Does anyone know what the tiny little Swarovski Crystals trimed in gold are called.
They are marked with a T on the bottom and I think it maybe Trimline but there are none listed on ebay at this time?
I have sold them before and they do very well.
Thanks

I will try to get a photo up here tomorrow if I can remember how?
It's a Trimlite not a Trimline but I still don't see but one or two listed on ebay?
The website above states:
It was in the early 1980's that the Trimlite product line was also launched in the US. Trimlite was manufactured by an outside vendor with Swarovski chandelier parts. The Trimlite line only lasted a few years and each piece is marked with a 'T' logo and the year made. The series is highly prized for gold plated pieces and the many interesting designs. There was also an early relationship with a company, Ebeling & Reuss, that also had pieces manufactured by Swarovski specifically for them. Those pieces were also US items only and carry an 'E&R' script logo on the bottom of each piece. Another early line was Giftware Suite which created more functional items, such as the desk accessories, some ornaments and other pieces. Some had the SC logo and some did not. There was also a small line of children's figurines done in 1992, Julia's World, that was a US item only. The 8 figurines of frosted children plus a dog and a bench - came with a book that told Julia's story. This set is now being recognized as an interesting addition to collectors worldwide as so few were made and only in the US.

Thanks Patty
I found some of the same sites that you did.
I also found one that talked about some that were not dated (as mine isn't)and some that were made by Zales. They said they all had values of $80.00 to $375? Guess I could just start it at $50.00 and see if it sells. It's a really cute little teddy bear,

Patty did I read in another post that you are just outside Savannah? I may have you confused with someone else?
That's my home town and my sister still lives there.
For anyone who has never seen Savannah - they should go.

Glad I didn't dream it.
Now I'm trying to figure out what town is 47 miles away?
Hope you can get to River street for the Fireworks - really great.
