*The New Vintage Amethyst Boutique*

Well there is a new look Vintage Amethyst!
It's something I've been working on for a few weeks now & is something I have had in my mind since Vintage Amethyst was first born in 2003!
Some of my readers from the early days may remember that at the time Vintage Amethyst only sold jewellery which was handmade by little old me, but when I first started Vintage Amethyst & always wanted to sell pretty jewellery alongside vintage style accessories & homeware but when Vintage Amethyst first began the jewellery was really popluar so at the time I decided to concentrate on the jewellery side & leave the homewares behind.
But as a few years passed my it was my love & passion for pretty homes & vintage style 'Shabby Chic' homewares that I missed so I decided to join the two together again at the fairs & craft markets that I attended at the time, but then when I re-designed & re-launched Vintage Amethyst the online boutique in April 2008 it was the homewares that I decided to concentrate on this time & leave the jewellery side behind but in the back of my mind I have always wanted the Vintage Amethyst Boutique to be a mixture of pretty items for the home & also delicious items to wear & so here we are today the new

There are 2 new collections the first is just for you ...
which is full of pretty jewellery & vintage style bags which I thought I would show you a small sample of.
I am completely in love with the pretty bag at the top of this page, it is so delighful & pretty & so wonderfully vintage in style.
The pretty necklace above is handmade by me & is made using pretty amazonite stones including that wonderful 'teardrop' pendant with pretty fresh water pearls & sterling silver beads ~ these are one of my personal favourite combinations for pretty jewellery.
The necklace is £20 & can be found *here*


These earrings are also handmade by me & are sterling silver & have wonderfully big deep red fresh water pearls.
They are £6.50 & can be found *here*

Another pretty jewellery item in the just for you ... collection is a new favourite of mine which isn't made by me this time, but is this pretty delicate necklace which is made with pretty dimpled silver tone beads & shell beads all threaded & knotted on white cotton.
I think it is just perfect for the summer but when on it looks quite elegant too.
The necklace is £15 & can be found *here*
This is another one of the pretty clutch bags I have in the new collection.
I am so in love with this one too, it is a really pretty silver grey with this wonderful ruffles in satin material. It has a really pretty diamante clasp at the top too & come with 2 chains for handbag & shoulder bag use as do most of the new bags in the collection.
This clutch is £25 & can be found *here*
There is also a new wedding day ... collection, as many of the Vintage Amethyst items are much favoured by brides on their special day I thought I would have a new section which places all the most popular wedding items together with a few new additions specifically tailored for the wedding day decor.
I really hope you will pop along & see the changes to the website & visit the new just for you ... collection & see all the other pretty new items.

  10. Love your style. The clutch bags are wonderful. Great jewelry you are so talented. Do you ship to the US or is it to pricey? Stella

  11. Is there no end to your talent… all of it is gorgeous!
    Thanks for your comment, I was really pleased with the price…I wish I had brought the other pair. They were pale blue and in good condition, there was four of us in the car so we didn’t have much more room.

    Love Lou xxx
