Everything You Need to Know About Antique Vintage Paste Jewellery – Lillicoco

I have a collection of antique things; antique brooches, hair pins, and necklaces; I love the charm and enchantment each brings _ My captivation has a recklessness ! Oh, I love the lure, the pull, the quest, and when I find a treasure I feel blessed. ______________________ October 08, 2022 Poetry/Rhyme/Captivation Copyright Protected, ID 10-1493-222-08 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Captivation sponsor, Julia Ward, Judged 12/23/2022 Third Place

They are works of art; I sold jewelry in my younger days. It was a joy seeing gems reflected in the eyes of potential buyers. The design of the settings, the dedication that goes into the cutting of stones quite a captivating production. I'm with you, having more than several antiques myself~ now including myself.

Joe, thank you so much for the comment and humor, I inherited a lot of antique jewelry, and that sparked my interest. There is nothing more exciting to me than finding that perfect vintage treasure. I spend a lot of time at thrift stores, church sales, consignment stores, anywhere that a treasure might be hiding, Constance
