Vintage Cloisonne enamel flutterby earrings

Vintage Cloisonne enamel flutterby earrings

These hoop earrings are lush.

Depicting flowers and butterflies, they are beautifully made, super quality, and perfect to complement any outfit.

Very on trend, the colours are vibrant, just what we need after a very monochrome winter.

Butterflies are amazing insects aren’t they? They taste with their feet, and drink from muddy puddles, some butterflies live for only 2 – 4 weeks.

Romantic creatures featuring in ancient myths and legends, their beauty and fragility are renowned.

These stunning earrings will last a little longer than 2 – 4 weeks, and you can treat yourself here!

Sparkly Starfish Brooch (SOLD)

Sparkly Starfish Brooch

Lovely vintage brooch, looks fab on a navy or white blazer, and perfect as a shawl pin.
Made from aurora borealis rhinestones, it is very glamorous… and romantic:

“There was a storm. And thousands and thousands of starfish were washed up on the shore.
And there was this beautiful little girl was running down the beach and she was picking up the starfish, she was frantically throwing them back into the ocean.
When I saw her doing this I said to her, ‘Why are you doing that? You can only save a few before they die, what difference does it make?’
And she looked at me and she said, ‘To THAT one, it makes a difference.’ To THAT one, it makes a difference, that little girl said.
And she was right and at that very moment she was making a difference for that starfish and she was making a difference for herself too because she was connected, to that starfish.
And that’s what life is all about, connecting. In fact that’s the only time you’re ever alive, really, is when you’re connecting.”

You can buy this beautiful piece of jewellery here….
