Memories Collection

I search old warehouses, auction houses and estate sales for inspiring focal points to use in my Amethyst Lobster Unique Jewelry creations. I often find antique or vintage jewelry pieces that need little or no repair work. I offer them here, in the Memories Collection. I believe that treasures like these are often portals to the past. Your memory, or someone else's, they hold the power to transport you to another time. Please note in this collection are used, vintage or antique pieces and may have some wear or condition issues.
