Our designer has selected some of her favourite pieces that she is happy to put on display here. This is quality Yaesique handmade jewellery, of varying styles and prices, but all are unusual and classic in their own right.
Lampwork Luxury is a mixed media necklace which features unique, swirling lampwork glass beads set within Swarovski crystal and bronze glass baguettes, leading up to carved Rosewood beads capped in copper. This pattern is repeated until the copper toggle catch closure is reached. A glorious showstopper necklace to beautify a plain outfit. Lampwork bead size: 14mm
Floating flowers, a dainty handmade necklace of great charm, featuring handmade lampwork beads made by artisan Emma Mackintosh within semi-precious Moss Agate, with Cape Amethyst and Rose Quartz detail. The bottle green and deep blue of the 'pond waters', have flowers and leaves floating within the glass beads. These colours are picked out in the necklace which is finished with a push fit pearl catch. For smart day use or for a lovely accessory to plain colours. One only.
Seashore is a semi-precious necklace featuring Carnelian 'claws' around tomato-red, handmade, Greek clay discs which are highlighted by fine silver drops. This stunning hand-crafted necklace is finished with a co-ordinating pure copper, toggle catch and is a original Yaesique design, one only.

This autumnal unisex necklace, finished with a pure copper toggle clasp, is a Yaesique design. One only.
These 15mm Mookaite rounds are all unique. Co-ordinating each large gemstone bead, meant many smaller semi-precious beads were arranged and rejected... until a balanced colour progression emerged. Celebration, a mammoth exercise was successfully achieved! The variegation of all these handsome beads is displayed in a beautiful necklace. A gold plated extension chain completes the piece, which would look good with maroon velvet or a similar luscious dark material.
A 60x25mm leaf, beautifully carved from blacklip shell, is the centre piece of this co-ordinated designer necklace. Strung between a carefully hand-picked colour graded selection of South China Jade pieces and White Lace Agate round beads, this pendant makes a stunning keepsake to be worn with pride.
