Jewelry Box extras

[MelMc]

I was tidying up my jewelry box this morning and was thinking about that one section that doesn't have jewelry but all the little bits and bobs that make my jewelry more useable. It made me wonder what everyone else has in theirs. Mine currently has: two extra earring backs, one chain extender, a package of rubber stoppers that keep hook earring in place, three different pin to pendant converters, and a thingy for adding a pendant to a string of pearls. There is also one watch band pin that evidently spontaneously materialized because none of my watches are missing their band.

What's in yours?

Bad photo. I'll try to get a better one tomorrow with it unfolded. On the right side is a hinge that snaps over the pearl strand. The left side is hinged in the middle so it twists open to go through the bale of the pendant.

Here we go, the pendant adapter in action.
Here is the adapter unfolded

Through the bail and snapped shut.

Snapped shut on the pearl strand.


The final result. Because of the size and angles it doesn't work with all pendants and it's not hidden.

Do you know where one can find/buy this style?

My mom and I have been looking for something exactly like it for years (i.e. one that can be used interchangeably with different pendants). All of the enhancer bails we've seem are more permanent.

I bought it at Tripps.com way back in 90s. I just checked and they still have it and several other styles. The only thing I'm not sure of is if the company still sells to the public or if you need a jeweler to order it for you.

P.S. I paid $25 for it back then. I can't believe gold was ever that cheap.
