No. Good reasoning, but not particularly close. The answer is connected with jewellery, mind you, but then, what isn't?
The second line can be read three different ways that are all valid.

Ok, a wild guess, but... Carcharoth? Give'm a hand and he bites it off? And he's called the Red Maw.

I am very confused by the fish on land. Can you explain?

Fish (shark) = Carcharodon (the Great White Shark).
or reverse the shark's nickname, "wolf of the sea" to get "shark on land" = wolf. or Carcharoth's other name, Angfauglir = jaws of thirst. You had to get the type of fish first. I was going to just put "shark", but I actually thought it would be too obvious! It's really hard to know how other people will see things. "Blue" is less cryptic, referring to Charcaroth's progenitor Draugluin, which means "blue wolf". (Maybe he had blueish fur? )Over to you!
