Buy Vintage Earrings Online

Vintage earrings make the perfect accompaniment to both modern or vintage casual or formal wear. Vintage earrings have the unique style of the vintage era that they were made.

Vintage earrings are also made in colors, shapes, and designs can no longer be found in modern department or jewelry stores. So where is the best place to buy vintage earrings online?

If you are looking for the best price, and the most interesting and thorough selection of vintage earrings to purchase, then there is no question that Ebay is your best bet. Ebay sellers over the diversity of authentic vintage earrings that cannot be found anywhere else, at fair prices.

If you try to go to a vintage only store, you will find that the prices are much more expensive.

Diverse Vintage Earring Selection

Just in the few links that I have placed in this article, you can see that Ebay sellers present a large and diverse vintage earring selection to choose from. You can find authentic vintage gold earrings, both clip earrings and pierced earrings. If you are not looking for dressy gold earrings, you can also find dangle earrnings, hoop earrings, button earrings in silver, brass and copper, as well as crystal, glass, beaded, and plastic vintage earrings.

Since colors in past eras are different than what is popular now, you may have to search for certain eras to find the colors you want. For instance, pink was popular in the 50's, while rust and olive green were popular in the 70's.

Vintage Costume Earrings

Costume jewelry has been popular throughout the last several decades, both for the style and the inexpensive price. Vintage costume earrings have been made in just about every material including plastic, lucite, metal, and glass. Since clip earrings were more popular about 30 or 40 years ago, they are much more common in vintage earrings.

Although, don't let that stop you from buying earrings. Most earrings can be easily converted from pierced to clip or vice versa. Collecting cool vintage costume earrings is fun, and a great game to play with friends, because you can mix and match or trade them to each other. Since most vintage costume earrings are only a few dollars, you can add to your collection easily without spending more than your earring budget allows.

lakeerieartists — Wed, 25 May 2011 18:05:27 +0000

Collectible Vintage Heart Charms

Whether you are buying a vintage heart charm for a Valentine's Day gift, birthday gift, anniversary gift, or just because you like to collect vintage heart charms, the best resource for buying vintage heart charms is on Ebay.

Ebay sellers have vintage heart charms in a wide selection of styles, colors, and materials including 14k gold, glass, and crystal. Many of the gold and silver vintage heart charms are engraved, and some are engraved lockets. If you can find one in the name of your wife or girlfriend, an engraved heart charm can make the perfect gift.

Another popular vintage heart charm style is the puffy heart charm. Puffy hearts can be found in glass, plastic, and metal including some metal puffy hearts that have been enameled. Vintage glass heart charms come in glass colors that are often no longer manufactured anymore, making them a unique addition to anyone's charm collection.

Many vintage heart charms come from estate sales where interesting charm finds originate. Art deco, stamped designs, and full charm bracelets or charm necklaces can sometimes be found at estate sales in just about any materials.

Finding the Perfect Vintage Heart Charm

When searching for vintage heart charms, you need to decide what materials you want your heart charm to be. For instance, if you want a vintage puffy heart charm, but don't care what material it is made in or are not sure what you want, then search under "puffy heart charms" until you find what you want.

Buying vintage heart charms on Ebay is a cinch, because the sellers tell you the size of the charm, the materials that the heart charm is made from, and shipping fees. Buying from Ebay is safe, and you can buy from a seller that has a high degree of star rating.

Puffy heart charms come in plastic, glass, metal, and engraved or stamped metal, and I want to buy a red glass puffy heart charm to add to my jewelry line, so I type in "vintage red glass puffy heart charm" to get what I want. Charms can be sold singly or in lots, so check the description.

The lot of vintage cinnamon red puffy hearts would work, but they are plastic, and I prefer glass, so I am going to search further. You can find vintage heart charms for any price on Ebay. If you are worried about losing your find to a competitive buyer, then choose the Buy it Now option, but if you want to get the best price, bidding is the way to go.

Combining Vintage Heart Charms with Other Vintage Charms

If you want to create a special romantic gift for your sweetheart, combining various vintage charms on a necklace or bracelet is a very unique gift. An example is in the picture to the right where a vintage skeleton key has been combined with two vintage heart charms, one of the heart charms is a brass locket.

Eclectic necklace designs are very much in style right now, and look great with vintage hearts in brass, silver, and copper, as well as other vintage charms. These charms are often connected with either copper or brass chains that have a antiqued patina or are authentically vintage.

Add Color With Enameled Heart Charms

Because the heart motif is popular, and has been popular throughout time, both antique and vintage heart charms are available in a variety of sizes and styles including enameled hearts on metal.

Enameling is a technique of melting glass powder and fusing it onto metal. Traditionally enamel is fused onto copper, but it can be fused onto silver and gold as well. Designs can be made with the enamel itself or in hollowed out spaces created in the metal. Sometimes the enamel colors are separated only by a thin wire. This enamel technique is called cloisonne.

Vintage enameled heart charms can add color and whimsy to any jewelry design.

Do You Collect Jewelry Boxes?

My daughter has been collecting boxes since she was just 3 years old, and her favorites are vintage jewelry boxes. There are so many varieties of vintage jewelry boxes to choose from in your choice of vintage materials: silver, pewter, wood, porcelain, and brass. Vintage jewelry boxes are very affordable to collect and make great holders for your vintage jewelry, but also for other things as well.

Vintage jewelry boxes make beautiful containers for all of your hardware, stickers, buttons, baubles, barrettes, pennies, and pencils. Vintage jewelry boxes also make beautiful additions to your decor in any room.

Since my daughter has been collecting vintage jewelry boxes for so long, my husband and I look for a vintage jewelry box to add to her collection for every birthday, and every Christmas. Vintage jewelry boxes range in price. You can find a lot of very affordable vintage jewelry boxes on Ebay, and you can also find some very rare vintage jewelry boxes. You can start with any of the links on this page, then click to get more information. But if these aren't exactly what you are looking for, just click through to see more vintage jewelry boxes.

Vintage Heart Shaped Jewelry Boxes

Hearts have been a popular shape throughout the years because they represent love and romance, so it is not surprising that jewelry boxes have been made in heart shapes. What is fascinating is how many different materials you can find vintage heart shaped jewelry boxes in.

Heart shaped jewelry boxes can be found in crystal, wood, and porcelain with added decorations either carved into the box itself or added on top of the surface of the jewelry box. Many heart shaped jewelry boxes have floral decorations added on the surface with paint or enamel.

Silver Jewelry Boxes

Silver jewelry boxes were much more common at the turn of the last century when silver was a much lower cost. Many beautiful vintage necklaces, brooches, and earrings were delivered in a silver hand carved jewelry box.

Silver could also be molded in its molten form, and that was another way silversmiths would shape the boxes. Nevertheless, you can find some lovely antique and vintage silver jewelry boxes in several different shapes on Ebay.

Most silver jewelry boxes would have a hinged top and have a padded interior to cushion the jewelry that was placed inside (most likely gold and gemstone jewelry).

Vintage Music Jewelry Boxes

For young girls, a music jewelry box was extremely popular once the mechanics of creating a music box was discovered. Most music boxes had more than one shelf or drawer, allowing the child to open the top lip to listen to the music, and a wind up knob on the bottom or side of the box.

In later years, vintage music jewelry boxes were created that would have a ballerina dance to the music in the jewelry box while it was playing. Some of these boxes would also have a mirror to display the dancer more thoroughly.

These music boxes were very treasured keepsakes for many girls as they grew up.

Vintage Wood Jewelry Boxes

Wood jewelry boxes are one of the most beautiful materials that vintage jewelry boxes are made of. Wood can be stained, lacquered, painted, or inlayed with other materials for a lovely design. Depending on what country or culture the jewelry box originated, would change the method of decoration, and the types of wood used.

Some wooden jewelry boxes were painted with country or folk scenes of the era, similar to what you may see in other paintings or illustrated books of the time period. Personally, I love the natural wood boxes with inlaid wood or ivory on the lid the best.

Pill Boxes, Trinket Boxes

Very small vintage jewelry boxes were also called trinket boxes or pill boxes. These tiny boxes were used for holding very small jewelry or trinkets, possibly pins, brooches, and charms, and also snuff. Snuff was not supposed to be used by ladies, but it often was.

Pill boxes were also used to carry medicines in a more hidden manner that we might today, due the privacy and secrecy of any kind of illness or ailment. These smaller boxes were made of the same materials as larger vintage jewelry boxes including porcelain, brass, and wood. They were small enough to be tucked into a handbag or inside pouch under a ladies skirt.

You can find many of these delightful vintage boxes on Ebay to horde your special trinkets and treasures. And these vintage jewelry boxes made terrific gifts to girls of all ages like my daughter.
