<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 4275799, member: 5398"]You're right about ebay's categories being random. There really isn't any category that seems accurate for this necklace. When I searched "Antique Austro Hungarian Necklace", only 4 were listed as sold: two in the <i>Victorian & Edwardian Costume Jewelry 1837-1910 category</i>, and two in the <i>Art Nouveau/Art Deco 1895-1935 category.</i></p><p><br /></p><p>So based on everyone's comments I'm thinking it would be accurate to use "Antique Austro-Hungarian Bohemian/Czech Brass Purple Rhinestones Dangle Necklace" as the title (80 characters--the maximum). "Festoon" probably isn't right since it doesn't have swags or draped chains? I'd probably put it in the Art Nouveau/Art Deco category 1895-1935 -- hopefully knowledgeable buyers will understand ebay's category limitations. Or I suppose to be more accurate, I should put it in the "Other Vintage Costume Jewelry Category." Other thoughts or suggestions are welcome.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
