Most Mexican Locks I've seen have different coloured glass and lots of colours, mine has green on both sides which I rather like. Although this lock is retired, the gold version is still available in the current collection.
I wasted no time at all in ordering this, I still can't believe I was able to aquire a new one at a sale price, and to the lock's credit my live-in geek even expressed how nice this was... the highest praise indeed - reserved for only the most special of pieces!
You know, I have never looked very closely at my Mexico Lock, but when Alison posted pictures of hers I thought it looked different, and now looking at your pictures I have just had to go back and check mine!
ReplyDeleteIt is definately the same, but mine has 2 purpley/blue glass peices (With a slight hint of green on the edge of one)
I adore this lock, out of all my locks it's my favourite. I would love to see more locks that aren't animal/flower designs in the collection. Mexican Lock reminds me of a lot of more Gothic or Steam Punk jewellery, probably why I like it so much!
DeleteI would definitely love to have multiples of this one and I really like the sound of yours... both purpley/blue sounds great! I was surprised when mine came as I had assumed they were all yellow/orange one side and blue/purple the other but it seems there is more variety than I thought.
Would love the see the photos of yours, are there any your blog?
