It’s as Clear as Black and White

I recently got a wonderful children’s book from 1914, considering it’s nearly 100 years old the pages were still in pretty great shape. It has some wonderful color and black and white illustrations in it. I think adding black patina to the soldering on these pendants just pulls them together nicely and adds to the aged look.

I’m in love with this Red Ridding Hood illustration, I put “what great eyes you have” on the back.

Isn’t this owl really cool? He says “who” on the back.

These next two pendants are from a vintage dictionary. I think this moth is so cool. The horse is part of a series, there was a large page in the dictionary with lots of different horse breeds so I turned each one into a pendant, the name of the breed is on the back. The rest of these pendants can be found in Midway Ky at the Damselfly shop on Main Street, they come on a nice black velvet necklace. The rest of the pendants in this post are now in my Etsy shop.
