Remember the Brookly-based fashion brand Octopi? Although the shop closed last year, one of the designers, Sarah Welsh Elliott, has started her own vintage jewelry website called Welsh Elliott Modernism. Sarah Welsh Elliott has worked in fashion and costuming in New York and Los Angeles for many years. Her greatest passion is jewelry and she has a great eye for what’s hot!
Welsh Elliott Modernism is a collection of vintage jewelry hand-picked by Elliott. She also blogs about designers that would be of interest and you can read reviews by other people who have bought the designs you are interested in.
Looking through the collections on Welsh Elliott Modernism, I really appreciated the timeless quality of the jewelry pieces. Although the pieces are vintage, they are wearable and perfect for current jewelry trends. Her website features pieces from designers all over the world. Some of the designers include Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Ed Levin, Yves Saint Laurent, Kunio Matsumoto, Zoltan Popovits and Donna Karan.
Welsh Elliott Modernism has vintage jewelry for men and women. Items for women’s collections include earrings, brooches, necklaces, bracelets, rings, and accessories. Men’s collection currently carries cuff links and tie bars. Check out their collection at Welsh Elliott Modernism and let me know what you think!
