Favourite pieces - Rhinestone Necklace
Of course, the fact that I got the necklace from my mother makes it special already.
My mom used to have a big jewellery box, lined with red velvet, filled with a mix of many styles - 70s earrings, 50s watches, delicate gold ring, bold silver pendants. This necklace is shiny, sparkly and beautiful, I already fell in love with it as a young girl (pre-teenage already). Being generous and carefree, she gave it to me and I was always looking after it as if it was a really precious pieces (maybe it even is).
She got it on a fleamarket in Amsterdam in the late 60s, but it might be some kind of Art-Deco? I don’t know. It still sparkles in these rainbow-colors that I never find in the usual rhinestone-jewellery, plus it look great with my heathergrey sweaterdress.
