Art Nouveau Czech art glass and brass necklace Glorious peacock colors

This pendant dates in the early 20's and is made of solid brass and paste rhinestones. The center piece is art glass from the Czech republic and is bezel set. The heavy pendant is all original with all the original settings. I loved the peacock colors of blues and purples so I added the blue and purple czech glass beads that are nestled in vintage brass filigree bead caps. This forms a 20" chain with a signed made in czechoslovakia clasp that has a faceted blue chalcedony stone in it. IT is hard to see it the photos but this magnificent pendant draws from the alternating glass beads of purple and blue in the neck chain. I doubt these were mass produced so you will probably never see another like it. IT is a truly fabulous piece! 


Wearing your Faith with a little sparkle


HUGE Gothic marcasite Cross necklace Elaborate nouveau style chain

The photos of this remarkable marcasite cross don't do it justice. The gunmetal cross is quite large ( 4 1/2" long including the hanger) and it is loaded with marcasites that catch the light. The heavy ornate 1/2" wide chain has nouveau style floral links. The beauty of this cross is heartwarming and spiritual and much prettier in person.

Dripping in jewels she wears this well!
Dramatic and divalicious, this huge necklace is rich in bohemian colors of ambers and turquoise and purples. Rich colored rhinestones against aged heavy brass create a center piece like no other. big beads in amber and turquoise bring it all together into a one of a kind necklace that sparkles like no other. The pendant is a whopping 5" long x 4" wide and has fiery hand set aurora borealis stones that surround the center piece. WHen the light hits this it is just gorgeous! The necklace measures 18" long around the neck ( not including the 5" drop).. from jeans to a night out, it is a piece that will bring in the compliments for sure!

Egyptian Revival Jewelry

Fit for a queen....  don't you think???


What queen didn't dream of beheading her husband and keeping is on her necklace or bracelet? HA! This includes a most amazing LONG fob fur clip with bookchain drops, a bookchain necklace and best of all this wide bracelet with the hubby's head still attached!. These all came together from all my boxes of pretties and they seemed like they needed to be shown and sold together. The fur clip can be worn alone or on the bookchain.
