I don't know if i'm the only one here having this problem, but each time i want to buy something i need to ask them first what designs there are.. I can imagine that that gets rather annoying for a jewler/tailor/ forger after some time. 
So.. if any jeweler/tailor/forger could post all the designs here, i'd be great (the short desc of everything is enough), public but also private if you want.
It would all non jewler etc. help deciding what they actually want and safe you the time of telling people over and over again what designs there are

BLACKLOTUS CARTEL JEWELRY
An ethereal jade ring of leaves.
Very first design.
Designer -Unknown
Seemingly touched by the hand of the Ethereal Maiden herself this silver ring seems to gleam brightly even in the weakest light. Painstakingly engraved with tiny leaves and boasting gemstones of jade this is truly a ring, which honors the beauty of nature. Upon the heart of the ring sits a chalice wreathed in vines, resplendent in platinum the holy symbol of the Ethereal Maiden stands out among the beauty of the entire ring.
A beaded bracelet of midnight black onyx.
Designer- Rilandria
Beads as black as the night sky, each made of a flawless onyx jewel, have been strung together to form this bracelet. The beads have been painstakingly etched with a small design of a flower, and inlaid carefully with silver. Each bead’s etching is in a different stage of bloom, starting with a bud on one bead, followed by an opening flower on the next bead, and progressing to further blossoming petals until the last bead, which is a fully matured version of the depicted flower. Dangling off of the bracelet is a single silver charm shaped like the graceful flower shown in the etchings
A golden necklace with opal lotuses.
Approved 107 years after the Coming of Estarra
Designer - Irryllia
Thin strands of tri-colored gold have been cunningly crafted into an elegant necklace with a dragon-claw clasp. Starting on either side of the clasp, lotus buds in various stages of blooming have been carefully crafted from black opals cascading beautifully down either side until they meet at the center of a fully blossomed flower. A tiny black opal carved into a lotus dangles from the clasp.
A delicate golden wedding circlet tipped with diamonds.
Approved 108 years after the Coming of Estarra
Designer – Irryllia
This delicate piecework circlet has been crafted to encircle the brow in a stunning sweep of gold and ends above each ear. Dainty golden chains attach there and form an intricate, open mesh over the head. The ends of the chains are meant dangle down over the shoulders and back with a few straying forward to fall over the chest. Each chain ends in a perfectly cut diamond, which creates an intriguing display of rainbow points of Typelight as the wearer moves. A single large teardrop-shaped diamond dangles from the center of the circlet to grace the wearer’s brow.
A wooden circlet with onyx antlers.
Approved 109 years after the Coming of Estarra
Designer – Ialie
This cunningly crafted wooden circlet is made to fit snugly around the head and worn above the brow. It has been constructed from the noble oak and sanded smoothly for the comfort of the wearer. Burned into the circlet are two blackened lines that border the top and bottom of the headpiece. Between them a zigzag line circles completely around and completes itself. Attached on both sides of the circlet are long, intricately designed antlers made of onyx that has been hollowed out and crafted to ensure they curve safely upwards and away from the head.
An antique platinum wedding ring.
Approved 110 years after the Coming of Estarra
Designer – Branwyn
Created by a master jeweler’s hand, this ring is extraordinary to behold. The platinum used in the band, polished to a lovely shine, has been woven to resemble forest vines, intricately winding around each other. The vines are so detailed; they sprout miniscule leaves and are adorned with tiny, sharp thorns. Nestled into the vines are two gems, a deep blue sapphire, and a sparkling emerald. These have been carefully faceted so that they fit together perfectly, almost seeming to wrap around each other lovingly, showing the eternal love this ring represents.
a jade necklace of the seasons
Approved 111 years after the Coming of Estarra
Designer – Branwyn
Meant to hang just below the wearer’s collarbone, this necklace has been formed of variegated jade carved into beads ranging from half-an-inch in diameter to a full inch-and-a-half in the center. The beads, six to each side, have been carved in matching pairs, drawing the eye to the centermost bead. These have all been strung together on a gold chain, lacework baskets holding each bead in place. The outermost beads have been carved to portray winter with deep snow banks covering the ground and the spiny branches of an apple tree reaching for the sky. The next set of beads show late winter, the snow beginning to melt, and hints of tiny buds creeping out upon the branches. The third bead set is a portrayal of early spring with tiny flowers beginning to poke their heads above the last of winter’s snow, and fragile leaves growing upon the branches. Almost hidden in the background is the image of a doe with her newborn fawn. The fourth bead set shows spring in full force, a riot of flowers on the ground and in the branches, rabbits frolicking around the fawn’s tiny hooves. The fifth set of beads shows the beginning of summer, small fruits beginning to replace the flowers in the trees, the grasses growing tall and lush. The sixth set of beads show the end of summer, the fruit being heavy on the trees, grasses showing heavy with seed heads, the fawn grown enough to be grazing near his mother. The centermost bead, largest of them all, portrays autumn, the apples beginning to fall from the trees as well as the leaves, butterflies flitting around the dying grass, the fawn showing tiny horns, sign of the grand buck he will one day be.
A diamond-capped wand
Approved 112 years after the Coming of Estarra
Designer – Branwyn
This wand is approximately twenty-four inches in length from base to tip, small enough to store easily in a pack, yet large enough to use effectively. The rod of the wand is formed of an ice-blue coloured beryl, giving the impression of being carved from an actual glacier at a casual glance. Both ends are capped with pure shimmering platinum, a strand spiraling between them along the length of the rod. Finally, at the tip, several fragile-looking strands hold a swirling multi-hued diamond in place. Etched onto the bottom platinum cap are two letters, a ‘B’ and ‘M’ intertwined.
a crown of black opal
Designer -Ialie
Sparkling with multitudes of iridescent colours, this crown is mostly crafted from black opal. Four dark mysterious spires are formed equidistantly around the circumference of the crown. Sitting atop each spire are carved crescent moons crafted from dazzling white opal. The small moons appear to glow in contrast to the opal of darker composition. Below and between the spires there are shapes, resembling five point stars that have been cut out and enable one to see through into the crown.
a necklace with a rose pendant
A beautifully crafted rose has been painstakingly carved from a sizable amethyst stone. The intricate detail of the rose contrasts greatly with its plain silver chain. The chain is incredibly fine and from a distance almost invisible, as though the rose is meant to float magically along the wearer’s neck. Rays of light shine on the amethyst reflecting luminous colored specks of pink, adding to the stones ambrosial radiance.
an etched-platinum collar
Meant to fit snugly against the wearer’s neck, this collar is most unusual. It has been formed from layers, each one carefully bonded together with the rest to form a solid whole. The main portion of this collar is a platinum band, approximately one inch wide. The band has been placed upon a strip of leather a bit larger than the metal, tanned to be as soft as possible against the wearer’s skin. The platinum, rather than being left smooth and shiny, has been etched very carefully into a vine design with tiny bits of gold inlayed randomly to highlight the graceful curves and arches. In front and two sides of this collar elegant D-rings have been placed. Each one is carved to resemble a rising sun, and a tiny ‘B’ carved into the base plate of each ring. At the back of the collar the clasp has been designed to be difficult to remove in order to ensure the collar does not slip off. Covering the clasp is an amazing mandarin garnet, its lush deep orange colour set off by the tiny ring of fire opals set around it.
a white gold and emerald wedding ring
White gold has been cunningly shaped into a perfect miniature of the Moonhart Mother Tree with careful antiquing picking out the texture of her bark. Gnarled roots crafted to wrap around the finger, form a snug fitting band. Tiny flawless emeralds have been carved into perfect replicas of her leaves and form the crown of the tree. Crushed moonstone has been suffused into the gold and carefully adhered to the emeralds to give this magnificent wedding band a gentle luminosity, as if it were bathed in moonlight even in the brightest sun.

I'm putting up helpfiles for that kind of stuff. Expect to see lists for the BlackAnvil and Merchant's Guild as soon as I find the time to do that.
