SEED PEARL JEWELRY AGAIN
characterization That Had It's Day Of
Popularity Long Ago Has Re-
turned TO Favor.

Get out your seed pearls that have
been tucked away for years, for this
once popular jewelry is in favor again
and is appearing IN delightful forms.
While the new designs are copies of
the old French pieces, they neve have
the association OF an antique, so deal

pairing the old brooches, bracelets and
necklaces handed down from an ear
lier generation.
If your boxes reveal no treasures,
the modern effects are lovely. Very
gorgeous is one ~festoon necklace of
combination oval chains OF smaller
seed pearls and ending in the middle
Of the front in a long pendant.
Brooches -oval, round and star
shaped-are the size of an old fash
toned watch or slightly smaller; and as
a concession to modern taste, there
are fascinating bar pins of various
lengths. formed Of connecting rings
of the seed pearls. some with 3. round
cluster brooch in the center.
Lorgnette and watch chains Of dou-
BILE or triple rows Of the seed pearls
are studded at intervals with oval or
round clusters.
A quaint bracelet copied from an
heirloom has a solid ~Btudding an inch

shaped ornament fanked by two small

Two old band bracelets OF seed
pearls have just been made into a

with a fringe of the pearls finished
with small drops.
Remarkably quaint are the long fes-
toon earrings. These are rather try
ing and should be worn with caution
by all save the woman of regular fea.
