Upscale Costume Jewelry

Frances Valentine

 
I love jewelry and I enjoy having fun with it. One wonderful development in recent years has been the proliferation of "good" costume jewelry. It is not very expensive like solid gold jewelry but is not the cheap gold plated stuff that turns your skin green and tarnishes over time. This upscale costume jewelry is usually brass with heavier gold plating and a protective finish. The granddaddy was Kenneth Jay Lane whose beautiful costume jewelry has been around for decades.
