Love - SOLD

Love floats on a 20" 14k gold plated cable chain. This brass charm tells it like it is. Perfect for your Valentine, BFF or even your family members, just to tell them that you do love them. I could embellish more, but i think I should leave that to you, afterall love is about all those wonderful memories you've created together.

The brass charm is weighted, so it will actually look like it's written on a straight line (when worn) as opposed to most charms dangling off the loop of 'L'.

Grandma's Wisdom

Close-up

How to amuse people around you

Think you need to show your wisdom beyond your years with an accessory? I'm sure this will do the job plenty. Ol' grandma telling stories and giving useful advice. Sitting you down and sharing cookies & milk. Always a shoulder to cry on. The chain measures 19", while the entire necklace has a drop of a necklace that is 24" long.

Retail Price: SGD26

*I've got my own (seeing how cute this is, how can i resist) and worn it for for at least 4 days. I've gotten a hit rate of 80% comments from friends & family whom i've met. They all think it's an absolute laugh. My friend's mom suggested for me to give it to my mom for Mother's Day (an apt present perhaps?), my cousins have offered it to their dad, my grandma has shook her head in disagreement. This is definitely one necklace everyone will notice.

Happy Lunar New Year!!

May the year of the Ox bring us stability, prosperity, good health and abundance. Especially in these times, i think stability & good health will really bring us through. Of course prosperity & abundance is an added bonus. :)

Have a Happy Lunar New Year! Eat more New Year goodies! Don't forget the pineapple tarts and most importantly lots of water! Falling sick after CNY is not the best feeling of all.

I will be launching a super cool necklace after the 1st day (apparently there's a superstition for businesses to be operating on the 1st day of CNY), so some time this week you'll get to see the necklace. I think it's absolutely cool & after wearing mine out yesterday and getting lots of comments about how cute & funny it is, i'm pretty sure you girls will think the same too! And there'll be a necklace for lovers who are looking a present for their gf's, Valentine's Day is coming soon afterall!

Love,
Dawne

Keep your eyes peeled

This is not a post for a new item, or another series, but for something worth a lot more that I feel all of us should take some time to read, feel and think of what our inactions will also mean. Spreading the word, sharing what's happening around us will make sure that companies like these will not be able to get away with doing something like that.

It disgusts me to know that the basic decency of informing the workers of what is going to happen to them, nor arrangements for A meal was not made. Imagine the amount of money the workers hands have made for them, without them being paid minimal sums of money for them to enjoy the fat margins to buy them that cushy Merc S class or that 7 series that they get to go to work in. The least that they could do for the workers as a human being watching out for a fellow human wasn't even there. So they were all mere integers in this whole big game.

Linearis - All Sold

Yes, finally the collection that i've been tempting you with is up. The Linearis collection comprises of 10 simple bracelets in gold and silver tones. Classic lines for daily wear and casual affairs. Each bracelet has its own defining look beyond the chosen complementing semi-precious stone. Each bracelet is exclusive, so you will not bump into someone on the street wearing the same bracelet as you, minute the chances may be before we've now reduced it to zero.

Silveria - Sold

Silver quartz puff squares with lock & key toggle closure. Silver quartz does not fall within the family of traditionally used crystals for healing, but quartz in general are used to amplify thought patterns and energies.

Ebony

Onyx faceted coins with fancy flower toggle closure and double linked rhodium plated chains.
A stone believed to encourage good fortune, enhance self control (something to keep us in check during CNY perhaps?) and stimulate decisiveness (No, that was the last pineapple tart. Nooooo..).

Ruby

A single length chain meant for double-winding, ruby quartz are the chosen starlets for this bracelet. Again ruby quartz does not fall within the family of traditionally used crystals for healing, but quartz in general are used to amplify thought patterns and energies. Goes really well with the fair chinese skin tone, an option for CNY, if you're not into the whole red scene. I think subtle is good. ;p

Apatite

Oh my apatite gorgeous babies which have made it's rounds in several Smitten bracelets. Beyond it's gorgeous luxx look that is adds to any jewelry, it also helps as a bridge between consciousness and matter. Useful in healing, communication and energy balancing. Dazzle all your female cousins with this luxx bracelet while you drink up all the packet chrysanthemum tea while waiting for the pineapple tarts to be refilled.

Kyanos

Kyanite rectangles showing depth as its different layers refracts light in different wavelengths. Kyanite is believed to help in the creative expression of art, dance, writing, etc. It's also thought to bring to one serenity, especially when you've lost a bout of pineapple tart eating competition with cousins half your age. Accepting defeat will not be easy.

Dorian Grey

Labradorite faceted squares with the blue fire that its famous for. Helpful in connecting one's destiny with the stars. Pineapple Tart Queen perhaps.

Mamamacha

Malachite puff coins. Known as a children's talisman to ward off danger and illness. It's also used in adults to forewarn danger and bring harmony into one's life. Less pineapple tarts, less chances of cough and sore throat, good for the kid.

Angels Calling

Angelite puff rectangles. Increases telepathy, promotes compassion and understanding. Also helps you to speak the truth when it is not easy to do so. Some of us may need clairvoyance to aid us in getting the cousins to release their grip on the CNY goodies. This should help.

Pink-a-dilly

Rose quartz faceted barrel beads. Famous of course for love, but also known to teach forgiveness and tolerance. Especially forgiveness to the cousin who has stolen the last pineapple tart from under your watchful eyes.

The White Rabbit

Faceted white jade ovals matches with 14k gold plated double linked chains. White jade is purported to give the wearer focus and filtering our unwanted distraction. No more melamine problems!

Like i've mentioned before, these bracelets are exclusive, meaning i will not remake them at any cost. Once gone, despair will hit. Also with the celebration of Linearis as my first ever collection, beyond the bespoke quality, there's a few added goodies worth at least $35, that you'll receive with your Linearis bracelet. Hmm, matching earrings & bangle set anybody? When placing your order, please specify your wrist circumference and preferred bracelet length in centimeters where possible in order for me to achieve the closest fit for your wrist.

**Forgot to mention this earlier, but registered mail is inclusive for this collection, no fears of missing bracelets!

Isha - Sold

Isha features the same amazonite coins and brass maple leaf charms of Isabella, this time with added 14k gold plated chains for swinging and sashaying. Lovely with whites or yellows. Isha measures 5cm excluding 14k gold plated hooks.

Joice - SOLD

Very similar to Eloise, Joice features a different pair of polymer clay beads. Measuring 4cm like her twin sister, and featuring a little leaf filigree with a spot diamante for that subtle bling that is unique to both of them. Something to match your pastel & white combos.

Retail Price: SGD23

Isabella - SOLD

Isabella is such a sweet petite lil' thing that simply charmed my heart. Measuring in at tiny 1.2cm with equally pint sized brass maple leaf charms, they're perfect for the coming spring. The amazonite coins definitely remind me of the lovely copper sulphate blue waters in Lake Taupo in NZ, the imagery immediately reminds me of the lovely sound of the rushing water and the crisp cool air, much like what we're experiencing tonight. Now if someone could just crystallize that memory into these earrings and instantly remind me of it, that'll be just perfect.

2cm worth of 14k gold plated earwires to extend Isabella's beauty.
