1950s vintage flower necklace




1950s celluloid flower necklace with pale mauve rhinestones and silver tone metal-- just listing today in my vintage shop, 5gardenias. i love my beautiful horse model -- i've named her rosilyn after marilyn monroe's character in the movie the misfits- a truly stirring, gritty movie, starring clark gable, & marilyn, who gave haunting performances-- set in reno nevada-- directed by john huston and screenplay written by arthur miller. it's well worth watching... it's one that stands out among thousands of the fims i've watched..very memorable and moving

  5. oh --i understand how skye feels ( just the sweetest!) poor rosilyn did take a big fall and her leg broke off!! i am bringing her to the hospital to have her leg fixed so she can dance again!--all the other horses in her little family look very concerned. i will be performing the operation today!
