Latest update... |
Handmade unique Jewelry, as it may have looked about a hundred or so years ago! Many of the brass parts in our jewelry are made with dies that date back to the turn of the 19th century. Some of the findings and stampings we use are rare and hard to find and most of our pewter items are handpainted, so you can be pretty sure you will not see your new jewelry on each and everyone you meet. Our high end, more elaborate, jewelry pieces are made in just the one original design. We do not have an automated shopping cart on our site so if you want to order something, just send us your order in an e-mail to the address info @-sign at our domain unicorndesign.se (click here for e-mail link) and we will contact you as soon as possible. Please read our page Terms of Sale before placing your order, there you will find answers to the most common questions we often get regarding payment and delivery. |

Vi får även inspiration från vår vilda natur. Nedan till vänster ser du hängsmycket Varghuvud med klo. Det här smycket finns även att beställa med ett björnhuvud eller ett örnhuvud. I mitten har vi ett hängsmycke i form av en mycket naturtrogen älg i solitt sterling silver. Älgen är beställningsvara och den är ca 19 x 19 mm i storlek. Längst till höger visar vi ett set glasmarkörer med jaktanknytning. Det består av sex öppningsbara ringar som man fäster runt glasets fot och varje ring är dekorerad med sex Swarovski-kristaller i färgen Jet. Motiven är alla olika; Överst från vänster: Vildsvin, Gräsand, Räv. Undre raden: Hjort, Bössa och Älg. Berlockerna går givetvis också att beställa som örhängen eller varför inte fler tillsammans på ett armband eller halsband. |

2013-01-09 Just nu arbetar vi med att uppdatera vår hemsida, vi har många nya smycken att visa, både handmålade i tenn samt smycken i sterling silver och brons. Nedan kan du se ett par exempel på smycken vi sålt under våra marknader före jul. De finns med andra ord inte kvar, men går att beställa och förstås också i andra färger än rött. |

3rd of July 2010 |
20th of June 2010 Sadly, we made a very short appearance at the Trosa Fair this year. It was just too windy that day, and we had no way of using tent pegs when standing on asphalt. We will have to look into solving that for future outdoor fairs. |
10th of April 2010 Finally, we have some great news; we have THREE brand new charms. You are very welcome to order jewelry with them, even though none is advertised here yet. Send us a picture of your pet and have its portrait painted on our charms. |
The first is a three-dimensional Chihuahau that really looks like a live one. It is much smaller of course, only 19 mm wide and 15 mm high. |
A pair of handpainted earrings with our new Chihuahua charm. |

23rd of March 2010 A whole month has passed. On Saturday we will attend a rabbit show in Tierp. |
24th of February 2010 Late this afternoon we had the saddest news; Nix, our rabbit modell for our new lop-ear rabbit charm, was one of the casualties in the roof cave in accident in Nyköping. Rest in peace, little Nix, together with all your brothers and sisters. |
You will never be forgotten! |
A small black Netherland Dwarf was today the last rabbit rescued from the cave in. All in all, 1100 rabbits have been saved and about 240 have been found dead. The rest of the rabbits are listed as missing. These are miraculous figures, but still a small comfort for those unfortunate owners whose rabbits have been killed. Our thoughts and deepest sympaties go out to you all. |
23rd of February 2010 The latest news from the caved in roof accident in Nyköping is that more than 100 rabbits have been saved alive and reasonably well today, three days after the accident. |
20th of February 2010 We wish to express our deepest compassion to all of you strikken in some way by this horrible accident, and of course most to those of you who don't yet even know if your rabbits have survived. Our hearts go out to you. |
19th of February 2010 We have so much looked forward to coming to the Swedish Rabbit Breeder's big show in Nyköping on the 20th of February but sadly, we can't. We will not be there due to sickness, we have flu in the family and do not wish to pass that on to our customers. We hope to see our rabbit oriented customers some other time. |
29th of January 2010 |
19th of January 2010 Most of our updates are among our dog pages. More new breeds and many new jewelry pieces to look at. |
24th of December 2009 Now we look forward to a new year and to the big pet fair, Husdjursmässan, in Kista the 3rd - 6th of January 2010. Please read more about it on our page Scheduled Shows, see link on left menu. |
15h of December 2009 We are a little tired now after Hund2009 in Stockholm. We saw so many wonderful dogs and met so many nice people. This year we had more people then ever before in front of our booth, where we, among other things, showed our new series of jewelry made of sterling silver, bronze and pewter. Beautiful, breed true, jewelry and jewelry parts with almost every breed of dog there is. Including our picture glass cameos, we really can make jewelry with every breed and mixed breed there is, as those can be made with any picture of your choice. |
7th of December 2009 The lop-ears are here and we have already recieved some orders for them. They are so cute, both handpainted and in silver or gold colors with their sparkling crystal eyes. Contact us with your order, you too. If your item is ordered too late to make it to you in time for Christmas, we will send you a pretty gift card to give the recipient with the promise of your gift. That would almost make it two gifts, instead of one. |
16th of November 2009 Some very good news is that we now can offer jewelry with, for us, brand new dog breeds, among them Saluki, Basenji and Borzoi. |
We do not have all new pages ready yet but they will be very soon. Until then, enjoy the picture of this wonderful pewter brooch picturing a happily frolicking Saluki. This dog is not yet sold and it is just waiting to be transformed into a handpainted portrait of your own dog. If you own a Saluki, that is. We welcome your order! |
6th of November 2009 |
|
More dog jewelry in sterling silver and bronze ca be seen on our Dog Breeds pages. For those interested, we have one Chinese Crested set in bronze for sale, that is, one large head for a pendant/necklace and two small heads for earrings. We also have one pair of small Pharao Hound or Podenco charms in bronze. Both these items can be ordered for handpainting. We will shortly show another series of beautiful dog jewelry, pewter castings for pins and pendants with many breeds made by artist Cindy Conter. And some lovely Arabian horses, too. All these items can be ordered handpainted. We will be back with more about this new line later. Last weekend we attended a guinea pig show in Kallhäll in Stockholm. It was lots of fun and we met a lot of piggies with their very nice owners. This coming Saturday we will be in the Old Trade Fair in Sollentuna, attending a rabbit show. Read more on our Scheduled Shows page. We still don't completely trust our outgoing email so if you don't recieve an answer from us within two days at the most, please write us again and we will answer you from another address. It seems this problem is more difficult to fix than we could ever imagine and we do apologize for the extra bother. |
20th of October 2009 We seem to have email-trouble again. We are getting emails from customers, wondering why we haven't answered their emails. I can assure you we have, we answer all emails. If you haven't heard from us within two days at the most, please write again and we will answer you from another address until we get this taken care of. Thank you for your patience and understanding. We apologize for the extra bother. |
4th of October 2009 We got a new lop-eared rabbit sample, or rather, we didn't get it, seeing the picture was enough. Very disappointing it was. So it's back to the drawing board, or its equivalence, for our rabbit and we do hope the next sample will not be so long in coming. More updates to our dog list pages. Many of you are asking us why there are no prices on those pages, and that is a very valid question. The beautiful American dog jewelry pieces we have recently started advertising are just too new for us, we do not have a price list from the seller yet. As soon as we do get a price list, we will of course let you know all prices. |
25th of September 2009 Many of you ask about our new lop-eared rabbit charm and want to know when it will be ready for ordering. We have recieved one sample that was not what we wanted and expect another next week. If that one is what we are all hoping for, then it shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks before we have them here. So yes, they will be in time for Christmas. Thank you for your patience. |
6th of September 2009 We have had two more shows, a dog show in Vallentuna and a trade fair here on Ekerö. Just now, we have no more shows scheduled until December. |
18th of August 2009 Our Dog Breeds List is fast becoming a popular page. To make it easier to fint it, there is now a link to it on the left side menu. |
14th of August 2009 Time for this year's dog show in Nyköping. Last year we got drenched so we are hoping for better weather this year. If you can, please come and visit us at Rosvalla Sports Field this weekend. Welcome! |
7th of August 2009 Some new earrings have been added in both the Store and in the Gallery. |
15th of July 2009 The rest of this week, we will spend in Mariefred at the yearly medieval fair. If you can, come and see us. Welcome! |
12th of July 2009 |
21st of June 2009 At last, our email is in working order, too. Quite a lot of messages have gathered in our in-boxes but rest assured we will answer them all. Thank you for your patience. |
20th of June 2009 Our site is back online but sadly not our email. |
14th of June 2009 The medeival fair at Hågelby Folkpark and the fair at Trosa are both things of the past. During both fairs it rained and was much too cold for the season. We really hope the weather will be nicer in Mariefred in the middle of July. |
1st of June 2009 As usual we will be celebrating the Swedish National Commemoration Day in Hågelby Folkpark in the south of Stockholm. Please read more by clocking Scheduled Shows on the left. |
22nd of May 2009 We have had email trouble again. This time we have lost all emails sent to us on the 20th and 21st of May. If you sent us an email during one of these days, please resend it. Thank you in advance. We are sorry for the extra trouble. |
20th of May 2009 We now have a list of the various dog breeds we can make as a jewelry theme. Find the list here. |
30th of April 2009 Today we celebrate Valborg Night in Sweden. All that dreadful winter darkness is gone for this season, spring is here and soon there will be summer. Big bonfires are lit all over the country and then there is singing. Beautiful old spring and summer songs, sung by choirs and sometimes there is community singing, too. |
We wish you all a very nice Valborg Night! |
27th of April 2009 Unicorn Design is in the process of having its very own second custom charm created. This time it is a lop eared rabbit. To find a cute model for our new charm, we announced a little contest on the forum Kanin-Net. |
This is Nix, the winner of our contest. His facial expression in this picture is priceless. Nix got an extra large carrot and his mum will get the very first pair of earrings created with the new charm. Congratulations! |
