Always So Lovely / Re~Vintage
Elva Fields
When a long-standing customer contacted me recently about acquiring a portion of her beloved Elva Fields necklace collection, she explained that she was planning to retire to the UK and that life had shifted a bit, meaning she didn't have the same opportunities to wear and enjoy her necklaces as she once had and that downsizing meant they couldn't all come along for the fun.
Though I'm sad not to continue contributing to her wonderful collection, I'm excited for what's ahead for her. Additionally, I was thrilled to have a chance to see some of these designs again after they originally shipped from the studio over the last decade, most between 2015 and 2016. Some of these necklaces arrived back in my new studio in pristine condition with their original tags attached, others have been refreshed with a cleaning, a re-stringing, or an updating of a loose clasp and dull beads, and still others have been entirely reconsidered, swapping out beads or changing the arrangement of the vintage element to reflect a more updated style. They're each now ready for a new adventure and a chance to be worn, enjoyed, and loved.

Originally part of our Summer Collection in 2015, this is a necklace I decided to reconsider a bit upon its second stint in the studio. The vintage rhinestone clasp at back was originally intended for four strands of beads, and the five strands on which I had decided ten years ago now seemed a bit crowded for the design (and for the neck.) Removing one of the faceted pink coral glass beads was just what this gem needed to retain its effortless combination of sophistication, style, and feminine fun. The dazzling rhinestone bow brooch is as charming and glittering as ever, and with adjustable lengths from 19 to 21 inches, it's flawlessly flattering.
