Narrative Jewelry by Nina Bagley

...within each piece, a story unfolds.....

here are some lovely words from a recent customer:

"Dear Nina -- Just a little note to let you know that the necklace that I purchased has arrived safe and sound. Needless to say, it is exquisite. It really does feel wonderful, as you said it would. It has a surprising heft around my neck, but is very comfortable to wear, and I am so glad that the length is adjustable. The leather is so soft, and I am really admiring how you attached the pearls and mother-of-pearl to it. The black leather, antique tatted lace, and pearls are a beautiful and unique combination. Then there is the lens with the lace bird and the Emily Dickinson quote on the back in your hand, and the hope charm with the ribbon and tiny pearl attachment. The attachments up top are a wonder, too. I don't know what I love most about it . . . wearing it because it does look and feel so wonderful on me, or admiring each tiny little detail up close. I honestly can't say enough good things about it! I love what you are doing with leather, and I am very glad that I decided to get one of your first pieces in this new direction. Best wishes to you from a very satisfied customer."

and another lovely review:

"the bird of hope necklace arrived today, dear Nina, and I am so happy that I cannot take it off. I have looked longingly at your jewelry on Etsy for a long time, and when I saw the little bird and the hope charm, I knew this one was the one for me. I love the ribbon tie closure, the crystal and wire stations you've made (really amazing to look at in person, so cunning), the bumpy pearls, the little bird, and the hope charm -- every last bit of this necklace, I love. But I especially love the way that it makes me feel -- magical and happy and at peace. Lovely. Oh, I am so happy and can't possibly find the words to convey that to you. Thank you, thank you, thank you."
