Description: Italian Mosaic Brooch - Marked Italy and having a safety pin-type pinback, this typical floral souvenir piece seems to be perfectly intact and has no missing tiles.  Colors are mostly pastels except for the orange-red used on the outer circle and in the pink flower.  A relatively heavy piece for its 1.125" size.

Description: Green Plastic/Rhinestone Earrings - These earrings may match a plastic/rhinestone bracelet somewhere, but since this is a popular fashion color you might like to just wear them because they are really fun. Plastic is probably lucite, which has been carved and painted lime green and set with peridot colored rhinestones. 1" in diameter, silvertone clip backs. Excellent condition. Haziness on back of clip finding is the adhesive used to attach the finding, a kind of coating that was apparently applied to the earring and right over the top of the part that attaches to the earring. I've not seen any done this way before.

Item: XE5-146

Price: $12.50 US

•••

Description: Front and Back Carved Lucite, Ebony? and Silver? Pelican Brooch - Black wood that I am assuming is ebony forms the body of this piece; lucite feathers and beak, and what appears to be sterling eye and hobnails at the rear, as they are tarnished. 3 3/4" in both directions and three dimensional. Excellent condition. Gluing can be seen from rear but I think this is original to the piece. Exceptional.

Item: XP5-183

Price: $125.00 US

•••

Description: Purple and Violet Thermoplastic Leaf Bracelet - This looks like Lisner but is unmarked. Dark puprle and violet-raspberry leaf shapes alternate in a silvertone setting. 7 1/4" x 1 5/8", foldover clasp. Excellent condition - I can find no flaws. A bargain!

Item: XBRLS5-604

Price: $15.00 US

•••

Description: Stretchie Bracelet of Clear and Black Lucite? - Fun piece and great for the person who likes black/white or black/clear combinations in jewelry. The only thing that is kind of peculiar is that there is one place where there are two clears together. This could be original or perhaps this was restrung? but this does appear to be original elastic. 1 1/4" wide and 7" unstretched - this would fit almost any size wrist except a tiny one.

Item: XBRLS5-607

Price: $20.00 US

•••

Description: PAM Pink Confetti Lucite Bracelet - One of the nicest confetti lucite bracelets we've had in a long time, this is a lovely shade of pink with aqua, dark blue, pink, silver and gold "confetti". Goldtone setting, 1 1/2" wide and 7" wearable length. Foldover clasp, excellent condition.

Description: Pink Confetti Lucite Earrings - Pink with silver colored "confetti", silvertone clip findings include original "clip slips", removable clip pads.
