Charm Bracelet (February 5, 2006)| My charm bracelet is not the world's greatest, but it means the world to me. Each tiny image conjures up memories of people, places and events. And that's the richness of a charm bracelet: tiny icons that represent the past, the present and even the future. My charm bracelet spans 5 decades. |

Paperweight Jewelry (September 6, 2002)This jewelry features flowers or scenes under glass. The pins are usually framed in brass or nickel silver. Some collectors call these goofus glass pins, while the correct name is reverse painted intaglio. Some of the finer ones are sterling and some are bakelite. Essex crystals are usually framed in gold or sterling. The backgrounds can be thin metallic foil paper (typical) or mother of pearl (older). I seldom find these pins in excellent condition. Generally, they are cheaply made and were never meant to outlive their original owners. |

Boucher Flower of the Month (August 14, 2002)| These flowers were produced by the Marcel Boucher company in the 60s. Each flower is labeled with its name, a number, and the Boucher signature. The pearls were genuine cultured pearls. The tags that came with these pieces can be seen in the last picture. The goldtone setting is all the same color. Colors in the pictures vary by lighting. |
