birthday commission

For my lovely stepfather to give to my mother next week.

Apologies to those who've already seen these, but I love the glass in them so much I wanted to show them off. Stunning ripply dichro cabs by the brilliant Julie HB

Love that earring design. The glass looks lit from within - how do they do that!

Thanks Lesley. I was never a huge fan of dichro - it was always too blingy for me, but since having some of Julie's pieces, and also some of Steve Thornhill's (Kay's hubby), I'm a bit of a convert.

They're lovely. Do you have any single brothers by any chance?

They are stunning George. I wish my mum appreciated jewellery, it would be such a waste of effort to make her something so beautiful!

They are lovely Mizg. Like you I wasn't a fan of dichroic until I started having a go myself.

Simply beautiful!

Gorgeous.

Stunning colour and beautifully set.

OMG, stunning, beautiful, oooooohhhhhhhhhhh.

They look like captured Ice from the Antarctic, that beautiful blue reminds me of the Ice lakes in Iceland, did anyone see that documentary?

What's the name of that particular colour or colours or is it a secret?
