Darkened brass jewelry collection - seahorse frenzy

I'm in love with my newest pieces from the Vintaj company, who put hours of work into achieving a perfect gingerbread brown patina on their natural brass jewelry components. I immediately put them to use in some new designs that pay tribute to my beachy mood of late. The double-sided brass seahorses are some of my absolute faves.

Seahorse and mother of pearl necklace with fuchsia candy jade

Seahorse with glimmery seaweed hued fiber optic beads

Seahorse with faceted drops bangle set

Seahorse with mother of pearl and ethereal blue zircon glass drop

Did you know . . . this interesting and weird fact from Wikipedia:

During social moments or in unusual surroundings, seahorses turn bright colors.

(Sort of like the flashy beads I've been surrounding mine with.)

How nice! Seahorse is just perfect for summer! I make my own jewelry and that's a great idea for me. Thanks for sharing this!
