Mermaid Cove Jewelry

I've recently reorganized my Etsy shop so that it now features a series of jewelry lines. Among these is Mermaid Cove. The pieces combine precious metals and the fruits of the sea - coral, pearls, sea bamboo and shells. I was inspired by mythical ocean creatures, their golden hair and scaly flesh, and the water they flit and flirt through.

Silver Vintage Coral Earrings
Gold Vintage Coral Earrings
 I only use vintage coral branches. Coral reefs are endangered due to climate change, human negligence and over-harvesting.

Zircon, Apatite and Silver Chandelier Earrings
Zircon and apatite gemstones mimic water droplets and sparkling sun-dappled oceans.
