    Mochia and mocha made a comment on your bracelet, that it looks quite magical and conjured up images of elves in the Lord of the Rings, so perhaps you could start thinking up words associated with those subjects. For example when I think of elves the word "ethereal" springs into my head and also I think of the Queen of the fairies, who is called Titania, there are hundreds of words ( that you may, possibly consider to be equally unsuitable) but it be might worth considering the magical qualities that your jewellery has and googling keywords associated with those qualities which may bring some joy to your quest.

    Is Evan your name? It's very pretty. How about:

    Jewellery by Evan
    Essence of Evan Jewellery
    Evan's Jewellery Designs

    In my mind the last two are too generic - handmade designs tells me nothing about anything, apart from you're selling something that is handmade (not a bad thing, but it doesn't tell me what else to expect). Precious Gems I feel is too generic and would expect you to be some sort of gemologist.

    Thinking about Evan's Jewels (and this is probably just me) sounds a little clunky. It doesn't quite flow and roll off the tongue for me. Also - I'd be careful when using this - I know it's not quite the same, but a quick Google of Evan and Jewellery pulls up EvansJewelry.Com as the number one page.

    Jewellery Art - nothing in particular against it, but I don't feel anything for it.

    It's hard work coming up with a name for anything, so please do not be put off - it's worth the hardwork to get it all right - and I may be completely wrong in my opinions. It would be easier if we knew more about your work, style and inspiration though.

    Ok, this is just my opinion (which might not mean much......I was the only person in the western hemisphere who thought that 'evanescence' was a good idea lol) but I think that they all sound a bit bland. Now, split the phrases and then it think it gets quite interesting - a more minimilist approach:
    - 'precious'
    - 'gems'
    - 'design'
    - 'handmade'
    - 'art'
    - 'jewel'

    I think they all sound as if they have some style and gravitas.
    but like I say, it's just my opinion.

    Instead of Handmade Jewellery try Evanmade Jewellery (Evan Made Jewellery. Evan-Made Jewellery) ...

    or something like Silver by Evan, a bit like Light by Conran? I suppose it that would depend on what you will be making though - it wouldn't be a great description if you were predominantly using gold! and just to note - a quick domain check for the website shows www.silverbyevan.com and .co.uk are available.
