A bracelet that is destined to become a personal favorite

When it comes to choosing jewelry -- especially anything you'll wear every day -- everyone wants it to be truly special.
Something sentimental, maybe romantic, certainly personal.
Something, too, that gets people to say, "Oooo! How cool is that! Where'd you get it?"
If it's unique, so much the better.

That's why we are charmed by the one-of-a-kind bracelet shown here. It's made of vintage map charms by Oakland artist Adjowah Brodie and a silver monogram locket from our collection of La Vie Parisienne jewelry.

It began with an idea by Lyn Christensen of Palo Alto, who noticed Adjowah's vintage map necklaces when she stopped by Timeless Treasures a few weeks ago.

Lyn wondered aloud whether we could create something custom, starting with a La Vie Parisienne locket bracelet with her monogram C. She wanted to add map charms depicting cities that have special meaning for her, including Vienna, Prague, New York City and San Francisco. You can see the results of Lyn's luscious gift to herself.

For anyone who loves to travel, or as a keepsake of your city for a friend or co-worker who is leaving, one of the vintage map necklaces or a custom bracelet of favorite places, would make an ideal gift. Give us a call or send an email and we can explore where you want to go!
