“I Love my Hat!”
This lady loves her hat … and why not? It’s a sparkly vintage brooch that’s been repurposed.
The face is approximately 3″ tall and 2″ wide, and hangs from a 20″ cork cord with magnetic clasp.
The pieces in the The French Ostrich Wearable Art Face Collection are conversation-starters … and not your average, mainstream jewelry. This piece of wearable art is “one-of-a-kind in series,” meaning I’ve crafted the same face numerous times, but each one varies a bit from the next: different makeup or hair, perhaps, varied chain, or unique embellishments.
Each creation in the French Ostrich Wearable Art Face Collection is crafted from clay, hand painted, and baked 2-3 times.
This circle and bar necklace sports a 1.5″ hoop with a 1.25″ bar dropping in the middle of the hoop. The crystal chaton offers just a tiny amount of bling.
18″ fine textured cable chain
This necklace is part of my ever-popular “Le Cerceau” (circle or hoop) collection. The circle is a universal symbol with extensive meaning, representing totality, wholeness, and timelessness … and more.
Wear this necklace alone for a simple look, or layer with a longer necklace.
Choose from all gold, all silver or mixed gold and silver.
You will undoubtedly make a statement when you wear one of these long, boho beaded necklaces with a stunning hand-dyed silk tassel. The knotted beaded necklaces are made from semi-precious beads and are 34″ long. Each tassel is approximately 6″ long. The silk is painstakingly hand-dyed by an artist using the most luscious colors, from ivory to aquamarine, avocado green, plae blue, and more.
I’ve crafted each tassel using this gorgeous, yummy silk, luscious bead caps, and various beads.
Wear this necklace alone, or layer it up with 1, 2, or 3 shorter necklaces for a true bohemian flair. This necklace will be at home with jeans and a tee-shirt or your little black dress.
Fun and featherweight! This cork necklace sports three cork beads: the natural cork center bead is 1″ in diameter and the black beads are approximately 3/4″.
This is a “wear-with-anything” necklace: a tee and jeans, any V-neck or crew neck top. Have fun with it. Crafted with a natural cork cord, you can wear this necklace with almost any color.
A great accent piece made of sustainable cork, this necklace is perfect for travel: It will quickly change up an outfit, it’s lightweight, and will take up very little space when you pack.

Sold OutSorry-Sold Out!Part of the French Ostrich “Voyageur” Collection, this cork bracelet converts to a choker. That’s right! You can wear it two ways: wrap it twice around your wrist for a bracelet, or wear it as a choker. Each natural cork creation is adorned with a bead dangle and Czech crystal rondelle.
Crafted with travel in mind, the Voyageur Collection was designed for those who love to travel – and especially those who travel light. However, its appeal extends beyond globetrotters, making it an exceptional addition to any jewelry collection.
The natural color of the cork makes this bracelet / choker truly versatile. It’s a great piece of jewelry to take with you when you travel. Not only is it versatile in that you can wear it two ways, but it’s super-lightweight at less than half an ounce, so it’s very easy to pack. The simple magnetic clasp means easy-on, easy-off.
When you wear this piece as a choker, consider layering it with other necklaces. And, when you wear it as a bracelet, it looks great stacked with other cork bracelets, or with metal bangles or chains. Or, keep it minimalistic and wear it all by itself.
French Ostrich genuine cork is eco-friendly and imported directly from Portugal.
This convertible bracelet/necklaces are 16″ long.
Please note: the last two photos in the gallery are for illustration only to how these pieces look on.

Cork jewelry … always a conversation-starter!
Sold OutSorry-Sold Out!This black cork necklace set makes a statement, while being easy to wear. This set was the brainchild of one of my customers: She saw both necklaces on display and had the idea that they’d look great together … and she was right!
Each black cork necklace is adorned with a tube bead, one filigree and one plain. Both pieces are further embellished with two beads on either side of the tube bead.
This cork necklace set will quickly become your “go to!” Crafted with basic black cork cords, you can wear this necklace set with almost any color. It’s the perfect accent piece. Imagine it with your white button down, or any V-neck or crew neck top in your closet. Or even your little black dress!
Crafted from sustainable cork, this necklace set is the perfect jewelry for travel: It will quickly change up an outfit, it’s lightweight, and will take up very little space when you pack. Wear both necklaces together, or one at a time. (And, because it’s a set, you get a great price for two cork necklaces.)
The necklaces measure just over 18″, and have a substantial lobster clasp.
This cork choker is a yummy chocolate brown and is stunning all on its own. But when you add the upcycled pearl and crystal necklace or one of the sterling silver pendants, your necklace will become a real eye-catcher.
How to transform the choker: You may wear the choker by itself, or the pearl and crystal necklace by itself. Or, you can attach the two for an “uber-statement necklace!” Or, choose any of the sterling silver pendants, to which I’ve added a ring so it will easily slip over a small ridge in the magnetic clasp.
Please note: The listing is for the cork choker + the vintage pearl and crystal necklace for $145. You may add any, all, or none of the sterling pendants for $35 each.
If you enjoy unusual jewelry, then you just may want to add this fabulous creation to your shopping cart!

This dainty gold layering necklace is so light, you’ll forget you’re wearing it. Crafted in gold and black, this necklace can be worn alone when you need a little something, or layer it with one or two longer necklaces.
I’ve filled the 1/2″ bezel with black polymer clay that has just a hint of gold sparkle in it, and then created an impression in the clay with a piece of vintage filigree jewelry. The bezel hangs from a fine soldered chain with a lobster clasp.
Please note: since the pendants on these necklaces are handmade, there are variations from necklace to necklace. Some have deeper impressions than others. Some are a bit more organic than others. No two are exactly alike. One will be chosen for you.
Purchase the matching dangle earrings from The Brioude collection at the same time as you purchase this necklace, and I’ll gift you with a $5 coupon good towards your next purchase.
This assemblage necklace is a one-of-a-kind-statement-making stunner. Crafted in copper and aqua, it’s truly spectacular.
The definition of assemblage is “a group of collected things.” In the art world, assemblage refers to putting together a group of objects into a unified whole. Several years ago, I was absolutely captivated by assemblage jewelry and have been making it ever since.
The patinaed butterfly is the focus of this creation; it’s surrounded by components that are richly plated with copper: four flowers with faux pearls at their centers, a leaf and various other copper components. The assemblage hangs from a rolo chain complemented with faceted Amazonite beads. A toggle clasp makes the necklace easy to put on and take off.
Be mesmerizing …
