Claudette

Several sources indicate that Claudette was the mark of the Premier Jewelry Company based in NYC (not to be confused with Premier Designs, a much more contemporary costume jewelry concern), with most citing a post WWII starting date. This is a rarely found mark, partially because some of this company's production may often be unsigned. Regardless, what is signed has been, in my experience, of top quality and very interesting.

Description: Claudette Bracelet and Earring Set - Beautiful combination of smokey topaz rhinestones in rounds and navettes (in the bracelet) and navette, pears and rectangular shapes (in the earrings) with two sizes of Madeira aurora borealis rounds in the bracelet and three sizes in the earrings. Bracelet is 7 1/8" x 5/8"; earrings are 1 1/8" x 7/8". Pewtery type setting. Earrings are clip and marked Claudette in a u shape on the earring findings; bracelet is unmarked but the plating color and castings are exactly the same and are too unusual for it to be just a marriage. Claudette is quite rare.
