Original jewelry, accessories, and decor items drawn from dark antiquity – glowering, grimacing faces cast in pewter abound through Cthulhu belt buckles, deal-with-the-devil gambling trays, and bracelets linked with Frankenstein heads. Evil-inclined DIYers will find buttons bearing the visages of Countess Bathory and Marie Laveau, and this is also a good place to find statuary of the left-hand path. And the barware includes one hell of a corkscrew.

Vintage jewelry that most definitely goes for the sparklier finds. Divided into signed and unsigned, the catalog is rhinestones galore with bracelets, necklaces, brooches, with sections for bakelite, cameos, and sterling silver. This is also a good spot for back-in-the-day compacts.

A well-curated shop of jewelry that traipses through city streets and enchanted woods and mid-century dressing tables, lots of good understated strangeness in here: a necklace where a 14k gold dagger pokes into a solid silver anatomical heart, silver talons or witch hands or melting hearts to protrude through the ears, tree trunk rings complete with carved lovers’ hearts, name necklaces bathed in elegant curlicues. They also have an entire section devoted to wedding bands.

A sizeable selection of laser-cut mirror necklaces and pins bearing the retro-80’s lowbrow sensibilities of glittery sticker books and seedy party vans. Regional pride, boomboxes, lightning bolts, razor blades, rocketships, roaring panther heads, rainbows, bright red hearts, various weapons, ice cream cones, something for everyone.

Jewelry made of sweets and skulls and all kinds of tiny totems. Victorian portrait pendants, disco ball earrings, teacup rings, polkadotted hair bows, charm bracelets loaded with goodies on multicolored chains and bangles and strings of beads, and a page of boot straps and rhinestone chains to spruce up a pair of heels. Thanks, Melancholy Bliss!

Vintage that specializes in high-end, drop-dead glamour, from the Victorian/Edwardian era up through the present day. Flapper shawls, clingy starlet gowns, New Look party dresses, glitzy coats, Pucci maxis, with a reworked section that harmonizes these disparate periods together into sweet new creations. The accessories page is full of unusual detours from all-retro styling, preferring a bold, modern look that veers between delicate and rugged: obi belts, body harnesses, rings flaunting chunks of sparkling rock, modern neck ruffs, and chain/fringe necklaces that are as stunning as they are gigantic.
