How To Master Your Dragon...And Wear Some Regal Jewels



Recently, I received an im from a customer saying that he'd been searching a long time for a pendant with a dragon's talon holding a gem.  He wondered whether I might consider making such a thing--something that a man or a woman could wear.  Now, I don't do custom work because it's just too difficult to match someone else's vision--but it was a good idea, right?  TaaDaaaaa!  Here's the latest from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--The Dragon Master Pendant, a gold dragon's talon clutching a faceted gemstone in you choice of Sapphire, Ruby, or Emerald.  It's unisex and resizable to fit male or female avatars, and I've included a large and small from which to start your resizing. A perfect addition to your Gor or Medieval jewel collection!  I like it....I'm thinking a silver version may in order.  And...these lovely pendants are in the 60L Weekend Sale this weekend!  Hurry on over to ELEMENTAL JEWELRY:

Also, for those of you interested in the beautiful, elegant jewels--but not so much the Gor or Medieval element--I've also made a more classic version.  The ELEMENTAL Glistening Gem Pendant and Earrings, also gold with your choice of Ruby, Emerald, or Sapphire stones.  The pendant and earrings are sold separately.  (Hint--the Glistening Gem earrings look fantastic with the Dragon Master pendants!)

That Old Black Magic Has Me Under It's Spell


I was watching a show the other night and one of the characters, a witch, was wearing a necklace that caught my eye.  I've made a couple of similar necklaces for SL--The Witch's Jewel I and II.  Both include an engraved silver pendant strung on a black velvet cord with silver specks.  The stones are simple round glowing orbs with a touch of animation, and of course they are texture changing.  Witch's Jewel I is Blue Opal, Tiger Eye, Pink Topaz, or White Moonstone (pictured below in Blue Opal).  Witch's Jewel II is White Opal (above), Dark Amber, Green Peridot, or Amethyst.  The necklaces are resizable so you can make adjustments for your own avatar.

ELEMENTAL JEWELRY inworld:  http://slurl.com/secondlife/Belle%20Island/231/65/24

Both necklaces are in the 60L Weekend sale this weekend.


I'm also wearing:
Dress:  Snowpaw's Caligrafit gown--plum.
Hair:  (Top photo)--Analog Dog Embrace; (Bottom photo)--Truth Bronte.
Skin:  Essences Sarah skin for The Fashion Garrett 8th edition.  I love this skin--I'm sure you've noticed.

I'm using the Herbalist's Workbench from METAPHYSICAL MERCANTILE--located right next door to the ELEMENTAL mainshop on Belle Island.  Pretty cool--and on sale this weekend for L$100!

Jewels Fit For A Queen--The Renaissance Hunt


The Renaissance Hunt will run from December 1 to December 31.  I was very excited when I heard about this hunt, applied immediately, and went to work looking for period designs.  Well, people liked to wear their wealth, so you will find photos of some pretty BIG jewelry!  And then, there is always the challenge of making something unisex if possible.  But it turned out not to be such a challenge this time..the fellas wore the same big jewelry as the ladies.  So, I've created a gold Renaissance Jeweled Collar with purple charoite and green garnet stones.  The collar is resizable and can be adjusted to fit a male or female avatar.

Hair:  Analog Dog--Fleur in brunette--another great deal from the AD black Friday weekend sale.
Skin:  Essences--Sarah 8th Ed. for the Fashion Garrett.  This is a fantastic skin that I wear often.
Dress:  Kouse's Sanctum--Antoinette in emerald.  If you are ever looking for a fantasy or period gown, or just something pretty, you really do need to check out Kouse's.
