Antique Watch Fob Jewelry
From as early as the 16th century until World War I, when the wrist watch became popular, one would carry their timepiece on chains or ribbon, tucked into a pocket or attached to a belt or chatelaine. Marie Antoinette even had a pocket watch that was attached to a blue silk ribbon which was intertwined with diamonds…oooh to see that long lost piece of history!
Watch
chains were weighted and dressed up with charms called “fobs” and they could be
merely decorative or functional. Many
were designed to be used to stamp wax seals with the wearer’s personal monogram
or family crest.
I love working with
these bits of history and most of the pieces in my collection date to Victorian
times. Combined and connected together,
they form a beautiful and wearable way to carry a piece history with you as you
go about your day. What interesting
stories these pieces from the past could tell!
My newest designs have been listed on my website today and if you share
my passion for true antique jewelry, please come see these treasures HERE. Merci mon amies ~ xoxo Joy

An Edwardian Jewel...
Just listed this stunning necklace on the website. Hard to find antique Edwardian era (circa 1900) silver and paste double-sided locket. She is in beautiful condition with her original hand painted photo still inside.
I have no idea how she ended up in the London England antique shop I purchased her from, but she now resides in a Florida jewelry studio until she travels to her next owner, who I hope will find her as special as I do. xoxo ~ Joy
