Tiina Talumees

Tiina Talumees Moestuudio viimane rõivakollektsioon Wabariigi Naine on hingematvalt kaunis! Mõnus vintage-lõiked, loorid ning loomulikult ehtekivid. See 1940-50ndatel olnud mood on üks kauneimaid üldse. Naiselikkus, stiilsus ning kõik detailid läbimõeldud. Ja need tolleaegsed ehted!!! Lääne Saksamaa, Tšehhoslovakkia ning USA disain-ehted on jätkuvalt mu inspiratsiooniks.

Siin pildil on 1955-65 aasta Läti moealbum koos ühe mu uhiuue kaelakeega.

The latest collection of Estonian designer Tiina Talumees Fashion Studio is breath-takingly beautiful! Gorgeous vintage lines, veils and with rhinestones ofcourse (here are photos of her collections through the years). The fashion in the 1940-50's was one of the most beautiful ever. Feminine, stylish and every detail in it's right place. And the jewellery of that time!!! The source of my inspiration is with no doubt the jewellery from Western Germany, Czechoslovakia and US desingers.

On the photo there is a Latvian fashion album from 1955-56 with one of my latest necklaces.

Rosary

Lehed puudel hakkavad juba värvuma kollaseks-punaseks. Loodus seab end valmis. Sügiseks...

Roosikrants. Ma väikse lapsena arvasin, et see on naabri koer :) Ega ma ei küsinud ka, vaid olin oma arvates juba piisavalt tark. Naabri nimi oli Roosi. Mida siin enam küsida.
Tegin seoses roosikrantsi ehitusega pisut eeltööd ka, päris põnev. Sobivat risti otsisin kaua, sest ei soovinud kasutada krutsifiksi. Leidsin ühe metalli firma, mis kasutab vanu, vahel isegi 100 aasta vanuseid vahendeid (stantse?), et teha ilusaid messing kaunistusi.

PS Ehtekivide fännidele lisasin tarvikute poodi mdmB-Supplies uusi artikleid. Kõiki minu varusid seal ei ole, ega saagi olema. Tegin poe, et kuidagi paremini kordineerida ostu soovijatega info jagamist. Kui on mingi kindel soov, siis kirjuta mulle, panen poodi üles.

Leaves are starting to change their color. There are more and more yellow-red leaves now. Nature is starting to get ready for Autumn...

Rosary. It is really interesting to search info about the structure of a rosary. Mine is a catholic rosary (the number of beads). But I didn't want to use a crucifix. Took some time to find a cross I liked... I found a metal stamping company that uses old, sometimes even 100 year old stamps to create beautiful metal findings.

PS I added some items for rhinestone lovers to my mdmB-Supplies store. Not all of my stash is out there and I don't think it ever will. So if you have some specific rhinestone in mind, let me know and I'll upload it.

Coral Glass

Komplekt korall-oranzika klaaskividega. Need lillemustrilised on pärit okupeeritud Jaapanist (Cherry Brand), tahulised navette-kivid on eakad swarovskid (TTC-kvaliteediga). Käeketis olev oranzikas klaaskivi on tundmatu päritoluga. Pruunid läbipaistvad ehtekivid on Tšehhoslovakkiast.
Täitsa sügisesed värvid.

Candy Shop

Ei ole ma vahepeal käed rüpes istunud, vaid tegelenud ehtekaartidega :) Ning samuti olen teinud ühe seeria kõrvarõngaid, mille nimeks sai pandud Candy Shop. Seda seoses njummide värvidega. Kõik tilga(või pirni?)kujulised kivid on pärit Lääne Saksamaalt.

I have been busy designing jewelry labels :) And finished a series of earrings that I call Candy Shop. The name came from the delicious colors they have. All pear shaped opalescent color rhinestones were made in Western Germany.
