This gold tone locket has a 19" vintage ornate chain in which it extends down from.  The gold tone locket is vintage and has gorgeous raised relief of roses and leaves on it.  Attached to it is a vintage paste leaf rhinestone piece, which has authenticity with a few missing rhinestones in it.  I love this part about it, as it totally looks as though its always been vs. redesigned.  It is topped of with the palest of pink silk ribbons.  This necklace is one of my personal favorites.

Time for a Coke Necklace

A fun necklace...This one has a 30" chain portion which is asymmetrical.  Up one side it is a vintage silver tone twisted chain and the other side is a vintage faux baroque glass pearl and crystal combination.  Attached to this is the 1 3/4" diameter focal, which is connected to the chain portion by a really unique faux paste rhinestone element I've used as a connector.  The focal is a silver tone vintage pocket watch mechanism, two ladies watch face dials, a vintage mother of pearl hand carved mother of pearl with a vintage rhinestone center.  Off to the side is a very detailed COKE bottle.  An additional cool feature is the 5 rubies original to the jeweled pocket watch mechanism.

#5

Oceans Dream Necklace

SOLD

This is another necklace I really love how it turned out.  All of the details remind me of the beach and ocean, which I personally love.  I started with a chunky antiqued silver tone chain which I connected to a portion of antiqued brass linked chain.  This 22" chain portion attaches to the 2" diameter focal.  The focal is an  antiqued gold tone pocket watch mechanism with a grand array of layering on it.  I included a vintage sterling silver leaf which has a layered antiqued gold tone sparrow, "dream" logo, a genuine piece of coral, freshwater pearls, topaz gemstone and a tiny shell I picked while strolling the beach at Ft. Myers Beach, Florida.  Dangling from this focal is a vintage filigree antiqued ball.

Plum Necklace

$44.00

Very unique focal consists of a plum toned vintage button, which has been layered with an Elgin Nat'l Watch Co. pocket watch mechanism.  This 7 jeweled mechanism has beautiful detailing on its silver tone metal and has a 7 jewels engraving on it.  Thus, I've added 7 vintage rhinestones to represent 7 jewels and also have a vintage pink and clear paste rhinestone cluster piece attached to this mechanism.  The focal measures 1 3/4" and is attached to an antiqued silver tone chunky 18" chain.

#10

#11

Asymmetrical Layers Necklace

$44.00  SOLD

This piece is much cooler in person, as it didn't photograph well.  There are layers of gold tone chains in an assortment of chain styles and lengths which make up this fun piece.  Casual, but yet elegant it's one of those necklaces you can layer with others time and time again.  Did I say time?  The vintage gold tone pocket watch mechanism is attached on the side, thus making this piece an asymmetrical design, and has been layered with a silver tone watch face and a gold tone detailed sparrow flying on it.  The focal is 1 1/2" in diameter, and the chain portion measures 26" at the shortest layer and varies up to 37" in length for the longest layer.  A lovely one-of-a-kind design, for sure.

#12

Create Necklace

$69.00  SOLD

This "Create" necklace is a silver tone two stranded piece with a 20" (shortest strand) and 30" (longest strand) design.  There are also 4 tassels and additional chain which makes this quite a substantial piece.  The focal on this piece is created with a patinaed vintage pocket watch mechanism layered onto a reversible silver faux watch and is layered with a vintage key, a vintage ladies wrist watch dial, a silver plate crown, and the "Create" tag.

I will continue to add more pieces as time allows.
