New Vintage Swans Cameo Necklace at Bittersweet Ridge


No, I do not have swans on the series of spring ponds that my jewelry studio overlooks.  Only ducks and geese.  However, if I close my eyes, I can imagine a pair of these graceful birds dancing on the water... and they'd look something like this!

My vintage swans cameo necklace is a one of a kind piece and I believe it is very romantic.  You know, swans are a symbol of enduring love.  A perfect totem of beauty and grace.

I tried to stay true to that spirit as I created a necklace to surround this truly vintage cameo.  The swimming swans image is hand painted on glass which gives it a wonderfully changing finish and glow.  The necklace is composed of chubby champagne colored crystal rondelle beads, along with big fat chunky wavy ovals of old ivory colored Quartz and Aragonite round gemstone beads.

What a beautiful gift for a bride, a member of any bridal party or as a very special Mother's Day gift.

Vintage Cameo Wedding Gift Anklet for a Bride


I recently created a custom ankle bracelet for a bride to wear at her wedding.  Working with one of three aunts, the goal:  an ankle bracelet that represented something old, something new, and something blue.  


The finished anklet included:
  • a vintage cameo in ivory with two roses in full bloom
  • Citrine - a gemstone representing joy - to coordinate with the wedding and engagement rings
  • four brilliantly faceted blue topaz colored crystal rondelles to represent the four aunts of the bride
  • lots of natural mother of pearl beads.
What a pleasure it was working with Patty to create a very special wedding gift which is sure to evoke joyful memories.

This vintage rose cameo necklace features a genuine antique glass rose cameo.  I have just a couple of these incredible vintage cameos and they are very special. Gorgeous roses in royal blue and gold under a glass dome. Set in a vintage brass setting and accented with a brass repousse drop of flowers. Lots of deep royal blue crystals are accented with vintage brass rondelles. Lovely natural patina on all the vintage brass. Incredible details and delightfully romantic.
