Designs by Lisa V ~ Handcrafted Artisan Jewelry

Working with Sterling Silver is my main passion, but I also love to incorporate handcrafted Bali beads, Hill Tribe Silver, Artisan crafted Lampwork, gemstones, and Swarovski Crystals into my pieces.

Handcrafted Bezel Set Cabochons

Handcrafted Bezel Set Cabochons

These pieces were custom designed using cabochons from my customer. I created a sterling bezel for each stone, and then made a pendant and earrings. All of the sterling pieces were handforged, with the exception of the two small balls on the earwires.

Bezel-set Fused Glass Pendant

Bezel-set Fused Glass Pendant

My friend Amber (ThatBeadGirl.com) just started making fused glass, and this was her first piece. She sent it to me, to make it into a custom pendant. I created a fine silver bezel around the glass, soldered all of the pieces together, and handcrafted a sterling silver bail. Working with a larger piece was a little tricky, but it was fun working with a new material!

Handcrafted Sterling & Boro Bracelet

Handcrafted Sterling & Boro Bracelet

My newest piece ~ completely handcrafted by me, with the exception of the boro & 2 little round spacers on the focal.

I bezel set the focal; handcrafted the butterfly charm, the toggle, and then endcaps; and I also cut the rings for the chain. This took many hours to create, but I am so proud of how it turned out! It's definitely the most work that I've ever put into one piece!!

Soldered Bezel Focal Bracelet

Soldered Bezel Focal Bracelet

I taught myself to solder today, and this is what I came up with! I've wanted to make a bezel on a bead for a long time, so I finally did it. I also handcrafted and soldered the side pieces, as well as making the clasp and rings.

Handcrafted Sterling & Boro Ring

Handcrafted Sterling & Boro Ring

This is a new ring design for me, where I soldered the band, and riveted on the top components. The bead sits upon a domed disc, which was hammered for texture. The bead and disc can spin around for a little added fun!

Uniquely Designed Sterling & Lampwork Bangles

Uniquely Designed Sterling & Lampwork Bangles

I love having one beautiful bead as the centerpiece of a bracelet. I designed these bangles just for that purpose! The curved sides keep the bracelet in place, and the bead on top, where it belongs!

Several of these were custom made for friends who are lampwork artists. They made the beads, sent them to me, and I made the bracelet for them. So FuN! :)
