Message:: [QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 469354, member: 51"]Did get an amazing haul from helping at my friend's antique show.  My goodness, I was in my element.  I've been slow to post (hope to eventually list a group shot in finds) but meanwhile wondered about these two necklaces. Purchased from a woman who only sells jewelry at the show, actually she is the person where I spent 99% of my money. I am a glass bead fanatic, both pieces are 100% glass.  So unusual with the rhinestone clips.  Anyone seen similar? The seller just had these two, I asked, "guessing these were from the same former owner?" and she said, "yes". Also said that she had not been able to find anything out about them, but guessed maybe Italian. Thinking either Italian, or maybe from an artisan craft show?  Is there a name for the sort of satiny orange striped ones?  I know I've seen that kind of bead before. The long green pressed glass ones I've never seen. Also that promising looking mark in photo 7 on the clasp is not any kind of signature.  Just seems to be wear.
