I love clothing and jewelry with a vintage vibe that's why I was instantly attracted to LuLu Frost jewelry designs. Lisa “Lulu” Salzer spent her childhood playing in her grandmother’s estate jewelry store – so it should come as no surprise that her collection is infused with a taste of vintage flair. But what makes Lulu Frost pieces truly unique are the actual antiques that are incorporated into her pieces. Often one-of-a-kind, her necklaces, bracelets and earrings include everything from old shoe clips and vintage pins to door numbers from New York’s Plaza Hotel.  A stylistic combination of vintage findings and feminine, contemporary style.

In a distinctive combination of antique and modern elements, Lulu Frost represents an intersection of tradition and fashion-forward thinking. 26-year old Dartmouth College graduate Lisa Salzer, aka Lulu, creates each one-of-a-kind piece from found period antiques, including long-lost room numbers from the legendary Plaza Hotel, cut steel shoe buckles from the 1870’s, forgotten keys, beautifully crafted locks and escutcheons, chandelier crystal, watch fobs, rare Victorian charms and other resurrected finds. Lisa then reinterprets these antique objects by combining them with unexpected modern elements and stylistic treatments to achieve a completely non-traditional and fresh feel. Each work has many a story to tell.

Founded in 2004, Lulu Frost jewelry is inspired by a deep aesthetic understanding. Lisa’s experience as an art history and fine arts major helped develop the line’s striking style. Lulu Frost is named in part for Lisa’s grandmother, Elizabeth Rock Frost, who worked in the estate fine jewelry business for over thirty years. The gorgeous Victorian, Deco and Nouveau pieces that surrounded Lisa throughout her childhood are profound influences on the style of Lulu Frost today. Lulu Frost was awarded Best New Accessories Designer at Gen Art’s annual Styles 2005 Competition from over 800 international competitors. Lisa lives and works in Manhattan, where she pursues Lulu Frost with a driven passion. You can find the Lulu Frost collection, and many other statement making pieces at Charm & Chain.
