Twilight Heart Necklace from Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry


This romantic handmade heart necklace is all about twilight; that part of time which is not day, yet is not yet night.  A love poem come to life in a piece of jewelry, this necklace begins with an amazing natural agate gemstone heart pendant.  Amazing striations of periwinkle blue, pale violet, pale smokey browns.  Almost like a mood ring, the colors change according to the light and background of the stone.

The necklace chain was created by hand wire wrapping silver jeweler's wire with brilliantly faceted smoky crystal rondelles and natural blue lace agate gemstone beads.  A one of a kind artisan necklace from Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry.  Perfect for your beloved Valentine any time of year.

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.

Created with vintage elements including a romantic vintage black glass cameo with a lovely maiden in a flowing gown surrounded by swooping birds. Set in a vintage brass setting.

I've combined jet black crystals and beautiful vintage brass birds to frame this gorgeous cameo pendant. Lovely patina on all the vintage brass.

This piece reminds me of Victorian mourning jewelry and would be a unique accessory for a Civil War reinactor.

A Flood of Love Vintage Roses Cameo Necklace is so Romantic

Here's the quotation - a Malagasy proverb - that inspired this necklace:
Let your love be like the misty rains, coming softly, but flooding the river. This is one of my favorite vintage cameos and my little horde is almost gone. Gorgeous white roses are raised on a dome of soft tequila sunrise color in this special vintage resin cameo set in a vintage brass setting. Lots of soft pink cherry quartz is accented with delicate fancy beads. Lovely natural patina on all the vintage brass. Incredible details and delightfully romantic. As always, a one of a kind handcrafted necklace from Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry.
