Some observations about the necklaces | |||||
Re: Re: And some more beads to ID -- Stefany | Post Reply | Edit | Forum | Where am I? |
The small seed bead spacers also seemed to be new, as did the filigree bead caps. Interestingly, the clasps appear to be vintage as they are brass with a dull patina.
In fact the owner of the shop revealed in passing that the Bakelite -component necklace I purchased from her last month, was her own (or maybe someone else's) composition from vintage components. So I think she made the two green floral bead necklaces herself from fairly inexpensive beads and components.
Any possibility that the green florals are also Indian?
Note: I am not implying that the seller was deceptive in any way - she did not represent either green necklace as antique or even vintage. On my side of things, I should have questioned her more closely about the green floral necklaces.
