Jewelry and Ornamentation


Here is a lovely crocheted piece by freehippie which I found on Etsy.

Do hippie crocheted bracelets qualify as jewelry? Maybe not, but I sure do like the look. Anyway, jewelry is one of the last things I think about when putting together an outfit. However, when I see beautiful decorative pieces, some designed by women artists, I think "cool"! I would like to support their artistry by wearing one of their designs. What I admire most in a piece of jewelry is craftspersonship and durability. A good piece of jewelry has to last without showing too much wear and tear. And if the piece is given as a gift, what I most admire is the thought and the story behind the piece.
This is the Marni Horn Disc available on Net-A-Porter.com.
