Friend of my youth








Here are some jewelry pairs that I've found over the course of the last six months. These long-lost friends are now reunited in my jewelry box, most of them destined for the shop. I am always surprised when I find a jewelry double, mostly because I consider most vintage pieces to be "one of a kind"- unique in their craftsmanship and usually rare. This is obviously not always the case! These doubles offer me a glimpse of the past, when jewelry like this was available at a shop downtown (or in a catalog) in a variety of sizes, colors and designs.
