Well it was a new one when I bought it from a charity shop. It's a Marks and Spencer's Per Una one and I got it for almost £4. It's drop dead UGLY but the rings are really solid. The construction of the necklace was really well done with very good metal used.
I've taken it apart (it was a heck of a struggle) and now have to decide what to do with the 25 rings I've salvaged!!! I've got an idea but I'm waiting for BC3 to decide what he thinks is best.
After someone has gone to all that trouble to join them! I look forward to seeing what they become, I'm sure it'll be more interesting than the original.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I'd have given that a second look! I'm glad you see potential in thrift shop items. It helps me try and look at items with a different perspective. I can hardly wait to see what this becomes!
ReplyDeleteI am sure that will be tatfully awesome when you are done with them!!! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd those focal drops will make something fabulous too, I am sure!!! :)
