Michelle’s Vintage Jewelry, which first launched online in 2001, has introduced a mobile-responsive site to better display its inventory of Art Deco, Victorian Revival, and designer costume pieces from brands like Miriam Haskell and Trifari. What began as an eclectic mix of estate-sale collectibles has evolved into a curated shop where every item undergoes rigorous historical research, cleaning, and professional photography before reaching the customer.
Beyond traditional sales, the business has gained recognition in theatrical and film productions, including a 2012 feature, and served as a resource for eco-friendly wedding planning. Michelle’s work often bridges the gap between history and modern utility; she frequently uses a studio welder to transform broken components into wearable accessories. This commitment to preservation extends to her personal life, where she has documented wartime jewelry for the Minnesota Historical Society, including pieces crafted from naval flatware during the Second World War.
