Back in the day when I used to make beads, I went to a lot of trade shows. And at many of them, I would big bead my beads for other people’s beads, or just outright buy beads. I was completely addicted to Swarovski crystals, especially the vintage ones. A friend of mine and I would go in on box lots and vintage cases (these often came 12 beads to a case) and we’d sit in the hotel room laying them out on the bed and watching all the pretty colors sparkle.
Anyway, I still have a goodly number of Swarovski crystals, and even some of the vintage ones. The smaller blue-black cubes on these earrings are modern, but the all the rest are pre-1980. The fittings are all sterling silver. Perfect for those formal occasions!

I am … was? *obsessed* with crystals.
I still love shiny sparkly things. Especially sparklies. >.> One of my friends nicknamed me “[Lime]bird” and that was one of the reasons.
I have to say…I sort of knew you’d be interested in this one 😀
For me.
These would be a lovely gift for a friend. Thanks.

Love them. When my friend Maxine and I made glass jewelry, we filled the shapes with Swarovski crystals.
