Special Occasion

Brooches, Rings & Hair Accessories & Tiaras

If you are wondering how you would wear a brooch for a formal occasion, here are some ideas:

1. On the sweater/jacket/wrap you have to wear over your dress

2. As an accent spot on your dress - i.e. in the center of a bow, at the point of a neckline, on your shoulder (or on the back, so you look good coming AND going!)

3. On your purse, as a decorative clasp

4. On a special hat

5. Use floral brooches to make up a permanent keepsake "bouquet" instead of live flowers for a bride's wedding bouquet (directions for doing this can be found online)

6. Be creative - try on a belt, in your hair, the possibilities are almost endless.

Our rings are frankly fake, just for fun, and are adjustable.

If you are needing multiples (for example, for bridesmaids for a wedding) please let us know and I can find out if the needed number is available. We normally do not stock more than one or two of any particular style but can often obtain what you need by special order. Please remember, special order items are not returnable, and occasionally a special order fee to pay for shipping from the manufacturer may be necessary on smaller orders.

Red oval and red pave body with black rhinestone eyes, and fabulous wings of red, red aurora borealis, pink and even a few hyacinth (orange) rhinestones, topped with pink rhinestone antennae.

Description: Clear Rhinestone Vintage Style Bow Brooch - Although this looks like it might have been done 80 years ago, this is brand new. 2 5/8" x 2" at widest points, and about 1/4" deep, with dimensional loops, all clear rhinestone set in a cut-out design. Slightly antiqued silvertone setting also lends to the vintage feel. So romantic, and excellent for any way you would like to wear a brooch, or also in a brooch bouquet.

Item: OP4-684

Price: $16.50 US

••••••••

Description: Large Floral Brooch & Earring Set - Long and slender, this curving brooch is actually somewhat delicate looking for its 5 1/4" x 2" size. Matching pierced earrings are relatively small at 7/8" in diameter, making an excellent balance. These pieces use clear aurora borealis rhinestones for the centers of the flowers, with clear pave set petals underneath. Goldtone setting, the brooch has two pinbacks to secure upper and lower sections nicely. Wonderful on a lapel but use your imagination for other great places to use this.

Item: OS4-683

Sorry, SOLD!

Description: Fuchsia/Pink/ PinkAB Rhinestone Rose Pin Pendant - This is a little larger piece at 2 3/8" in diameter and approx 3/4" deep. The darkest color, fuchsia, is towards the center, with rose pink and blush pink used the closer to the ends of the petals that you come. Borders of all petals are done in pink aurora borealis. Black enameled top, dark hematone finish. This can be worn as either a pin or a pendant. Weighty, you will probably want to use this on a heavier fabric.

Item: OPP1-309

Price: $22.50 US

••••

Description: Unlimited Pave Brooch - Unlimited is the manufacturer for Christian Dior and sells under their own brand name. Some of the best quality costume made today. This rhodium plated piece is set with all clear crystal rhinestones and measures two inches in diameter. While I purchased this style specifically for people looking to cover gathered areas on eveningwear bodices, this would work equally for normal pin placement, used as a focal point on a belt, evening bag, special hat, whatever

Item: OP4-001

••••

Description: Zebra Stripe Ring - Clear and black stones alternate in rows on this domed ring. 1 1/4" in diameter; clear stones are flatback glass stones, black stones are standard rhinestones. Stones are paste set to black thermoplastic. Silvertone shank is open in back to conform to most finger sizes. Whether you like animal print designs or simply like black/clear combinations, this is a fun ring for parties and special occasions.

Hair Accessories and Tiaras

••••••••

Description: Floral Tiara with Single Pear Rhinestone Tiara - Flower shapes are set with single rhinestones on each petal and a single rhinestone at center, with more clear rhinestones along the bottom and on graceful curves radiating from the center point. A single large pearshaped rhinestone sits, inverted, at the center top. Silvertone setting, this has self-bobby pins for attaching to hair. 2" at top, tapering down to 3/8" at each end. 8 1/4", this goes about halfway around the head. Excellent price, and perfect for a bride, prom, or if you are wanting to celebrate National Tiara Day (yes, there is such a thing.)

Item: OT2-800

Price: $24.50 US

Sorry, SOLD!

••••••••

Description: Ornate Clear Rhinestone Tiara - A graduating design of curves and a probably stylized floral design around clear rhinestone pearshaped stones, this measures 7/8" at the sides and 1 1/2" at the center. Silvertone setting, 11 1/2" to ends, 7" of which is all rhinestone set. This has end holes for inserting bobby pins for attaching this to head, though it does not have any bobby pins attached. If you are a fan of Downton Abbey on PBS, you may notice that this has a similarity to some of the headpieces worn by the actresses in the series. From Marielle.

Item: OT2-802

Price: $54.50 US

••••••••

Description: Floral Glass Pearl and Rhinestone Headpiece - While there are probably different ways this could be worn, I think it would work well for a French twist or similar type of hairstyle. This has larger flowers on one end, and smaller on the other, but I don't think that you necessarily have to wear it with the larger flowers higher. This has holes on the end for bobby pins for attachment (though bobby pins are not included). This curving piece measures about 10 1/2" long, and is 1 3/4" at the widest point, tapering off to less than 1/4" at the smallest stone. There is also a 3/4" wide comb behind the flower at the end on the left in the picture for additional stability. Silvertone setting, glass pearls are white, all rhinestones are clear.

Item: OH2-801
