You see, the first time I met Tippy, it was to bring some Harlow goodies to her shop; she was going to sell them; that was supposed to be it! Well, add talks of David Bowie [all who know me KNOW - obsessed!], Labyrinth, all things vintage & antique, Michael Jackson; it was so surreal - like meeting my long-lost twin! She loved my work, I loved hers; we took to each other instantly - a bit narcissistic, seeing as we're similar to the point of surrealism here - and a wonderful friendship/business relationship began... ever since she's been making a home for my jewels, hairpieces and pretty things where they're happy, healthy and placed in the most beautiful of settings. Here's a small segment of a wonderful shoot she did, featuring one of my favorite necklaces - it's simple yet for some reason, I love it much more than any other piece I've created and she did it justice...
"A Willesden Green Cabaret"
**The necklace featured is part of Harlow In Chains' "NuWave Glamour" Collection: Giant Antique Chandelier Crystal Drop w/Peridot Accent; solid, smooth Hematite Cabochon surrounded by channel-set rhinestones. Vintage Trifari gold-toned Links connect to another vintage silver rope chain by way of two 1940's vintage Square-cut Chandelier prisms [salvaged from a Czechoslovakian chandelier!]; long chain accents the back, or lays to the side of the neck ending w/a vintage Peridot Chandelier Octagon and completed with a solid 22kt Gold drop. [Accent piece shown to side in photos].
The necklace, by itself:

Xo Tippy! Can't wait to see what you do next!
