Learn About Vintage Costume Jewelry

Ever wonder what started the costume jewelry craze? War, that's what. There was a limited amount of metal then, so jewelry designers had to find other alternative materials to make their jewelry. That's just one of many interesting jewelry tid bits and historical information you'll find on this excellent article on Vintage Costume Jewelry History Designers, which I found, where else, but YouTube.com.



This video will be especially interesting to anyone who has a collection, even a small one perhaps, of costume jewelry or maybe if you just dig around in your grandmother's old jewelry box, you'll discover some little costume jewelry artifacts in there as well.
