~ Simple Joys Soldered Jewelry ~

(Love Token Charms are on the VALENTINES page until sold out)

Use as a necklace, an ornament, a rear view mirror pendant, etc.

Many of my charms have a high quality sepia print of an antique photograph from my collection of photos from the late 1800s and early 1900s. They have a word collage on the back, which includes vintage letter or word cards, old dictionary pages, snippets from vintage holiday wrapping paper, etc. The background behind the word collage is a decorative, textured cardstock. All charms are made with lead-free solder.

Finishes: Shiny Silver, Aged Black Patina, Aged Copper Patina

  Chains: You may choose a 24" nickel plated ball chain, a length of a coordinating ribbon, or a scrolled hanger to go with each charm. Ball chains may be aged with a black or copper patina if desired. Ribbons and scrolled hangers may be substituted for the ball chain as long as supplies last.

  Sizes: 1 ½” square or 1” x 3” rectangle.

2007 REMEMBRANCE CHARMS:

The six charms in the photo above are made from reprints of antique photos.

The backs commemorate the current year of 2007 and are made from textured paper and old school number cards.

These would be thoughtful gifts for children born this year, or for those who collect a charm or ornament for every year.

Below are close ups of the six charms.

Bingo Charms

(3 available)

For these charms, I have taken a vintage 1939 embossed wooden Bingo number, backed it with the corresponding number from a Bingo card out of the same box, encased it in glass, and soldered the edges. I have used lead-free solder so that it is safe against your skin. After foiling and soldering, the piece has been sanded, then wiped down and buffed with a finishing compound. The charm measures 3/4" square x 1/2" thick.

I 25: Aged / worn copper finish, 24" nickel plated chain with aged copper patina.

O 70: Silver finish, 30" nickel plated link chain.

O 72: Silver finish, 18" nickel plated chain.
