So, I was hunting for a vintage necklace for another post when I ran across some truly unique vintage jewellery at Nouveau Motley’s Shop.

The shop owner, Rachael Victoria Adams, has taken old vintage watches and other pieces and restructured and redesigned them to make some absolutely fabulous modern day treasures.  Ms. Adams has extensive education and experience in the arts and a true passion that you can see in her work.  One of her necklaces was even featured in a music video called ‘Chemical Infatuation’ by the band known as Like a Storm.

Just take a look at this Victorian Brass Monkey and Pocket Watch Plate Brooch pendant.  It can also be worn as a necklace!

 

There are so many unique items made by Ms. Adams that I simply can’t stop at one.  Here’s a really funky and fun necklace made from a recycled late 1800s pocket watch:

These items are reasonably priced and would make exciting holiday gifts.  I know that I’m going to direct my husband’s attention to this post and suggest that he get busy doing his Christmas shopping!
