Vintage charms blog
ByRegular readers here will know that one of the Vintage Jewellery specialities of AntiquesAvenue is Vintage charms and Charm bracelets. I have no opened a special blog devoted to vintage charms over at http://vintage-charms-info.blogspot.com/
Do take a look, I’ve made a start on a Vintage Charms A-Z with A for Acorns and opening charms starting with A.
I’ve also being trying out Google’s new Knol system ( short for knowledge I think) and have written a five point guide on how to tell genuine vintage jewellery from modern reproductions

What is your thoughts on the difference between Antique and Vintage charms?

To my mind vintage charms are between 20 and 80 years old. Over that they are antique. Which ever you choose, vintage or antique, they are much preferable to new in quality, style, interest. collectability and value. Please do check with you dealer that you are not buying new ,
