"Portobello Mary" Auction

Thanks for the link. I love vintage costume jewelry!

Funny but true (and I know I've told this story before):BAGUSE:
I was in London for work several years ago and had a few hours free and found the closest (but not cheapest) area known for antiques. I was in and out of a few pricey shops. Then was walking along and looked across the street and saw a shop window FULL of vintage costume jewelry. I walked through the door and thought I was in heaven.
Got to talking to the owner and though he'd been in London since the 60's or 70's most ALL of his stock came from his cousin picking for him in Ohio.
Kind of took the mystique out of it all.
 
I was just coming in here to post the same thing!! WOW what a collection she had. Did you ever get to meet her/see her booth?? Bet it was a stunner!!!
