Rickie Voges Designs

 PLEASE SCROLL DOWN THE PAGE TO SEE MY GALLERIES OF AVAILABLE WORK IN THE VARIOUS GALLERY ALBUMS--Charm Bracelets, Single Strand Bracelets,  Bangle Bracelets, and  the Necklaces & Pendants Galleries.   

I'm back at the workbench, and it feels really good to be playing with my beautiful treasures again!.  Please scroll down the page to see all the newest designs--in four categories--charm bracelets, single strand bracelets, bangles, and necklaces and earrings. See something you're interested in?  Email me at rspv@aol.com and I'll send you a paypal invoice!

My new galleries at Jewelry Artists seems to be online now...so please drop by to see how it's set up--I'll be adding new work as it's completed, but I'm also adding galleries by category of previous work--necklaces, pendants, bangles, charm bracelets, floral bracelets, ocean themed bracelets...etc--you get the idea.  That way you can access designs that you are particularly interested in.  I do custom orders and you can get an idea of the possibilities from there.  Everything is one of a kind, but similar designs can be put together at your request.   I love working with you on your perfect piece of jewelry using quality materials and construction.   http://www.jewelryartists.org/RickieVogesDesign

It's all about the beach again this week!!! Two new designs similar to some I've done in the past, but with a twist.

SOLD, thank you!  $103.00 Fabulous raku lampwork by Dawn Scannell makes the perfect inspiration for a design with artisan forged sterling silver wraps that have been heavily oxidized. I've added just a touch of extra color with pink amethyst, smokey quartz and oro verde cz briolettes.  Dramatic and dark just like my favorite waves crashing against the rocks at Big Sur along the California coast. 

***********************************************

ON HOLD for PW  $106.00  Remembering Rio  Playful lampwork beads by Judy Carlson really make this a showpiece, that is sure to put a smile on your face...reminds me of Rio and makes me smile. Sterling silver and a sprinkling of tiny turquoise beads with beautiful Jujeebeads from Judy 

****************************************   

Here's something I've never tried before---a ring...what do you think???

$94.00 Sunflowers en Provence  This hammered vermeil ring is embellished with step cut  champaign citrine briolettes and tiny vessonite briolettes that remind me of flowers and leaves. Size 7

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you will enjoy looking around my site at some of my currently available designs, as well as the gallery of my past work.   Please check out my galleries at BeadArtists.org-- http://www.beadartists.org/Gallery.asp?GalleryID=1042 for more detailed information about my designs and additional pictures.  Drop me an email at rspv@aol.com if I can answer any questions and let me know how I can be of help.  Typically new designs are posted weekly to the site, so stop by often to see what's new!  I do custom orders, and workshops at my studio or yours in the Southern California area.

Everything here is one-of-a-kind.  Occasionally I make something similar, but never an exact copy of my designs.  I always use quality materials--artisan lampwork, sterling silver, 23kt vermeil, goldfilled,  gemstones, freshwater pearls, swarovski crystals etc.  If you find something you like, let me know and I can send you an invoice through paypal or arrange for a payment by a U.S. postal money order.  I ship all over the world.   All jewelry can be sized for no additional charge to you, for that perfect custom fit.

Have a wonderful day, and please come back soon!

Just a little of my jewelry philosophy...and some wonderful links to please the eye---My current love is working with artisan designed lampwork beads, because they are individual, intricate and ever evolving.  When you design a piece of jewelry with lampwork it is an original, one of a kind labor of love.   Working in this media is a wonderful outlet for my creativity and there is so much to learn that I will be busy for a good while!

A special thanks goes to the wonderful lampwork artisans who inspire my mind and capture my fancy.  Also special thanks to Kendra and her family for sharing their bountious knowledge of jewelry making.  Thanks to my mother for her love of beauty and encouragement each and every day.  And last but not least thank you to my precious family for supporting, encouraging and loving me through every new whim, flight of fancy, project and obsession along the way!

 What could be more delightful than "playing" with wonderful lampwork artists beads all day and putting them into beautiful things towear and enjoy!  Please, feel free to email me with any inquiries rspv@aol.com

 Thank you for stopping by--I'd love to hear from you!   

Some of the lampwork artists beads I use in my jewelry designs include: Jena Fulcher,Melanie Egan, Julie Wong, Dawn White, Gayle Hood, Holly Kempson, Catherine Howard, Donna Mehnert, Andrea Venschott, Suzanne Booth, Corina Tettinger, Sherry Bellamy, Carolyn Driver, Lily Dickson, Alicia Abla, Jennifer Gurganus, Kimberly Lynn, Donna Felkner, Kaye Husko, Robyn Knapp, Gina Beardsley, Manuela Wutschke, Melanie Moertel, Donna Millard,and more....deliciously divine lampwork to inspire my creative muse!
