Pewter Gothic Vampire Pendants

Gothic Vampire Jewelry

Brought to you by Alchemy of England this pewter Death of a Vampire - Alchemy Gothic pendant is a great example of the vampire jewelry which is extremely popular right now.
 

Pewter is one of the mainstays of vampire jewelry as are dark and/or red stones to symbolize the darkness of their souls or the blood that drives them.

This pendant is a fantastic piece of vampire jewelry as it encompasses a sword blade, bat wings and a red heart.   If you love vampire jewelry then you'll absolutely adore this dark, Gothic pendant.

I should also mention that this particular piece of jewelry is cast and handmade in English pewter.

Just in case it doesn't appeal to you, or you already own it we'll look at a few other pieces as well.

The Sacred Heart Gothic Pendant

If you're stuck for a gift for the teen in your life then the chances are they'd love a piece of vampire jewelry like this Sacred Heart Gothic pendant.

The Sacred Heart - Alchemy Gothic Pendant NecklaceCheck Price
This Sacred Heart Alchemy Gothic pendant is cast and hand made in English Pewter, it also uses crystal and enamel to help give a lavish look to what is essentially a heart pendant that has gone very dark in the name of Gothic jewelry.

Also brought to you by Alchemy of England, established in 1977, this company has really found the core of Gothic vampire jewelry with their dark designs.


Bleeding Heart Gothic Pendant


Another version of a Gothic heart pendant is Bleeding Heart - Alchemy Gothic Pendant Necklace also by Alchemy of England. This Gothic heart vampire pendant shows a cascade of crystal blood pouring from the cruel wounds of tortured love inflicted on the person. Loving a vampire can hurt!

The pewter skulls, heart, crystals and chains all add up to make this a really funky gift for someone.......or you may just not be able to resist keeping it for yourself!

Want More Vampire Jewelry?

Vampire Jewelry is a growing market that was greatly influenced by the Victorians. Inspired by pewter and dark gems a lot of vampire jewelry incorporates garnets and onyx.

Victorian Influenced Vampire Jewelry - The Victorian era favored 'dark gems' such as pyrite, jet, garnets and onyx and these same gems are also favored in the making of Vampire Jewelry. The garnet influence is perfect for.....

Garnet Inspired Vampire JewelryBohemian deposits in Czechoslovakia. It is these Czechoslovakian mined garnets that are characterized by their rich deep red color. Almost like the color of blood......

A Couple More Gothic Vampire Necklaces

I just can't resist adding a couple more pendants for you to enjoy - I'd love to get all of them myself!


Both of these necklaces are also brought to you by Alchemy of England, let me tell you a bit about them both.   The Mirror of the Soul - Alchemy Gothic pendant is a beautiful pendant hanging on velvet for a fantastic look.   Peer deeply into the Gothic heart and the face of death will peer back with inevitable certainty. As usual with Alchemy of England products this pendant is cast & hand made in fine English pewter.

The La Fleur de Baudelaire Gothic Choker style necklace is named for the nineteenth century 'Gothic' poet called Charles Baudelaire and in particular his Fleurs du mal work which means Flowers of evil.

The green in the middle of this choker style of necklace is said to represent absinthe or the green fairy as some call it.   Absinthe was a very popular drink in some Parisian quarters during the 1800s and was said to give the drinker supernatural powers of creativity.

Personally, I just love the look of this necklace, but it certainly has an interesting idea behind it as well!

E is for Emeralds

Carrying on with the A-Z Blogging Challenge we are up to E already.   E is for Emeralds, but I'm not talking about the gorgeous emeralds that are my birthstone, I'm talking about Emerald Resin Rings.   Emerald Resin Rings really are a funky and unique piece of jewelry.

Resin can be molded and so doesn't face the restrictions that gemstones do.   This means that you can end up with funky looking pieces such as the emerald resin ring pictured.   

These rings take all of the great things about working with resin to make great unique pieces of jewelry and combine it with the beautiful green that an emerald can bring to fine pieces of jewelry.   It really is the best of both worlds.

The cost of an emerald resin ring is a fraction of the price of an actual emerald which is always great especially when they look so great (no one will ever guess you didn't spend a veritable fortune on it).   These rings make an awesome gift idea for anyone who loves jewelry, especially jewelry that's a little big different with a personality all of it's own.

B is for Birthstone Jewelry

For the second day of the A-Z Blogging Challenge we need to find something beginning with B and I’ve decided to choose birthstones.   It’s no secret that I love jewelry and so we have yet another post about pieces of jewelry – this time we’re talking about birthstones.   Did you know that wearing your birthstone is supposed to be lucky?

There are 12 different birthstones one for each month of the year.   Most people know their own birthstone, but how are you on other months?   If you fancy yourself as a bit of a gem know it all or you just love taking quizzes then check out this one –


Some of the more popular birthstone jewelry designs are hearts, so much so that there is even a Heart Shaped Birthstone Jewelry Store that sells just this type of jewelry.

If you don’t really like heart jewelry then what do you think of these funky designs?

Celtic Jewelry Makes A Great Gift

I love the look of Celtic jewelry and with St Patrick's Day only a few weeks away it seemed like a good idea to feature some.   I have written about silver Celtic jewelry on a page - Buy Silver Celtic Jewelry Online - which features both Celtic knot pendants and Celtic cross pendants.

Another popular choice of celtic jewelry is the Claddagh ring.

What I particularly like though is the bracelet above, this is a great unique twist on the usual Celtic jewelry available which makes it ideal for this blog.

This ring is available from Amazon and looks gorgeous, well worth a gift at any time of the year.   Here's the product description from Amazon -

Vampire Jewelry is Hot Right Now

It’s hardly surprising that vampire jewelry should be popular right now with the Twilight saga whipping up fans and television offering shows such as True Blood and . There are lots of different types of vampire jewelry available such as the gothic pewter vampire jewelry and Victorian Influenced Vampire Jewelry. Garnets are also very popular in vampire jewelry – read more about that at Garnet Inspired Vampire Jewelry.

If you have any Twihards to buy for though, you’re better off getting some official Twilight jewelry such as Bella’s moonstone ring or Edwards wristcuff.

How to Train Your Dragon Jewelry

I love jewelry and the cocktail ring seems to be really hot at the moment especially dome styles, but I had never seen a ring that looked as cool as this one –


Daivya's Dragon Cocktail Ring - Sterling Silver


A dragon ring seemed appropriate as How to Train Your Dragon is presently playing at the movies.

Another great selection of unusual rings are resin rings – available in a number of bright colors resin is a malleable material which means that you can create more unusual designs than ones using jewels. If you’re interested in seeing what I mean then you can check out my page on Emerald Resin Jewelry.
