I saw this prenhite and sterling silver ring featured on Etsy’s homepage Sunday. McFarland Designs‘ store features many gorgeous semi-precious gemstones set in silver. If you’re into cocktail rings like I am — wow. Look at those facets!

On the one hand, it’s your typical “resort” collection — the one that comes out while there’s still slush on the ground that makes you wonder who the hell can afford to take a trip to Bermuda in late January. (Besides Michael R. Bloomberg.)

An early favorite:

Yep. Featuring the prints of Paule Marrot*:
Tuileries Leather Printed Cuff, Black, $60 (on sale)
Hayden-Harnett
Look, it comes in a cute box, too!
*No idea. But doesn’t the music on her website sound weirdly similar to the opening bars of “No Surprises” by Radiohead?
Urban Outfitters (home of the lovely and previously noted branch tree stand) is featuring quite a few jewelry holders these days.
Some of them are a bit too cutesy for me, but among the many hooks & such on the Apartment/Furnish/Pretty Little Things page, you will find this one. They’re not advertising it as a jewelry [...]

I’d go for the big dog:

I could spend hours poring over Etsy. Who am I kidding? I do.
Here are three new favorites I recently discovered. Each bring a unique perspective to vintage materials.
