Clover Jewerly
Do you love clover jewelry, and want to either start a collection, or add to your existing one? Then you've come to the right place!
Clover jewelry is most often found in either brooch/pin or earring forms. You will also sometimes see clover pendants as well.
And although 4-leaf clovers tend to be favored, due to their good luck, you can also find 3-leaf clovers. And besides, isn't it more fun to have both kinds?
The jewelry comes in gold-tone, silver-tone and enameled. Various costume jewelry manufacturers made them, so you're even likely to find some signed clovers as well.
So here they are, a field full of clovers for your browsing and buying pleasure. Enjoy!

Vendome Brooch and Earrings
A Vendome brooch and earrings set is something hard to find. While there are pin and earring sets for Vendome, they are far less common than, say, necklace and earring sets.
I've talked about Vendome bracelets before, as well as Vendome in general. Below are some of the wonderful brooches and earrings costume jewelry that Vendome created.

Ladybug Vintage Costume Jewelry
Ladybug costume jewelry is a popular theme among the manufacturers. These tiny insects evoke thoughts of Spring and Summer, and naturally go well with the flower collections that were so prevalent in the seasonal offerings!
Pretty much all the major costume jewelry manufactuers made ladybug jewelry at some point, and pins and brooches were by far the most common sighting. However, you will sometimes find one of these ubiquitous insects trundling along a pendant, too!
Also keep in mind that you'll find these pieces of jewelry as both signed and unsigned. I've most often seen ladybugs in jewelry by Coro and Sarah Coventry, but you'll find others as well.
Below are some examples of ladybug costume jewelry currently available for sale. Remember, you can click the links for a larger photo and more information.

1928 Costume Jewelry
1928 costume jewelry just barely squeeks in as vintage jewelry. While they have been around since 1968, they also still continue manufacuring jewelry today.
1928 Costume Jewelry Brooch, Circa 1980's
So provenance plays a big role with jewelry from this costume jewelry manufacturer. If you know approximately when the jewelry was purchased, you can get a better idea of its probably worth.
In the case of the booch pictured on the right, I purchased it from a friend who purchased it in the mid 1980's, so I know this particular piece is at least 20 years old.
Signature Look
The signature look for 1928 jewelry definitely has a Victorian influence. And look on the back; you'll find some etched swirling that is characteristic of this manufacturer.
1928 is a family-owned company, founded by Melvyn ("Mel") J. Bernie in 1968.
