I can’t believe we are already in September 🍂 Swipe for details on the September Drop and each early autumn inspired piece.
You can find all the info on each piece right here in the captions! 💛

These are listed in the same order as my previous drop preview post, so you can skip ahead to whichever piece draws your eye!

A personal favorite from this collection! Red agate and aquamarine is such an unexpected yet magical combination 🦋♥️
This piece is hand knotted using aquamarine and moonstone beads with gold plated bead caps to add warmth and to hint at those perfect cooler sunny days of September.

The charms are red agate with blue topaz inlay and aquamarine crescents and drops, all using vermeil hardware

If this piece doesn’t scream fall!!
Chunky chrysoprase beads are a gorgeous apple green color with hints of brown and copper, hand knotted with caps and red thread.
The star of this necklace is a hand carved antique carnelian tube bead!! The orange and green combo of this piece feels to me like a maple tree just beginning to turn 🍁

It hurts my heart to part with this one ❤️‍🩹 but I’m super excited to see who takes this it home!

This is earthy to its core. The beads are moonstone, turquoise, and citrine, hand knotted with caps 🤍🩵💛

The center pendant is a solid sterling silver squash blossom with turquoise inlay. The surrounding charms pull in fall colors with smoky quartz, raw emerald, and chocolate tigers eye.

The frog makes this such a personality piece 🐸🧡

Chunky carnelian beads with caps hand knotted on red thread with an antique hand carved jade double sided frog. These colors scream fall but frogs are ALL SEASON BABY

Feeling lucky? ♥️♠️♦️♣️

I’ve been working on these charms for months and am so happy to introduce them for the first time 🍀
The beads on this piece are gradient shades of green jade and mother of pearl with caps and red thread.
The charms conjure up the best of luck with a gold filled horseshoe and clover, enamel dice, mother of pearl star, red agate and black onyx card suits with white topaz inlay, and a chalcedony 4 leaf clover with white topaz inlay.

Love the playfulness of this one 🩵

SEPTEMBER DROP GOES LIVE TOMORROW AT 7PM CT 🧡📿

Super excited to drop some new charm necklaces and introduce a few newer styles I’ve never released before. All of the beads are semiprecious gemstones, which to me feel SO good and so fitting moving into the early earthy autumn months ♥️ by @ostrich.moon

Swipe to see the evolution of my jewelry making from my experimentation days to honing in on an aesthetic.

In retrospect, it’s cool to see the transformation in parallel to my personal life evolution (full time corporate job, moving back to Chi, quitting said job to make the commitment to jewelry, creative world immersion, becoming a mom, rediscovering my identity through it all)

To be continued…. 🌀 by @ostrich.moon
