Grey or gray? It doesn’t matter what matters is that grey is one of the most popular and versatile colors and its shade “slate grey” is quite rich and warm.

Slate Grey Gifts for Him and for Her

Double Wrap Braided Leather Bracelet

You can never go wrong with slate grey gifts – they are appropriate for both men and women and make for a thoughtful present that will probably get a lot of use.

I love this collection not only because it features one of Sivani’s double wrap leather bracelet but because it is the perfect gift guide that offers a great mix. You can find a present below for the sophisticated business guy (the three piece suit) or for the sporty guy (the winking owl t-shirt) or for the edgy one (the sterling silver ring). How about a triple infinity scarf for mom or vintage slate grey driving gloves for your wife? It’s all below!

Thank you, Holly from TheRottenRooster, for giving us this wonderful mix of slate grey gifts for him and for her.

I am so excited to share this stunning collection of 16 rustic Spring decor and clothing ideas not only because it features one of my newest necklaces, the Feather and Leaf Leather Necklace, but also because it’s simply breath-taking.

16 Rustic Spring Decor and Clothing Ideas

Feather and Leaf Pendant Necklace

From jewelry and clothing to home decor and kitchen essentials, this collection has something for everybody.

Grayed jade and dusk blue are two of the most popular colors this Spring / Summer 2013 and this a great tribute to these two gorgeous color hues. Combined with the rustic feel of vintage travel, there is something quite nostalgic and romantic in this well curated selection.

If you are into rustic spring decor and subtle nostalgic pastels, then I hope that you will enjoy this feminine collection as much as I do.

Take a moment and look down at your wrists. You probably don’t see what you should – a leather bracelet. What do you actually see? What’s on them at the moment? A clunky watch? An old, tired bracelet? Another lackluster accessory of some kind or another? Or maybe – nothing.

Wrap You Wrists in Style with Rope and Leather Bracelets

Triple Wrap Leather Bracelet by Sivani

Every day, we use our hands and arms for a variety of tasks, from typing at our computers, to choosing a bottle of wine at dinner, to pushing a lawnmower, to opening a beer. Why not thank your wrists for all their hard work with a much needed makeover? May we suggest – a wrap leather bracelet or a rope bracelet from Sivani.

Feeling rugged and outdoorsy? To meet your needs for a quick layered look, there is no better choice than a leather wrap bracelet. Simple and versatile, our triple wrap bracelet is comprised of three coils of classic braided leather cord and subtle handmade, corrugated tube beads of .925 sterling silver — a distinctly masculine look that blazes a new stylistic trail from its American West original.

Wrap You Wrists in Style with Rope and Leather Bracelets

Stacked – Triple Wrap Rope Bracelet by Sivani

Another, more contemporary piece, such as the “Stacked” wrap bracelet can add a splash of color. The non-traditional material — rope, used for running rigging of a sailing vessel — definitely will give you the so much wanted “WOW” effect. Let’s face it, the combination of bold colors — lime green, black with red and yellow, red — and the fact that not one but two strands of rope wrap around your wrist three times, make this rope bracelet an essential must-have for the modern man with an edge.

Sivani’s wrap bracelets come in so many styles, materials and colors, it’s hard to wear just one. From leather to rope, and sterling silver to gemstones, your wrists are sure to grab attentions in one of these original, handmade creations as you go about the business of looking awesome each and every day.

Little Floral Leather Bracelet
Sivani Bracelets and Necklaces   Reminders of Friendship

Little Floral Leather Bracelet

Sivani is synonymous with the summer. The uniqueness of Silvia Nikolov’s designs is the perfect complement to the wide range of scents, sights, and life events associated with this special time of the year. Weddings, when done right, reflect the values and personalities of those being joined together in marriage. So, if you’re a Sivani bride, groom, or guest, why not make our jewelry a part of the special celebration?

Sivani Bracelets and Necklaces   Reminders of Friendship

Leather Necklace Horseshoe Pendant

Sivani bracelets and necklaces make for fantastic reminders of friendship for both bridesmaids and groomsmen. These are gifts they will truly cherish – to have and to hold, as a matter of fact. For bridesmaids in a country wedding, we suggest our little sterling silver floral bracelet. This lovely piece is dainty and particularly striking in red. For a more urban celebration, the silver wrap bracelet with citrine is recommended. Your team of maids can even make it a long, fun necklace for once the
dancing starts!

The non-traditional groom might be well suited (no wedding pun intended) to the men’s leather necklace with horseshoe pendant. Horseshoes are a symbol of good luck—and what guy couldn’t use that on his wedding day, even as a protection against flubbing the vows? And wise indeed is the groom who hands out our leather bracelet with sterling silver anchor before the ceremony to symbolically thank his buddies for their constant support and friendship.

Mothers of the bride, cousins of the groom – there’s truly something for every wedding guest from Sivani Designs. Have a great time shopping our friendship bracelets and necklaces, and be sure to browse our
other posts for my style inspiration. Happy celebrating!

How to Rock the Safari Look with Leather Bracelets and Necklaces

Sterling Silver Filigree Leather Necklace

Sivani’s leather bracelets and necklaces make a natural complement to this season’s safari-and-desert-inspired trends. While Sivani offers stunning pieces in leather for women, such as wrap bracelets and long necklaces with gemstones, our men’s styles take the explorer-man look to a whole new level of ruggedness.

Designed by our in-house artist, Silvia Nikolov, Sivani’s leather necklacewith sterling silver filigree pendant for men is a study in contrasts. You can customize this piece to include earthy brown leather, or desert-night black leather. Either looks distinct and manly against the .925 sterling silver pendant, with its bas relief sculpted filigree design. This high-contrast piece is sure to grab attention in an outfit composed primarily of light, low-contrast materials. Handmade and put together using only the highest-quality materials, this piece is sure to be a constant companion on all of your worldly explorations.

 

How to Rock the Safari Look with Leather Bracelets and Necklaces

Simple Leather Wrap Bracelet with Sterling Silverexplorations.

For a little something to look at while you’re waiting at the stoplight on your motorcycle, car, or—depending on the occasion—camel, we suggest our simple men’s leather wrap bracelet in sterling silver. This is a luxury piece for the man wishing to express a polished modernity alongside a Wild-West, devil-may-care attitude. This is a versatile bracelet, that can in fact also be worn as a necklace by men and women alike. Wrapping an average of six times around the wrist—or two times around the neck.

Sivani’s leather bracelets and leather necklaces are the best way to liven up a safari look. We know you’ll agree.

Long Sterling Silver Chain Leather Necklace
Sivani Springs into Leather Necklaces and Bracelets   In Mint Condition

Sterling Silver Chain Leather Necklace

Mint is emerging as one of the hottest and most wanted colors this season. Fashion designers have colored the runways in minty clothing collections and we, at Sivani, have decided to keep up with the latest color trend and offer some minty leather necklaces and leather bracelets on our web runway. Luckily for the savvy fashionista, Sivani has created a few limited edition leather necklaces and some long desired leather bracelets that can add a little minty freshness into your wardrobe.

First, there is the sterling silver chain necklace with mint in a beautiful smooth leather. This is a desirable, limited edition necklace that lays long on the chest. It features a structured Italian sterling silver chain, which lends a weighty contrast to the light green leather from which it suspends. The silver has undergone a specialized oxidation process to achieve a metallic shimmer and natural variation.

Sivani Springs into Leather Necklaces and Bracelets   In Mint Condition

Minty Chocolate Leather Necklace

The infinity bracelet in mint leather is a delicate piece. Its design is inspired by Silvia Nikolov’s clients.Says the designer herself: “I’ve had so many requests for a bracelet with the infinity symbol, and I finally designed one.” This light and airy bracelet features sterling silver beads made by hand and sources from hill tribes. This bracelet, with its promise of eternal affection, makes a wonderful gift to a loved one or special friend. It comes in a variety of sizes and colors, and includes a stunning sterling silver button clasp for effortless wearability.

The minty chocolate leather necklace is also a limited edition item. Measuring at 28 inches long, it is at once sophisticated and uniquely earthy with its brown and mint color scheme. At the end of the knotted mint leather, delight in the necklace’s finishing touch: three deliriously depth-filled and handmade beads of glass. This item is perfect for wearing by itself, or try it with gold or sterling silver chains.

Braided Leather Bracelet

The mens jewelry revolutionSome would argue, that jewelry is designed for women in mind… not for men. I tend to disagree with that.

Although, I have my women’s jewelry line, I have the passion for creating masculine statement pieces for men. I get inspired every day by the look of my husband – by his simple yet elegant style, by the surgical precision in putting together his outfit.

Most men care about their looks more than women do. But their secret of looking at their best is not how much stuff they put on but how little. No man with style overdoes it to achieve perfection. There is a purpose for every little detail – there is a reason behind choosing every accessory.

A man with style can appreciate the simplicity of the accessories he picks because he has the confidence that it is him who is the star and the accessories are just there to stress that confidence.

To solute that confident man, I am designing a new line of men’s jewelry that bears simple but effective sterling silver details combined with the bold and luxurious look of genuine leather and gemstones.

Sterling Silver Necklace with Cluster Tourmaline Pendant

New Sterling Silver Jewelry Collection Sneak PeakWhat are the colors that come into your mind when thinking about the winter holidays?

Yes, that’s the question I was asking myself before I started this collection. Although I was trying to be different and come up with different color palette, I can’t help myself thinking about white snow, dark brown-gray, moisten from the snow soil, green pine trees, red socks, and colorful presents and decoration.

So, I have to admit – that was part of my inspiration…

You can’t have a better metal to work with, that represents that coldness from the winter, than the sterling silver. Its high-polished surface, is wonderfully reflective like the virgin untouched surface of ice.

The gemstone that first jumped out at me was tourmaline quartz, because of its light grayish transparent color and its fossil-like dark gray, almost black speckles. Another one was the opal and the aqua. Aqua reminds me a lot of a faceted cube of ice and the opal with its milky white surface reminds me of the white snow.

On the other hand, living in Florida the nice sunny weather and the always vibrant colorful nature made me create Holiday jewelry with a twist of bright and lively colors.

Therefore, next to the jewelry pieces, having the traditional colors, associated with the winter, I am placing the jewelry pieces, inspired by that wonderful sunny weather outside my window.
