While I’m Waiting for Game of Thrones to Start …

May 20, 2012 by WendyB

… I’ll take the opportunity to brag that Julie Gerstein of The Frisky thinks my jewelry designs are “very reminiscent of Cersei, Sansa, Dany and the lot.” Woot!

I’d love to see my jewelry on any of the Game of Thrones ladies, but let’s not forget about Peter Dinklage, who won an Emmy for playing the devious — but sometimes honorable and always funny — Tyrion Lannister. I’ve been a fan of his since his breakout role in The Station Agent in 2003. Not only was he great in that movie, but he was also totally gracious when I bumped into him at a party and drunkenly slurred, “If I could vote for the Oscars, I’d vote for you for Best Actor.” I’m lucky that he was feeling tolerant, because according to this month’s Rolling Stone cover story on Dinklage, he can be a littler ornery. In an amusing way, of course.  (I laughed when he said one of Dany’s CGI dragons is a partier and one is a bit of a dick. I don’t think he had an opinion on the third.)

Worth reading!

Peter needs to wear my Empress Wu dragon cufflinks to his next awards show appearance.

I’d do these cufflinks for Peter in yellow gold with black pearls and ruby eyes. I’d make sure one dragon would be a partier and the other a bit of a dick, so that he’d feel at home.

    Loved the Station Agent.
    I don’t think there would be a show (Game of Thrones) w/o Peter. And he totally needs dragon cuff links.

    I love him! Game of Thrones is fucking awesome. I am so glad that they did such a great job of it because I love the books so much. Your jewelry is totally appropriate for GOT characters.

    Oh come on, the stark girls NEED a wolf necklace. Too perfect! Especially Sansa – lord knows that girl needs something good to come her way. Or perhaps one of your poison rings so that she can slip a little something something into Joffrey’s drink?

      Seriously, she needs to slip him something fatal! Or just push him off a bridge, like she almost did…

    Big Peter Dinklage fan here. I shudder to think what I might have said if I’d slurred into him at a party – I can easily embarrass myself even sober 😛

    Saw the beautiful and evocative Empress Wu Dragon Earrings while scrolling through the blog yesterday. I’ve had a Pinterest invitation sitting in my mailbox since February. I finally joined, just so I could pin the earrings. Pleasures like these need to be shared.
