Etsy user Geek Cameos Etc., who focuses on fusing nerdiness into modern attire and accessories, has introduced a vintage line of jewelry that features popular TV and movie characters on Victorian necklaces.
Replicating the ivory look on Victorian brooches, the Geek Cameos Etc. necklaces have prominent characters carved in white with a sold black background fastened with a simple black sash. Included in the collection are Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, Star Trek characters and many more. Fans can browse through to see if they can guess who each character is as well.
These necklaces are a subtle way to add a little elegance and classiness to a formal evening without hiding or temporarily showing off that geeky side.
