    WHOO! Nice job! My eyes went straight to the bangle and the lavalier, but I'm an old Art Nouveau addict. My prejudices are showing.

    I'm always interested in charm bracelets because they tell a personal story. (The Little Mermaid and a sombrero?)

    Looking more closely, that turquoise ring is rather fabulous, too. Diamonds and rubies!

    That is interesting, isn't it? Must be bespoke because such an unusual combination.

    As much as I really love snake jewelry, I think the turquoise is my favorite too! SO striking. I would wear it in a heartbeat.

    That’s exactly why I buy charm bracelets. They’re someone’s life story. I’ve one with a flying doctor airplane and Concorde charms included.

    More of a re-find than a find. Friends of ours were over yesterday afternoon and C. and I had a look through of lots of brooches I bought years ago on ebay -- just about the last business I did on the site. I shoulda taken some photos...

    I like the kite :)

    The former owner came from Oklahoma, so maybe that’s why the sombrero and the 2 cowboy hats. I guess, at some point they visited Denmark?
