Royal Mail last post for Tracked 48 is 20th December (mainland UK) - which means I need to have received the order by noon on 19th December.
I can gift wrap, add a note and send direct to recipient within mainland UK - just contact me with your message and recipient's address
It is with great sadness that I can no longer send to Northern Ireland due to excessive costs involved with new restrictions.

The origin of modern Aventurine Glass/Goldstone is generally thought to have begun in Murano, Italy - the Venetian Island still famous for its glass - during the 17th century.
It became known as "Aventurine glass" from the Italian for "by accident", as it was thought to have been created by the accidental spillage of copper filings into a vat of molten glass.
However artefacts of a material similar to modern goldstone have been excavated in Iran, dating from the 12th-13th century.

Full description
Aventurine glass, also known as goldstone, is a man-made material that comes in brown, blue and green with bright, sparkly crystals within.
Although neither gold, nor a stone, it is very pretty and sparkly.
These earrings are made using 6mm and 4mm beads of the blue variety, which have silvery crystals that look like stars in deep-blue night sky.
Between the glass, I have placed an oval and a round copper bead that add a warm shine.
The ear-wires are of gold vermeil.
Gold vermeil is sterling silver that has been plated with gold, and the wires are stamped "925".
Presented in a small organza gift bag.
Delivery is free within the UK.
