[QUOTE="KSW, post: 4098967, member: 8708"]I’d love some help please to unravel this set of necklace and earrings. All beautiful glass although not sure how comfortable to wear! Do you think this is genuinely vintage or something a skilled hand has made up more recently? I wonder because the clasp and chain don’t have patina on them but the wire wrapping the flowers onto the necklace does. The wire of the bead part is interesting as it looks like loops squished and threaded through each bead. There are no ends of the wire to be seen. The earrings are stamped MADE ITALY and I’ve not seen the clip ends shaped like this before. The glass flowers are intricately woven somehow by wire into the earring backs. I’ve seen a similar set described at Czech but those similar blown animals always make me think Italian. Any thoughts please as I’m not sure exactly what I am looking at. Sorry for rambling on! Thankyou for looking :-) [ATTACH=full]329900[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329901[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329902[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329903[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329904[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329905[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329906[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329907[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329908[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]329909[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
