Welcome to White Tideline Designs ~

Jewelry-as-Art!

Every jewelry creation within these pages has a name and a story and represents a journey. When the muse hits me, I sit down to design & create. Often former trips ~ the cobbled streets of Paris, the islands of British Columbia, Tuscany's Medieval Hilltowns, Norway's Finnmarksvidda, Incan ruins in Peru & the mystery that is Antarctica ~ are a force behind my creations. Or watercolor paintings by my seven year old, Gabe, and his enviable color combinations, serve as my creative guide. Every piece I make is a one-of-a-kind design and though the muse may be the same, no two pieces will ever be identical.

My jewelry is designed and created using the finest beads and materials available including sterling silver & gold vermeil from Thailand's skilled Karen Hilltribe silversmiths, Bali Silver, Swarovski crystals, gemstones, Baltic amber, moonstone, quartz, agate, chalcedony, freshwater pearls among many others. Highlighting each creation, however, are exquisite lampwork beads made by studio glass artists. Each bead is handcrafted and a work of glass-art to be treasured forever. Kiln-annealed, these beads are difficult to break, making for a work of truly wearable art and a treasure to behold.

Revel in the joyous distraction of the sound of fine crystal and the way light is caught in a thousand colors like a white tideline at noon!

#99987. 'Carmel Beach' Several weekends back we went to Carmel on a quick day trip. There is something about Carmel, a beautiful other worldliness which begins as you drive down Ocean Avenue. The colorful locals, the hanging flower baskets, the old pine trees, the posh shops including my favorite - the Coach bag shop (has a wonderful clearance section) and finally ending at the world's most beautiful village beach, especially at sunset. It is like entering a different world, set so apart from the common reality and it is nice to step into that world, if only for an hour or two which is why Carmel is the muse behind this piece. The focal lampwork beads are by the esteemed artist, Melanie of Glassvalley, one of my favorite glass artists. When this set of beads arrived, I just about fell off my chair. These are the beads of summertime at the sea, the soft shade of blue, turquoise and white. Some beads look like encased jellyfish, others look like encased strands of kelp waving in the surf and yet others look like the drops of sea mist riding on the wind and the waves. They are so exquisitely done; as if the sea is alive under the layer of clear glass. With such extraordinary lampwork beads in hand I wanted to create a premier piece. As some of you know, I have recently taken a road less travelled in my design work and fallen in love with the natural beauty of semi-precious gemstones. I love their earthiness and their natural shine when cut and faceted just the right way. And I love how they combine with lampwork beads, created by premier glass and torch artists. I have finally found a first rate stone seller who offers flawless (albeit pricey) stones from around the world. Within the composition of 'Carmel Beach' you will find extraordinary turquoise briolettes from the Sleeping Beauty mine in Arizona. Considered sacred by the Najavo, the turquoise mined here is considered some of the finest in the world. The stones you will find as companions to the lampwork beads are: * Fancy cut Apatite nuggets * Mystic rock crystal briolettes * Caribbean Blue Hydrothermal quartz * Brazillian green amethyst briolettes * Freshwater pearls galore * Turquoise from the famed Sleeping Beauty mine Also tumbled into the gorgeous chaos of the piece are sterling silver droplets from Thai's Hilltribe artists, furnace glass beads in lime by David Christensen,lots of Swarovski crystals, Bali beads & spacers and a stunning Hibiscus flower by the Thai Hilltribe artisans. An ornate Bali silver toggle completes 'Carmel Beach' which measures approximately 7.5 inches in length and can be resized at no additional charge. 1 in stock

#6987. 'Topaz Sunset' 'Pink Topaz Sunset' is designed around the stunning lampwork beads of Nellie Mae of Australia. I discovered her work several months ago and nearly lost my breath. What she does with color is amazing and her beads seem to tell a story or, in any case, one cannot help but weave a story as one works with her beads. The beads of 'Pink Topaz Sunset' are the cool, swirling, whirling colors of the of pink, lavender and champagne. They are the cosmos above, the breathing in and out of the universe, the vortex, the cortex of life. Nellie Mae casts a spell with her glasswork and she couches her designs under a gorgeous thick layer of clear glass which adds depth and further purpose to her colors beneath. Small bumps of glass encircle each bead, adding an abstract touch to the beads. Extraordinary work. The stunning lampwork beads are surrounded by striking beads in complementary colors. * AAA pink topaz faceted briolettes * Champagne Ametrine briolettes * Hot Pink Chalcedony briolettes * Sculpted clay roses by published artist, D. Jean Vainio * Mystic quartz briolettes * Swarovski cubes & bicones * Freshwater pearls * Furnace beads by D. Christensen * Vermeil rose charm by Karen Hilltribe artisans * Bali Vermeil beads & findings & toggle clasp "Pink Topaz Sunset" measures at just 7 3/4 inches and can be resized at no additional charge. Each bracelet is created as a glass and gemstone sculpture in color, component and design. "Pink Topaz Sunset" is an original design, not duplicated en masse; one of its kind only. 1 in stock

#6654. 'Tropical Punch' It is Spring and time to think of outdoor parties and summertime getaways. I wanted to create a fun, opulent pair of dangle earrings reminiscent of Caribbean sunsets and the bright and vivid colors of the islands. I have only been to the Caribbean one time on an expedition cruise to witness a total eclipse of the sun and that trip is the muse behind 'Tropical Punch.' Recently I have taken a road less travelled in my design work and fallen in love with the natural beauty of semi-precious gemstones. I love their earthiness and their natural shine when cut and faceted just the right way. I have finally found a premier stone seller who offers flawless (albeit pricey) stones from around the world. 'Tropical Punch' is designed around flawless, elegant pink topaz stones. Complementing the topaz are pink Chalcedony briolettes, Blue Fire Moonstone which shimmer in just the right light, freshwater stick and button pearls in cream, purple and pink and pink faceted cubic zirconia onions. Taken together, it is a jumble of perfect pink and purple chaos in stones & pearls. Tres chic and cutting-edge. 'Tropical Punch' measures just under 2 inches from the sterling leverback earring base. All sterling components and findings are used in my work. 1 in stock

#65656. 'Pink' Recently I have taken a road less travelled in my design work and fallen in love with the natural beauty of semi-precious gemstones. I love their earthiness and their natural shine when cut and faceted just the right way. And I love how they combine with my all-time favorite, lampwork beads, created by premier glass and torch artists. I have finally found a premier stone seller who offers flawless (albeit pricey) stones from around the world. 'Pink' incorporates many of these stones. The focal lampwork beads are by the esteemed artist, Gina De Stevens. One of my best repeat clients was raving about this artist, whom I had heard of certainly. I was inspired to track down some of her work and have a look. I was thrilled to find and obtain these amazing etched (sanded glass for a satin, silken feel) rose chintz, daisy orbs. I feel like I won a great prize when I was able to get my hands on this set. They are exquisite. Beyond exquisite. Elegant and extraordinary. Companion beads to the beads by Gina are by Melanie of GlassValley. These are so subtle; a baby pink and white scroll which allows Gina's beads to take the stage. A perfect complement. The stones you will find as companions to the lampwork beads are: * faceted blue fire moonstone * Lilac Chalcedony faceted briolettes * Pink Chalcedony faceted briolettes in two shades * Brazilian faceted amythest * Pink Cubic Zirconia * Pink quartz rondelles * Freshwater pearls galore Accenting the whimsy and joy of the piece, I have included a heavy sterling lovebirds charm, two turtle dove charms and two rosebud charms, all in sterling. A white silver heart toggle completes the piece. 'Pink' is a luxury piece - void of so many of the usual textures, florals & beads. The stones are the thing along with the elegant, classic colors and depths of the lampwork. A piece for Spring fever. If you aren't feeling the 'fever' of Spring quite yet, you will when you put on 'Pink.' 'Pink' measures just at approximately 7.5 inches and can be resized at no additional charge. 1 in stock
