Estate Sale Treasure: A Curious Fish

Vintage Fish Pendant, Estate Sale ($2)
I've been searching for an affordable vintage fish pendant for what seems like forever. Every time I've found one, it's been at an antique store for over twenty bucks. That's the magic of an estate sale on the last day: everything was already fairly priced plus an additional 50 percent off! And that, my friends, is how I scored this really cool jointed fish pendant for a mere two bucks. :)

I've (of course) already strung Mr. Fish on a leather cord for near-constant wear. Unfortunately, they frown upon large sea animal jewelry at my work, but I plan on wearing this fellow pretty much everywhere else. Do you have any silly jewelry that you just love?

Always,
Amanda

  1. I totally adore that pendant!
    My grandmother gave me a little bee pin that has a tiger's eye stone for the body. I love that pin, and I wore it as my "something old" pinned into the folds of my wedding dress. :)

  2. That's so sweet! I love animal jewelry- it just has character, you know? And when it has a personal history behind it, it's even better!
