Pirates mania has taken over the world! For some reason it appeals to more then 80% of the mass market. For some it is Johnny. For some it is the adventure. For some it is the boats. Others like to wear funny hats and walk around in a drunken stupor while complaining about rum. I’m a fan as much as the next human, however the thing that really got my feathers fluffed when thinking about the theme and look of the movies was………TREASURE! Typical girl right? Go for the jewels and the gold. When I think about Pirates, I think about aged metal with a patina from the bottom of the ocean. I think about discovered rubies, tarnished silver, pressed gold coins, copper pots and colored pearls. Worn, loved, lost, aged, solid, substantial elements that create a warm sense or history - this is my new thing; Jewelry that isn’t your typical 14K, but rather something with more character and a story to tell. I thought I had an original idea until I came across this website: http://www.subversivejewelry.com/
Go into their collections and into the “Sunken Treasure” drawer. These pieces are gorgeous! I love the layers - like someone reached into a chest and pulled out an assortment of beautiful objects and draped them around their neck without a second thought. The necklaces make a strong statement in a haphazard fashion. Fantastic!
