Cheeky Brass Nostalgia

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

From Saltines to Saved By The Bell, Emily Elizabeth Brings Back Old School

— February 25, 2009 — Fashion
Sweet, pretty, cool, kitschy and sophisticated brass jewelry that will rock your world.

Many thanks to the lovely ladies at Daily Candy for drawing my attention to Emily Elizabeth Jewelry. Emily describes her line as modern, classic and feminine; however, I’ll amend that description to also include affordable, cheeky, elegant and highly covetable.

After graduating from Hunter College, Emily began working for a fine jewelry designer and came to appreciate that not everyone could enjoy such luxuries. Emily has certainly succeeded in making the aspirational affordable.

While many of her pieces, like the Saltine Cracker Necklace, are truly one-of-a-kind, customers personalize their selections by choosing from among several available finishes. Emily works primarily with brass charms, chains and wires which are then gold-plated. Many of her pieces are dipped twice to ensure a luxurious polish as well as prevent tarnishing.

Other stand-outs from the collection include Adjustable Fern Leaf Bangle, Good Fortune Necklace and Saved By The Bell Necklace (all pictured).
Trend Themes
1. Affordable Brass Jewelry - There is an opportunity to disrupt the jewelry industry by offering affordable brass jewelry with stylish designs.
2. Personalized Jewelry - Jewelry businesses can offer personalized selections for customers, allowing them to choose from available finishes or customize pieces with their own preferences and designs.
3. Kitschy Jewelry Designs - Creating unique and kitschy jewelry designs can attract a new customer base, contributing to the disruption of the traditional jewelry industry.
Industry Implications
1. Jewelry - The jewelry industry can benefit from offering affordable, customizable, and kitschy designs to attract new customers and compete with traditional luxury brands.
2. Fashion Accessories - Fashion accessory brands can consider adding brass jewelry pieces to their product lines, offering customers a wider range of options for affordable and stylish accessories.
3. Online Retail - Online retailers have the opportunity to stand out in the jewelry market by offering personalized and unique brass jewelry designs with affordable price points.
