Ach Ach Liebling: Well, Kiddo? Do Not Covet Necklace
First to recommend
Description
Love the attached commandment charm. Clever, clever.
From the site:
An antique nudie postcard from one of the early decades of 20th century is reproduced in miniature on a hand-formed pendant. Measuring approx. 1" x 1.5" the pendant is fabricated from a smooth, matte plastic material. The print of a bloomer-clad seductress beneath the words "Well, Kiddo?" is resin-coated for protection from the elements. A tiny vintage charm (.4" x .4") inscribed with the 9th commandment ("Thou shall not covet thy neighbors wife," Kiddo) is the perfect coy accent.
Pendant hangs on 16" of brass chain with brass details and charm.
This item is custom made, usually ships in 5-7 business days.
$35.00
Ach Ach Liebling | USA
Wordsmith, plasticsmith and all-around bricoleur, Joanna Petrone sells her hand-fabricated jewelry under the company name Ach Ach Liebling (which means "oh oh darling" in German).
Born and raised in downtown Manhattan, Joanna migrated to California to attend Stanford, where she wrote a thesis on lesbian pulp fiction of the 1950s and graduated with a degree in English Literature. An impassioned reader and writer still, Joanna amuses herself by inserting language jokes and games and storybook allusions into her jewelry works, sometimes by nature and sometimes by design.
A runaway art project involving plastics and paperback book covers was the impetus behind Joanna's first experimental jewelry line. A hearty stint researching and experimenting with the processes and materials led to Joanna to developed the handsome, durable line of plastic pendants that are now a mainstay of Ach Ach Liebling.
In addition to hand-fabricated plastics and printing processes, Joanna uses metal, wood, lucite, celluloid, often incorporating vintage materials into her work. She takes inspiration from old postcards, Fassbinder movies, zoos, Victorian children's books, Antarctica, 19th c. naturalist field guides and ornithology handbooks, deep sea exploration, cities, and candy.
A perennial student, Joanna is currently learning metalsmithing at the Revere Jewelry Academy in San Francisco.
