vintage darling
based out of portland, or, anna vintage jewelry is a limited edition jewelry line that is made from authentic vintage materials. with the exception of the ear wires and some of the clasps, every single piece anna uses in her designs is entirely, 100% vintage.
anna hunts through antique stores and estate sales for special pieces, although the majority of her finds come from old costume jewelry warehouses where she can uncover small runs of vintage dead-stock chains and baubles to incorporate into her work. anna also uses leather in her designs that is recycled from antique leather gloves, an old and luxuriously tactile accessory, transformed into designs that are current and wearable.
poetic impression
the names of anna’s designs are each inspired by the work of a chosen poet, bringing a quality of depth to each piece. her first collection’s names were borrowed bits and pieces from the works of e.e. cummings and has been followed by writers such as spanish poet, federico garcia lorca, john burroughs, the 19th century nature essayist as well as from classical native american poetry.
