Charming Baby Safety Pin

Filed under: Jewelry, Art

I'm in love with all of Jeanine Payer's creations for baby, although not all of them seem entirely practical (a pendant necklace for a baby? Hmmm). This sterling silver Baby Safety Pin is my favorite, consisting of 3 oval charms threaded onto a sterling diaper pin, each offering part of the darling quote by Henry David Thoreau: "The material was pure, and his art was pure; how could the result be other than wonderful?" The whole thing measures just 1 3/4" so it's basically a little charm itself with little charms on it. How charming! $330

I wonder if how you feel about Vivienne Westwood's diamond safety pin jewelry depends on your feelings on punk in general. Westwood, who was the doyenne of fashion's fringe in the 1970s now has her own diamond line that includes hearts, orbs,arrows and safety pins done in white gold and diamonds. Are these tomorrow's classics or do they just represent a mainstreaming and aging of what was once rebellious and young? The necklace shown here sells for $1,540.
