Years ago, Joan Rivers debuted her line of jewellery. It’s easy to question why a comedian should be selling jewellery, but she had a well known and long-standing love of accessories and antiques, including jewellery, and was quite well versed. I have a couple of the earlier pieces, including this Victorian-inspired hearts and flowers necklace (I bought mine with the complete set, which included different pairs of earrings and a bracelet in the same charm motif).

These are really beautifully made and were originally sold as a charm per month that clips onto the necklace. When worn all at once, as they are here, they create a really stunning effect.

This piece is being offered by Ruby Lane seller Del Mar Classique, priced at USD$339.
