vintage necklaces
June 29, 2006philippine’s gorgeous television host and producer, daphne osena-paez, has collected antiques and vintage treasures for years. this one-time bridal magazine editor-in-chief grew up and studied in toronto with a degree in art history and urban planning - has an extensive collection of antique medallions, crosses and gems. started as a hobby (and she claims it still is), her love for jewelry has expanded to creating one-of-a-kind vintage necklaces comprising of lockets, pearls, cameos, precious gemstones and her hard-to-part-with antique religious petite artifacts. apart from these, she also has designed black onyx pieces and faux-pearl necklaces wrapped in tulle. i wonder if she will ever dabble on creating earrings and bracelets, too. i guess, time will tell!
