Good Morning,
Today I would like to share some new items from the shop and pass along a little news.
It is with heavy heart that we share the announcement of Blue Buddha Boutique closing. The physical store in Chicago will be closing in February, 2016, and the website will be open until April of 2016. Supplies are limited. Although we are trying our best to grab stock while we can, many the products we carry will be limited to one of a kind or customization will no longer be offered. We apologize to our customers for this inconvenience, but wish the people at Blue Buddha Boutique a happy and bright future in their next adventure.
We encourage you to click through and browse the website, if there is an item or project you would like, please let us know as soon as possible.
The products below are made with the beautiful anodized and natural aluminum purchased through Blue Buddha Boutique.
The stunning jewelry set, is a complete parure or suit of matched
jewelry, and includes a bracelet, earrings, and necklace. From the old
French, parure means adornment, and no lady was considered socially
acceptable unless she had at least one. Terrific for the tailored
office suit, Date Date dazzle, or a fun and fabulous piece for that
weekend get away.
Perfect for Fantasy Film or event attire, LARP,
SCA, Cos-play, costumes, or makes a great gift for Game of Thrones, or

Good Morning,
Today we have five truly unique and individual items for the men on your list. All items are from the talented artists on The Craft Star. Masculine, sturdy, strong and handmade designs make for wonderful and unexpected gifts thus holiday.
From: Neolithia
This is "Bug Eyes", both beautiful and natural stone wearble art,
hand carved from two different pieces of Dracocite. The translucent
green hand carved beady eyes are strung on natural hemp cord that holds
them in the ET's head. The adjustable closure beads are also hand carved
from Dracocite, eliminating the use of metal. Wear this rare healing
stone and feel its power. This is truly a piece of fantasy pulled from
the mind of the Beastmaster and is also signed.
Dimensions: 1 9/16" W x 1 1/4" H x 3/8" Thick
The
artist holds a BS in geology and presents this unique personal
sculpture not only as "green" but as a statement against ecodamage. It
was made from scrap from a 1901 ornamental stone cutting operation and
if allowed, will slowly degrade by sequestration of CO2, the only
natural stone to alter in this manner. Minimal care will prevent this
alteration, however.
By request and for a nominal fee, I will
write the "life" story of this particular piece of stone, illustrating
the "living" nature of this stone's amazing genesis, beginning over 300
million years ago before multicellular life was known to exist on Earth.
From: Metal Ivy Jewelry Designs

Good Morning,
This morning's post is brief, as we introduce Pantone's Color of the Year for 2016, there are two.
Basically they are pastel pink and blue. Nice, but not very designer friendly, unless you design for children under five.
Although there is a gemstone Rose Quartz that can be found occurring naturally as a very soft pastel pink, it can also be dyed to a uniform deeper color. The Alchemists Vessel carries a limited selection of Rose Quartz Jewelry.
This bracelet has sold, but as example of the very soft pink color of the natural stone.
Or you can always go with good old pink.
Precious Time Chainmaille Watch
Pastel Blue is a bit harder, about as close as the artist can get to it is Turquoise, or Blue Lace Agate, light blue Czech Glass beads in colors like "aqua" or "ice blue".
Blue Lace Agate Sterling Silver Earrings
2016, is going to make for interesting color combination and jewelry design.
In hope you have enjoyed this brief look at next year's favorite colors.
Thank you for stopping in and having a look. Don't forget to stop by the shop and see what is available. Looking forward to serving you this year and next.
