Cream Tassel Necklace

This cream and silver floral tassel necklace shimmers with unique style, perfect for dressing up a simple wedding dress or outfit. It can be made with vintage lace as shown (lace fabric style will vary depending on stock), or you can have it customized with lace from your wedding dress.  

Cut lace is placed on hand painted bridal silk and finished with crystal clear epoxy. Hanging from a cable chain, the lace circle is topped with hand wrapped Swarovski crystals and sparkly Czech glass beads, rescued from vintage warehouse stock. The piece is finished with a tassel of light catching beaded silver chain. 

A thoughtful jewelry gift for a bride, mother of the bride, significant other or best friend.

Lace design may vary due to its vintage nature.

The Story

The floral lace pictured in this design is called Schiffli Lace; it is the first machine made lace ever made, dating back to the late 1800s. This style of lace is made from very fine threads and was sewn into wedding dresses, other clothing items, and linens in the late 1800s and early 1900s. 

The White & Silver Tassel Necklace is part of the Ceci Leibovitz Heritage Collection; this modern day keepsake jewelry incorporates historical textiles, to celebrate a time when many of the items worn and used by families, were made by their own hands. 

Care

Follow these guidelines and enjoy your necklace for many years to come.
• Do not wear while sleeping or in the shower.

Each jewelry piece is handmade in the Vermont Studio of Ceci Leibovitz. Please allow 2 weeks for your necklace to be custom made for you.
