About Vintage Treasures
Our Service Pledge To You:
I guarantee that I have made every effort to give accurate and thorough descriptions. If you still have any questions, I will be very happy to respond to your inquiries. I want you to be happy with your purchase.
Disclaimer: I always try to describe everything to the best of my knowledge. I welcome any questions that you may have that may not be answered sufficiently in the descriptions. Please keep in mind that many of the items for sale are vintage and most likely have been loved and used as they were meant to be in the past. Unless, I specifically state that a piece is in "mint" condition, even if they were lovingly cared for through time, they will most likely have some wear.
About Us
Vintage jewelry, glass, and unique treasures from the past that won't cost you a king's ransom.
You will find a selection of unique creations in silver in the Artisan section by jewelry artist, Jeanne M. Bellone. Sterling silver and fine silver are the basis of many of her signed Artisan pieces that you will be proud to wear or give as gifts. One of Jeanne's specialties is creating luxurious pieces using the age-old technique called "Viking Knitting" which is weaving silver wire on a mandrel. Each piece using this method can take anywhere from 6 to over 50 hours of intensive work.

I strive to make your shopping experience at Vintage Treasures truly pleasurable. Here are some comments from satisfied customers:

I have been an avid collector of Jeanne Bellone's vintage craft of handmade jewelry for some years now. Each piece is well designed and made with lots of tender loving care. It's obvious in her jewelry line that her creative juices flow. I have also purchased her vintage treasures that I have been so pleased with. She is truly honest in her product descriptions right down to the tiniest flaw. I have always been happy and surprised when her package comes right down to her packing methods. Getting back to the handmade craft of jewelry ~ compliments come flowing from strangers when I wear her jewelry. Each is one of a kind and I love it! Connie

Jeanne,
Just a note to let you know I received my wonderful dusty rose powder
box! I couldn't believe it was here so fast! WOW! Talk about fast shipping.
I didn't know the post office could move so fast and the packaging was
fabulous! Better than I would have done myself. Wonderful communication and
such a GREAT price for such a neat vintage item. "Vintage Treasures" is so
much better than eBay! I plan to come back to you on Ruby Lane next time you
have something I just gotta have and, from the looks of the great inventory
YOU have, that shouldn't be long.
Thanks again. You've made me one extremely satisfied customer!

I own one of Jeanne Bellone's artisan pieces and it is truly a work of art. If you are looking for a wonderful, unique piece, I don't think you can find a better place to shop and Jeanne has truly professional presentation of each piece and she is a wonderful person to deal with.

Dear Jeanne. The necklace arrived 4th of July weekend during a family pool party at my sister's house. We were all awestruck at not only the beauty of the custom necklace but the workmanship that went in to it. One of my sisters does jewelry creations and sat with a loupe for 30 minutes looking at the Viking Knit process. The necklace more than met my expectations. You are truly a very talented and artistic person Jeanne.
Thank you so much

Artist Statement for Jeanne M. Bellone
Being almost exclusively self-taught, I am a pioneer without boundaries. My love for originality and uniqueness meshes with my love for symmetry and enduring quality of construction.
One of my specialties is Viking Knitting which is a technique used by the Vikings to weave wire into clothes and jewelry. This technique, using fine or sterling silver wire, is incorporated into many of my designs.
I am the creator of an innovative technique which incorporates early 1900's vintage seed beads from purses of that era, to create designs which are truly one-of-a-kind and which gives a delightful second life to bead materials that otherwise would be discarded.
Many of my designs feature unique vintage and contemporary beads and other materials which add a timeless beauty to my wearable works of art.
Most pieces are signed with my logo which I designed as well.
You'll be proud to own and wear one of my one-of-a-kind heirloom quality designs.
