Featured 2 of 2 Do you think these pieces are handcrafted and repurposed older parts?

    The first one has a brass hook marked Western Germany but the chain is silver. The beads are attached with wire that I've seen on older Czech and German pieces. The second one has older looking glass chips also attached in an older style but definitely has a modern lobster clasp. The final two have brass barrel clasps but the necklaces themselves look artisian made. What do you think? Thanks for any assistance.

    Repurposed, I'd say.

    That's what I think also. I appreciate the confirmation. I am always second guessing myself.

    They're nicely done.

    The last one looks like goldstone (not a stone or gold).

    I think the first one has an interesting style with the top of the bead inserted into the chain.
