I discovered what could be a great jewelry web site, Connoisseur Jewelry.com. They have a wonderful collection of jewelry from all time periods as early as the 1900s going up through vintage.

The retro pieces, in particular, are very inspiring. I'm adding a few for you to enjoy here, jewelry pieces made of sterling and gold.

But, that said, what a total PIA of a site to navigate! Pictures are cut off, links don't work very well, no back button. What the?

It is still worth a quick cruise, but it's really a shame because you just get glimpses of wonderful jewelry designs, and dang it, I want the whole enchilada folks!
