Crystals

Crystal is currently a hot item nationally and vintage crystal is still a bargain compared to buying new crystal (assuming you could find the same cuts and colors) before you even consider the time and/or cost involved in stringing.  Before I got interested in vintage jewelry I had NO idea that crystal was available is such a wide range of colors and cuts.  Enjoy!

Description: Rock Crystal Necklace Strung on Chain - Clasp is marked Sterling 5 and is a hook-safety type. Single strand measures about 16" and has faceted rock crystal wide rondelles separated with more conventional glass clear bicone beads. Rock crystal (quartz) beads range in size from 6mm to 15mm and are graduated around the strand. A few beads must have broken at the clasp end at one point as there is a little gap in the chain and one side starts with very slightly larger beads; this would not affect appearance when wearing but as I have no source for replacing the missing rock crystal I am selling as is.

Item: CN1-0069

Price: $49.50 US

Description: Long Czech Cut Aqua and Clear Crystal Bead Necklace - Though this doesn't have the crispness of faceting and quality of top quality Czech glass, this still is a beautiful color; the beads graduate to a whopping 15mm x 22mm for the largest bead, and the entire necklace measures 24". This deep aqua color is a perennial fashion favorite and for those seeking longer strands this is an excellent value. Original stringing, spring ring clasp.

Description: Argented Black Crystal Parure - Yes, this set has a triple strand adjustable 15 1/2" necklace, button style 3/4" screwback earrings, a 1 1/4" diameter domed brooch and a 3 wrap "slinky" style bracelet. I have worn the brooch as a center focal point on the necklace for variety. A versatile parure in an easy to wear color.

Description: Red Aurora Borealis Two Strand Crystal Necklace - Nested two strand necklace of red (siam) aurora borealis 13mm beads, separated by goldtone crimp beads.  18" with fancy red rhinestone push in clasp.  This is a little "wavy", so I would be happy to restring at no extra cost if you so desire.

Price: $49.50 US

Description: Czech Cut Clear Crystal Beads - While I believe these are top quality glass rather than rock crystal, these beads show no sign of telltale bubbles and are quite cold to the touch. Sterling safety clasp, about 20" long. Beads graduate from 6mm to 13mm and are separated by small faceted clear rondelles. Recently restrung on silk. Wonderfully sparkly and certainly on the same level as top quality Swarovski.

Item: CN1-0073

Price: $49.50 US

Description: Funky Black Beaded Fringed Collar Marked West Germany - I still see a glimmer of irridescence in some of the smaller beads but the general effect is black. Goldtone chain and findings. Adjustable hook will fit up to a 16 1/2" neck (could easily be made larger if needed). About 1" wide. Lots of fun for a bargain price.

Item: UN11-345

Price: $15.00 US

Description: Over The Top Basket Earrings - Done in emerald green and sapphire blue glass rhinestones and crystal beads and headpins, this pair of silvertone earrings are really unusual.  2 1/4" x 1 1/4", clip, dangle style.  Looks like Vendome but doesn't have the trademark clip mechanisms.

Item: UE11-128

Price: $45.00 US
