Howlite Heart Gemstone Necklace with stainless steel chain.

Howlite Heart Gemstone Necklace with stainless steel chain.

Howlite is calming because it encourages you to “live and let live”, letting go of attachments that are causing stress and encouraging you to enjoy your life as it is without worrying about what others are doing. This in turn promotes true rest, which is why it is known for helping with insomnia.

*Please note that natural gemstones vary in colour and detail slightly.*

Please note that with vintage items, a few signs of age are unavoidable. All items have been lovingly restored to get them as close to their former glory as possible or the individual components have been used in my own new designs.

The ethos behind VintageLoveByTrine is to reuse and up-cycle old and broken jewellery or utilise surplus materials. I am very passionate about reducing waste materials and want to try to move away from the current trend of fast-fashion and throwing away after a single use.

The majority of materials are sourced from house clearances through charity organisations, and this not only guarantees that no item will ever be exactly the same but allows me to support charities and do my small part to reduce waste.

Most of the designs are my own and inspired from my Danish heritage along with my love for vintage styles, with some vintage products having been restored and some being completely new but made from surplus materials.

All chains are either restored sterling silver or new stainless steel and all earring hooks are sterling silver unless otherwise described.
