Gorgeous!!
I finally went through all of my personal collec...tion of beads that are housed in 52 plastic storage cases, and pulled out all of the rare, Victorian one-cuts and took an inventory of what I have. I have had several customers ask me for authentic, Victorian one-cut Charlottes and at times, I have pinched off amounts from my collection, but I never really sorted through everything to see what I have.
These Charlottes were part of a collection that I acquired from a wonderful woman whose great-great-grandmother was a master bead worker, making gorgeous beaded handbags in the 1800's. She was a wealthy railroad heiress and had enough resources to travel around the world by train and acquire these beads. These are very rare, exquisite beads. I don't use them in purse repair much, however, but I have customers who do Native American bead work, and other gorgeous projects, and they long for these beads. Please realize that when these are gone, we will never again have access to these, so please bid accordingly. And know that your bead dollars are going toward helping people with disabilities or addiction to learn a skill that helps them add a new level of joy and achievement to their lives.
Feel free to order as many beads from me as you wish- you will only pay a maximum of $3.33 regardless of weight. I refund overcharges through paypal.
I have a huge collection of antique, being pre-1940, and some pre-1900, authentic rare seed beads. For more listings, read the About Me attached to my seller name to see more offerings online.
