Winter Colours ...by Countess Dracula..

 Some of the new winter colours available in the Czech glass beads ..by Countess Dracula..

 All these pieces are made in Melbourne..

They add that dash of colour to a winter coat or jumper..

 These are on pins in a beautiful Dark Red...very like original vintage crystal beds..These are graduated and fall well around the neck...

 Vintage style crystal clasp used..all styles can be custom made...

Bettbett Beads

 I love these vintage pieces. Mostly two and three strand pearl and glass beads...1960s early 70s.

I think they remind me of very well dressed women from my childhood....there was a woman that lived across the road ,she was glam We as children called her Bettbett , and all those 60s TV stars .Loucille Ball ,Mary Tylermore,The It Girl Marlo Thomas and Mister Eds Neighbour (forgot her name but she was glam).Anyways all very reasonably priced.....Under $20..

These are my Favorites! Antique Sweetheart Brooches..

 Antique mustard Spoon ...made in to a brooch ..hallmarked 1912

The Horse Shoe is a very Strong symbol in all these styles...I think it was a symbol of Good Luck ...Most of the hallmarks on these pieces are during  WW1...

 My very very fave....
