Today's Vintage Bling - Diamante Rhinestone Festoon Necklace

Today's bling is such a beauty. I love diamante rhinestone vintage jewelry. For one thing, the price of it is always so much lower than the colored rhinestone equivalent. They seem to be very undervalued to me. Also, diamante rhinestones will go with every fashion choice or color. They are understated and very elegant. Perfect choice for the upcoming holiday season!

This pretty festoon necklace is set in silvertone metal and features a stunning design with prong set emerald cut and chaton rhinestones. Imagine this at the neck of a simple black dress for New Year's eve! Just perfect.

The size of the necklace is 18" long and it has a fold over clasp. Clear and bright rhinestones for a glitzy effect. The price of this lovely festoon diamante necklace is only $49.99 so it won't break the budget. It is available from my Vintage Jewelry Lane Shop.

BIG Bold necklaces are in!

I was Christmas shopping with my daughter yesterday at the mall and spent some time in the jewelry departments seeing what they are offering for necklaces this year.

One trendy boutique had a whole window display of just necklaces. The styles were all very big and bold...either with huge beads or with large areas of dangles. The styles were almost like a throw back to the 1980s, but with more interesting beads and stones.


Here is an example from my Carolina Collections Vintage Jewelry ebay store of a style similar to some of those with the big dangles. It's a very pretty pink rhinestone and lucite festoon type necklace with lovely pink lucite crackle beads. It's a bargain for only $16.50! You can click the picture to go to the listing page.
