The 'Grand Tour" was a rite of passage for upper class Europeans. Women cherished, the highly sought after lava cameo, purchased in Pompeii. Pinning a lava cameo on ones blouse, provided the wearer a 'status symbol', thus, showing others she is a well traveled person of culture, and good taste.

Inspired by my first trip to Paris, I created a business focusing on a variety of French and English antiques. I love looking for treasures. I have always been inspired by history, and love being able to source pieces of the past.
My designs are made with antique accoutrements. I source and combine them with pearls or gemstones.
If you have an antique piece of jewelry, or a piece of history that you want to turn into necklace....contact me.
