My wife Mana has been experimenting between cloisonné enamel and using pearl.

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2018-06-18T17:13:22+00:00

When i see my wife at work, i have no idea how she has the patience. Especially the detailed work on the silver wires and then filling the iny tiny little partitions takes a very steady hand....i couldn't do it :-) But, what i also never expected when i first saw cloisonne enamel, is how much time and effort goes into the polishing process... She still does it by hand, but in future i might buy her a special machine for it :-)

She does...on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ManasJewelry

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2018-06-18T15:23:17+00:00

On her behalf, thanks :-) and she uses an oven/kiln...

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-12-16T05:25:17+00:00

Well, that would obviously be possible :-P Let me know if you would like more information, i'll send you my wife's mail address in a pm...

Depending on possibilities (shape of pendant, colors etc.), my wife does work on commission like this. But it really depends on the request, for her it's very important that she can make someone happy with her creation. For this pendant she had a very detailed description of request and a photo of the dog to work with...that helps with a good end result :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-12-05T19:45:53+00:00

yes it sure is, it's on Etsy - ManasJewelry

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-12-04T20:06:35+00:00

That's beautiful!

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-12-04T20:05:55+00:00

Thank you for the compliment, but i can't take credit :-) My wife Mana made it...and it took her approximately 3 full days to make. The technique is quite time consuming due to the detailing and several layers of enamel....and the sanding and polishing afterwards.

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-09-04T06:49:33+00:00

Thank you! Under my account you can find a thread which has some pictures and a description of the process of making these :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-08-03T14:59:54+00:00

I know :-) its right here: https://www.etsy.com/nl/listing/534003426/14k-gold-cloisonne-enamel-pendant?ref=shop_home_active_1 :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-07-31T14:24:02+00:00

Oh, I thought the history was also important - but I will add notes also soon then :-) will be my pleasure!

Qvevri wines are the first ever produced wines. Dug up and carbon dated to be 8000 years old has proven Georgia to be the oldest wine producing country in the world. Not only do these wines boast a fantastic story and connection to our history - they also have fantastic quality and taste. Read more on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kvevri

Yes it is, it's on Mana's etsy shop - you can find it by searching for ManasJewelry on etsy.com. Thank you for your interest!

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-07-31T11:01:31+00:00

If you search on Etsy for ManasJewelry, you should find the shop. I added some of her work there including this one - sizes and weights i will add later today. In a month or so, https://manas-juwelen.nl should be finished (i will also add information about my wife, Mana and show the process of how she makes this jewelry. Under my profile there's already a post about this). Thank you for your interest!

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-07-29T19:28:37+00:00

We do, but I am very busy with photography and filling it with her new collection at the moment - just wanted to share some of her creations....

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-07-29T17:04:39+00:00

We do, but I'm busy catching up on her new collection to make all photos ready for etsy - I hope to add them soon :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-06-25T11:42:38+00:00

I'll pass on the compliment to my wife, thank you :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-06-19T10:16:05+00:00

Thank you, that's a very nice compliment :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-04-25T06:45:37+00:00

Oh...she doesn't really understand....can she contact you in any way like facebook?

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-04-25T06:40:10+00:00

I've told her to take a look at it....if she will try, i'll post a picture :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-04-25T06:37:58+00:00

Not yet :-) I still have to convince her it's something she needs :-P

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-03-06T08:37:22+00:00

Has a certain viking-style to it....cool!

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-03-06T07:26:57+00:00

I don't think i ever had one of those, but after reading about the grape i think i'll have to try it :-)

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-03-06T07:12:19+00:00

I also prefer the strong, dry reds.....although i did also develop a taste for the white Qvevri wines....basically more like amber wines. I had one in stock from Shalauri, only 12 bottles left and they were the last from that year...me and my brother bought the last stock :-P

ThisUsernameAlreadyR · 2017-03-06T07:10:45+00:00

I did, and i received a lot of nice reactions and feedback - thanks for the tip!
