Bonnie's Vintage Rocks
jewelry is handmade and offers an amazing range of
one-of-a-kind designs. Bonnie's Vintage Rocks compliments

featuring elements such as mother of pearl, freshwater
pearls, agate, jasper, granite and a wide variety of unusual
vintage beads.
For jewelry designer
Bonnie Koch, a love for all things vintage is the driving
force behind her creations. Since childhood in New Jersey,
Bonnie has adored anything antique and unique. While other
children played with dolls, Bonnie would marvel for hours at
the costume jewelry treasures that graced her grandmother's
multi-tiered jewelry box.
Flash forward a decade or two (or four!!), and that same
little girl's passion for vintage jewelry fashion still
exists today. For this suburban housewife turned designer,
the artistic endeavor to create wearable art, is a thrilling
journey. From the initial search for items to the final
birth of a one-of-a-kind bauble, the rewards are endless.
"I'm always amazed at and proud of, the pieces I create,"
says Koch who admittedly "Cannot draw a straight line or sew
a button!". For her, the jewelry making "magic" occurs in an
old office chair with three pairs of readers stacked on her
face! What started out several years ago as a therapeutic
hobby has evolved into a successful entrepreneurial dream.
"After I've done the dishes and helped with homework, the
evening hours are mine," says Koch. Armed with a keen sense
of style and the ability to blend unexpected textures and
colors, incredibly unusual statement pieces are produced.
"It's a pleasure to be able to share my obsession with
others," Koch says. Vintage Rocks is truly a dream come
true. Not only is she able to indulge in her love affair
with jewelry on a daily basis, Bonnie adds a little beauty
to the world, one handmade treasure at a time. "Rock On!!."
Bonnie's Vintage Rocks has been featured numerous times on
the Ambush Makeover segment of the NBC Today show.
