Silver Spoon Jewelry Adds a Special Touch to Christmas Stockings


Cuff bracelet is $63
Great price point, free shipping and complimentary gift wrapping.

Buy on my eBay site.

A few years ago I discovered a company in Los Angeles called Silver Spoon Jewelry that makes great quality jewelry fashioned after silverware from the late 1800's and early 1900's.  It fit in with Pearl's Cottage design and decor so I started carrying the line.  It sold quickly and women were very happy with the feminine look and the length and size proportions.

I have restocked my inventory to have it available for the 2013 holiday season.
Alicia Necklace is $56
Pricing
Necklaces are $56
Rings are $32
Bracelet with charms are $33
Bracelet cuffs are $63
Specialty bracelets are $84

Shipping is free and complimentary gift wrapping, for any occasion, is available.
Charlotte Necklace is $56
The hearts and crosses hanging from rolo or double link chains are perfect for dress up or dress down and they have enough weight to the design that they become a statement piece.
Abigail Cross Necklace is $56
Delilah Cross Necklace is $56
All necklaces come in adjustable 16-18" lengths, pendants are varying sizes and all are silver plate that may need a periodic rub with a silver cloth to keep them shiny.

Rings are super popular with women and girls beginning around age 16.  My daughter likes to wear one on her thumb and two more on other fingers.  The different designs look great mixed together and they are comfortable to wear.  Because the rings are adjustable, they can fit on any finger or thumb.  Be careful that the rings aren't pushed and pulled too much so that they keep their nice round look
Hazel Ring $32 - our best seller
Consider Silver Spoon Jewelry for your holiday gifts.  They are the perfect size for a stocking.  Consider giving a necklace to your son's girlfriend, your best friend, to the woman in your book club, your boss, your mother-in-law, etc.  The rings, bracelets and necklaces make the perfect gifts.
Their most impressive bracelet $84

Old Jewelry Made New


When I go to estate sales I gravitate to the jewelry table and specifically the pins.  Something about the shimmer and shine makes me want to pick them up and think about the women who once wore rhinestones and furs.  Did they wear these beautiful jewels to tea, church, dinner parties, work?

In an effort to wear pins today and not look like I live in the 1950's, I turn them into pendants.  Some pins lend themselves to hanging more than others.  Last week I made this necklace with a some beaded chain, the pin, a few jump rings and a clasp along with jewelry pliers and some reading glasses since I need a little magnification assistance.


I think the finished length ended up about 22 inches.  I have worn my new necklace alone and layered it with longer and shorter necklaces.  When i visited my sister in San Francisco she said she wanted one like it, so I need to either give it to her or disappoint her since it's one of a kind.

Here are a few pictures of other pendants I have put together in the last few months.  When rigging things up, I check to see how the pin is hanging; it needs to lie flat against the body instead of side to side.  By adding an extra jump ring the problem is usually solved.  The other issue that occurs is the pin tipping too far forward. Experiment with different size jump rings to balance things.  I usually have lots of sizes on hand including extra, extra large ones.

All it takes is a little imagination. If things don't turn out quite right, I simply change whatever is not working. Next up is a bracelet made from some jet beads from two broken necklaces that I picked up for a song. Please visit Pearl's Cottage again to see what's going on next time.

I must like long pendants because I just noticed that everything posted is 22" to 36".
