Rich and Glam



A collection of vintage rhinestone jewels are rejuvenated in this one of a kind long necklace that I call Great Gatsby...my modern version of the rich and glam from 1925. An assortment of pearls are all wire wrapped in oxidized brass and hammered brass connectors are used to link these together. An antique gold filled heart locket dangles from the rhinestone pendant. This couture heirloom piece of jewelry would look lovely with that little black dress or a white shirt and jeans.Measures 31" in length.

  1. Great necklace, Judy! I can see the ear clips (the top parts) of the earrings you showed in your last post in there - great repurposing!

  2. Fabulous job! I really like the pale pink of the pearls with the hammered brass links. The locket and filigree bale just set it all off beautifully!
