Chunky Silver And Onyx Watch

Chunky Silver And Onyx WatchThe creator of this piece says: I had been looking for an original watch for some time and decided to make something that I liked and was eye-catching.

I'm a fan of chunky jewelery and used some great silver floral charms, some oval onyx beads and a couple of preserved rose buds to add some color. I constructed this watch using q-pins and o-links.


There's nothing better than telling people, "Oh this little thing? Uh, I made it, actually!"

About the Artist: Charisma De Castro

I remember beading love beads with my Mum in the 80s when I was a kid and have loved making all things crafty ever since!

I'm originally from Australia and am an aspiring designer. I took a job in Japan 5 years ago and my love for making jewellery was rekindled when I walked into a random bead shop one day and didn't leave until closing time!

Colour is an important factor in my work as is texture. Since living in Japan, I've gone from making bright seed bead chokers to coaster sets of 8 using 6mm Czech glass beads!

I'm usually attracted to the bead first and then my ideas flow afterwards...I've always loved how the imagination is limitless!
