A Whole New Set of Collections

Ring in the New Year and with it a whole new reflection of jewelry designs. As you can tell, we’ve spent some time the past year re-designing and developing our blog, website and our line of custom jewelry. What we are did, is truly reflect what our jewelry does, make a statement with a cutting-edge flair all our own. We’ve never been one to ‘color within the lines, more like color outside the box’! In looking over our jewelry, it has evolved into different Collections all with their own style and fashion, reflecting the personalities of our clients; we’ve just taken it a step up this year. Here’s what’s new at Timeless Designs…..

Every Collection will have a variety of pieces, from necklaces, sets, bracelets, pendants and even earrings; no more looking through jewelry categories. Not only will we offer Collections, but there we’ll be offering some raw materials for those who want to make their own jewelry and also a small line of different collars, chains, ribbons, and cords to pick from if you wanted something else to go with any pendants.


Southwest Flair; this collection will house our designs that have a Southwest Flair, most designs cultivated with Turquoise, Coral, Magnesite, Howlite, and many different metals, just to name a few. The styles will be anything from traditional Southwest to a mix of ‘Old West Meets Modern West’.

Mystic Artisan; where mystery clashes with high-end elegance in chic, edgy, classy, and even flirty designs that reflect that personality all ones own; many design will be refined using Agates, Jaspers, Onyx, Pearls, Crystals, Dichroics, and many more.

Wiry Legends, pretty much says it all as this collection will be the home to anything that has been created using mainly wire such as links, twists, swirls, and cones but will also include chain and other metal mainstream components too.

Rock Yard is a new one to our studio; this will be the place to find fossils, minerals, and chunky raw rock pieces, chose from single pendants to funky, chunky and hip brews made to order. You just never know what you might find hiding in this collection.

Supply Closet will be the place for those of you who do your own jewelry designs to find raw materials and create your own pieces. Eventually, Supply Closet will also be the place to find extra chains, collars, cords, and ribbons for purchase to mix and match with any pendants.

So, get going and check out our newly re-designed website, see what’s available for purchase or browse around to get acquainted with Timeless Designs.

Pretty In Pinks Or Purples

Spring always brings out the bright colors, especially those in the Pink and Purple color combinations. These two new designs dive into those two colors each a little differently.

What’s not to like about this Brazilian Ocos Agate (pictured to the right) with crystal formation resembling those summertime beaches, matching it up with Amethyst crystals and pinky/purple freshwater peals.

Brilliant and solid with a center of crystallized formations a raw Brazilian Agate slice (pictured to the left) as a single pendant to any summer/spring time outfit; matched with free spirit silver dangle earrings.

Sodalite Salt Stone

Named in 1811 for its high sodium content, Sodalite is a feldspathoid mineral, a sodium aluminium silicate chloride. It usually forms massive aggregates or disseminated grains. Crystals are relatively rare, and are dodecahedral or octahedral. Sodalite principally occurs in silica-poor igneous rocks such as nepheline syenites and their associated pegmatities. The name Sodalite is derived from two Greek words soda (salt) and lithos (stone) because it is a stone that contains a lot of salt. Since antiquity sodalite has been known as the stone of artists, singers, painters, and sculptures because it is believed to promote inspiration and creativity while also providing protection. It was not used in the Middle Ages but has been rediscovered in modern times and is now become a more popular gem and healing stone.

The stone itself has inclusions of calcium, salt, and manganese in deep dark blue with white matrix or pockets. Sodalite is a said to be an excellent stone for reducing high blood pressure and when designed in necklaces where the beads or pendant hang down close to the heart, will increase its hypotensive properties. It promotes spiritual harmony, wisdom, logic, calmness for hot-tempered people, healing, stress reduction, companionship, and self-esteem. Sodalite is also most effective on the forehead chakra and especially recommended for the Star Sign of Sagittarius. In order for one to benefit from the stone’s energy, it must be worn or carried around as a touchstone over a long period of time.

Best Year in Wired

Wired designs are very fun, they give me the ability to really create and highlight the stones I’m working with. Designs are accented with either links, wire wrapping, or pendants that have been wired with different bail techniques. So, after deliberating long and hard on this one, here’s this year’s best in wired designs from our collection.

Our Best Year in Turquoise

Working with Turquoise is one of my favorite stones, the verisitly it has and the many different looks that can be designed; casual, dressy, and classy; Turquoise sets a trend no matter how you look at it and will always be a staple in any collection. Since I do a lot of designs in Turquoise, this was a hard collection to narrow down, they are all so beautiful!

Some of the Years Best In Fossils

With the Holidays near, we will be spending time with friends and family, getting re-energized, re-focused and re-generated for next year! But until then as always, we’ll recap some of our favorites from the past year’s collection….though I’d like to say that everything is a favorite, some are more than others!

I got the opportunity to challenge myself more in the area of wire working; these fossils and agates are some of my favorites…..

As we pause for the Holidays and New Year, we will begin creating new unique custom natural stone designs after the first of the year; so check back often here at the blog or on the website.

Classy Sunstone Designs

Sunstone is a very classy, timeless stone; the perfect fleck striations crystals are what gives it that perfect look. These two designs use Sunstone in different ways; the first is as a highlight along with freshwater pearls, brown wire links and Swarovski crystals. The second is a little more causal, simple and very long; using Sunstone nuggets, Carnelian and glass Pearl beads among copper.

Available for purchase with other custom designs on the website.

Citrine Amethyst Agate

Historically, the name citrine is derived from the Latin word citrus, meaning “lemon”. Until the Middle Ages this name was used to designate a wide range of yellow stones. Citrine has been highly regarded as gemstone and healing stone for almost six thousand years. The soldiers in Caesar’s legions wore citrine on their chest because the stone was believed to have life-saving properties in battle. As befits its color, it is recognized as the stone of light, sun, and life.

Citrine is yellow to brownish quartz and resembles yellow topaz. It is colored by hydrous iron oxide, and is found in the same hexagonal crystals as the other varieties of crystalline quartz. Natural citrine is much less common than amethyst or smoky quartz, both of which can be heat treated to turn their color into that of citrine. Most citrine that is available is in face heat-treated amethyst, although heat-treated smoky quartz comes from some locations.

Citrine occurs principally in localities that produce amethyst, and it is sometimes found as a zone of citrine in amethyst, when it is known as ametrine. Gem-quality citrine is found on the Isle of Arran, Scotland, the Ural Mountains of Russia, India, France, Brazil, Spain, and North Carolina.

Citrine is believed to have healing and traditional properties of Intuition, comfort, protection, creativity, physical energy, wealth, mental awakening. The purer and more intense the color, the greater the stone’s healing properties. It is linked to the star sun of Gemini and Virgo.

In this new design, I’ve mixed both Citrine and Amethyst together, highlighted by a smoky purple Brazilian Agate slice.
