A while back I posted about the funky jewellery created by a talented young woman, Mallory Knox; you can find that post here. Knox sells her work at Lovesick, and through the website she shares with another artist. She will also do custom pieces.
I've been a devoted Elizabeth Taylor fan since I was a little girl. With her violet eyes and raven hair, she was the walking embodiment of all that was glamorous and beautiful, at least in the eyes of a skinny kid from a small town. I thought she would be a perfect subject for one of Knox's pendants, so I made a request, and behold, the finished product:
I left it up to Knox to choose what photo to use, and happily, the one she selected is one of my favourites, depicting Taylor in her "Cleopatra" days. I can't wait to wear it!
LOVE IT! I'm a Liza fan - and Mallory fan too! Can't wait to see you wear it. Sarah xxx
ReplyDeleteDamned auto correct - Liz, not Liza - though Liza's alright too, especially in Cabaret!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great custom piece. I love this style and it will go great with your raspberries and chocolate ensemble. ;) I know, I can't stop mentioning it.
ReplyDeleteThat is a fabulous pendant. I love Liz too, I think she is possibly the most beautiful woman who ever lived! (I just typo-ed "loved" which would also be quite appropriate!) I'm going to check out Mallory's work now. xxx
ReplyDeleteI love it!! What a truly stunning and unique piece! xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks Ms. Fashionista!!! I always enjoy making custom pieces...even though sometimes it takes awhile ;)
ReplyDeleteOh glory be, what a beautiful piece!!!! I can't wait to see it on you, I just know it's going to look fabulous on you:)). Thank you so much for pointing me to Mallory, I haven't purchased anything from her yet, but by god it's tempting now I know I can get something custom-made:)). Have a wonderful weekend my friend and thank you for all your kind words xoxoxoxoo

ReplyDeleteI walked by a used book store yesterday and in the window was a hardback book with that exact on the cover - of course I thought of you. What a gorgeous pendant!
