Thank you, everyone, for the thoughtful wishes yesterday. I've never been much for celebrating my own birthday. My preferred approach is usually to hide quietly until the attention passes.

That said, I've been informed that 53 is the age when carrying a Kleenex in your sleeve is considered practical, discussing your fiber intake is normal conversation, your purse contains emergency Juicy Fruit and saltines, every story begins with, "Now, I don't know if they still do this...", and every ache is simply dismissed as "a touch of arthritis."

Apparently, I'm right on schedule!

Love is at its most beautiful when it is free to be fully itself! Happy Pride, my beautiful friends! ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 🖤

Price: $85

Courtesy of Little Boxes Vintage, LLC

Highly collectible Stuart Nye sterling silver pansy brooch and matching screw back earring set, hand-wrought in Nye’s iconic botanical modernist style. The sculptural layered petals feature beautiful texturing and a soft dimensional form that catches the light beautifully.

Signed “Nye” and marked “Sterling.”

Founded in Asheville, North Carolina in 1933, Stuart Nye jewelry became beloved for its handcrafted floral designs inspired by the Blue Ridge Mountains and American Arts & Crafts tradition. His sterling flower pieces remain some of the most sought-after examples of mid-century artisan jewelry.

A timeless and increasingly hard-to-find set!

Vintage Roslyn Hoffman Copper Cuff & Convertible Pendant Brooch Set * California Artisan Modernist Jewelry circa 1950s

Price: $85

A beautifully sculptural mid-century copper set by Roslyn Hoffman, featuring a wide hammered cuff bracelet and a matching convertible brooch pendant with an organic leaf motif. The softly dimpled edges and hand-worked copper give both pieces a warm, earthy, almost woodland-modern feel.

Signed Roslyn Hoffman, from the Santa Monica jewelry studio founded by Roslyn and Robert Hoffman in the 1950s.

The brooch features both a rollover clasp and pendant bale, allowing it to be worn two ways.

Brooch/pendant measures 2.5" diameter.

\Very good vintage condition with age-appropriate patina and wear consistent with vintage jewelry, adding to its character and charm.

From the archives……

A rooftop shoot with Grey DeLisle at Pasadena’s storied Castle Green, wearing an extraordinary 1950s prom gown that eventually became someone’s wedding dress. Which is exactly why I love true vintage! The best pieces tend to live multiple lives.

By Spring 2027, my hope is to have the shop filled with one-of-a- kind vintage prom, evening, and wedding gowns.

If you’ve inherited, collected, or simply held onto any true vintage formalwear that deserves to be seen again instead of stored away, send me a message. I’m always searching for pieces with a little history and a lot of personality!

Vintage Matisse Renoir Enamel Copper Artist’s Palette Brooch & Clip-On Earring Set

Price: $65

A striking mid-century set by Matisse Renoir, featuring figural artist’s palettes in richly enameled copper. The deep ruby red enamel is flecked with gold, white, and multicolored “paint,” with sculptural copper paintbrushes threaded through each piece for a wonderfully playful studio-inspired design.

The brooch holds three copper brushes, while each clip-on earring features two. All pieces are signed Matisse on the reverse.

Brooch: 4.25" long x 1.75" wide
Earrings: 1.75" long x 0.75" wide

Very good vintage condition with secure clasp and clip mechanisms. Minor edge wear consistent with age, but no major damage.

A fabulous statement set for an artist, art teacher, or anyone who appreciates bold Atomic Era design.

About Matisse Renoir:
The Matisse mark was reserved for Renoir’s celebrated enameled copper jewelry introduced in the early 1950s. Known for vivid color and sculptural modernist forms, these pieces became wearable little canvases from the golden age of American studio jewelry.
