handmade wooden bangles, NEW, never been worn



I bought these wood bangles from a seller on Etsy who lovingly makes them here in Canada.
I have teeny tiny hands and wrists so although i thought these would be small enough for me, they're not.
The three bangles are GORGEOUS, substantial smooth wood polished with tung oil. The shapes, the colours of the woodgrain, everything is just perfect. I would be wearing these jauntily all summer if they fit me properly.
Please note the measurements carefully.
ALL THREE BANGLES HAVE A DIAMETER OF OPENING THAT MEASURES: 2 3/8 ", inner circumference measures 7 1/4"
Bangle 1: width is 3/4"
Bangle 2 and 3: width is approx 1 5/8" (thicker 'cuff' style)
----
Paid: $25 each + shipping (the seller gave me a bit of a deal since I was buying three at once; they originally cost like $28-30 each if I recall) = $75+
Asking: $38 for all three, plus $10 shipping [they will have to be shipped Canada Post as a 'package' so they charge a small fortune regardless of the lightweight-ed-ness] = $48 / OR $15 each + shipping
* if you are interested in only one bangle (or two), leave a comment and let me know which one(s) you want. If nobody has asked for the set of 3, then I will put your name into the random draw for just one or two. Hope this makes sense!
I'll draw a winner at random on Monday, May 17th! I prefer payment by Paypal.

[SOLD] Forget Me Not Ring - size 5



CONGRATULATIONS, JENNIFER!
This cute, delicate little ring was purchased at the Future Perfect in Brooklyn, NY. You can see the rings (by Kiel Mead) on their website (http://www.thefutureperfect.com/detail.php?id=16)
It is sterling silver, size 5, and made from the mold of a real piece of string. It's very comfortable to wear, right now mine's a bit tarnished, just ask and I will give it a polish before making its way to you! It's been sitting in the jewelry box for awhile; I just recently got married so I've put this knot ring aside to wear a couple new fancy ones.
Third photo is from the Future Perfect website (although I'm not sure the ring, even when it was just purchased, was ever ACTUALLY quite that shiny!).
Paid/retails for: $50
Asking: $22 + $4 shipping to Canada or USA (a few $ more for international)
Listing ends: March 16th. Please leave your email in the comments section and I will choose a winner at random. Thanks!

AK Vintage (Anna Korte) "The Bridge Between" Necklace - Gray



I’m in love with Anna Korte of AK Vintage's handmade creations, so much so that I own three of her necklaces from her Walt Whitman collection. After seeing someone sporting this necklace in white at a boutique here in DC, I ordered it online from her website, but was shipped the one in gray instead (I have no idea why; no explanation was provided). When I tried contacting the site to exchange it for the proper color, no one ever got back to me. But instead of persisting, I found another necklace from the collection in white at Redeem and bought that. So I'm letting this go, since I've been having a hard time pairing it with the colors/outfits in my wardrobe. Drapes wonderfully with a 30 in. chain, plus has Anna's patented clasp (my favorite clasp of clasps). Sehr, sehr chic!
Color: Gray
Materials: "Hand cut leather tassel made from antique leather gloves strung on vintage brass link chain, snap clasp" (from listing on website: http://www.akvintage.com/detail.php?ItemID=44)
Designer: Anna Korte (AK Vintage)
Purchased from: AK Vintage
Worn: Never
Price Paid: $100
Price Asking: $40, including shipping

Delicate Beaded Choker with Stars
This is a delicate beaded choker I bought at Scoop. It's in perfect condition -- worn maybe once or twice. Its length is adjustable (via two rings along its length) and can be worn either at 14", 13" or 12".
Please ignore my fly necklace. That is not part of the choker -- I forgot to remove it for the photo. Also, I notice that one of the stars appears to be missing a point. It was actually folded underneath the star and is fine but I didn't want to retake the photo. (Apologies!)
Paid: I paid $80 at Scoop NYC
Asking: $25 including shipping.
Listing end date: sept 21, leave email in comments!

A.S.I.S. Necklace



(first two photos are from the designer's website, luvasis.com)
I bought this necklace right before I got into my current necklace obsession of having oxidized/golden chains (I tried to return it, but it was past the window for returns). The quartz and string make for a whimsical necklace combination. Adorable, adorable, adorable.
Designer: A.S.I.S. (Angela Spencer’s Irresistible Stuff)
Purchased on: www.luvasis.com
Worn: Never
Price Paid: $36
Price Asking: $20 + shipping
Sorry for the sheisty photos! My only photo-taking abilities were with my Mac. Post any questions!
