This amazing creation, rightly described as jewelry for the table, is available for bidding in our online auction.

Michael Hero designs can best be described as “table jewelry.” Michael Hero has over twenty-five years of jewelry design and manufacturing experience and can be found in Major High End dept stores such as Bloomingdales, Nordstrom’s and Macy’s . Each design is a piece of art, sculpted to be admired from every angle as the back, sides, stand and clips are as intricately finished as is the beautiful front.

Every Michael Hero design is meticulously hand-crafted by carefully selected and trained artisans. Their model-makers hand carves the mold into which the items are cast in the highest quality lead-free genuine pewter. The casted items are then plated in gold, silver, brass or nickel.

The design is vividly brought to life with custom blended pigments that are hand mixed and hand applied. Michael Hero items are “Crystallized with Swarovski”, the world leader in cut crystal since the 19th century. Every stone and crystal is individually hand set to rigorous specifications ensuring the highest quality creations. Every crystal in the Michael Hero Collection is a genuine Swarovski® crystal. Michael Hero has a quality branding license agreement allowing the items to carry the prestigious “Crystallized with Swarovski” label, featured on the back cover of the romance story card.

A head band invariably puts me in mind of either my grade school days or my gym rat days but these Phillip Lim headbands I could get used to.

“3.1 Phillip Lim takes an ordinary silk headband and turns it up a notch with crystals accents. Lim’s Pleated Star Headband still has a bit of a casual feel but it’s still dressy enough that you could wear out for drinks and not feel as though you should be exercising. And no need for constant readjusting as it features an elastic in the back for a more secure fit. ($225)”

Jewelry always lends itself beautifully to telling a story, but rarely does it do so literally. Laura Bezant’s cutting edge pieces beautifully conveys whichever message you wish in a very unique approach to jewelry design.

“Far from traditional, Laura Bezant’s jewelry has a more edgy cultural appeal - Japanese manga and graffiti inspired cuffs, backlaces, earrings, necklaces and shoulder pieces. She laser cuts strips of leather or metal to form her intricate designs, some which may at first appear to be a pattern, but are actually words or verses. She offers bespoke cuffs and backlaces which tell a story - a string of words or verses you choose.”
