Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 280, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 27 November 1911 — Amber Beads Again. [ARTICLE]
Amber Beads Again.
Once more in favor are these glistening, gleaming yellow beads which since the time of our grandmothers have been worn as necklaces. With the collarless blouses and the lingerie frocks, with their low necks, neck ornaments are especially fashionable, and this gives added opportunity for the wearing of this pretty old fashioned bead. All sizes are worn, from the small pea-sized bead to the one large as a good-sized marble. And in the jewelers’ shops one may purchase them by the string or by the dozen, in this latter way making it as one pleases.
