Hello and Welcome!

Hello and welcome to behind-the-scenes at Penny Masquerade. My name is Sarah and I started making jewellery in 2008. I originally set up a company named Ruby Rouge but having discovered another jeweller trading under that name I decided to change my name so as to avoid any confusion. After months of uming and ahing over the new name Penny Masquerade was born! My new etsy shop - http://www.pennymasquerade.etsy.com - will be launched on Wednesday 19th May (only 3 days to go!). I've expanded the collection currently available for purchase at http://www.rubyrougejewellery.etsy.com and you can see a sneak preview of some of the items that will be going up for sale at http://www.flickr.com/pennymasquerade or by viewing the slideshow on the right-hand side. My designs are influenced by Alice in Wonderland, fairytales, France, afternoon tea, history, pirates, nature, romance and writing. I love the past and love to imbue my designs with characteristics apparent in vintage and antique designs.

To celebrate the launch of Penny Masquerade I will be holding a competition giving you the chance to win one of the new designs! The competition will begin on Wednesday to coincide with the grand opening of the shop so watch this space.

If you have any questions or comments don't hesitate to contact me either via the blog, my etsy shop or my business e-mail: contact@pennymasquerade.com
