Related: About this forumAntique Brass Art Nouveau Drawer Pull Choker Necklace and Earrings Set
The centerpiece of this choker necklace is an antique Art Nouveau drawer hardware pull (the last photo shows what it was like when I purchased it), with a large, flat and smooth oval vintage carnelian glass bead dangle. The deep red beads in the strand are Grade A semi-precious carnelian barrel beads.

You should have seen that drawer pull when I first bought it. It was so tarnished and water damaged, part of it was black.

In the tight spaces? The worlds smallest brush? Looks great!

I do have a website:
https://www.monicasvintagejewels.com/
I'm having a 15-20% sale though 2/15. The promo codes are at the top of my main shop page.
Edited to correct the link so it would be live.
