Nouveau Maiden

Layers of loveliness - patinaed charms, antiqued metal, opalized crystals

My latest passion is using verdigris patinaed charms in my antique style filigree pieces.

I love anything Art Nouveau and couldn't wait to create with this beautiful maiden charm!

Filigree is fun to work with - you just stack pieces and glue or wrap them together.

I added a few opal flatback crystals for some subtle glow.

Thank you so much for your comments. I just found out that a pair of earrings I made with these same verdigris charms will be featured in the fall issue of Jewelry Affaire!
