This is such a striking necklace! Imagine this against white, orange, yellow, blue or Gray. The glass crystal leaf brooch is a Lisner & has not been altered due to its’ collectibility, (however I did put a drop of glue on the clasp so it won’t accidentally open & poke you while wearing). I love this sweet vintage owl pendant I acquired & the two are meant to go together. The asymmetrical chain I designed adds even more interest! Such a great statement piece!
This is a classic gold & pearl long necklace that has some edge! I used a vintage Avon perfume brooch, ( the perfume is gone but the compartment remains for you to use as you like).

Oh my…the colors! So intense and great together! I’ve used Vintage Cerulean Blue glass beads with warm glowing orange beads. My jumping off point was this vintage Fashion Time Pendant watch with the color combination transferred on paper & applied to the opposite side of watch. The watch is a wind up and is still keeping time! It is positioned upside down when worn so when you lift it to look at the time it is facing upright. This is such a striking long necklace that will get LOTS of attention!

This lovely large statement pendant from the 1980’s features inlaid shell in black on brass. I have designed a chain using light pink crystals with gold accents to coordinate with the light colors of the gorgeous shell pieces. Such an easy piece to throw on for an instant pop of wow!
Snake symbolism in jewelry has been around since ancient times. There are many opinions of what they represent: power, healing, charm, renewal, protection…etc. They will continue to be popular through the years. I took this pendant and part of the original tassel and made a turquoise chain and added details. The combination of the turquoise with the bright gold is quite striking…you will be a charmer for sure when you wear this statement piece!
This Is a collectible 1930 Kathleen Mary Quinlan Compact and the Art Deco design is great! I’ve repeated the color scheme in the chain & tassel & the celluloid links I sourced are from the same time period. The compact didn’t retain its’ original powder tray or puff, so I created a collage feature inside to add just a bit of fun detail. This is a scarce find & one you will treasure!

Vintage compact - 1 1/2” x 1 1/2”
Original tassel created with vintage links - 3”

This Ivoroid button is a so lovely. It is a celluloid button from late 1800’s. They were made to imitate ivory so most celluloid buttons from this time period fell under the label of “Ivoroid”. The other button is a wafer button made post 1920’s. I have set the shank of the Ivoroid inside this backing button to preserve the integrity of the Ivoroid button for collectibility.
