Vintage Mystery Box Necklace
Recently The Beadin Path in Freeport, Maine offered some mystery boxes for sale. Each box was stuffed with vintage findings including most of the pieces from this necklace. Done in amber and green shades it includes vintage and current day pieces. Vintage lucite flowers, swarovski crystals, glass seed beads, stone cabochon, a jade butterfly, glass leaves....strung with vintage amber beads (faceted and smooth) and peridot with 2 vintage glass gold and black flower beads.
I think the balance of the piece is achieved with the use of the two color sided strands with the drape of the leaf fringe. All finished off with a black patina handmade clasp in sterling silver.

Thanks, Nicole! It was fun getting a "mystery box" and then creating from it.
