A Toast To Hip Jewelry. Decant Her Necklaces By Femme Metale.
Jewelry design company Femme Metale makes much of the kind of jewelry we've seen in typical trendy contemporary jewelry stores lately. Tattoo, Asian, Goth and rock n' roll inspired pieces that include daggers, hearts, swallows, crosses, buddhas, koi and the like.
But what they do have, that separates them from the myriad of hand-cast sterling silver jewelry presently saturating the market, are some fabulously clever and original necklaces that are a take-off on the sterling nameplates or tags one sees hanging upon a liquor decanter. Hence, the Decant Her Necklaces.
The solid sterling silver pendants engraved to look like the classic Victorian ornate nameplates bear double entendres like "complex" and "lush" as well as simple funny adjectives such as "drunk", "sober", "wino" and "boozer".
The 10 necklaces in the collection each measure 17" in length, are strung on sterling silver chains and fasten with a sterling silver toggle clasp. Each costs $260.00 USD. You can purchase any of them here.
About Femme Metale:
The creative force behind Femme Metale is Leslie Homan, a former model, Hollywood makeup artist and wardrobe stylist. Creativity has always been in Leslie's blood. She has been designing her own clothes and accessories since she was very young. With many high school and college jewelry classes under her belt she decided to put this knowledge and her love of fashion to work. In January 2000 with a passion for fashion, Rock & Roll and precious metal, Femme metale was born. Her focus on high quality, always original designs and exceptional customer service have made Femme metale the leader in “sterling silver jewelry that rocks”.
Femme Metale has graced the manicured hands of Christina Aguilera, Kate Moss, Sheryl Crow, Kat Von D, Brittany Murphy, Avril Lavigne, Angelina Jolie, and the Divas of the WWE to name a few. A darling of the press Femme metale has been featured in the following top publications: Teen Vogue, Cosmo Girl, ELLEgirl, Lucky, Cosmopolitan, J-14, Twist, W, Vibe, Lemonade, In Style and many more. Femme metale jewelry has appeared on America's Next Top Model, Miami Ink, L.A. Ink, The House Bunny Movie and Dante's Cove.
Leslie is continually designing fresh new sterling silver jewelry to adorn the world's style leaders and trend setters. With over 300 completely original items there is something for everyone.
Minor imperfections are part of hand crafted jewelry and I like to call them "beauty marks". The "beauty marks" give each piece a one of a kind feel. I do not use machines to cast my jewelry and each piece is polished and finished by hand. All of the assembly is done by me in my studio.
