What's Been Added to Our Etsy Shop

What's Been Added to Our Etsy Shop

We had a great sales month on Etsy thanks to our fabulous customers. Here is a recap of some of the items we recently added to our shop.  Visit our Etsy shop's main page.

MORE VINTAGE PEARL EARRINGS IN STOCK
The most popular type of earrings we sell are vintage costume pearl earrings. They are such a classic to have in your collection. We acquired a great collection of pearl earrings recently where we can offer great prices. We added several pairs to our shop. Many are for pierced ears and about half are are chandelier-style with pearl pear-shaped drops. Some are set with prong-set rhinestones. We have some fabulous earrings with channel set rhinestones and pearl drops. Simply gorgeous. Perfect for a June Bride. Priced between $8 to $36.


ROPES AND LONGER NECKLACES
In the 1950's costume pearl designers sold what they called "ropes." We listed several pearl necklaces and long necklaces on Etsy.

We have an old advertisement from one of the pearl designers for these rope pearl necklaces (which we do not have permission to post due to copyright laws). It shows a woman wearing them tied at her waist as a knot. Worn straight and long. Worn as a three strand choker. Worn at the neck knotted, and so on. You could also use them as a thick pearl bracelet. Very cute.

FUN AND FLIRTY HANDBAGS FOR SUMMER
We added several clutches and handbags. Including two darling beaded purses with gate closure tops that are in minty condition. One is made of a cream/off-white fabric with colorful silver-tipped beads. The bag has a matching strap with an expandable metal gate opening. This bag is in fabulous vintage condition. These are much older than they look. Often people think these are from the 1960's or 1970's, but many of these plastic beaded bags go back to the 1940's and are highly collectible and valued.

We listed several peach, cream, white and silver color handbags and clutches. Although several have sold, many wonderful ones are still available. Priced between $13.75 to $58.00.

FASHION WEEK IN PARIS!!!
