jade and Swarovski soft bangle

Like pearls, jades are cool accessories. You may use either in formal to casual occasions. Those who believe in the healing power of jade wear them each day. It is also believed that jade brings prosperity and good health to the wearer.


Ph680.00 + shipping fee if needed (the gift box is free)

I used barrel shaped real jade beads, white Swarovski crystals, 10K gold balls, 10K gold tubes, 7mm thick 10K gold wire, and a short strip of 5mm thick 10K gold wire to attach the 10K gold lock to the 7mm gold wire bangle support. 

The soft bangle is made of real 10K gold from the wires to the gold tubes and gold balls. 

You will know if a piece of jade is real if it is cool to the touch. The temperature of the surface it touches may be transferred to the jade but when it is released the jade will once again adopt the temperature of its environment (or it is once again cool to the touch). 



You may use the soft bangle at work, while out with your family or friends, or anywhere you would like to wear it. It is not like other flashy jewelry that can be used only in certain occasions. And it can go with any form of clothing whether you use it with rugged, casual, or formal wear. 

I do meetups in Makati’s commercial center at Greenbelt1-5, Glorietta, MRT Ayala, and in DasmariƱas City (bayan), Cavite. You may also text for orders and inquiries at 09196510612 or email me at cecileqpastrana@gmail.com

simple designs

I am still trying to create my own simple designs, in my wire jewelry projects like the design of the bracelets. Why bracelets? I like making them, the earrings and necklaces come next lang.

This is a jade infinity charm, I knotted through the infinity openings the red synthethic leather strings. The green jade promotes good health, symbolizes and attracts wealth, and the red color of the synthetic leather connotes strength, power.

Simple and yet arresting to look at. It exudes strong energy and attracts good chi!  

And this is my first 10K gold charm bracelet, V* from the actng. dept. bought it.
  
I used class A emerald green glass beads, nickel accessories, and sturdy elastic strings with this bracelet. Emerald green is the color of money for 2013. Some fung shui masters promote wearing this color to attract wealth.

I like it when sunlight strikes the beads, the beads reflect the sun's light like a prism. The other bracelets with white beads reflects the sun's light in a rainbow of colors! You should see it. :)

green and loving it!

I've been trying to make jewelries for about 4 years now. It began as a hobby to fill in my boring weekends especially when everybody is having an afternoon nap and its just too hot for me to doze off.

Here are some of the things I made at the start of this year. I am trying to refine my wireworks. Actually I'm not even sure what to call the things I did. If they're wire jewelries or what. Just that I love doing these.

This is a jade bracelet. I used a jade with a heart shape and a lotus design for its main piece.

A necklace made of jade chips and its jade pendant is shaped like a gourd (believed to bring prosperity to the owner).

This bracelet is made of emerald green colored crystal beads. For 2013 the lucky color is emerald green which symbolizes wealth, abundance, and good health.
