Enchanted Woodland Jewelry Collection; Wear a Little Magic!

January 8, 2025 By Alene Geed Leave a Comment

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.

Standout Pieces From the Collection

Each piece in the collection highlights the natural beauty of the gemstone. Whether it’s a ring, Cuff, pendant, or earring, the vibrant patterns and colors take center stage. A few of the standout pieces are pictured in this blog. Here is a brief description .

  • Textured sterling silver Ring. This design features a bold brick-colored gem set in sterling silver. The warmth of the stone’s hue includes a tiny sliver of the forest green I mentioned earlier.
  • Caramel-Toned Pendant: Showcasing lighter caramel shades, this pendant is complemented by a deep yellow Baltic amber gem. The combination creates a radiant yet natural appeal.
  • Hunter Green Pendant: This piece highlights the deep greens and rich brick tones of the stone. i especcially love the deluxe sterling silver setting and the faceted topaz gem. The perfect choice for anyone who loves earthy, grounding colors.

Each design comes with its own unique gemstone, meaning your jewelry will never look exactly like someone else’s. It’s personal, just for you.

Customization and Matching Options

Sometimes, finding the perfect set can be tricky. If you love a pendant but need matching earrings—or vice versa—I am happy to create a custom match for you. I keep several of the red creek jasper gems in stock which offers plenty of flexibility to create something tailored to your preferences.

This customization ensures that your jewelry feels as unique and thoughtfully curated as the collection itself.

I still have the first pair of earrings I bought from Alene and wear them frequently.  I could  almost open my own store with all the cuffs, earrings, and necklaces I own of Alene’s.  I admire and respect her talent.  It has been  wonderful to watch her jewelry progress over almost 20 years.  What a pleasure  to wear her talent.  Always compliments!!
