“By the way, I am in love with half of the items in your store. It's only through much control
that I don't end up blowing my paycheck on your jewellery! Although perhaps a cardboard
box as a home might be worth it... :)”
Karen W, Melbourne, Vic

| Our inspiration comes from the past, the present and the future.
The 1920s through the 1940s gave us magical pieces of jewelry that have travelled through the past. Each piece bears the mystery of a world within itself, full of history, beauty and intrigue. We are inspired by the joie de vivre of the people with whom we share our days and who light up ours. And the future ... is in your dreams.
Whatever you choose to collect, have fun with it and enjoy the beauty, imagination and creativity behind each piece in your collection.
Read our blog to find out the latest "around the world" fashion news in jewelry and accessories! (we are working on it ... to come soon!)

“By the way, I am in love with half
of the items in your store. It's only through much
control that I don't end up blowing my paycheck on your
jewellery! Although perhaps a cardboard box as a home
might be worth it... :)” Karen W, Melbourne,
Vic - Octopus Brooch
“Know I will love it as I have the other bits of treasure I have recently purchased. Love the little sparklies they contain. Unfortunately my dog has developed a taste for them also as I unexpectedly found, she now joins me at the computer when I visit your site, any bit of glitter and she behaves like a catherine wheel on speed. Rehab may be the only answer.............for both of us!” Debra O, Western Australia -
Peacock Pin
“Just a note to let you know my three
brooches have arrived and I love them. Many thanks
again. Best regards from Paris.” CAT,
Paris, France - Baby in Pram Pin
“Received the batch before last,
recently - many thanks- I'm like a kid with a toy
box! There must be 1000s of brooches on ebay, but rarely
have I ever found any as pretty, or quirky, or unusual
as yours, and most certainly never SO MANY all from one
seller! Your brooches give me as much pleasure as
my favourite thing when I was little - a big tin full of
different and colourful buttons, which I would put out
in varied patterns and colour mixes - hours of endless
fun which kept me fully immersed -and quiet!” Brenda
S, Sydney, Australia - Fairy Pin
“It wasn't so much that the world
brooch would give me confidence now, but the
extraordinary thing for me when I first discovered your
site was that 15 years ago, when I got nervous giving
talks, I would conjour up a mental image of orcas and
dolphins swimming around a blue planet which seemed
to make me feel calmer and more confident.
Then when I found your site, there it was - the image in
my head staring at me in one of your brooches! Of
course, by now I actually quite like giving talks and I
don't really get nervous any more, just a bit psyched up
which is good to come over as enthusiastic.”
Sue B, Dorset, United Kingdom - World Nature Brooch
"Your jewelry is so unique! I like
Unique!" Lynda S, Delaware, United States -

staff how thrilled I was to have received them so
quickly and in fun packaging with little butterflies and
hearts!! Keep up the great work and look forward to
buying from you again." Shel A, NSW,
Australia - Western Belt Buckle
“Received the witch broach in the
mail today. Loved it” Daniel J, Melbourne,
Australia - Witch Pin
“I may have to attend an addiction
clinic! I keep wishing you will stop selling
brooches that I love... but I know there is more chance
of a snowstorm in Queensland in January!
Henry is now too excited to
hibernate since I told him that not only his brother,
but also his sister is now coming over since this weeks
buying spree.” Suzanne
F, Tasmania, Australia – Hedgehog Brooch
“I’m very impressed with them and
your customer care. The brooch is gorgeous so will
definitely be buying from you again. I have become in a
short time an avid fan of your goods and will continue
to buy in the future because everything I’ve received is
top quality and sent quickly!!! Thanks again for an
excellent service.” Roxane P, Derbyshire,
United Kingdom - Wool Pin
“This morning I gave my boss the
cupid pig pin, she loved it! She put it on
immediately…and was delighted with it. She is a
collector of pig items. The leopard spotted cat pin I
gave to the Resource/Development Officer, who wears a
leopard dyed fur of some kind. She pinned it on her fur
coat, and it looked darling. I am a leopard print fan
myself, the first leopard cat pin I have kept for
myself. Just thought you might enjoy hearing how your
jewelry brings delight to others” Caroline
H, OR, United States - Cupid Pig Pin
"My pink earrings arrived and I'm
going to have a lot of fun wearing them. Who needs to
spend thousands? Thanks for the fast delivery and secure
packing. I'll be looking forward to buying from you in
the future". AM, Queensland, Australia -

“Dear girls, it is beautiful and I
will wear it on blouse or coat, whenever I'm with my
mates. We have one male in our art group so we call
ourselves "the arty tarts and one meat pie". Our ages
range from the 5O's to the 7O's, I belong to the younger
group, the 7O's, and loving it. I wish you girls good
fortune and health and thank you so much.”
Margaret M, Bellbird, New South Wales - Art Brooch
“The brooches are lovely as usual,
the seahorses are for my sister and her diving friends
the Stitch and Craft ones are for my sewing group ladies
and the miscellaneous are mostly for me and a couple of
friends just in case you were wondering.”
Jenni W, Sydney, New South Wales - Seahorse Brooch
