    Found some interesting bits (of scrap as my OH likes to joke :facepalm:)in the last few days.

    Lovely Uranium glass foiled beads

    Once lovely foiled beads, sadly most damaged but some saveable and the links are useful so for £2 they came home.

    Pearls minus a clasp. It always makes my nose twitch when a clasp was good enough to be cut off. These are real pearls, albeit possibly not high quality as a few have the nacre damaged and it’s very thin!

    Lovely glass beads on a nasty modern necklace so they will be repurposed.

    Avon Owl ( I know :rolleyes:but it’s cute)
    Butler & Wilson elephant and cute owl dress clip. Think he’s quite old.

    Pleased with these, they caught my eye as they really reflect/refract the light and they are rock crystal, held together with silver wires.

    Agate button, laborodite earrings, silver swallow brooch and iris glass brooch.
    E2EFE9DE-3C98-431E-861C-7C16DA019DA4.jpeg
    Sadly only half a cut steel buckle (age?) A slightly unusual necklace and my very favourite, a fat bellied fish brooch!
    8A70706B-30E6-4FFC-9ADD-240AA89C9627.jpeg And lastly, a nice find, Teka sapphire earrings. F46D7C9D-99B3-486D-A6FC-53A7F1BB5C0C.jpeg
    Thanks for looking :)

    Nice haul! Too bad the rock crystal is drilled and not Pools of Light. Or not. I don't have to feel jealous of these. :D:D:D

    I've got that Avon owl somewhere. Swallow is Edwardian.

    :p
    Sadly not. I’m building up to finding one of those!
    I can see why they call them pools of light as I could see it was different to glass straight away.

    It's so typical of that slightly later sentimental jewellery.

    It’s Camera +2.
    There are probably others out there but I find it excellent and use it every day!
