Back in March, I wrote about the wonderful lace trend for spring and summer. Whether it’s a delicate scarf or a bit of trim on a pastel tank top, lace adds a touch of romance to any ensemble. That’s why I was so excited to learn about a whole new way to wear lace! The Vintage Lace bangle (top right corner of photo) features a classic silhouette and lace from Indonesian kebayas which are traditional Indonesian ceremonial blouses. GeoArt by jewelry designer Cynthia Gale offers four unique styles of lace bangles in gold, red, black and white.
I think that they are all lovely, but the white lace bangle, which is set in lightweight resin, is absolutely stunning for summer. Pair it with a breezy summer sundress or add some much-needed whimsy to staid office wear.
The Vintage Lace Bangle is just one of jewelry designer Cynthia Gale’s many striking pieces of wearable art. Gale is a former international fashion model and became enthralled with the art and culture of Indonesia during a modeling assignment in Jakarta. Later, she returned to Bali and was inspired to create these beautiful pieces for GeoArt.
Her latest line (pictured), incorporating distinctive elements with mother of pearl, silver, batik fabric and banana tree bark join the Cynthia Gale jewelry collection. Pieces are available in many museums, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and dozens of boutiques throughout the United States. In addition, Cynthia Gale jewelry is available at the online retailer MaxandChloe as well as at Cynthia Gale.com.
