Subject: Fossil beads/twist beads
Written By: deloreangrrl on 04/16/03 at 09:10 a.m.
Hi there!! If anyone can direct me to an online site, or dealer or perhaps work something through eBay or PayPal, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I have been searching eBay etc desperately for twistbead necklaces and fossil beads...and even more specifically, the clasps that were used to hold them around one's neck. I remember the really fashionable ones had various designs, but if you were a poor schmuck like me, you only managed a faux-gold or silver shell shaped or ring. eBay has gobs of semi-precious stone chip beads that are excellent for the twistabeads...the fossil stone ones are a bit harder to come by and hotly contested in auction, but I have had no trouble getting the beads I want. I just can't find anywhere on the net, not even in the vintage sections, the clasps/buckles/fasteners that were used. These were often as decorative as the beads themselves.
Anyone know where I can find these clasps?
