Vintage Sparkles for New Years Eve by Gail Carriger

A simple blog today, Fashionable Readers, just some of my favorite images of vintage jewelry in honor of that most sparkly of nights . . . New Years.

1883 curiasse top via The Metropolitan Museum of Art

1930 Amethyst Earrings via Christie’s

1910 arts & crafts necklace via Tadema Gallery

1925 Carter jabot pin via Christie’s

1935 double clip brooch via Christie’s

Funny how I don't like to wear much clothing from the 1920s & 1930s but I really gravitate toward that style of jewelry. I love Art Deco, although my true love is for it's oft neglected cousin, Art Moderne.

1960 Ring via Lang Antiques

1890 Pereline via The Metropolitan Museum of Art
