Interruption

Hey babes,

As my main computer has crashed, the upload of K + 79 will have to be interrupted. I will try to get it up & running as soon as i can. Coz not only are you anticipating my pictures, i want my computer back too! For those of you who cannot wait, you can always pop by Orchard Central this weekend. I'll be having a stall at this new mall in town. For those of you who are not so familiar, it's directly opposite Centrepoint + Orchard Point, or for those in the know, KPO. :)

Here are the details:
Venue: Orchard Central, Level 1
Date: 30 & 31 Jan, Sat & Sun
Time: 12 - 8pm

Hope to see you there!

XOXO

K + 79:3 - Phoenicopterus - Sold

As we all know, flamingoes are famed for resting on one foot, some interesting reasons have been posited, but til now it's still not entirely clear. The most interesting one of which says that they are able to rest half their body, while the other half is awake. But of course, it remains but just a theory. Maybe wearing this necklace, will help u shut half a brain when you need to chillax from the daily grind. And if anybody says you're not as sharp, you can always say "yeah but i'm using half a brain." 14k gold plated flamingo measures 5cm, while black electroplated chain measures 22", finished off with a 14k gold plated lobster clasp.

K + 79:2 - Fool's Gold - Sold

2nd necklace of the K + 79 collection. Pyrite is also commonly known as fool's gold. Back in the gold mining days, pyrite with its silverish tone & gold flecks or brassy tone (depending on which spectrum of the gemstone you were getting), was easily mistaken for gold, therefore it's name. I've wirewrapped the pyrite gumdrop with 14k gold headpin, and strung it on a black electroplated chain. Chain measures 25", while pyrite pendant measures a tiny 5mm across, and finished with 14k gold plated spring clasp. See the complete necklace & close-up on 14k lobster clasp.

K + 79:1 - Half & Half - Sold

First of the Black & Gold collection, as the name of the collection states, it's all about black & gold, in colour and its various interpretations. It's definitely something edgier, funkier and more close to my heart than the other collections that i've come up with, coz it's just the way i dress. Also in the little touches where, i've tweaked it for that really personal feel, so I hope you like it!

A black cinnabar bead & 3 textured 14k gold plated rings hold fort in this design. Gold chains drape close against your chest, while the black chains go round your neck in Half & Half. To look at the close up of the cinnabar beads, go here, or at the other touch of personality, here.

Half & Half measures 34" and is completed with 14k gold plated parts & black electroplated (over nickel) parts.

Violetta - Sold

Violetta is sassy & full of feminine grace. Something i'd have to say, is totally not me ever in this lifetime. Featuring lilac tone roses, with dewy nectar in similar hues. Violetta is full of things that sparkle! Diamante loops dangle a lovely concoction of moonstone rondelle, 14k gold plated teardrop as seen in The Little One & finished off with a dear iolite tone faceted czech glass bead. Violetta measures a precious 3.5cm excluding 14k earhooks.

Gold'n Magnolia - Sold

Gold'n Magnolia is a departure from the usual look that I tend towards. Nevertheless, I have still kept the air of elegance, this time round with a bit more details for your eyes. Starting from the top with a pair of diamante ear studs are a pair of magnolia tone polymer clay roses, teamed with a filigree. Other more interesting petite pretties are a wooden cube, faceted yellow jasper ovals & a faux pearl in white. Gold'n Magnolia measures 4.2cm inclusive of 14k gold plated diamante ear studs.

Greetings!

I've had a great 2009 with all your wonderful support and wish that you've had a good year as well. I am very thankful for the fact that people think my work is beautiful enough to wear, on top of the fact that it is sitting amongst other jewelry that holds sentimental value to you.

I hope 2010 brings more new works that will continue to add a bit of beauty in this world. I have a few collections planned, with the first to be launched before CNY. As well as a few collaborations with some very talented people, hopefully I manage to get that going.

May Twenty Ten bring great joy & success (in your own terms) to all of you. I hope to see Earring Addict grow together with you people!

XOXO,
Dawne
