Heavy choker style necklaces like this one from Monet- have been selling very well in auctions on eBay for me. For some they seem a bit gaudy- but for some jewelry collectors the more dramatic the choker the better and showing off a great neckline is sexy.
This set is an amazing signed Whiting and Davis Cameo demi parure featuring a necklace and matching clip on earrings.
“Amazing” you say… What’s so amazing about this vintage cameo set?
Move the pieces around and let them catch the light just a little.
I think the iridescent features of this cameo set makes it look really pretty and out of the ordinary. What do you think?
I am really not a Bakelite girl and I don’t wear pierced earrings often… but I would wear these out on a red hot date night. How about you?
These vintage earrings are signed Sarah Coventry. They are called “Galaxy” and are from the 1963 catalog – collections. There is a brooch that comes with it to make a demi parure.
I listed this on eBay as a Gothic Halloween Lantern- but actually this super cool pendant came with a certificate of authenticity that stated it was the Third Century Lantern Pendant and is an accurate and authentic,miniature re-creation of the Third Lantern, dedicated by President Gerald R. Ford at the Old North Church in Boston, Massachusetts on April 18, 1975.
Yeah whatever… the buyer agreed that it was the sweetest little gothic Halloween lantern pendant ever!
I really love vintage Goldette jewelry. I can generally spot Goldette a mile away- whether it is signed or not. This piece is not signed, but it has the definitive Goldette charms that were so popular then as well as now. For the record I have a favorite charm- that’s the snake with the egg in it’s nest. Unfortunately- this slide bracelet doesn’t feature that charm… I’ll have to point it out the next time I see it.
