VintageHairJewelry

These are the designs of my wife Colleen. She has been working as a designer for over 30 years. We came to the US from New Zealand in 1979. Being a young couple with 4 children, we had to find a way to make a living in a new country. We put all our talents to work. I ran the business while Colleen was the creator. Colleen was always a designer but being in the US opened many more doors for her to follow that dream. Initially she designed a line of hand knit sweaters. That lasted about 10 years. Many of those pieces are still around and can be found as vintage collectables on Ebay and Etsy. Its been a wonderful journey to be able to work with my partner successfully for over 30 years. We have enjoyed traveling around to sell our work. In our time we have sold it at little art fairs and big prestigious department stores like Harrods in London. We have done it all. I hope you enjoy Colleens work. It is a culmination of many years of work. Still designing, each collection is better than the previous one. Colleen is known for her prolific work and her innovation making many interesting pieces, unusual yet in a classic vintage style.

This Etsy Shop shows all her hair pieces. We have another Esty shop with her jewelry which can be found here. https://www.etsy.com/shop/ColleenToland?ref=shop_name_search_sugg
