VINTAGE Austrian Crystal Rose Montees
made in Austria
CHOOSE AMOUNT: 8 or 16 pieces
Color: Blue Zircon
Metal finish: Silver Plated
Measurements: 6mm (30ss)
These flat-backed crystal stones are set on top of metal backings with 2 criss-cross holes going through. This makes them ideal components to use along with 2-hole Czech glass beads. You can also sew them onto a fabric piece. These very stunning crystals would make great focals for a jewelry project, a costume, fabric art or a variety of mixed media projects.
Though I am not sure of the exact age of these beads, they are most likely at least 50 - 60 years old. Due to their age you may notice some slight discoloration of the Silver, however this can be cleaned with a soft polishing cloth.

*** PACKAGING: Please write a quick order note if you prefer each lot be packaged separately by bead amount.
* For example: 3 x (10 grams) all the same bead ~ each packaged in individual 10 gram bags.
In an effort to cut down on plastic bag usage, I often package the same item together in one bag. Each individual line item will be packaged separately with labels to keep the different beads organized. Everything will be bubble wrapped well and shipped in a padded envelope or box for larger orders.
