ArtFire Crazy Train - Il Mare Atelier
Shame on me, I neglected to do a post for the ArtFire Crazy Train rider for the 25th & 26th of February. The rider for those two days was Il Mare Atelier. The artisan explains that the name is a combination of Italian and French words - Il Mare (the sea, in Italian), and "Atelier" (workshop, in French), and put together, mean "Studio by the Sea". She lives in Singapore.
The artisan offers an array of earrings, bracelets and necklaces, all made with genuine semi-precious gemstones, like quartz, amethyst, topaz, citrine and many others.
Here is a pretty blue topaz necklace (now sold) :
And this is a beautiful pair of earrings made with amethyst, topaz, and sapphires on gold-filled lever backs:
And finally, here is a lovely bracelet made with amethyst, citrine and mystic pink quartz with 14k gold-filled chain:
She does beautiful work, please go give her studio a visit!
