This is the little bracelet I received from Pinar Sondal, after the Art Swap for Handicrafts organised last month on Swap Art. This is called “Gold coated Silver Lady In Red Heart Bracelet” and is hand crafted with pure and sterling silver. If you like it you can also buy it from her Etsy Shop.
Because it was a swap, she received my handmade journal :) .
Pinar Sondal, or Toosis, is a jewelry designer from Turkey. You can find her gorgeous work on her official website toosis.com, at Boticca, Etsy, or you can read her blog.
In her designs Sondal uses fresh-water pearls, semi-precious faceted stones such as quarts, amethyst, peridot, jade, aquamarine, citrine, and onyx combining them with sterling silver and findings that she designs with several techniques. See below a nice presentation of Toosis for Boticca:




Now I know where to look for Christmas presents!
