Cherished Vintage Accessories


Cherished Vintage Accessories


It is great to welcome back so many exhibitors from the first Dorset Vintage Wedding Fair especially  when they are of the calibre of  
Cherished Vintage Accessories.


...New memories to cherish from cherished memories of old. Handcrafted bridal accessories, inspirationally created by designer Abby Gadd from antique and vintage jewellery. 

Diamante and Olive Rhinestone


Cherished creates beautiful tiaras, headbands, combs and hairpins from vintage jewellery, lace and millinery. Their collection of unique, one-off headpieces is deliberately eclectic, reflecting the individuality of the original treasures.

As a designer, and with a background as an historian, Abby loves the 'upcycling' that a Cherished headpiece entails. Many of the original pieces she uses in her designs have lain forgotten in jewellery boxes for years; some are brooches with missing pins, some necklaces with broken clasps or strings, others are single earrings unable to be used for their original purpose.

All deserve being brought into the limelight again, beginning a new chapter in their decorative history. Their headpieces celebrate the warm lustre of old faux pearls, the soft sparkle of antique paste stones, and the vibrancy of mid-century rhinestones. Sensitivity to the enduring beauty of vintage pieces is what Cherished is all about.

Each
Cherished headpiece is beautifully handcrafted and destined to become family heirlooms of the future.
