New Vintage Cameo Pin: Victorian Mourning Jewelry Swooping Birds

You will definitely look as though you raided your great grandmother's jewelry box when you wear this vintage cameo pin swooping birds.  

Very Victorian in style, this brooch is handmade with vintage elements.  A wonderful vintage black glass cameo portrays a beautiful young lady in a flowing gown, surrounded by swooping birds.  I've set the cameo into a vintage brass cameo setting, then dangled it from a genuine vintage brass ribbon pin.  

This looks very much like Victorian mourning jewelry to me.  It would make a romantic gift for your beloved and would be especially wonderful for someone who enjoys history.

If you like this vintage cameo pin, then be sure to look at the coordinating necklace and earrings that are also available from Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry.
A beautiful jewelry set!  Visit Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry today for more vintage element jewelry pieces.  Gift box packaging and free standard shipping with each purchase.

White Flower Necklace Romantic Vintage Style Jewelry

Amen of Nature Flower Necklace from
Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry
Here's the quotation by Oliver Wendall Holmes that inspired this necklace:

The amen of nature is always a flower.

Beautifully hand carved flower is the centerpiece of this romantic handcrafted necklace. Exquisite carving details in this bone flower;  it very much looks like ivory. I've attached the flower to a wonderful brass repousse floral station. Accents include delicately hand carved bone cylinder beads and pretty vintage brass beads. Very Victorian necklace would make a wonderful jewelry gift for a friend or yourself.

Art Nouveau Romantic Turquoise Crystal Vintage Style Necklace Gift

Art Nouveau Beloved Turquoise Crystal Necklace
from Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry
This handcrafted Victorian vintage style necklace features an absolutely fabulous vintage brass repousse Art Nouveau style woman pendant.  I've dangled an aqua turquoise aurora borealis finish crystal teardrop that projects lovely sparkles.  Necklace is composted of matching crystals and vintage brass beads, including some wonderful vintage brass filigree pierced ovals.  Such a romantic and feminine jewelry piece.   Note: photos do not truly capture the beauty of this necklace and the photography lighting makes the sparkles of the crystal teardrop look more blue than the other crystals.

A very romantic gift idea for that special someone whom you call beloved.

Shop now for best selection at Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry.  We offer handmade artisan jewelry for those who welcome love and romance into their lives.  Gift box packaging and free standard shipping with each purchase.

Feels Like Spring


Finally the ice and snow have melted! We'd gotten about 2" of ice and sleet with a 7" topping of snow and, in spite of temperatures finally above freezing, it took a few 60 degree days to dispatch the majority of that treacherous stuff! It certainly made venturing out to my studio risky business.


I've been busy with new ideas and flying things. Lovely vintage brass repousse birds and bees, plus some sweet Art Nouvou fairies. The latest dilemma is an old one: sets or no sets? It never fails that when I offer "sets" as separate items... people want the sets. If I offer them together... someone wants only one piece of the set. So, I list them on my site separately and try to note if there are coordinating pieces.


Today I have photographs to take - of fairy and honey bee pieces. Plus some vintage jewelry that I'll be offering on Bittersweet Collectibles. I'll post a fairy piece later this week, I promise!
