Australian online boutique Marley Rose have recently added the exclusive new label Archive Jewellery to their list of labels. Archive jewellery, the brain-child of New York twin sisters Amber & Nicole Sutton, is anything but ordinary! Their handmade, vintage-inspired line is the epitome of high-end style without the high-end price tag. Each piece in the line is one-of-a-kind without being the “only” one of its kind. They create the prototype, piecing it together with antique and new elements, and then make sure they can replicate the look. That means you won’t have the same exact watch or compass or cuff link or door number as your friend but you will have an original and it will be all yours. Visit Marley Rose for more details
