This cool, collectable and unique antique and vintage element silver 'fine' jewellery piece has been created using a fusion of several different style link chunky solid vintage silver chains to set the stage for these quirky combination of vintage and antique charms and curios.
 
Taking centre stage is a quirky and collectable vintage 'Smiley Face' charm/pendant - super cool and always on trend retro.  The piece is hallmarked to the rear and the cute smiley face is set within a ring of five oval red and pink variegated Mohave turquoise stones arranged in a flower design.  Giving a nod to the 1970s 'Flower Child'*
 
*Flower child is a term coined in 1967 by the Californian disc jockey Lord Tim Hudson, who said, "Anyone aged between 15 and 30 is a flower child." The term was later adopted by Sky Saxon of the American rock band the Seeds who were managed by Hudson. He persuaded the band to write songs such as "March of the Flower Children" on their album Future (1967). The term "flower child" was then applied broadly to the hippie subculture by the mass media. It was the custom of "flower children" to wear and distribute flowers or floral-themed decorations to symbolise ideals of universal belonging, peace, and love. Flower children were also associated with the flower power political movement, which originated in ideas written by Allen Ginsberg in 1965.  (Wikipedia)
 
Accompanying on the centre ring is a silver open work 'Peace" sign charm along with a centre chain drop from which hangs an Antique Albertina watch chain 'tassel'.  Anything Albertina is always awesome, of course! 
 
As IF there wasn't enough delicious embellishment going on; I have also incorporated along the length of the chain a vintage c1970s padlock, which was sourced from a vintage silver charm bracelet.  Doing say I don't give you detail, detail, details.....
