I'm into gunmetal jewelry. Sounds kind of tough, doesn't it?! Well, this jewelry is kind of tough and commanding. I like it because it is somber and turn of the century (ca. 1890s). Used mostly for pocket watches, coin cases, purse frames and the like, gun metal jewelry and accessories seem to be quite rare. So if you spot a piece of jewelry with a dull metal that looks like it's made form a barrel of a civil war rifle, grab it up and add it to your collection!
