H: 20cm W: 16.2cm D: 1cm, A London designer creates jewellery and frames from vintage stampings sourced from a Parisian factory which ceased trading. They are silver plated and, in some pieces enamelled, then decorated with diamante, vintage glass or ceramic stones, some with semi-precious stones, again sourced in Paris. These fabulous contemporary pieces retain all the fine detail of the original stampings and are remodelled in the designs and colours of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods of the 1920s and 1930s. All pieces are nickel free and hypo-allergenic.

About us

The Old Cinema, London’s antique and vintage department store

Opened on Chiswick High Road in 1979. Recently named in the ‘100 best shops’ in the world by Retail Week, this former Edwardian picture palace boasts 10,000 square feet of showrooms and is home to a collective of antiques dealers, decorators, designers, and jewellers.

The Old Cinema was just that, a local picture house circa 1908 to 1934, when it was relinquished and remained dark for two decades– apart from a brief spell as parachute storage during WWII.

The building reopened in the 1950's selling Victorian furniture and was soon attracting a strong export market as traditional British antiques became the vogue around Europe, America and Japan.

During the 1970s, the site narrowly avoided demolition by a supermarket chain. Instead, a couple of local antique dealers obtained the freehold, refurbished the old building and created the much loved local attraction that continues to inspire visitors with its eccentric mix of furniture and accessories
