About

Hello! My name is Victoria Klein and I sell vintage and handmade jewelry. My designs are colorful with floral motifs and a hint of retro style, and feature vintage and hard-to-find beads. My favorite beads to work with include Czech pressed glass and lampwork beads and Japanese “millefiori” beads (tombo dama). I work out of my small home studio in Saint Louis, MO.

I enjoy discovering “new old stock” beads that never found their way out of warehouses, packaged in their original papers from decades ago. Sometimes I rescue beads from broken vintage necklaces and bracelets and upcycle them into something new. I also have a collection of vintage jewelry for sale. I love finding old charms for bracelets or necklaces.

Besides this website, I sell my products on Etsy and EBay. Feel free to check out my customer reviews or make a purchase on those sites. 

I make my handmade jewelry with durable materials for long-lasting wear. I double-check every piece before packaging to make sure everything is perfect. When I get a vintage piece, I carefully inspect it with a jeweler’s loupe for any wear so that I can accurately describe it. 

Since many of my materials are handcrafted, my jewelry might have slight variations in color and size that will not detract from the overall look. Vintage pieces may have slight wear due to age. This is part of the charm of a previously loved item.

When I’m not working with jewelry, I enjoy listening to history podcasts, learning about beads, and taking long walks in the woods.
