Description: Claudette Bi-Colored Japanned Earrings - These huge main stones are unique - antique cushion cuts with a topaz streak in the middle of a light jonquil field. Japanned finish, marquises are bronze (not original). 1 1/4" x 7/8" Item: SE12-446 Price: $28.00 US |
Description: Trifari Jointed Silvertone Pendant and Earrings Set - Medallion styles are particularly popular with the babydoll or tunic style tops in fashion. Pendant is in two connected sections; round snake type chain is about 24" and pendant measures 2 1/4 " x 1 3/4". Clip earrings are 3/4" x 3/4". Very slight scratching on front of pendant is NOT noticeable when worn but price reflects. Snake chain by itself probably justifies the price, I have seen the necklace for sale, alone, for much more than this. This design is often referred to as "Asian" motif, and also came in goldtone. Item: SS12-411 Price: $12.50/set US |

Description: Jonne Taupe and White Seed Bead Earrings - The true color of the beads was difficult to get - maybe light khaki is a closer description, kind of a light green-brown, with opaque white. All hand-wired. Goldtone setting. Jonne mark is on the findings. 1 1/8" in diameter. Very good original condition. Item: SE12-447 Price: $17.50 US |
Description: Schiaparelli Necklace, Bracelet and Earrings Set - Schiaparelli pieces are not common; when was the last time you saw a demi-parure? This goldtone set features lots of clear pave in a design that, in the bracelet and earrings at least, looks perhaps like acorns, but regardless of what you think it is, it is intriguing and very wearable. The bracelet in particular is very nice, using a rectangular cobra chain with double dangles, foldover clasp and safety chain. The clip earrings are signed on both the clip mechanism and the earrings themselves, while the necklace and bracelet (see pictures) have Schiaparelli in script on the back of both. The necklace uses a chain of flattened goldtone disks, ending in an adjustable chain and hook. The necklace is adjustable up to 17" (and could be easily added to if needed) with central "acorn" measuring about 1 1/2" Earrings are 1 1/8" in diameter, 7". Excellent condition. Collector's dream set. Item: SS12-891 Price: $885.00/demi-parure US ![]() ![]() |

Description: Corocraft Sterling Frog Brooch - Famous and highly desirable frog pin with gorgeous enameling on the body in multi greens and yellow, with yellow and red accents. Frog sits on rhinestone encrusted lily pads. 2 1/4" x 2 1/8" x 5/8" deep, very 3-D and well made. Green cabochon eye. Vermeil setting, all is pristine except for the fact that the spinner safety for the pinclasp is missing, brooch still closes but doesn't have the security of the spinner. Because of this I am pricing at 1/3 to 1/2 of what you would pay on other sites. This could be fixed by a laser solder expert but I'll leave that up to you. Marked Coro Craft in script and sterling in block lettering. Item: SP12-966 Price: $395.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Schiaparelli "Volcano" Earrings - Schiap used a lot of watermelon stones; here is a variation. These stones use olive green with a reddish brown back flash; I believe that this specialty color is referred to as volcano. Goldtone dogtooth setting. Marked Schiaparelli on the clip findings. Minimal wear where ear would touch metal, otherwise excellent condition. 1" in diameter. Item: SE12-889 Price: $69.50 US |

Description: AMCo Gold-filled Hearts and Flowers Pin Pendant - Done in aqua marquises and rounds and accented with a glass pearl and clear rhinestones, this charming sentimental piece can be worn as a brooch or as a pendant on a chain. Marked 1/20/12K GF and AMCO. 1 1/2" x 1 1/2". Very good condition with slight darkening of clears commensurate with age. Probably WWII era. The round aquas are in square settings but appear to be original. Stones became a scarce commodity during the war and manufacturers had to make do with what they could get their hands on. Item: SPP12-742 Price: $24.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
Description: House of Schrager Fifth Avenue Floral Brooch - Done in prong set yellow topaz marquises surrounding a center clear dentelle and alternating with smaller chatons; pave set stem. Silvertone setting, 2 1/2" x 1 3/8". Excellent condition. House of Schrager was actually located at 392 5th Avenue in NYC, from about 1925-1960's. Difficult to find, and often marked just Schrager. Very nice collector's piece. Item: SP12-967 Price: $42.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: CRCo Goldfilled Pin Pendant Necklace and Earring Set - If you like yellow and you like "cat's eye" type stones, then this is a great set! Pin pendant is hung on a reptilian type chain with a thumbless spring ring clasp, chain is unmarked. Pin pendant is marked 1/20 12K and CR Co, with the R larger than the C and the o of Co inside the C. Pendant has six prong set small clears in the center over a metal star, which tops two layers of yellow oval stones. Earrings are screwbacks with a single yellow bezel set stone topped with 5 prong set clears. Earrings are marked 1/20 12K GF on the edges of the earscrews. Neck chain is about 15", pin pendant is 1 1/2" in diameter and earrings are 1/2" x 5/8". The only condition issue I can see here is that the clears have greyed to the point that they almost look like black diamond rhinestones, but I don't find this to be offensive at all. Item: SS12-739 Price: $49.50 US ![]() |
Description: Trifari "Lightning" Brooch - This matches the Trifari "Lightning" necklace that we have for sale, and again features lines of clear baguettes alternating with lines of round rhinestones. All clear stones, set in silver Trifanium. Very good original condition with a usual stone greying on the baguettes that is almost always found on pieces that haven't been tampered with. Produced in 1961, this measures about 3 1/4" x 1 1/4" and is layered for a great three dimensional effect. Marked Crown Trifari with copyright symbol. Item: SP12-893 Price: $125.00 US |

Description: Trifari White Enamel Mesh Bracelet with Goldtone Fancy Clasp - A "summer" look for this company (though this might look pretty cool over the sleeve of a long-sleeved black sweater) this features a goldtone decorative clasp with a large foldover finding, with a swirling design on the decorative part. This is signed Trifari, with a crown, on a small applied plaque - without the copyright symbol, so it would appear to be an early to mid 1950's piece. Excellent, almost pristine condition on the enamel, with only a slight darkening to the goldtone clasp. 7" by 1 1/4". I have never seen this design before and would love to see the matching pieces! Item: SB12-1082 Price: $34.50 US ![]() |
Description: Weiss Dark Blue Aurora Borealis Rhinestone Earrings - All multi-prong set in two sizes of blue AB rhinestones, these clip earrings are in excellent condition. Silvertone setting, 1" in diameter. Item: SE12-645 Price: $24.50 US |

Description: Trifari Sterling Vermeil Philippe Earrings - Late 1940's ear clips with the unusual clip finding that Trifari used at this point of their production. Sometimes referred to as the "squirrel" design, this features a prong set raspberry glass cabochon topped with a cobalt blue faceted stone. Clear pave at top of the volutes is original, though the stones have darkened. Marked crown Trifari on the clip findings and sterling, pat. design no. 143989, which dates these to 1946. Item: SE12-357 Price: $79.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
Description: ART Link-style Necklace with Colorado Topaz Rhinestones - Goldtone, adjustable hook necklace will fit up to a 16" neck. Nice with either casual or dress clothes and great with the brown clothing that is currently popular. Excellent original condition. Item: SN12-274 Price: $30.00 US |

Description: Trifari Pastel Art Glass/Rhinestone Earrings - Sought after earrings in pastel blue, accented with light sapphire aurora borealis marquises and rose (pink) aurora borealis rhinestones. Silvertone Trifanium settings, topnotch clipback findings are marked crown Trifari with copyright symbol. These almost look like little flowers. About 1" x 7/8" , excellent condition with just some wear to the AB coatings. Item: SE12-892 Price: $49.50 US |
Description: Eisenberg Original Aqua/Rose Pink/Clear Rhinestone Dress Clip - One of the most beautiful of the (legitimate) EO dress clips, this uses 3 large and four small pink ovals, four pink marquises and 12 aqua ovals, with many clear rounds set in silvertone potmetal. At almost 4" x 2", it is huge and heavy. Usual signed dress clip finding. One aqua oval and one pink marquise show some aging, and a few of the clears are greying but all in all this is in exceptional condition for a 1930's piece with all original stones. One of the "holy grails" for an EO collector. Item: SD12-1257 Price: $295.00 US Sorry, SOLD! ![]() |

Description: Trifari Philippe Overlapping Heart Brooch - Goldtone, glass cream pearls, and clear rhinestone rounds and baguettes. 2" x 1 1/2". Very good condition, with some wear to the plating and slight scuffing of the pearls, certainly to be expected in a 50+ year old piece. Marked Trifari Pat. Pend.; patent was #169209, registered in March of 1953. Item: SP12-362 Price: $22.50 US |
Description: KL Artisan Glass Beaded Pendant Necklace - A lovely combination of peacock (deep aqua) blue, capri blue and black beads with an artisan glass pendant. Pendant is about 2 1/2" x 7/8"; chain is 26". Larger beads graduate in size up the sides, with black seed beads going around the back of the neck. Beads feed thru a channel on the pendant; endless strand has no clasp but will easily go over your head. Very nicely done, quite contemporary piece, probably made within the last 10-15 years. Item: SN12-642 Price: $45.00 US ![]() |

Description: Bogoff Clear Rhinestone Brooch - Bogoff brooches are much more rare than necklaces, bracelets, or earrings. This one is in wonderful original condition EXCEPT that the stones have yellowed. This could, of course, be restoned, but if you like things to look aged, well, here it is. Priced accordingly. 3" x 1 3/4". Item: SP12-523 Price: $24.50 US ![]() |

Description: Trifari Cote D'Azur Hinged Bangle Bracelet - From 1977, this was part of an ad campaign of the mid-1970's that used a slogan about the "Most Extravagant" pieces made in a certain price point - this originally sold for $16.50. Done in white enamel and goldtone, this piece is in excellent condition, with only a few minute chips to the enamel along the edges. At 2" x 1 3/4", this is best for a small wrist. Signed Trifari with a crown and copyright symbol. Item: SB12-1083 Price: $27.50 US ![]() |
Description: Vendome Dangling Bead Brooch - All done in goldtone beads, this uses barrel beads in two sizes, and larger goldtone crimp beads are ingeniously incorporated into the design, both as a border around the center bead and as separators between the barrel beads on the top "wheel". The barrel beads have a kind of engine-turned finish that is very attractive. About 3 1/4" x 1 7/16". Excellent condition. Item: SP12-886 Price: $29.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Vendome Brown Art Glass Bead Earrings - These earrings use many specialty beads, with an almost carnival glass look to a barrel and a round bead, plus copper and grey glass pearls, and medium topaz and medium topaz AB crystal beads. Most of the beads are held in place with rhinestone head pins, with the largest bead sporting filigree endcaps and a collar of crimp beads around one of the crystal beads. Typical Vendome screw clip mechanism is signed Vendome. About 1 1/8" x 1", excellent condition, very three dimensional. Item: SE12-887 Price: $39.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
Description: Trifari Sterling Vermeil Fur Clip with Aqua and Clear Stones - The most lovely, in my opinion, of all of the retro designs that Trifari did in the 1940's, this is, oddly, not a design that I can find a patent number for, and there is no number on the piece. Marked crown Trifari on the fur clip mechanism, the word sterling is tiny but there, on the back of longest paved tendril. Condition - excellent. The tiny clears are much whiter and uniform than my picture would indicate, the aqua unfoiled stones are unchipped. There is mild wear to the vermeil along the edges of the voluted sections, and one small (2mm) nick, as seen in the closeup photo, that is only visible when the piece is held at a certain angle and is not noticeable when worn. 3 1/8" x 2", very dimensional. I have this identical piece in my personal collection and it never fails to get compliments when worn. Item: SF12-1165 Price: $220.00 US ![]() |

Description: Trifari Paved Goldtone Floral Earrings - Difficult to find earrings. These match a Trifari necklace that uses the flowers as the clasp, and the rest of the necklace is 2-3 strands of pearls or other beads. (There are probably a bracelet and brooch as well but I have not seen them, though I have seen a similar brooch). These earrings are just shy of 1 1/2" in either direction, typical crown Trifari with copyright symbol earrings findings. Very good but not excellent condition as the clear rhinestones have uniformly dulled with age, not badly but just enough that I cannot call it excellent. Otherwise no issues, all stones original. Item: SE12-1169 Price: $29.50US |
Description: Hattie Carnegie "Press and Glow" Light Up Tree in Original Box - One of the ultimate finds for a tree collector and for those who love Hattie. I do not know whether this will work or not as I have not been able to find the correct battery; I am assuming the original battery would have been a hearing aid battery?? Anyway an added plus is the original presentation box, and all appear to be in excellent condition. Pin that holds the cover to the battery shut is a little loose but could be adjusted once you find the correct battery. Item: SP12-415 Price: $125.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Vendome Black Bead Earrings - A typical clustered bead earring for this company, using black crystal beads, goldtone leaves, a collar of wired crimp beads, and rhinestone headpins for part of the beads. Usual screw-clip findings are marked Vendome. Goldtone setting, 1 1/8" x 1". Excellent condition. Item: SE12-888 Price: $12.50US |
Description: Trifari Yellow Briolette Brooch - These pieces are referred to as "briolette" even though the crystal bead is actually kind of a cross between a bead and a rhinestone, with the back flattened. These pieces sparkle like crazy and the colors are intense. This is more of a citrine yellow, set in goldtone. Marked crown Trifari with copyright, 2 1/2" x 1 1/8". This is the hardest color to find, except for the clear and the black, which aren't nearly as showy and apparently didn't sell well. Excellent condition, wonderful piece. Item: SP12-894 Price: $89.50 US |

Description: Trifari Black and Pearl Cabochon Bypass Bracelet - For a lot of gals, black and white combinations are a staple of their wardrobe, and this would go perfectly with them. Black cabochons run down the center, with white glass pearl oval cabs on either side. Bracelet is 7" x 1 3/8" at the bypass portion, goldtone, excellent condition. Marked crown Trifari and copyright on the foldover clasp. Very stylish on. Item: SB12-895 Price: $49.50US ![]() |
Description: Trifari Starflight Earrings in Clear Rhinestones - A well known and sought after design, this series was done in both colors/clear and all clear and is sometimes referred to as Fireworks. These are done in two layers, riveted together with tiny rivets and the top layer is smaller than the bottom. All clear rhinestones, set in silvertone, usual clip findings for this time period. 1" x 5/8", excellent condition. Item: SE12-1085 Price: $39.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Trifari Clear Rhinestone Brooch and Earrings Set with Navettes and Rounds - Trifari made many pieces using thinner marquises (aka "skinny" navettes) that gave a look of sophistication and elegance to early 1960's pieces that most other companies did not have. All things Parisian were considered very chic in the US, with Jackie Bouvier Kennedy's influence on the fashion community, many French couteriers became even more well known than they were previously. This brooch's pinstem is set so that the piece is to be worn vertically, as in the individual picture, and the frond part of the earring goes up the ear, also as shown in the individual picture. The brooch is 2 3/4" x 1 1/2" at the widest point, earrings are 1" x 3/4". Silvertone, rhodium plate, earrings use usual clip finding. Excellent condition with just a hint of yellow in 1-2 navettes. Item: SS12-1168 Price: $49.50US ![]() |
Description: ART Candle Christmas Tree - Shown in Trowbridge, Gallina 2nd edition, and Morrison, this uses a two layered design very similar to the one above, but fills it in with filigree and accents with multicolored "balls" in blue, green, topaz, clear and orange, with clear baguette "candles". The clears in this piece showing aging, otherwise excellent condition. 2" x 1 1/2". Item: SPRLS12-98 Price: $45.00 US |

Description: Trifari Goldtone/Glass Pearl and Rhinestone Brooch - Another variation of a well known 1960's piece, this uses creamy glass pearls and tiny clear rhinestones. Excellent condition, 2 1/2" x 1 3/8", signed Trifari with crown and copyright symbol. Matte goldtone leaves, shiny goldtone stems. Beautiful, graceful design. Item: SP12-1170 Price: $34.50US |

Description: Bogoff Pave Set Clear Rhinestone Hoops - These look as stylish and elegant today as they did 50+ years ago when they were first made. MUCH more sparkly in person, these use all round clear rhinestones except for a row of channel set baguettes at the top. Silvertone setting, clip back, excellent condition. 1 1/4" x 7/8". Item: SP12-899 Price: $28.50US |

Description: Trifari Glass Pearl and Goldtone Leaf Necklace and Clip Earrings Set - Trifari made many pearl set pieces, particularly in the early 1960's, when American women began working outside the home in much larger numbers than anytime previously (except for WWII). Jewelry appropriate for the workplace was popular, and pearls were considered ladylike and businesslike at the same time. Styles ranged from plain, ultraconservative pieces, to higher end "work of art" pieces, such as this set. Link style necklace has a dozen paste set glass pearls in each link, for a total of 96 pearls in the necklace alone. The necklace is curved for a better fit and adjusts up to 18"; matching clip earrings are 1 1/8" x 1". Excellent condition, this is a very flattering set. This design is called "Pine Lake" and was one of the necklaces shown in the Christmas Booty ad from 1960, originally priced at $10.00. Wear this to a MadMen party and absorb the compliments! Item: SS12-1171 Price: $79.50/Set US ![]() |
Description: Vendome Clear RS Earrings in Japanned Setting - Each of these clip earrings looks kind of like half of a bow. Always fashionable blackened setting with pave set clear rhinestones (much more sparkly in person than this photo would indicate.) Usual Vendome adjustable clip findings, 1" x 3/4" Item: SE12-378 Price: $22.50 US |

Description: Trifari Sterling 1940's Earclips - Rectangular step cut glass stones in golden topaz are flanked by clear rhinestone borders. Typical ear findings for the 1940's, these are often identified as dress clips but they have no prongs so they are definitely earrings. 5/8" x 1/2". Signed Sterling on the body of the earrings and Trifari with crown on the clip findings. What appears to be pitting on the back of the earrings is microscopic to non-existent in person. Excellent condition. Item: SE12-1089 Price: $42.50 US ![]() |
Description: Vendome Chandelier Bead Earrings - Who says vintage looks old fashioned? Argented (silver metallic coated) clear crystal beads dangle in a pyramidal design, suspended from an argented cupcake rivoli bead with a single clear rhinestone in the center. Usual Vendome screw-clip mechanism. 2" x 1". Perfect for any dressy occasion. Item: SE12-134 Price: $27.50 US |

Description: Eisenberg Original Clear Rhinestone "Shield" Fur Clip - Huge and beautiful, this 3" x 2 3/4" sparkler features dentelle rounds, pears, ovals, octagons and bell shapes. Signed Eisenberg Original and stone setter's mark "D" in circle. I was unable to find a patent for this design but since this is not sterling I would date this to early 1942 or prior. Slight greying to the pears, the two small ovals are a little yellow but otherwise the piece is in excellent condition. Item: SF12-1256 Price: $225.00US ![]() |
Description: Engle Brothers (EB) Sterling Necklace and Earrings Set - EB pieces often have a deco era look to them, though personally I think these pieces are from the 1940's. This set uses a feature that is not uncommon to EB necklaces, a double clasp, so that presumably you could buy one back chain (very nice flattened cobra chain) and use it interchangeably with various front sections. This uses lime green pears and clear rhinestones set into little leaf shapes, with a center clear dentelle stone, and two navettes flanking the lowest green pear. Choker length, this is about 15 1/2", a little hard to measure accurately because of the curve of the front, two foldover clasps. Clasps are marked sterling and EB in a diamond shape, and the center part is marked sterling on the back of the lowest pear. The earrings are both marked sterling on the earscrews and on the body of the earrings, so it is easy to see if the rhinestone part became separated from the neckchain that there would be no defining EB marks (though stylistically these pieces are pretty identifiable.) All the sterling has been rhodium plated, absolutely no signs of tarnish, and the set is in excellent shape, with one clear navette starting to turn yellow. The earrings are particularly exquisite.

Description: Weiss Clear Dentelle and Baguette Rhinestone Necklace - It has recently come to light that the Eisenberg and Weiss necklaces that use the "keyhole" adjustable clasp were manufactured by the same subcontractor, so if you think it is difficult to tell by looking which company's name will be on the clasp, well, that's why. This beautiful Weiss piece uses two rows of large (9mm) dentelles, with alternating pairs separated by a set of two baguettes. Slightly smaller stones are used to taper off the center motif and on the standard back chains. Adjustable to a maximum of about 17 1/2", this sparkler is in excellent condition with only the tiniest bit of yellowing to the baguettes. Rhodium plated. Blinding! Item: SN12-1095 Price: $99.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
Description: Miracle Multi Colored Faux Agate Brooch - At 1 1/4" in diameter, this makes a great piece for those whose taste is for smaller, or to use in less conventional manners. Excellent original condition, featuring "tooth" stones and a center round cabochon, as well as Celtic design on the metal work. Item: SP12-449 Price: $14.50 US |

Description: Bogoff Green and Clear Rhinestone Necklace and Earrings Set - Set in rhodium plating, this pretty link style choker and earrings feature a four petaled "flower" done in emerald green rounds with a single clear at the center, alternating with a link set with two more green rhinestones on the necklace. Earrings also have the flower motif surmounted by a single large dentelle in green and terminated on the other end with a set of three green rhinestones and a single clear on the very tip. Only the necklace is marked, on the back of the large dentelle that is typically at the end of the chain on these necklaces; earrings would have been marked on the clip finding, however someone appears to have converted these to pierced (though these are so well done that it is hard to tell if it wasn't actually done in the factory.) Necklace adjusts to about 16" maximum, 1/2" wide. Earrings are 1 1/2" dangle. Excellent condition, with one or two clears with a tiny bit of yellowing. Everything looks original, beautiful set. Item: SS12-1219 Price: $99.50 US Sorry, SOLD! ![]() ![]() |
Description: Staret Clear Rhinestone Bracelet - Wide and heavy, this features a push-in hidden clasp uses rows of large rhinestones alternating with rhinestone set bars. 7 1/4" x 1". Silvertone setting, signed Staret on the back of the center link, 12 links in all provide nice articulation and fit. The hidden clasp can be found by looking for the one large rhinestone that looks like a rhinestone set button! Condition: very good, with the large stones uniformly yellowing, though this is not seen in not bright lights, and still has lots of sparkle and glam. A lovely piece from a not-common company.

Description: Eisenberg Original Clear Rhinestone "Egg" Fur Clip - Marked Eisenberg Original and stonesetter's mark "20" in circle, with usual two-hole fur clip mechanism, this is 2 3/4" x 1 1/2" and in excellent original condition. Unusual to find all original pave work in such nice shape. Item: SF12-1255 Price: $195.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |
Description: Eisenberg Light Sapphire Blue and Clear Rhinestone Floral Brooch - Large dentelles in two different sizes are accented with pears and marquises, all in light blue, and clear rhinestones. Blue rhinestones are all prong set, rhodium plating. 2 1/4" x 1 5/8", signed Eisenberg in small block letters and stem has "551"? and possibly another number that wasn't well struck. Gorgeous stones, excellent condition. (The little orange square in the larger pear must be a reflection, it is not there in person.) Item: SP12-1254 Price: $79.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
