Antique and Vintage Beaded Jewelry & Accessories Victorian, Vintage and Contemporary Costume Jewelry Examples
Examples of some great hand beaded jewelry and accessories, including glass beads, plastic beads and steel beads.
Examples are of Art Deco Jewelry, Victorian jewelry, vintage costume jewelry and contemporary jewelry by Sue Bacchinski, Canadian beader extraordinaire. I've included Victorian and French purses as well since their workmanship is incredible.
There are many other examples of beaded jewelry but I thought these pieces offer a variety of types of beads used over the years.
