Goodwill hunting #10: vintage chain necklaces

Vintage necklaces are standout pieces. Before the age of mass producing an accessory, jewelry designers made one-of-a-kind pieces that today are rare unless you shop secondhand.            

My mother bought me an interestingly designed green-and-blue chain link necklace made from glass beads for $2 at a local thrift shop. It made me reminisce about my other great vintage necklaces sitting in my jewelry box that I  found mainly at estate sales.

After finding a great necklace, I usually head to Etsy.com when I want to search for more unique jewelry pieces that I probably would never find in the real world.
