New necklace: Victorian enamel and cut-steel button
mixes it up with 1940s TWA DC-3 pin from a Stetson Stratoliner. Metals are
mixed, too: brass and nickel silver chains and plane; and steel and pinchbeck
(an alloy of copper and zinc that shines like gold) on the button. Two links
from an antique watch chain accent the neck. Delicate brass-beaded rosary chain
holds the twin-engine craft. That bitty plane makes me happy to no end.
