Description TA DA!!! I can't tell you how proud I am of this piece!

Hand carved aside from the posy center which came from an estate treasure - it is part of a Victorian door plate! Whoo boy, it involved a lot of sawing and filing and alteration, but I think the final product is beautiful. By the end, though, I really wish I had just carved the flower myself - it's not outside of my ability and would have been MUCH more time affective.

This piece was inspired by a friend and rockabilly talent, Miss Black Betty, lead singer of the Boston based band Black Betty and The Bad Habits. [link]

The piece also includes vintage black lucite from the 50's I can't wait to take photos on a model; it looks even better.

Lol, it's not up on the website yet... should be next week. DA just got a sneak peak!

Thank you so much for your support. In all honestly, I'm only sub girly with my jewelry too... I actually most frequently wear my anchor or the medallion necklace in the "Gentlemen's" section of the site! My big gender neutral goth bling *wink*
