These bracelets and earrings are a blend of authentic Victorian Era postcards or marbled end papers from antique books. Some use typewriter keys to create a secure, crisp setting for the bits of 100 year old postcards. The keys are then securely sealed and fastened onto the jewelry you will see here. These are very labor-intensive pieces and the shape of typewriter key I use for them is rare.
These wonderful pins also utilize antique postcards, but can showcase a larger scene. Sandwiched between two pieces of glass and sealed with a textured copper metal tape, you may also see bits of old lace, ribbon and maybe a bit of the writing on the back by the original sender from 100 years ago. Antique buttons are applied to the front surface to complement the scene within.
