What is old is new again















Vintage keys: I have been collecting and making jewelry with vintage keys long before Tiffany's ad campaigns. The Markham key, is sold at http://www.suetables.com/neckpen1.html, is actually an old key to the shed of my beloved and long lost cottage, Markham Lodge, in the Laurentiens in Quebec. It was a mistake to sell the lodge, an old hunting and fishing cabin overlooking a small fresh-water lake. It carried so many happy childhood memories of family and friends. I comfort myself with photos, memories, a tree I planted to remember my father and this old key I had cast in sterling silver.
