Wuthering Heights Jewelry Box "If he loved you..." Heathcliff Quote, Recycle Book Page, Keepsake Box
Taking inspiration from Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights and the tale of doomed lovers Catherine and Heathcliff, this jewellery Box has been given a vintage makeover and includes one of my favourite quotes as mentioned below
“If he loved you with all the
power of his soul for a whole
lifetime, he couldn’t love you
as much as I do in a single day.”
Heathcliff
― Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

I have created a vintage styled shabby and chic keepsake box from a plain wooden box which has been painted in cream and distressed with bronze painted edges, sprinkles of gold glitter, hand stamped with the 'Wuthering Heights' quote and brown swirls.
The jewellery box also includes a brass miniature frame with part of a rescued book page from Wuthering Heights at it's centre. The book page has been sealed over with a protectant glaze. Please note that the book page you receive may differ from the one in the picture as it may be taken from a different page of the same vintage book but it will still contain the words 'Wuthering Heights' and have accompanying text.
The inside of this pretty keepsake box has been left as unpainted wood and outside of the box has been sealed with a clear protective glaze. This is a trinket box with a magnetic closure.
