Crystals, Crystals Everywhere

So - my first post and I'm excited!

Both because it is my first post (obviously), but also because I have just received a new lot of jewellery.

This lot has come from the UK and from a shop closing - which is a little sad. However, there are some truly wonderful pieces which I have been lucky enough to gain and hope to find loving homes for. So across England and especially around the Leighton Buzzard area, my mission over the next little while is to add a little sparkle!

If your style is sparkle then this lot definitely has oddles for you. If you like a bit of bling, or need something so set off an outfit or just to say 'here I am' then this will be of interest.

Wonderful crystal watches and marvellous crystal bracelets - all sparkly and new ready for loving new homes.

After counting my new stock (always the first job) I actually get to look at it closely. I have already fallen in love with about 6 of the rings - one of the downsides of this job is that I can't keep everything that I fall in love with - fortunately most of them are not my size, so it makes it easier!

So I've started photographing them (as you can see). The rings are interesting as some of them are silver and others rhodium plated - almost impossible to tell just by looking at them- so looking for hall marks has been key. Fortunately all buy one had easy to find 925 marks -the naughty one had it kind of hidden.

I have photographed all of the stock yet, but so far love all of that I have seem - I will be dreaming about crystals tonight, but there are far worse fates.
