Very Superstitious: Priceless Treasures With an Extra Special Twist

If you know us at all by now you’ll be only too aware of our love for discovering new and exciting independent brands. One brand that has got the whole office talking this week is Fortune & Frame. This New York City based jewellery line offers playful treasures with an extra special twist..

See, these are no ordinary necklaces and that’s exactly what we love about them! These beautiful pieces of jewellery each hold words of wisdom in the form of a fortune. The handcrafted lockets contain a differing inspirational note, isn’t that so cute? We love this idea and the totally original concept that sets Fortune & Frame aside from all other jewellery brands.

Not only do these make for fantastic treats for yourself, they’re also a wonderful gift to give your bestie, mum, nan, sister or anyone who you want to show a little appreciation and love to. Each piece is handcrafted in NYC with a team of dedicated jewellers who want to provide only the best quality product.

Designer Gretel Going founded Fortune & Frame back in 2012, she became tired of picking up a fortune off the floor which she had stuck to the fridge and that’s when the idea was born! Gretel then went on to spend an impressive three years learning the jewellery craft from anyone who would teach her, et voila! Fortune & Frame was born.

Each Fortune & Frame collection introduces a brand new theme and narrative, ensuring the designs are kept fresh and inspiring. One of our favourite designs here at YCB is the classic Fortune Cookie which almost didn’t make the cut in fear of it being ‘too obvious’ well we’re certainly glad it did as we simply love this design.

For the Queen Bee’s out there, the Honeycomb Fortune Locket might be just what you’re looking for. A stunning design holding onto a meaningful memento, because Queen Bee’s should not be storing their fortune in their underwear drawer, or so we’re told…

Alongside their beautiful collection of fortune holding lockets, you can also find gorgeous stud earrings, bracelets and bangles within the collection. How adorable are these ‘on the mend‘ charm bracelets?

The Drips Choker is another favourite of ours and will look fabulous layered with a pendant and styled with a deep v neck top.

Fortune & Frame are taking meaningful jewellery to the next level and we can see these designs becoming instant cult classics. Don’t miss out, shop the full collection here: https://fortuneandframe.com after all you deserve a treat ;).
