We
are very excited to have recently purchased a large lot of vintage Miriam
Haskell stampings, filigree and other metal components. We will be adding this
stock to Bumbershoot Supplies and
Bumbershoot Supplies on Etsy over the coming days.
This
blog post is a sneak preview of some of the fabulous vintage metals to come.
We
have filigrees…
Stampings…
Charms and more.
Some
items are in raw brass.
Others
are finished with that plated finish that Haskell made famous, Russian gold
plate. To learn more about Russian gold plate, see my blog post here.
There
are even a few items in silver.
If
you have been reading this blog or the Bumbershoot Designs and Supplies newsletters,
you know authenticity and provenance of our supplies is important to us.
How do we know this is Miriam Haskell stock? Decades ago our supplier, who had a friend
who worked at Miriam Haskell, was invited to purchase stock at the Miriam
Haskell Company’s warehouse. Fast
forward to the present, and now our supplier was ready to pass it on. So it’s a pretty short and direct journey from
the Miriam Haskell warehouse to you! I
hope you will enjoy watching as these new vintage treasures arrive at Bumbershoot Supplies.
