Featured Deco glass necklace

My last good find from the car boot sale today. Particularly interested in the long clear beads that have the black edges- do they have a proper name?. They have very sharp edges and appear to be cut glass whereas the cone shaped ones look pressed.
Thanks for looking

 

No idea, but I'd wear that!

 

Glad you approve as it was a little more than I like to pay but still a bargain. I've not got one with this type of bi-coloured glass which was my excuse. I've been coveting one in my local antiques mall which is blood red. If they ever reopen I'm going to buy it. It is WAY more than I ever pay for anything but I haven't seen another even similar. Just my luck it will have gone or the trader will have gone under!.

 

Was thinking I had a similar necklace I posted here (with a similar question!), but looking back on the thread, the beads are a bit different. Clear with black though.

I'll bet yours are Czech. My old thread:

It was very quiet. The Saturday one near Cheltenham racecourse is always quieter than the Sunday one but I've got to work tomorrow so I can't go and I needed to get out today!. I normally don't bother with it as they say seller set up at 12 which actually means they set up at 8.30 and are packing up by 11.30. Pointless for the poor people who actually turn up at 12!. There is an excellent one on Saturdays at Dursley but it hasn't started yet.
Weather was a bit iffy to which may have put people off. Lots of overpriced stuff with people being a bit ambitious. Not much of interest there but I was glad to find this necklace,some real pearls and the window and lamp on my other thread.
A few people wearing masks and I took my own hand sanitiser. I was very careful about trying not to get boxed in but some people are clueless!. I would wait politely two metres away for them to finish looking and then they turn and walk into me!. Then the gormless ones table blocking whilst they wait for their mum/dad/auntie/dog to finish looking. Or I would be looking at something and someone comes and stands right next to me!. I tutted a few times and rolled my eyes but you can't educate stupid. I avoided the food and the toilets!.

 

LOVE yours, very modern and cool looking whilst being actually very vintage.

 

I've been to a few estate sales, including one tag/estate sale this morning, but no flea markets. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable in that atmosphere either.

Sometimes that old jewelry fools people.

 

I was fully prepared to abandon if it was too busy. There were a couple of late arriving sellers who were besieged when they were unpacking and I stayed well away. I felt the organisers should have stepped in to keep people back as it wasn't fair on the sellers. I much prefer the sales where they keep ALL buyers out until a certain time to let the sellers set up.

 

Gorgeous necklace, K, love it. 1920s imo.

I agree. When I still sold at second hand markets (that's what they're called here, no car boots, they're indoors) I used to hate buyers rummaging through my boxes before I had set up my stall.
I always packed everything systematically for easy set-up, but my system went out the window if people had been unpacking my boxes and grabbing things. They wouldn't stop if you asked them nicely. And they would keep asking me questions while I was trying to get organised.

 

Meanwhile the poor love sponge was wondering what he did wrong.

 

It’s so rude to harass sellers and I wonder if stuff often gets stolen at that point?. Fierce dog is the way forwards. Sadly mine is unlikely to fit the guard dog criteria......

 

That is hilarious KSW!

 

He’s a darling!. I think (hope) he would defend us by making a noise and I’m fairly sure he may have a go at someone who came near the girls.

 

I have a similar! BUT PHATTER! K HE IS GORGEOUS


LOVE your necklace. I have a similar again! But mine isn't as nice as yours, just black & white and not as posh . No idea where it is...so pleased to hear you got Booty Booty today too xx

 

Cutie dog!. Barney is a Saluki and does the permanently anorexic bit. Lives on puppy food and if he has ANY stress he goes skeletal!. Embarrassing when people don't know the breed as they think you starve your dog. Fastest thing on 4 legs though.

 

I've had sighthounds all my life...this one is the phattest I've had. The other two were more whippety than she is and everyone thought they were starved xx

 

AWWW! Such a kissable sweet face!
