"APRIL"

This beautiful pattern is called "April" it was made by the 1847 Rogers company in 1950. These spoon handles are adorned with three sunflowers, too pretty not to be shown off on your wrist. With or without a stone, either way makes a statement. Great gift for the upcoming holiday!

"MARGATE"

This beautiful pattern is called "Margate" it was created in 1938 by the William A. Rogers Company. This is a classic and elegant pattern, one of the loveliest patterns Rogers ever created. This would make a perfect gift to give that can be passed on to a daughter or granddaughter. This silverware is timeless and looks stunning gracing any wrist!

"CROSS MY HEART"

This heart pendant is made from two salad forks that cross over each other. I've added some Swarovski crystal dangles for a little sparkle, sterling silver chain and a ball magnet closure. This is a lovely piece that would look great with a tank top in the summer or over a sweater in the winter. Stop by one of my shows to try one on!

STARLIGHT

This lovely pattern is called Starlight and was made by Rogers and Brothers, introduced in 1950. I have flattened a serving spoon, curved the handle and attached the hollow end of a knife. I love making these vases. Put a little water in it and your favorite flower and it's perfect for your desk or window sill. These make great gifts for the holidays or as a hostess gift any time of year. Visit me at one of my shows and pick up a few of these to keep on hand.

Serving Fork Wind Chime

I love wind chimes and this vintage serving fork was the perfect base to turn into a wind chime. You can hang this on your deck or out by your pool or use it as a wall hanging as shown here. A fork doesn't always have to be used as a fork, the possibilities are endless!

Rhodochrosite and Radiance

Rhodochrosite is a strong stone that will aid in emotional healing. It is said that it will bring happiness and joy into your life. It is a lovely pink stone and works wonderfully with the Radiance spoon pieces. Radiance was made in 1938 by the Crown Silver Plate Company and still remains one of my all time favorite patterns. This necklace also has Swarovski crystals, daisy spacers and a flower shape toggle. It will look lovely over your favorite sweater or wear it with a suit for a pop of color with a simple pair of silver earrings to complete your outfit.

PLANTATION


This lovely pattern is called Plantation. It was patented in 1948 by Oneida and carries the "1881 Rogers" stamp, it is very rare and expensive when you find it. It has the beautiful cabbage rose and scroll detail. I love it as a bracelet with or without a stone and I think a few necklaces are in order. I am obsessed with this pattern. I was lucky enough to get thirty pieces of this and I'm already running low so as usual I have this on the top of my list for my antique guys to find.
