Jewelry that takes me back   Brecken Branstrator    National Jeweler     Nov. 16

I love when a designer finds a way to take a non-traditional material and turn it into great jewelry.

I’m not big on the bib necklaces that we tend to see a lot of in retail, particularly at the affordable fashion spots such as BaubleBar.

And I mean major.
