Featuring a 19th century shell cameo and brass tassels.
2010
This has to count amongst one of my favourite designs. It features a classic and finely carved shell cameo set into a gold setting. The tassels hanging from the focal piece were from another necklace but I added them to this piece to add some movement and interest. The chain comprises brass barrel links from an old necklace, glass beads and a reproduction vintage solid brass chain I sourced from a woman in Paris who made costume jewellery for movies.
This piece has SOLD (though some days I wish I had kept it!)
