Sweater Guard Handmade from Bottlecaps

Sweater guards are a fashion relic! They were introduced in the 50’s as an accessory to help “hold” and secure cardigans on a ladies shoulders. Whether wearing a cardigan or a caplet these little chain accessories became all the rave! (see last pic for an example) These are handmade from upcycled bottle caps. They have a pin attached as well as a chain. Each bottlecap is flattened and sealed. Imperfections are normal and only add to the authenticity and unique value of a handmade piece. Price is firm, a unique handmade piece not found in stores.
