Silver Parrot Designs
Twilight Forest Set
The 17.5" necklace is made with deep purple Swarovski pearls, copper beads and findings and an iridescent metal leaf pendant. The matching bracelet is 7.5" and the earrings are 2". I've included a couple of different views - one from the scanner and one from the camera - to show colors better.
Note: the earring tops are pewter with a copper-colored finish. I have tested a similar pair and did not have any problems with them even though I do have metal allergies, but if you are extremely sensitive, you might want to avoid this set or e-mail me a request to change out the earring tops to 14k gold fill.
This stunning, handmade Raku pendant is a perfect mate to handcrafted porcelain bead from Africa. Accents are provided by copper disks, Czech crystal and unakite stone beads. The matching earrings are included and hang from 14k gold fill French hooks.

Heart's Garden Set
I found this unusual lampwork heart toggle clasp on-line and just fell in love with it. To show it off, I kept the design simple and classic with Swarovski pearls and crystals and a dash of Bali vermeil. The necklace is 18" and the earrings are 1.75" and are finished with 14k gold filled French hooks.
This necklace is 18" of funky style. Polished, deep purple pebbles of genuine amethyst alternate with pale pink rounds of rose quartz and sterling silver spacers. The unique toggle clasp is also sterling silver with amethyst inlaid on the ends of the bar. Matching earrings are included.
The scanner didn't quite do justice to the color on this one. The faceted, rectangular beads are jade dyed to a delicious berry color that is much more pink than in the picture. These stones caught my eye at a recent bead show and I've mixed them with the simplest of Bali gold vermeil spacers and tiny white pearls to allow the stones to really be the stars of this show. The necklace is 16.5", the bracelet is 7" and the earrings are 1.5" and hang from 14kt gold filled leverbacks. Clasps on the necklace and bracelet are Bali gold vermeil rope toggles.
Genuine, faceted amethysts are paired with lampworked art glass beads and both are accented with pewter bead caps and toggle clasp in an antique gold finish. The necklace is 17.75" and the set also includes matching earrings and a 7" bracelet. The scan does not do this set justice - the lampwork beads are really more stunning in person where you can appreciate their unique "frosted glow" finish that makes them match equally well with pink or purple.
This delicate, 17" necklace features 14k gold filled chain wire-wrapped to beads of peridot, citrine, garnet and 3 faceted amethytst briolettes. Matching briolettes dangle from the 2.25" earrings and the 14k gold filled lobster claw clasp.
This stunning set features lampworked beads by glass artist Sandi Misenar in shades of teal, moss, forest green, copper and gold. I've added Bali vermeil spacers and garnet rondelles and wired everything to 14kt gold-filled chain. The piece is finished with a Bali vermeil clasp with a garnet set in it.
This delicate gold-filled chain has been accented with shimmering glass leaves in shades of cranberry, lilac, peach and green. A sprinkling of Czech crystals and cranberry glass seed beads have been added for sparkle. A Bali gold vermeil toggle clasp finishes the necklace. The main strand of the necklace is 17.5" long and the secondary strand hangs approximately 2" below that. Matching earrings dangle from 14k gold-filled French hooks.
These delicate glass leaves are so pretty I just had to make up another design with them. I went all out on this one with 3 strands of 14k gold filled chain decorated with the leaves and some beautiful teal freshwater pearls. The necklace strands range from 22" - 28" and the matching earrings are 2.25" and hang from 14k gold filled leverbacks. The necklace clasp is a fun, triple-strand hook-and-eye in 14k gold fill and it has a design of tiny gold leaves on it.
This is definitely my very favorite piece so far! I started with a stunning set of lampwork beads from Luna Beads in shades of blue and lavender and added Bali silver, Czech crystal, Swarovski crystal and faceted lavender "jade"* rondelles. The clasp is sterling silver with a genuine amethyst on the 17.5" necklace. The matching earrings are 2.25"
*Note: Vendor calls this dyed jade, but I believe it may be quartz instead.
This unusual agate pendant reminds me of bare branches against a wintry grey sky. Various shades of cream, gray, rust and brown in the pendant are set off by silvery-gray freshwater pearls, faceted rondelles of smoky quartz and Bali vermeil spacers. The necklace is 24" in length and the pendant is 2.25". This piece is finished off with a lovely Bali vermeil toggle clasp. Matching bracelet and earrings are included.
I found this lovely faceted "chunk" of pink Peruvian opal at a bead show and just fell in love with the swirls of cotton candy and rose pinks that it displays. I've paired it with some deep pink rhodonite barrels and slices, some rose quartz chips and Bali silver. There are a couple of tiny white freshwater pearls on the pendant also. The necklace is 24" in length. The 8" matching bracelet and 2" matching earrings are included in the set.
Delicate, shimmering silver pearls are intertwined with rose quartz chips and sterling silver chain to create 16" of classic beauty. Matching earrings included.
Most of the components in this set come from Thailand so I named it after my favorite Thai restaurant. The intricately stamped pendant, silver accent beads and toggle clasp are Thai Hill Tribe silver (99.9% silver - more pure than sterling!). The set also features genuine chrysoprase and citrine. The necklace is 19.75" and the earrings are 1.75" and hang from sterling silver French hooks. The set also includes a 6.75" triple strand bracelet. Click the photo for details.
This triple strand necklace is 15 1/2" of deep, rich emerald green pearls spiced with gold accent beads and interwoven with a strand of creamy white freshwater pearls. A 14k gold vermeil toggle clasp finishes the necklace and matching 2" earrings complete the set.
I had planned a more complicated design for these stones, but I finally decided they were so pretty on their own that I just added some Bali silver beads and clasp and let the stones speak for themselves. The necklace is 18.75" in length and the matching earrings are 1.5" and hang from sterling silver leverbacks.
