Now, here's some more info on the pieces that will be for sale:
Gothic Angel
This is a simplified version of my other piece, Valkyrie. I realise some people might not like the mythology aspect of that piece so much, and I must admit it's a bit of me indulging my inner geek xD This design is much less cluttered and more streamlined, the focus is quite clearly on the stone in the middle - a Heliotrope Swarovski Crystal Heart. I love the colour, and I think the aged gold of the brass really makes the colour pop even more ♥
For sale: Gothic Angel by ValkyrieCouture Sold.
Closeups of Atlantis and Gryphon Tear
These are closeups of two of my new pendants, Atlantis (silver) and Gryphon Tear (brass). Mostly because I really love the colour of the stones used here - Heliotrope and Bermuda Blue by Swarovki. They're my two favourite colour of stone, and I love love love them. Bermuda Blue's a lovely interplay of blues and greens that's like midsummer sea and mermaid scales, absolutely lovely ♥ Heliotrope's a colour I only managed to get recently so I'm very excited about it, it's mostly purple with splashes of indigo and aqua, very mysterious and rich.
I love pretty colours, so these stones make me unbelievably happy - just looking at them makes me feel inspired. Anyway. More shots of these here: ValkyrieCouture on Facebook. Or if you want to jump straight to the listings, they're on sale:
Atlantis (Silver) filigree pendant
Gryphon Tear (Brass) filigree pendant Sold.
That's all for now, don't forget the 50% sale code: VCOPENSALE!

Avarice fantasy filigree jewelry pendant mythology inspired | Go to post ➜
Avarice
The second piece! I love the way the dragon curls around the stone on this - somehow I feel dragons are the ones who are wronged in fairytales. All they do is guard what's precious to them against greedy men. I've always loved dragons - books like the Eragon trilogy make me happy beyond belief. ♥
Anyway. I decided to name this piece after the greed and lust dragon hoards evoke. Plus, the colours in this pendant are very rich and opulent - love the contrast between the deep red and aged gold. I'll probably be remaking this design in other colours as well!
More pictures up on facebook: ValkyrieCouture on Facebook
I've decided that the first collection will go on sale this weekend, and I'm having a opening 50% SALE. Coupon code will be released on facebook, so stay tuned!

Valkyrie filigree jewelry pendant necklace fantasy inspired mythology | Go to post ➜
Valkyrie
As promised - a sneak peek at the first piece of my new line, ValkyrieCouture. I love the way it turned out, with the heart tucked secretively under layers of beautiful brass filigree; it's very mysterious and eye catching at the same time :D
Since this was my first attempt at such a complex filigree piece, I feel I've got a lot to learn. For now though I'm very happy with the way this has been going! Hopefully ValkyrieCouture will be full of beautifully made pieces in the near future :)
To view more shots of this piece as well as other upcoming pieces, head on over to ValkyrieCouture on Facebook. I'd really appreciate if you could 'like' the Facebook page, because I need at least 25 likes to get my own username.
