Christmas tree brooch vintage stone – colored stones 18

The fine brooches are made of old vintage rhinestones. Most of the brochures are unique, but there may be individual models, of which there may be several. The brochures are hand-assembled in an area in northern Bohemia in the Czech Republic. The same place that also makes the popular rhinestone Christmas trees. The area formed the headquarters for jewelry and crystal production before World War II. The many workshops were run by the German minority, who were expelled after the war – because they supported Germany. Subsequently, the country was occupied by the Soviet Union for 40 years. It was not until the fall of the wall that the large stocks of jewellery components and rhinestones, which have been left untouched for years, began to be traded. These are the stones that are still used to collect Christmas trees. This means that most of the stones are from the 30-40’s. Since the earrings are often unique, it is not possible to reorder them in certain colors. Then there's a combination you love, so hit it - it'll hardly come back. Materials: brass and lead are used to solder.
