I do collect jewelry, and I sell jewelry. Sometimes I'll buy a piece intending to sell it so that I can then buy more expensive pieces, but then I end up falling in love with them. My husband tells me to list everything I buy for the purpose of selling, regardless of if I fall in love with those pieces. I have two pieces listed in my Etsy store that I am getting the biggest kick out of wearing lately. I get so many compliments on them that I'm surprised they haven't sold yet!
The first is a vintage milk glass and metal floral brooch that also has a bail on the back to be worn as a pendant. It is so cute, springy and lovely! It weighs almost next to nothing and doesn't appear from any one particular decade. I'd guess it to be in the 1960's but it works with modern styles so easily! (You can see the listing here.)
The second is also a brooch and pendant combo. This one has the tiniest cameo set in the middle of an abstract-ish five petal flower and accented with small rhinestones. It too is so modern looking but with that vintage flavor, I'm not sure why it hasn't sold either! (You can see the listing here.)
I certainly hope you can see why I love these pieces! They've got so much personality. Both are unsigned, but both have prong-set stones and lovely detail work.
