Rhinestone Rosie Editor’s Pick
Costume jewelry is currently enjoying yet another resurgence—everyone from Banana Republic to Burberry Prorsum is doing it, and redoing it. But for Rosalie Bryzelak Sayyah, crystals, nickel, brass, glass, Lucite, and yes, rhinestones, have always been in. The frequent Antiques Roadshow expert has replacing the stones in heirloom tiaras and reselling beweled bumble bee earrings from estate collections at her shop since the mid-80s. Whether you’re gift-shopping for a friend with a Bakelite bracelet obsession, looking for a little something stunning and completely singular to complete a look, hoping to give granny’s goods new life, or thinking that you’d like to get handy with a pair of needle-nose pliers, Rhinestone Rosie is the place to shine.
