What: Roadrunner Bracelet
Where: Mark Edge – $149
Why We Love It: Was difficult to select a favorite from Mark Edge’s new Eco Vintage collection, but we settled on this Vintage Roadrunner bracelet because it was something we hadn’t seen before. Such an unexpected mix of materials, with the gold roadrunner, the brass rings, the chunky crystals and the vintage beads. Fun – with a vintage roadrunner charm dangling off the clasp and yet still incredibly sophisticated.
Designer, Mark Edge, looks to current trends but makes them entirely his own. This season drawing upon that messy, asymmetrical look as inspiration for his handcrafted classic and timeless pieces. For the Eco-Vintage line he worked with all sorts of vintage materials he collected ranging from reclaimed metal and wood to dead stock vintage chains and fittings in copper, sterling and gold to vintage crystals, quartz and beads. Mixing old and new, mixing textures and materials for a completely unique and fantastic look.
