Snake/Reptile inspired jewelry..
Everyone that knows me well, knows that I'm not much into jewelry (or fashion purses, watches, etc) I'm usually outdoors either doing chores or being..well outdoors ;) I would always have to take fine jewelry off and that gets old. Besides I find most of it boring and generic.
For me to like jewelry it has to be un-usual, unique and different. A old antique piece with a story, a handmade unique item or...snake inspired :)
My friends just came back from their European cruise and brought me this back...they know me well ;) I LOVE it. I also have some great snake earrings, but I can't wear those very often. This pendant though (made out of glass, from Venice) I can definitely wear. Its not "fine" jewelry, but its sooo cool :)
Does anyone else have snake or reptile inspired jewelry? I'm going to post a picture of the earrings in a little bit, have to find them, lol..

Here are the earrings. They were hand made in Malaysia, I love their detail..

There is also a Ring I love. But its made from chocolate diamonds (the only one's I like, I find clear diamonds boring, lol) by Le Vian. They make gorgeous snake/reptile jewelry, but a bit out of the affordable range ;)

Lovely! All of it. Especially coming from Europe and friends. That ring, though... You have excellent taste. :)

Hah!!!
Then you should see me after a hot summers day working at the barn and with the horse.
Grooming a horse is the process of transferring dirt from the horse to the owner, LOL. And then there is hay to move, paddocks to clean, etc. But I love it.
I also love fishing, but for the life of me, it doesn't love me back, I never catch anything. The one time I did, and got all excited, I reeled that fish in and RIGHT at the water edge it got loose and took off..sigh. While I can cook quite well and I'm a excellent (ocd) home maker, I much prefer doing work outdoors or reno projects, etc.
I've always been somewhat of a tomboy ;) I like to think I inherited some of that from my Dad who was a great man. He was a workaholic, couldn't sit still and he could fix/build everything. He was my hero. When we built our house in Germany I used to be right there beside him, at 11 years old, LOL, doing as much as I could.
Even this nice fishing Kayak and good gear doesn't help me any, its hopeless !!! And I googled bait, hooks, this and that. Hopeless, I say...

Isn't it gorgeous ? Le Vian makes such unique stuff. Lots of it with chocolate or colored diamonds on rose gold..so "different" and stunning. And there is a lot of reptile themed stuff.
But yeah, big $$ and I could hardly ever wear it. But perhaps one day I'll buy something from them just because. I can admire "my precious" at home, haha.
There is actually quite a lot of reptile / snake jewelry around. With so many people "disliking" our beloved animals, there are sure many buying that stuff..

I have a friend Shannon Culp who makes reptile jewelry.

Good for you! I am trying to raise my daughter the same way. And, wow, that kayak is Florida style fishing right there! Flats and bay. Tight lines!

It is! I had to look them up. Definitely unique, red carpet worthy and the price of a new horse!

Isn't that the truth !!!
I'm normally more into practical gifts, stuff for the house, vehicles, more animals or stuff for the animals, but I don't think I would say no to beautiful chocolate diamond piece :)

They've not arrived yet, but I've ordered a couple of necklaces from this Etsy store that have the skin from Smaug's first shed incorporated into them. :) One with the model snake for casual days, one plain silver one I can wear to work. I'll post a photo when I have them.

Something like yours, that looks really awesome !! :)

I sort of like this one.
Its very plain, but I have small hands, and the more intricate ones are usually quite big.
This is simple, yet unique :)

Sounds perfect for her then !
If you google snake rings and then click on images, its one of the first ones to pop up.
I would link you to it, but linking to a sales site is a no no. But its really easy to find :)

This is my 'current' wedding ring due to the decades of over eating since the marriage 37 years ago :)
I'm actually getting back to my old weight since I introduced fasting to my life ... another few months and I should be wearing my old ring again

I like that ring. You should continue wearing it, perhaps on the other hand? I think its cool :)

Well it's silver plated and looks real nice for a couple of months then it suddenly tarnishes and has to be replaced with a new one - not too bad at 3 dollars each inc p&p off eBay ..

Thank you, all.
Yup, Jag is a freak. LOL. Despite being a male he has always grown faster and bigger then all the others, on the same feed schedule..
Seems to me he just keeps on growing, too :)
