Love these, beautiful use of old components. Was your estate lady a jewelry designer?
I think she may have been a collector of beads and jewelry. Some pieces were put together very well to endure time and wear. Some pieces are quite crude. For example, the earring wires are cheap or just pliable wire. I wish I knew who she was. I also bought very old embroidered Chinese ceremonial coats. This woman liked antiques in general.
