Jewelry Friday

Part of our costumes (or lack there of...) in La Traviata consists of really cool jewelry. I asked the costume designer Sanna Nyström where she had found it, and she said she had bough most of it at a shop called WOS. So of course I had to check this place out! WOS was launched in 2012, is run by Jenny Widing and Ulrika Stöllman, and has a physical shop in Stockholm, as well as a web shop. Their vision is to be able to offer an oasis of accessories, and also to be a stepping stone for unestablished avant-garde design. Currently they have around 80 designers and artists working for WOS, creating unique pieces of different materials. Although you find everything from bags and sunglasses to art here, this jewelry post will of course be about their jewelry! To see everything else WOS has to offer, just follow this link!

When I first saw the beautiful jewelry made by Jo I was transported to an old, mystical place... She calls her brand PILL Jewelry - made from sweet fairytales and dark dreams, and her - all handmade - pieces combines an nice mixture of old strange photos, bugs and other obscure things. Here are a few of the pieces you find in her web shop, but she also makes custom made things if you crave something special!

I met Jo at Burleskloppis (The Burlesque Flea Market) a few weeks ago, and there I bought this Big X-Ray Bat Necklace from her. I love bats so wearing an actual x-ray of this fantastic creature around my neck feels great! There are many, many more wonderful pieces in Jo's web shop, so go ahead and visit her place of wonder - you find it here!

Macabre Gadgets

Just happened to stumble over a very cool jewelry designer - Macabre Gadgets. The handmade pieces in their collections have this blend of beauty and the macabre I love so much, and they are created from diverse materials like pressed coral, pressed bone, industrial polymer plastic and inlaid precious and semi-precious stones, pearls and metals.

"Macabre Gadgets is inspired by the infernal aesthetics of the dark side, which is inherent by the world view of mankind at all times, epochs and styles, from the early Middle Ages to progressive postmodernism."

Some favorites of mine:

Coral crown ring. Pressed coral, cultured pearls.

Bifacial skull ring. Polymer plastic, amethysts.

Raven skull ring, black. Polymer plastic.

Carpathia collar, black. Polymer plastic, silver, caoutchouc.

Black snake earrings. Polymer plastic, silver.

Octopus ring, white. Pressed coral, cultured pearls.

Caprinae notebook. Leather, paper, polymer plastic.

The Great Gatsby and Tiffany

I think many of you who read this blog have waited with anticipation for the movie The Great Gatsby to start showing this year. The movie takes place in the 1920s, and will be full of amazing costumes - and jewelry! These jewels have been created by none others than Tiffany & Co. The good news are that these sparkling pieces haven't been made for the movie alone, but are part of Tiffany's The Great Gatsby Collection, and can so be bought! Together with the company's release of it's latest Blue Book Collection - which is also inspired by Art Deco and the Great Gatsby - anyone (who can afford it) can feel like the ultimate flapper girl! Here are a few of the pieces from the collections.
