My
obsession with snake themed jewelry is
endless...so I was thrilled to recently learn that New York City vintage jeweler
Doyle and Doyle has collaborated with
Anthropologie in offering some fabulous options culled from it's collections. Aren't these Victorian era snake rings amazing? And, I love that Anthropologie explains
a bit of the history behind such beauties...
If snakes aren't your thing, there are some other really lovely pieces, such as these two gorgeous vintage estate rings.
The idea of owning a piece of jewelry with a bit of history behind it, is so appealing. Taking statement jewelry to the next level as conversation piece... (not to mention great "ice" breaker!)
the snake ring is so amazing!
ReplyDeletesome really beautiful rings! Love number 2 and 3
ReplyDeleteThese are so uniquely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteoooooohhh..... I'll take the purple vintage estate ring! xo
ReplyDeleteLove the vintage estate rings!
ReplyDeleteJewellery with history is so chic, and like you love victorian snake pieces. My Grandmother had quite a few
ReplyDeleteMy mother had a really cool gold snake bracelet in the 70's that I loved! The rings are fantastic and a great price for something so fun!
ReplyDeleteYou know how I love a statement ring!! :) These are amazing..that amethyst one would make me very happy!! Ice breaker, is right!!
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more - you know how much I LOVE knowing the back story. And I've always loved wrapped snake rings! What a fun collaboration.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally "charmed" with estate jewelry and so agree that something with a story is worth owning! Love that purple ring!
ReplyDeletei love a vintage look to just about everything, including jewelry. while snakes are not my thing, i'm loving all of the other choices. how cool to pair with anthropologie. that store is the bomb! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou hypnotized and charmed the pants off of me...in the last two pieces, that black one is hip and square! Niiiiice :)
ReplyDeleteStunning! Anything with a bit of history is more interesting...and these are beautiful, too. Great find.

Really like that last ring. I sell vintage jewelry (even have a snake bracelet in my shop right now) so obviously it's my thing, I love it and most of the time you aren't going to run into anyone else wearing it. Thrilled Anthro is doing it, of course it's them - always so chic.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the second one! How unique!! I'd take the last black one too!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

My most prized piece of jewelry is a silver snake ring that I picked up for a cent in Rome. I can't get enough of it. I love the first ring; the spirals are perfect!
ReplyDeleteOh so beautiful and fun!
ReplyDeleteLove that first ring! And that they're all gold! :)
ReplyDeleteI can understand why you'd be obsessed, but snakes freak me out just a bit too much. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll take the black ring instead!
I'm normally really not a purple lady, although I do love my birthday the amethyst...but I think you have rubbed off on me because I cannot get ENOUGH lately and that ring is just fab.
ReplyDeletei hate snakes, they scare the crap out of me but I wouldnt mind snake jewelry

I love snake rings! I had one in high school but lost it. All the boys thought it was the coolest thing. I really really really want one again. I love that first one!
ReplyDeleteThese are all stunning -- love the first one! I love cocktail rings because they're definitely great conversation pieces.

Loving #2...fabulous! Yes, jewelry with a story is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI am dying for a vintage Cameo ring...you might just have convinced me I must have an estate piece :)
ReplyDeleteNo, no snakes ARE my thing! Love these, and if I didn't just get a gorgeous Melinda Maria ring for Christmas, I'd probably buy one! XX!
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I love snakes too! I have a lot of vintage jewelry in my collection, my favorites are always the rings. I'd love to be the owner of a chic snake ring like that.

Wow these are gorge Sue. I love the first one, as well as the one with the purple stone. Totally unique and fab!
ReplyDeletexo,

Love all of these...actually my mom just gave my sister and me some of her old jewelry. I love it b/c it has so much meaning and history behind it.
ReplyDeleteThe ring in picture #4...classic
ReplyDeleteDiggin' the snakes! I have a pair of bracelets...these rings are beautiful though!xo
ReplyDeleteI have a snake ring with a ruby eye (my birthstone) but my snake phobia is such that I can't even bring myself to put it on.
ReplyDeleteI love snake jewelry, too! My fave earrings are little gold snakes with diamond eyes.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant teamwork with Anthro on the line.
obsessed with all of these!! XOXOXOX

ReplyDeleteWow, never thought of snakes as gorgeous until now.
