About Miriam's Designer Jewelry

beaded pens and beaded bookmarks

Gemstone color is determined by color markings of natural minerals in the sunlight. Many minerals, quartz for example, occur naturally in a variety of colors - and most individual semiprecious gemstones are multicolored, showing a rich variety of colorations. Some minerals are white or colorless. Even fewer (like black onyx) are solid in color. Unless specifically described as "solid," all the natural semiprecious gemstones used by Miriam are multi-colored or show variations and shadings of a single color.

Natural gemstones each have a unique combination of pattern, texture, transparency and color - even when they belong to the same rock or mineral family - and even when cut from the same larger stone. A single stone source, for example, may include a combination of minerals with different colors, tones and textures. Because natural stone is not a sterile gem quality, it sometimes shows the rough and scarred appearance that results from the adverse climatic conditions under which it was created. This is a beautiful feature of natural stone. Exquisite colors, crystalline structures, luster and the play of light, natural inclusions (crystals or fragments of other substances), streaks and markings...all reflect the continuous evolution of the Earth over hundreds and thousands of years. Some natural stones are heat-treated or enhanced for clarity. A natural gemstone that is enhanced is still considered a "natural gemstone."

Below is a list of the various gemstone color groupings and color variations - and links to the gemstone jewelry included in Miriam's current treasure chest.

Miriam designs each piece of jewelry to accent the natural stone color, shape and texture. 

There are literally hundreds of color combinations in Nature's beautiful array of natural gemstones.

"I hope, one day, to have worked with every possible gemstone variety," said Miriam.

Ceramic and Glass Beads also have individual qualities of pattern and color that vary from bead to bead. Ceramic and Glass beads are made all over the world, many by hand. This often means there might be irregularities in shape and color that only add to the beauty of each piece. While the same or similar glass, sterling silver and other accent beads may be used in more than one jewelry item— Miriam varies each design to craft an exceptional work of art.
