Immortelles Beaded Wreaths were popular in the xxxx's and often made by French, German and or Italian Peasants to decorate graves. They are not often found and are very rare sentimental heirlooms.
The flower petals and leaves were made by stringing tiny glass beads onto wires and than bending to shape and mold into a work of art.
