Imagine walking through a magical forest surrounded by rich colors—merlot reds, hunter greens, and warm caramels. The rustling leaves, earthy scents, and a sense of mystery transport you to an enchanted place. That’s the inspiration behind the Enchanted Woodland Jewelry Collection, designed with the stunning Red Creek Jasper gemstone.
Here’s a closer look at the collection I designed, the story behind it, and why these handcrafted pieces are one-of-a-kind treasures.
The Gem Behind the Magic: Red Creek Jasper
The heart of the Enchanted Woodland Collection is Red Creek Jasper, a gemstone discovered about a decade ago in northwest China. While searching for turquoise, miners stumbled upon this unexpectedly beautiful stone. Unlike turquoise, Red Creek Jasper offers earthy hues that feel like a walk through a serene woodland. I personally discovered this gem several years ago while attending the JOGS Jewelry Show in Tucson, Arizona. I was amazed at the range of deep earthy colors that these gems display. In particular I am drawn to the caramel and merlot shades but the deep forest greens are beautiful as well.
What makes this Jasper special? Its colors. Think of warm bricks, deep reds, hunter greens, and buttery caramels, all swirling together like nature painted them herself. Every piece of this gemstone is entirely unique because no two stones are alike. This natural variety adds a layer of exclusivity to each jewelry design.
Why It’s Called “Enchanted Woodland”
The name “Enchanted Woodland” wasn’t chosen by accident. The colors of Red Creek Jasper instantly evoke images of a magical forest. So Picture a warm sunlight filtering through the trees, highlighting mossy rocks and an elf peeking out from behind a shrub. It’s that kind of whimsical natural beauty that inspired the designs in this collection.
My idea is simple: create jewelry that connects you, the wearer to the spirit of the wilderness and its wonder.
A Few Details About Red Creek Jasper
Red Creek Jasper belongs to the Jasper family, itself part of the Chalcedony group of minerals. But unlike most Jaspers that are known for their durability, Red Creek Jasper is more brittle. This fragility is stabilized during the jewelry-making process by adding resins, ensuring its durability while maintaining its natural charm. The result? Beautiful, long-lasting designs you can enjoy every day without worry.
When I am creating new designs it is vital that the finished piece will stand the test of time. The majority of my designs are meant to be worn now and then passed along to a future generation. Creating heirloom jewelry is part of the joy I experience knowing my designs are timeless.
