Old Lucite Beads! They just don’t make anything quite like it anymore! Just ask my Great Aunt Mary - she turned 102 last week. I made her a necklace with vintage German lucite and crystal beads. She loves the old beads. Why wouldn’t she? The special of the day is 15% off all Vintage Lucite Beads until October 31st. That’s in addition to any other discounts you may be entitled to. To take advantage of this special simply write the words "Vintage Lucite Special" in the comment section during the checkout of your online order.
Tinsel Lucite Earrings - JB The earring design pictured to the right has some of our newly acquired Vintage Lucite Tinsel beads as well as Vintage Brass Cage beads. You have to see these beads in person to truly appreciate the quality and the feel. They are available in Silver and Gold in two sizes, 16mm as well as 18mm. Check them out in the new arrivals section and get them while on special. Great old goodies.

New Arrivals - All sorts of old stuff! Like Vintage Chain with Mother of Pearl nuggets and brass corrugated beads within the chain. Unusual! More and more old lucite beads, vintage metal beads and findings. Oh, and did I mention our Clasps? We have lots of them as well. The Fall collection of Swarovski crystal beads have come in including the new color Vintage rose! We really like the new color!

Just a reminder - We will be in Charlotte, NC for a Down the Street Bead Show the first weekend in November and then in Charleston, SC the second weekend in November. Please do come visit during these shows. Jean, Alice and Kevin will all make appearances. Our famous Kelly will be running in the New York Marathon the first weekend of November so lets all cheer her on!
