    I m not a big fan of reverse carved jewelry. I think they call this type of jewelry also goofus glass jewelry.
    I like reverse carved jewelry because its old and I love how they took craftmanship to be made, but I cant see myself wearing them. Maybe they are a bit 'old fashioned' even for me to wear. Apart for that, I dont like flowers.
    So I bought these when I saw them and I put them away safe never to be worn again.
    Maybe someday I will do something with them.
    I think they date from the thirties and the fifties. They range in size from huge (the one in the last picture has a diameter of +/-4cm) to tiny (the pendant is about 1,5cm). I have another one thats more of a mistery to me, I will post that one later.

      I think they are charming!! Superb workmanship on them!!

      I have one with a little girl on it with bright colors. I do not wear it either - but I sure treasure it!!
