Thursday, 17 March 2011. Hi I thought I'd better tell those of you that follow me here, that I am not going to be updating this blog anymore! I am in the process of opening an Etsy shop to sell my jewellery, and will be closing Amadora Designs for good.I thought I'd go under my actual name, which feels right to me at this juncture.I think I had a lack of confidence before, and put jewellery up under a pretty, but impersonal name. So here are the pertinent links:. Http:/ sambraundjewellery.etsy.com. The s...

Thursday, 23 December 2010. Mokume Gane in Polymer Clay. Along with my new found passion for creating kaleidoscope cane, I have been getting into Mokume Gane. There are a few methods out there. I have been experimenting with Tory Hugh's texture imprint version, and mixinng it up with the Hidden Magic versions, with some fun results. I made some texture sheets, by making patterns out of extruded snakes of polymer on a flat sheet. Then imprinted them onto my skinner blends of clay. Hearts and Kisses :).

Monday, 14 March 2011. Mokume Gane Minipop Pendants. I have used some of the Mokume Gane sheets to make these fun and funky little pendants. I've been calling them Minipops. I have absolutely no idea why, LOL.but the name has now stuck. Minipop Pendants, fancy one? I really need to get some work done, and get off the laptop. Posted by Samantha Braund. 25 September 2012 at 18:53. These are so beautiful. Loving all of your designs.Rose. 21 June 2013 at 00:52. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). K S Jewelle...

Amadora Designs UK Blog: August 2010

Saturday, 28 August 2010. The idea behind this bracelet and pendant, is that they are jewellery discovered by mermaids, in shipwrecks lying at the bottom of the ocean. These ornate, decadent pieces of jewellery have been ravaged by the sea, and become encrusted with barnacles, over time. As you can see, I do let my imagination run free! These pieces are sculpted in fine silver, with freshwater water pearls. Click the thumbnails to see images in full size. Posted by Samantha Braund. Links to this post.

Monday, 27 September 2010. Florabelles - Fairy Lanterns. Do you remember me mentioning my current obsession with Fairy Lanterns? It came up in this post. About my creative process. Well, I finally made a couple of these lanterns, sculpted in Fine silver. The faceted gemstones are the twinkly fairy lantern lights, reminiscent of dew drops. I've named them Florabelles, because of the bell shaped flora and fauna, cupping the gemstones. I intend to make more of these in various gemstones. Links to this post.

Saturday, 31 July 2010. Land Of The Rising Sun Pendant. One of my latest pieces, inspired by Japanse themes. The pendant represents a Japanese Koi fish, resting on a background of sun rays, patterned like the old Japanese flag. The stone is an oval citrine glass cabochon, to represent the sun. It's another of my silver wire and clay combined sculptured pendants. A hint of a golden bronze patina covers the surface of the pendant. Hope you like it :). Posted by Samantha Braund.
