The Grandiose Tiger Eye Gem Collection
Tiger Eye is a well loved gemstone by many. Its colors are extremely versatile and the stone itself is very strong and dense.
The vertical luminescent yellow and brown alternating bands that resemble that of a tiger give this Quartz stone the name: Tiger Eye.
I recently put together a Tiger Eye collection called Tigre d’olive. I came across the most beautiful Tiger Eye Gemstones through a friend of my mother’s. This truly grandiose assortment gems consisted of the most extravagant faceted nuggets and colossally lustrous Tiger Eye beads I’ve ever seen!

Find the full line including Necklace, Bracelet and Earrings my Jewelry Shop on Etsy.

Being so thrilled to work with them, I instantly began pairing them with beads and baubles. I came up with this Feline Fatal combination that compliments each other greatly.
The Tigre d’olive line consists of a dynamic combination of Tiger Eye Gems and exquisite Cats Eye beads. I find it interesting that Roman solders used to wear Tiger Eye as protection when in battle believing that it was "all seeing." I suppose this intermingled duo I created would have been sought after by the greatest of kingdoms... :)
The strong and striking Tigre d’olive collection is not for the faint of heart!

Fabulous in February
The month of February is fabulous with colors of royalty: Amethyst.
A popular gemstone, Amethyst is a purple hued Quartz mineral.
The unique and intense color of purple has been known to adorn nobility; early monarchs were enthralled with Amethyst due to this. Since purple dyes were scarce and pricey back in the day, Purple was reserved for those who could afford such luxuries (ie, Royalty). Naturally occurring Amethyst gems were used to in the crowns, scepters and jewelry of Kings and Queens.
Here are some of my lovely creations crafted with February's finest:

Garnet in Season
January’s birthstone is the Garnet (Garnet also designated for the 2nd and 6th wedding anniversary). Some believe the word Garnet originated with the Latin granatum malum which means pomegranate. Fitting, huh?
While Garnets can be found in an array of colors, I decided to stay customary with my gem choices for my January Birthstone Line.
To open the line, I continued my Crandipity Collection. In addition to the original Crandipity Drop Necklace featuring cascading Garnet coins, I created a Signature piece. This will be a design style that you will see from la Naváa again in the future with other gems and crystals.
In addition to the Signature Crandipity Necklace, I created a Traditional look consisting of single 10mm wire-wrapped on Sterling Silver Figure Eight chain.
Due to their popularity, I also re-created the Crandipity Drop Earrings:
I’ve created yet another design with Garnet Gems to share with you. The second collection is a combination of January’s Garnet and Valentine’s Day. Red and hearts always seem to look so good together.
To accompany the Garnet stones, I used beautiful Iceflake Quartz Crystals, appropriate for the winter season I thought.
The open-heart pewter pendant is a-symmetrical in style, which is why I decided to continue the irregular theme by tilting the bead placement; it adds to the dramatic affect this delicate necklace.
Accompanying the Valentina Necklace is Valentina earrings in both Garnet and Iceflake Quartz Crystals. The Garnet style, named for its look, Raspberry, consists of cascading Garnets clusters.
Valentina Ice Earrings have a similar look:
You will soon begin to see my shop populating with these Garnet designs for January.
With next month being February, perhaps a few Amethyst designs will soon follow!
A very happy new year to you!
