With a definite offbeat edge, these necklaces by Spanish designer Frederique Conte are remarkably charismatic. Featuring tiny characters intertwined in the metals, this jewelry is really one-of-a-kind.
The artist, who is unsurprisingly described as funny and laid-back, loves to experiment with whimsical touches such as these "little people." Interestingly, Conte actually designed these to make a statement about gender norms, particularly with her athletic depiction of Jane (of Tarzan fame) in her 'Jane' necklace. Definitely not for apprehensive fashionistas, these pieces inject a lovely bit of personality into otherwise lifeless ensembles. Currently sold on Howkapow.com, these adorable necklaces are sure to sell out quickly.
Adorable with a dose of sass, these pieces are lovely combination of quirk and boldness. Clearly capable of creating name-making pieces, Frederique Conte is a name to look out for.
