Shelley Cooper's Retro-Inspired Accessory Line

© Marsha West

Shelley Cooper is an American jewelry designer known for her vintage-inspired costume jewelry designs which incorporate antique jewelry components.

Shelley Cooper is an artist and historian who designs and creates vintage-style jewelry and accessories under her company’s name “Sweet Romance." Cooper’s designs were inspired by her grandmother's jewelry and they certainly have a timeless beauty. Cooper also makes personal appearances to talk about the history of jewelry, jewelry manufacturing, and the history of commercial cosmetics and vintage cosmetic packaging.

Trademarks

Cooper produces feminine, heirloom-quality jewelry pieces. Cooper’s trademark is making jewelry that looks and feels almost exactly like estate costume jewelry. Some of her jewelry also features enamel charms and rhinestones. Her designs sometime include actual vintage jewelry components which add to the authenticity and uniqueness of each piece.

Period Pieces for Modern Day Flappers and Renaissance Princesses

Cooper’s jewelry range is created with several different period time periods in mind. If you are looking for a quality replica jewelry piece from the 1920s, be sure to check out her Art Deco & Art Nouveau collection as well as the Antiquities & Egyptian range. If you prefer the styles of the Renaissance, browse through the Victorian & Edwardian collection. There is also a fun, elegant wedding collection if you are looking for jewelry for yourself and bridesmaids on your special day.

Featured in Television and the Movies

Sweet Romance has been featured on television shows such as NBC's “Passions” and shopping networks such as “ValueVision” in the U.S.A., and “Q.V.C.” in London. Sweet Romance jewelry has also appeared in fashion magazines and has been used in the wardrobe departments at Paramount Pictures and NBC.

Very Reasonably Priced Jewelry

The Sweet Romance Jewelry line is very reasonably priced for the quality. Some of Cooper’s daintier earrings are priced at about $22 (USD) but some of her more elaborate designs are around $45. The most expensive pieces in her collection are her necklaces which can cost up to $130. Additionally, Cooper’s entire line is produced in Los Angeles, U.S.A. The superior quality of Cooper’s product line simply cannot compare to other jewelry brands sold at other major discount stores that are mass produced overseas.

Where You Can Find Sweet Romance Jewelry

Sweet Romance Jewelry is sold throughout the world by retailers in the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Russia, Japan, France, and Australia. Overstock sometimes carries the Sweet Romance Jewelry line. Be sure to inquire at specialty boutiques in your area to see if they carry Sweet Romance Jewelry and, of course, be sure to check out the official Sweet Romance web site.
