Showing You a Few Designs in Earrings, Dating Back to the Early 1980s.
Posted on November 05 2017
I had access to these beautiful ears so I went ahead. The long silver beads in one set were made in a metal bead making factory in Attleborough Massachusetts. The factory was called James A Murphy and Sons. I believe it has been bought by another production company but if you wanted to find them, this name would work! I have bought beads from them since about 1977. Anyway, these are Swarovski Crystals and I still work with them.
I simply wanted to show you what I was doing so many years ago! So you see the beads in her hair too! Hair Ties. I'll write about them too in another blog.
I had so much fun in those days. Sigh. Taxes etc have become so boring! Anyway, here's some more. Jet Crystal. Note. If you are a jewelry designer, try always to have some Black and Red designs. There are those who search them out. Same with Black and White.
Maybe I should have made the third one shorter! sigh.
Then there were the games with African trade beads.
Now I will design more earrings to be included in the Bisbee Chain collection. You really need to visit Bisbee and my gallery, Uptown Tribal. 44 Main Street!
