Fun RECYCLED Laurel Burch RED BIRD Necklace Pendant Wire Wrapped by TexasWoman


Fun RECYCLED Laurel Burch RED BIRD Necklace Pendant Wire Wrapped 

This colorful pendant was created using a deep red fusing glass that was cut then  fire polished in my kiln. The colorful bird was then wired with golden brass wire.  I then accented the piece at the top with fancy wire work and little brass beads. One of a kind creation by TexasWoman!

Vintage Chunky Charm Bracelet Lanterns Cabochons FOB 1950s 

This is a vintage gold or brass toned chunky Fob charm bracelet. The chain has two layers interlaced with a lovely impressed pattern. It measures approximately 8 inches in length and has a fold over clasp. There are seven (7) large heavy charms featuring multiple colored cabochon stone and rhinestone accents. The charms are like miniature works of art. This bracelet is most likely from the 1950s to early 1960s. Although it is unsigned, it is similar to the Napier, Florenza and Coro designs. It has a European flair to it, not quite Etruscan, but maybe French. This is a very substantial and heavy bracelet and weighs 3 ounces/85.05 grams.
