Looks to Love:

Back on the Chain Gang

Contributed By: ecofabulous

If you crave unique, elegant jewelry without looking like every other Bejeweled Betty on the block, get a load of Dirty Librarian. Although its name brings certain other things to mind, this jewelry company actually reworks tired vintage chains into funkier, edgier pieces, each of which is custom made.

Through her deconstruction process, designer Susan Domelsmith drapes, tangles, and knots vintage gold- and silver-plated chains into one-of-a-kind necklaces that are both stately and streetwise. What’s more, each additional component, like charms, pendants, stones and other accoutrements are always unique and always changing as Domelsmith scavenges for them.

Feed your inner rebel and join the most fashionable chain gang around.
