Chinoiserie Chic Faux Bamboo

Island Essence Bamboo Bangle Bracelet

Faux bamboo is a classic in chinoiserie decor. I also love jewelry that incorporates this elegant and timeless design. I have found a wonderful collection of faux bamboo jewelry that is also very well priced.

The Seashell Charm Bracelet

Mermaid Tears Seashell Charm Bracelet 

 

I have always loved charm bracelets. My mother wore one loaded with charms she had picked up from my parents' trips all over the world. I have been looking for one with a seashell motif for here in Florida and finally found one I love.

Queen Victoria loved charm bracelets and was instrumental to their popularity. ElizabethTaylor and Joan Crawford also helped fuel the interest and popularity of charm bracelets.

Enamel Jewelry

Enamel Bamboo Bangles

Enamel jewelry is a bit of a passion of mine and I collect new and vintage. My favorite motifs are bamboo, animals, and seashells. I have a large collection of "vintage" J. Crew, Kate Spade, and Kenneth Jay Lane. I am also always on the lookout for new pieces to add to my collection.
