This “one of a kind” vintage assemblage necklace features an upcycled gold filled pocket watch that no longer worked so I applied a transfer (Michelangelo Hand of God) to the porcelain face, added some vintage watch movement parts and sealed the top with jewelry grade resin. The back of the watch is quite lovely with a beautifully detailed embossed design. I’ve hung this watch pendant from a Victorian watch pin which has a hook located on the back side. If desired, the pocket watch can be removed and the necklace can be worn without the watch pendant or you could hang a pendant of your choosing.

Greetings~ I'm Julie and I am owner, designer and creator of all JryenDesigns unique, mixed media and vintage assemblage jewelry designs. I am an avid collector of estate and vintage jewelry items and a self-taught jewelry designer. I have collected vintage jewelry for numerous years spending countless hours seeking out the unique, interesting, collectible pieces from flea markets, yard sales and antique malls that I re-imagine into new wearable designs. I have a soft spot for the Victorian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco eras and use these elements in my "one of a kind" creations. Each JryenDesign is hand crafted by me with the utmost attention to detail and quality. View all posts by jryendesigns
