I Heart Jewels

An album cover, a proposal, and just like that, everything is vibrantly Vintage!

The whole world gasped together when Taylor Swift shared her incredible Victorian-inspired engagement ring designed by Kindred Lubeck and proud fiancé Travis Kelce. The antique Old Mine elongated cushion cut diamond evokes the old-world glamour of the mid 1800’s through the roaring 1920’s, perfectly matching the style of her Life of a Showgirl album cover.

The Victorian period has always guided my hand when designing my vintage inspired collections. It was a time of true romance and an almost ecstatic optimism. A time of celebrating life every day.

Each piece of Tori Hill fine jewelry tells the story of opulence and aspiration. Ornate sculpted jewelry creations with antiqued dreamy marcasite intertwined with brilliant crystals of soft to vibrant hues all set in the timeless enchantment of sterling silver.

That old world flair is trending hot, and I am so excited to be in the middle of it.

Viva la Vintage!

Tori

A symbol of eternal love.

This carved ruby glass heart is wrapped in an ornate design that shines through it. I use the combination of faceted marcasite and antiqued sterling silver to create the perfect contrast to bring out the rich color of the valentine heart. The filigree design wraps right around the bale and continues the airiness flow of the design. I used an 18” chain with texture that pairs perfectly.

The earrings of a showgirl. 

Inspired by the feathered boas of the 1920’s, these Peaock feather dangle earrings are showstoppers designed to bring the glamour and thrill of vintage Las Vegas to your everyday life. I opted for an unexpected alternating dance of genuine marcasite and antiqued sterling silver with a milgrain pattern. I set two pear shaped simulated opal cabochons with vivid blue and green hues that really add a fiery brilliance. Both are suspended on a high polished French wire creating the perfect amount of movement while feeling so comfortable on. 

From a stroll down the Las Vegas Strip to a backyard party or even adding a touch of showgirl sparkle at the office, these earrings are designed to turn heads and win admiration wherever you go.

Nothing says Vintage quite like the combination of genuine marcasite and pearls. 

Pearls have become the go to “gemstone” of the year. I love the organic shapes of natural freshwater cultured pearls. They are set in perfect contrast to the dark and mysterious antiqued marcasite and sterling silver links. This is a perfect statement piece to wear on its own or layer with any of your other Tori Hill or sterling silver necklaces.  

We all love the opulent oversized cocktail rings of the 1920’s. I wanted to capture old world Hollywood in this ring. I set an oversized brilliant antique cut pear shaped simulated diamond in a sterling silver, six-prong split mounting, and adorned each line with antiqued pave marcasite from prongs to crown and shank. 

A true homage to all that glitters. One of the most festive and luxurious pieces in any of my collections, this bracelet features a brilliant world of simulated diamonds and gemstones. This is the statement piece that stops people in their tracks and makes them say WOW!  Each stone is carefully set in sterling silver. Antiqued faceted genuine marcasite, the preferred stone choice of Queen Victoria, frames the center cluster with the help of two large, faceted Teardrop simulated pink diamonds.
