of those sceneries and the feeling of solitude and freedom in this openwork pendant. Its crescent-shape base is adorned with branches, leaves and two cubic zirconias. It was totally hand formed out of fine and sterling silver, oxidized and partially polished.
Something new
10/14/2013
It's been a long time since I last wrote here- I was too busy with my studies and personal life to find a moment for this blog :) I wasn't completely inactive with jewellery-making though- I made some silicone molds for future designs, finally put all of my tools in order, read some advices on photography, got many new inspirations, and bought a lot of beautiful stones- olivines, citrines, garnets, sapphires, moonstones, and last but not least- this wonderful, Finnish spectrolite:
I love its intensive colour and labradorescence so much that I really feel I must use it for something special.
Also, I'm changing layout here- I just think it's time for autumn-cleaning ;) I ordered Melonarium logo and watermark from a very talented friend of mine and really hope to make things look more professional some time soon.
And the last news from my little workshop- yesterday I finished another cat pendant, made specially for my friend. It's hand formed of fine and sterling silver, lightly oxidized and polished. Hope she'll like it!
