<p>One of the artists/artisans who provide us with the beautiful jewellery we have available on Island Filigree has been featured on another Maltese blog. Her name is Charmaine Gerada, and she has been working with filigree for the last 15 years. Fairy Filigree, the blog in question, is hosting a <a title="Filigree giveaway" href="http://fairyfiligree.blogspot.com/2010/10/filigree-artist-from-malta-silver.html" target="_blank">giveaway competition</a> featuring a lovely pendant complete with a Swarovski crystal setting.</p>
<p>Another mention of Maltese filigree on Fairy Filigree gives some <a href="http://fairyfiligree.blogspot.com/2010/01/maltese-filigree.html">beautiful examples of Maltese filigree</a>, and its development in recent years thanks to artists who strive to keep the art thriving in such a competitive climate, where generic, factory made imports are a powerful force to contend with.</p>
<p>Take a look at these lovely articles, get a chance to win a beautiful filigree pendant, and get ready for our Chrismas offers!</p>
