Hope you are having a wonderful day! I wanted to share with you some new jewelry favorites of mine! In the past few months I have gotten extremely into antique and vintage jewelry. It all started when I was searching for my something blue for my wedding. I knew I wanted a piece of jewelry, but because my accent color was red I didn't want a piece of jewelry that clashed with my bridal look. I searched and searched and finally found a beautiful bracelet on Etsy through a shop called VintageVelvetBox. The bracelet is sterling silver and has the tiniest blue sapphire in the middle of a flower. I thought this was such a simple yet unique piece for my big day!
After purchasing this bracelet, I was on a hunt to find some more antique bling. I continued my search through Etsy, and found this stunning diamond ring from 1910 at JandHjewelry. This was a bit of a splurge, but it was a wedding present to myself. (Jon purchased a new Xbox, so we are even!) This ring is pure elegance :)
Since I do not have unlimited funds to splurge on antique jewelry, I searched my own collection and found this bracelet that I bought years ago at an antique shop. I believe this was only $10.00, so total bargain!
Last month I went down and visited my Aunt and was fortunate enough to receive these gold opal earrings which are a family heirloom **swoon**.
Do you own any antique jewelry? Did it belong to someone near and dear to you? If so, let me know in the comments below! I am a sucker for a good sentimental story ;)
