Fresh from the Forge: Battle Ready Jewellery with a Deadly Disposition
An arsenal of wearable weaponry for those who prefer their accessories armed and dangerous
By: The Lace Ledger Staff
Someone's been raiding the armoury, and we have a few suspects…
Though, these instruments of destruction have undergone a chic transformation. Medieval menace meets modern mischief as swords are miniaturized for necklaces and daggers dangle from unsuspecting earlobes. Even the flail and the scythe have found second life in fine accessories.
Once bound for the battlefield, these miniature marvels have found a much more fashionable calling. We've rounded up some heavy artillery for those who prefer a little danger in their dressing. No combat training required.
Black Tie, Black Heart: Gothic Jewellery for Grand Entrances & Late Nights
Old-world glamour meets haunted romance in a collection made for your most anticipated engagements
By: The Lace Ledger Staff
The invitations are arriving, the champagne is chilling and the impending holiday party season is giving us every excuse to dress extravagantly.
Don't expect your grandmother's pearls, unless Grandma had a few skeletons in her jewellery box... Here, spiders are rendered in exquisite silver and skulls find themselves in sophisticated company. Victorian mourning hands lend a sentimental touch, while Art Deco influences bring a little Jazz Age decadence to the proceedings. Every detail has been carefully considered, including those that might raise an eyebrow across the dinner table.
These are the finishing touches that become the main attraction. Each exquisitely crafted piece has a story to tell and a remarkable talent for starting conversations, with enough elaborate detail to reward a second glance. A crowded social calendar provides plenty of excuses to indulge in jewellery worthy of the occasion.
