Quick update: MDMV is being postponed while I navigate some travel and life changes.

Rather than force something before it’s ready, I’m taking time to realign and rebuild it the right way.

Appreciate everyone who’s supported the vision so far. More to come.

“The 1923 Set” | Art Deco Cufflinks + Ivory Silk Tie

A refined pairing built around contrast, texture, and time.

This set features original Art Deco cufflinks, marked B&W Co. Pat’d 1923, paired with a smooth ivory silk tie. It creates a look that is both structured and effortless.

The cufflinks date to the 1920s–30s, with a bold geometric design and black (likely enamel) inlay set in sterling silver.

~ Silver-tested cufflinks; likely silver-front construction typical of the era.

The tie softens the look:
100% silk, fluid, and understated ~ ideal for formal wear, weddings, or modern minimalist styling.

Details:
• Cufflinks: 1920s–30s Art Deco, B&W Co. (Barrett & Worden), tested silver
• Tie: Essante, 100% imported silk, ivory/cream tone
• Condition: Both in very good vintage condition

A complete composition with sharp lines, soft finish, and a century of design behind it.

🌹 MDMV | Vintage Locking Floral Journal (Late 90s–Early 2000s) 🌹

A soft, romantic little time capsule…

This vintage locking journal features a dreamy floral collage cover in blush, cream, and muted garden tones (very much giving late 90s / early 2000s stationery era energy). Think…quiet afternoons, handwritten secrets, and the kind of journal you’d keep tucked away somewhere special.

I’ve personally held onto this piece for 15–20 years, and it’s remained completely unused all this time ~ just waiting for the right person to give it a story.

✨ Details:
• Estimated era: Late 1990s – early 2000s
• Hardback cover with romantic floral print
• Gold-tone clasp with functioning lock
• No key included (easy replacement or simple workaround)
• Lined pages, completely blank / never written in
• Condition: Very good vintage condition

🔐 Note on lock:
The lock is intact and functional. While the original key is missing, keys are easy to source, or I can provide a quick video showing how to open it with a simple bobby pin (takes seconds).

💌 This is one of those pieces that feels a little personal…perfect for journaling, poetry, memory-keeping, or gifting to someone who still appreciates handwritten things in a digital world.

✨ Sterling Art Deco Revival Figural Lady Brooch ✨

A striking vintage figural brooch crafted in solid 925 sterling silver, featuring a beautifully stylized Deco woman in profile.

This piece blends classic Art Deco elegance with bold late-century design ~ inlaid with luminous mother of pearl, rich emerald and deep black tones, and accented throughout with genuine marcasite for a subtle, antique-inspired sparkle.

The mother of pearl center carries a soft, natural iridescence that is long associated with calm, emotional balance, and quiet strength. There’s a grounded elegance to it that feels both feminine and composed.

Details:
• Appx. Era: 1980s–1990s Art Deco Revival
• Marked: 925 Sterling
• Materials: Mother of pearl, marcasite, sterling silver, resin/glass inlays
• Size: Approx. 2” tall
• Closure: Secure rollover clasp

Condition:
Good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age. Minor patina to sterling and subtle surface wear on inlays, nothing that detracts from wear.

An elegant statement piece with presence ~ refined, a little mysterious, and easy to style.

Signed Sarah Coventry Oak Leaf & Acorn Earrings ~ Vintage Gold Tone Clip-On

There are pieces that feel ornamental…and then there are pieces that feel rooted.

These vintage Sarah Coventry earrings are sculpted as oak leaves with small acorn details ~ textured, dimensional, and quietly powerful in their form. The kind of design that doesn’t ask for attention, but carries presence when worn.

The oak tree has long been a symbol of:
• endurance and steady strength
• grounded wisdom
• the kind of growth that takes time, but lasts

And the acorn represents something just as important:
• potential held in its smallest form
• the beginning of something that becomes far greater

Together, they speak to a kind of energy that isn’t rushed or performative…but deep, rooted, and becoming.

These feel like something worn not just for beauty, but as a quiet reminder of resilience, and growth.

✧ Signed Sarah Coventry
✧ Gold tone finish
✧ Clip-on style

Measurements:
✧ Approx. 1–1.25 inches

Condition:
Good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age. Some minor oxidation present on the back hardware (common for vintage pieces), not visible when worn. Clip backs are secure and fully functional. They can be precisely cleaned by me, if requested.

They sit softly on the ear, like small fragments of something ancient and enduring ~ not loud, but unmistakably present.

Signed Star-Art Sterling Silver Rose Earrings ~ Vintage Mid-Century Screwback Floral

There are certain symbols that never lose their language…
The rose is one of them.

These vintage Star-Art sterling earrings are sculpted as soft, unfolding blooms with layered petals forming a quiet, dimensional rose that feels less like decoration and more like something held in time.

The rose has long symbolized:
• devotion that deepens rather than fades
• beauty that carries both softness and strength
• the unfolding of the feminine ~ not rushed, but revealed in layers

In many traditions, the rose is not just about love…it is about becoming. It is about opening, slowly, into one’s full expression.

These feel like that kind of piece…subtle, grounded, and quietly powerful.

✧ Signed Star-Art
✧ Sterling silver
✧ Screwback (non-pierced)

✧ Approx. 1 inch diameter

Weight:

Condition:

They sit gently on the ear like small silver blossoms ~ present, but not loud. They’re the kind of piece that becomes part of you over time.

This stunning mid-century mink fur coat is in excellent condition! Made from luxurious, real mink fur with a soft tan satin lining, it features elegant mother-of-pearl buttons. Not only is it a beautiful piece, but it’s also incredibly warm!

The coat measures approximately 17-18” from shoulder to shoulder, offering a generous and comfortable fit. For reference, I’m 5’4” with a 37” bust, and it falls just past my knees, providing a roomy and elegant silhouette.

I’m offering it for $199 for local pickup, but the price will increase once I list it officially, as additional work will be needed to do so. Don't miss out on this timeless, luxurious piece!
