Designers ONLY
|
When we meet an artist with whom our greyhound designs are compatible,
we are honored to feature their work with links to their own websites, if possible. If you admire the jewels of our suppliers, we encourage you to shop with them-
but for any of their artwork embellished with greyhounds,
(or you want to assure the earnings are directed to Greyt Causes)
you'll need to place your orders here- with Northcoast Greyhounds!
All the pieces you see in this category, are also shown under "All Unusual Jewels" so that if you prefer to shop by jewelry type (pendants, earrings, etc.), you'll see ALL we have available in one place- whether purchased directly from the designer or from the jewelry markets. |
BD: Double Amber Featured Item!
 Bail to Bottom, this double amber pendant measures three full inches. The tone is typical dark amber, the silver is shiny, the inclusions are sparkly, and 8Ball appears to love his rectangular pillow!
Price: $135.00
|
MH: Mamma/Pappa/Baby Featured Item!
 Mamma Bear, Pappa Bear and Baby Bear- in both size and price ranges, these three pieces are from Marta Howell's new line of turquoise and spiny oyster combinations. The contrast is so striking that they're bound to draw attention!
There's a 1" map pin in the picture, but it will help to know that the largest pendant measures 2.75" from the top of its fixed bail to the bottom point.
Coordinate with new turquoise & spiny oyster earrings on Marta Howell's page.

AC: Sweetness and Light
 We've just received some beautiful new "vintique" pieces from Anne Cook- this is the first of 11- all gorgeous and desirable!
This necklace is made with silk bows and flower, miscellaneous gemstone accents and vintage Chanel chain. The earrings are of silk bows and faceted quartz bead drops, hung from gold filled ear wires.
So intentionally matched, we're hoping they'll go together, but as usual, we'll allow for separate purchases.

AC: "Elements" Necklace
 Lots of little vintage bits and pieces adorn this 15" double strand necklace- even the clasp is an antique! A special feature: the double charm drop (silver with carved Mother Of Pearl flower and rutilated quartz teardrop) is removable so you can attach it to another necklace, or just choose to wear the pretty necklace by itself.
the 15" length is appropriate for holding the 3" drop up close to your neck, and allows it, when worn by itself, to show beneath a collar.
This pretty Anne Cook creation gives new meaning to the term "unique"!
Price: $150.00

FD: Crystal Cube Earrings

HS: Medallian
 I've been wondering why this very last pendant by designer Hadas Shaham remains in our file- probably because it hasn't been appearing on the website. DUH! An error on our part.
"Mediallian" has the same sterling design on the back (without 8Ball, of course) as it does on the front, set into Ms Shaham's trademark cement designs. Medallian is suspended from a 28" chain. Distinctive!
Price: $185.00

MF: WINNER
* Your greyhound won lots of races, or...
* He's a winner because he found a wonderful home, or...
* YOU are the winner because you adopted him/her.
No matter how you interpret it, some greyhound somewhere will benefit because Michele Foster's lovely pendant featuring "Runner" was purchased here. It's a win-win-win situation.
Including our usual 1" map pin for sizing just seemed to reduce the glamor of this extravagant pendant/broach, so here are some measurements:
The rectangular stone has 3-dimensional inclusions in a clear quartz backed with sterling, and measures 2.25" X .875" all by itself.
The entire pendant/broach, including it's curvy shell and citrine adornments, measures 3.5" in height and is 3" wide.
Uniquely stunning.
Price: $375.00
|
MF: Against the Current
 Betty appears to be Swimming Against The Current on colorful ocean jasper in yet another magnificent piece of art by Michele Foster. Swirly shell and citrine in four different colors are all set in sterling.
Betty's stone measures 2.5" across and the pendant/broach measures 4" overall.
For the greyhound lover unafraid of making a bold statement!
Price: $400.00

MF: Double Jasper Artistry
 I've always said I'm a fan of nice clean geometrics rather than "free-form" shapes. But, then, I was referring to normal flat pendants - Michele Foster's jeweled sculptures are anything but normal!
Ms. Foster's vivid imagination lends entirely new meaning to the term "free-form". Her designs are fearless, with dips and swirls, flat and round surfaces- allowing the natural form of shell or stone to shape the design- sometimes standing components on end!
This piece, 3" from point to point, employs two forms of jasper with our medium sized "Dave" stretched across Ocean Jasper, his back legs sheltered beneath a shell sun-shade.
We just had to show you views from every angle! Whoops- I didn't photograph the back which would show you that this piece has both bail for hanging and pin for wearing as a broach.
Price: $350.00
|
MF: Radiant Earrings
 Pastel yellow Mother of Pearl with bits of color radiate from tiny 8Ball's focal point.
Price: $100.00
|
MF: Runner
 Another of Michele Foster's stunning creations, this pendant/brooch is designed around the 2.75" centerpiece of ocean jasper in muted tones of green. Shell swirls and little branches of green stones add contrasting lightness and air to the jasper's depth, and measure almost 4" in height!
Price: $375.00
|
MF: Subtle Color
 For mirror-shiny pieces like these earrings, one has to sneak up from the side to get a picture that doesn't have the photographer in it - still, black edges and lines are unavoidable. Trust me- they're really shiny!
The inlaid portion of the earrings are coated with a clear cover to make them shiny all over!
Price: $95.00
