Twisted Silver has created a fabulous and bold ring for the new season; and it is fit for a queen! The beautiful new Queen ring from Twisted Silver is a vintage inspired, black and silver ring which fits perfectly into the current Baroque trend from the runways; a trend we are seeing continue into fall 2012 and winter 2013!

The Queen ring by Twisted Silver features a stately wax seal of a Queen surrounded by a vintage, silver border. The ring offers a vintage silver patina and makes the perfect bold statement for the season. Love this!

Twisted Silver launched a new necklace today named the “Monocle” necklace. This fabulous and eco-chic piece features a vintage optometry optical on a multi-colored metal recycled chain. Love this!

The “Monocle” necklace from Twisted Silver fits perfectly into the current bold jewelry trend and offers a kitschy look which is sure to start conversations. Since the kitschy trend is huge for fall 2012, the “Monocle” necklace is a great investment to wear now and well into next year.

The vintage optometry optical is removable, making the necklace versatile and a great piece for travel since removing the optical gives the necklace a whole new look. Two necklaces in one; love it!
