Floral Silver Scarf Slides | Reclaimed Vintage Silver | Heritage Series

Floral Silver Scarf Slides

These scarf slides carry more than silverwork. They began as a pair of floral silver earrings acquired in Sedona about 30 years ago and were reworked by hand into functional slides for wild rags and scarves.

The fronts keep their original dimensional floral pattern, and the backs were converted into scarf-slide hardware for modern wear. The transformation was kept simple so the character of the original metalwork stays the focus.

From the Maker

“They began as a pair of silver earrings given to my mother by my stepfather during their years together, part of the romance and history they shared. These pieces are a reminder that heirlooms do not have to remain unchanged to keep their meaning. Sometimes the best way to preserve a story is to let it keep living.”

— Suzette Meyers, silversmith and founder of Bootleg Silver Co.
