Take look inside designer Temple St. Clair’s jewelry box, from her personal creations to pieces she’s picked up along the way.
“The vine amulet of my own design is one of my perennial favorites. My amulets were originally inspired by medieval amulets that I saw in Florence. I wear this one most days on a leather cord.”
“These lockets are Victorian. They were given to my great grandmother, Mamie, by my great grandfather who was known to all as Big Daddy. He was an elegant gentleman in pure southern style.”
“I adapted this antique Japanese sewing box to be my jewelry box. It contains some of my jewels and treasures.”
