Signals is one of my favorite web sites and catalog companies to shop for unusual jewelry as well as other gift items. I confess the "gift" is too often for myself, but I find some great holiday presents here as well.

There jewelry if very often hand-crafted and so today I was caught up with looking at their mixed media pendants. For example, the one pictured left is called "Hello Gorgeous!" and it is says that on one side of the pendant in a tiny collage. The other side has a small mirror. The pendant is accented with crystals and the bezel is 14kt gold plated over pewter.

Here's another pendant called "Patron Saint of Eternal Optimism." It comes with a silver plated chain and the pendant is made using techniques similar those of stained glass, only the solder is lead free so it's safe to wear.



Finally, this sterling silver heart pendant with purple colored freshwater pearl hangs from suede cord.
