Aggie Elwell has had many collecting interests; however, it was her 1st piece of marked Czechoslovakian costume jewelry discovered at a flea market in Waterbury, Vermont in 1992, that piqued her curiosity about the origin and history of the unique piece she found -- for the negotiated price of 50 cents. She has researched and written about Czechoslovakian jewelry. As a member of the Czechoslovakian Collectors Association, she presented seminars on Czech costume jewelry and has written articles for the Journal of Czech Decorative Arts and co-authored an article for Unravel the Gavel.A selection of pieces from her costume jewelry collection was on exhibit at the National Czech & Slovak Museum in Cedar Rapids, Iowa from November 2017 until February 2018.
