SPECIAL FEATURES
This garland is hand strung with a variety of fancy vintage beads and is 6 ft long. Gold and silver beads showcase unique blue, bright red, magenta, light pink, and green beads. I created a collection of 6 garlands (see other variations) with a similar look and feel that each feature a different combination of beads intermixed with the repeating pattern of gold and silver. Be sure to look at each photo carefully to see the unique beads specific to this garland. These were some of my favorite garlands to create because I enjoyed the spontaneity of choosing the accent beads as I was stringing the garland.
Please note: Since glass bead inventory is getting harder to find and has increased in price, we’ve also had to increase the price of our bead garlands.
Bead strings are carefully cushioned in soft tissue on all sides to avoid breakage and are packaged in our signature Dresden Star Ornaments gold boxes. Handy care and handling tips sheet is included in each box. We recommend that you store these garlands between tissue in their original box when not in use.
Lovingly created by Alicia Giaimo.
JUST IMAGINE, THESE GARLANDS ARE 50-70 YEARS OLD!!! Please note that missing paint, discoloration due to age, and rough edges will be present on these garlands and is a normal part of the character of older vintage items. I have been careful not to use any broken or cracked beads. I have taken good pictures so you can examine the condition before you buy. Additional note: We prefer not to use "mercury glass" in our descriptions or titles because it was actually a silver nitrate solution, not real mercury, that was applied inside the glass beads during these time periods to give a metallic appearance to the colors.
