#5: Cephalpod Chatelaine, 1800s
It’s so fun to go into second-hand shops and see what vintage clothes or items you can find. From special crockery to forgotten jewelry, there are so many possibilities. The best part about the whole thing is stumbling upon pieces you might never have seen before…
Not only is the octopus theme bizarre, but it’s also an example of things people used to wear that they don’t anymore. Chatelaines were commonly worn by women to keep scissors, watches, and other useful items at hand. They could be clipped to a lady’s sash or dress and were often adorned.
