Wedding Gift Boxes - Black With Gold Leaf
12 hand made, hand built gift boxes for your Valentine's Day group party. Made from 12 x 12 inch scrap booking black card stock, embossed vintage 1940's 18 carat gold leaf and full size hand cut insert bottoms shapes.
This is a eco-friendly design and the construction is so simple. Each box measures 4 x 4 x 2" and 6" corner to corner each has been meticulously folded, scored and center point glued with a shape to complete a ready made hand built box. The boxes are empty inside. But ready for your fine creative treasure's. Conveniently each box is left "un-marked" by ecovintagevegan, allowing you to take claim for these little gifted wonders...and fill them with your own hand made candies or jewels.
This American style of folding paper, yields from the turn of the century, where lady folk congregated to make and reproduce these little boxes from post cards and birthday cards.
Certainly easy enough for everyone to assemble, but why? when I have done the work for you.
These Valentine's Day party boxes will be individually wrapped in tissue paper for delivery to your door.
Parcel Post with insurance and delivery confirmation.
NOTE:
Gold leaf is set with a eco friendly homemade glue. Gold leaf obtained in 1995 when I helped clean out a fourth generation lapidary rock shop.. .Just pure gold!

February Amethyst Birth Month - Brandberg Crystal
One sweet thin natural amethyst Brandberg crystal. A simple small crystal packed with amethyst coloring and a small smoky phantom pocket. The crystal measures 1 3/4" long by 4mm thick. Clear perfect Brandberg form and coloring.
The crystal has been wrapped in 12 carat 20 gauge round wire and complete simply with doubled 1mm black leather cording and vintage paua shell button clasp, three symmetrical 4mm 12 carat gold beads on either side of the crystal top. Neck length right at 16". The crystal has been cleared and smudged. No wires or metal detract from open ends or the natural energy of the crystals shaft or point.
Healing properties included quartz, amethyst and the collective energies of Brandberg Nambia crystals.
Branberg (Brandberg) Amethyst, Clear or Smoky crystals yield from Nambia, most all contain rainbows, prismatic veils, enhydros and true hematite or lepidocrsite inclusions either within or surrounding the host crystal. Certainly all contain superior beauty but are also magical and healing. Those Branberg specimens in my collection inhabit most all those characters and it’s not often I choose to part with any of them.
Crystal pendant will arrive in a handmade gift box shipped Priority Mail.

AMBER - Baltic Encapsulated Winged Creature

One fine and handsome Baltic amber chunk, polished and wrapped in ribbons of 12 carat 20 gauge gold wire and completed simply with doubled 2mm leather, a vintage Bakelite button for the clasp and a 8mm gold filled bead.
The amber features a small winged creature, only the wing is visible. The natural amber chunk measures 1 3/4" wide and 10mm to 18mm thick and 30mm tall.
The neck length is a choker style 13".
This amber piece was finished in 1998, but because I have a tendency to horde and hygrade pieces some of my stones rarely see the light of day.
Amber represents prosperity, many show people carry a piece in their cash boxes for good luck. Also, used for your third eye and crown chakra.
