Jewelry made from B-25 aircraft metal among featured items in 2022 EAA Holiday Gift Guide
EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (October 28, 2022) — A necklace made from skin off of EAA’s very own North American B-25 Mitchell Berlin Express is among the items highlighted in this year’s edition of the holiday gift guide, now available online.
These unique B-25 jewelry items were created after the aircraft was recently restored to its current flightworthy status, a restoration that included replacement of some metal sections of the airplane’s fuselage. The pendant of the handmade necklace is a piece of B-25 skin complete with the paint chips and other imperfections that were part of the aircraft. Aviation enthusiasts have two options for the pendant, a circle, or a rectangular shape. Both have a retail price of $68. Two styles of circular earrings are also available for $48 each. The jewelry is available in limited quantities with only 24 of each design made.
Other notable items in the gift guide include AirVenture’s very own Brown Arch snow globes, BenShot propeller drinkware, and a variety of EAA-branded clothing.
The holiday gift guide can be viewed online or in the November issue of Sport Aviation. EAA members save 10% on all regular priced goods in store and online.
