These paper necklaces  come in various loveable designs and all of them will surely make the ones wearing it stand out the crowd.  If you want to have a unique look, let the paper jewelries do the job.

from the Bound Earth Collection

Artist Andrea Williams grew up near the coast of Maine where she got inspired by the ocean and coastal nature. Her jewelry are made from beachstones and every single piece is spectacular. In this post, I have presented only the  items from her Starry Night collection.



Although I like all Andrea’s pieces, these are my favorites! But every piece is unique and impressing and if you are interested you cand see more jewelry at Bound Earth Presentation Site. There are also theKebyar, Sa, Kyuma, and Mani padme collections. All the jewelry lines have with Tibetan inspired names.

Of her work, Andrea Williams states, “My jewelry is an expression of the wonder I sense in the overlooked intricacies in nature. When we see stones in infinite numbers underfoot at the beach, we cannot help but to miss the unique perfection in each.”

You’ve heard of fool’s gold until now. Marcasite is the white form of fools gold and it was especially fashionable in Victorian times. Jewelers usually describe marcasite as a bronze color, its designs usually resembling an “Art Deco” period. You’ll generally see marcasite jewelry shining with a vintage estate look.

Marcasite is a mineral formed from iron sulfate. It is occasionally called white pyrite, but is not pyrite. To further confuse matters, most gems called marcasite, are in reality pyrite. True marcasite disintegrates quickly and does not keep well in gem form.
