Description: Coro Light Blue Rhinestone Necklace and Earrings Set - I am not sure that these aren't faux alexandrite; they are beautiful intense blue stones, and elicit a small color change in different lights (please see pictures, all taken in different lighting, no flash). Necklace alternates large ovals and floral motif pieces,earrings use the ovals around the edge with the floral piece on top. Clip findings, silvertone. Necklace is adjustable, up to 16 1/2", 3/8" wide. Earrings are 1" in diameter, and about 1/2" deep. Excellent condition. Item: SS8-1138 Price: $59.50/set US Sorry, SOLD!    |

Description: Joan Rivers Demi Hoop Earrings in Black and Brown Enamel and Rhinestones - Black and red-brown enamel alternate along these hoops, separated by goldtone strips, and set with opposing rhinestones (black diamond in the red-brown enamel, Madiera topaz rhinestones in the black enamel). I guess we're going for a ying-yang effect here! These are really pretty, well made, and have the padded clip back that made these comfortable for clip wearers. Excellent if not mint condition. Domed, 1/2" wide, 1" tall, 5/8" deep. Always good quality. Item: SE8-1180 Price: $25.00 US  |

Description: Dalsheim Rhinestone Ball Earrings - Another rarely seen name. These clip earrings each use 7 seven mm clear rhinestone balls to surround a ten mm center rhinestone ball. About 1" in diameter; a very pretty, feminine look that is complimentary to most people. Item: SE8-084 Price: $26.50 US |

Description: Kramer "Barberpole" Clear Rhinestone Earrings - These were sparkly enough that the camera simply didn't know where to focus on the first shot, please see the lower picture for a better idea. Individual pronged rhinestones are set in a curved line over a cylindrical frame - please note these aren't rhinestone chain, but actually individual stones that go entirely around the 3-D cylinder design. The cylinder then is attached to a metal frame to hold it to the clip part. Signed Kramer on the ear clip mechanism, which has a keyhole top. 1 1/8" x 3/8" x 1/2" deep. I believe I saw the matching necklace online once and it was pretty incredible. A rare design for this company. Item: SE8-859 Price: $49.50 US |

Description: Trifari Pink/Black Diamond/PinkAB Rhinestone Earrings - Another, more elaborate Contessa series style, this uses rose pink and black diamond rounds and marquises, with a single pink AB round on each earring. Large black diamond rounds are dentelles. 1 1/8" x 7/8", silvertone setting, excellent condition. Note that they have used the top of the line ear clip finding for this design. Item: SE8-1071 Price: $32.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Jomaz Enamel, Rhinestone and Faux Turquoise Brooch and Earring Set - The epitome of early 1960's glamour, this set features cream and aqua enamel, clear rhinestone pave and glass faux turquoise cabochons. Brooch measures 2 3/4" x 1 1/4"; clip earrings are 1 1/8" x 3/4". Goldtone setting, close to mint condition, truly elegant, in the style of Jacqueline Kennedy. If you love fashion from this era, it really doesn't get much better than this. Item: SS8-554 Price: $195.00 US |

Description: Staret Large Dress Clip with Blue Center Stone - Large prong set unfoiled medium blue glass oval stone is unusually large. Surrounded by a clear rhinestones set design, with a single blue marquise at the bottom. Silvertone setting, 2 5/8" x 2 1/8". Very good vintage condition, with mild aging to some of the clears.

Description: West German Cameo Necklace and Earring Set - Pendant necklace and earrings are centered with a prongset applied cameo over a faux tortoiseshell base. Filigree setting uses paste set small white pearls and smoky topaz rhinestones. Earrings are clip, 1" x 7/8", goldtone setting with clip findings marked W. Germany. Pendant is 2" in diameter, suspended from a fancy 24" chain with a pearl set safety clasp. Excellent condition. Item: SS8-811 Price: $47.50/set US |

Description: KJL White Lucite? Rose Pin and Earrings Set - A well-known design for this company, this uses an opaque white plastic for the rose blossom with a paved center, border on the black enamel leaves, and on the stem on the brooch. The brooch's rose is slightly more white in some lights than the earrings, and the pieces are marked slightly differently - the earrings are marked with a copyright symbol and KJL on both the clip mechanism and the back of the earring; the brooch is also marked with the copyright symbol and KJL but the goldtone setting underneath the pinstem actually says Korea! which apparently means it was made for QVC. Brooch is 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"; earrings are about 1" in diameter. Item: SS8-555 Price: $72.50 US |

Description: Eisenberg Aqua and Clear Rhinestone Adjustable Choker Necklace - This is a bluer aqua than usual, halfway in between aqua and light sapphire. Center is done with marquises and rounds with the remaining done in all rounds. All stones prong set except for tiny clear pave. Silvertone, probably rhodium plated setting, keyhole clasp, adjustable to 16 1/4", 1" at widest point. Excellent condition. Item: SN8-1251 Price: $145.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Coro Clear RS Floral Spray - This piece is signed Coro in script and has Pat. No. 125883, which would put the design patent at early 1941 with the patent owner listed as Gene Verricchio. Measuring 3 1/2" x 1 3/4" at the widest points and done in all clear rhinestones in rounds and oval shapes, this piece is showing some signs of aging; the smaller ovals at the top of third stem from the right have darkened, and the larger ovals have small amounts of foil loss along faceting lines due to being in open back setting; however, they are NOT dark. All of the piece is pave set, and a few of the small stones have darkened, and a few have been replaced. All in all, however, not at all bad for a piece over 60 years old. The wonderful design is yours for $45.00. Item: SP8-086 Price: $45.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Trifari Sterling Tortoise Jelly Belly Brooch - At least I think he's a tortoise. Book piece. Marked Crown Trifari and Sterling and Des. Pat. No. 185170. Produced in 1943. The belly portion is Lucite that has turned yellow-gold, for unknown reasons, presumably age (yes, Lucite can turn yellow, according to plastics expert Karima Parry's book on bakelite bangles.) A few of the missing pave rhinestones were missing and I have replaced them. 2 1/4" x 1 3/8". Item: SP8-265 Price: $275.00 US |

Description: Kramer of NY Topaz/Clear Rhinestone Floral Earrings - Even prettier in person, these all prong set stone earrings are in a stylized floral design, with topaz colored rhinestone pear petals and clear round rhinestone center. Goldtone setting, top quality clip backs are marked Kramer of NY and a patent number for the design of the earclip mechanism. 1" in diameter. Item: SE8-861 Price: $37.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Coro "Charmian" Slide Necklace in Multi Pastel - While most people think slide necklaces are a contemporary concept, they obviously have been around awhile. The slide features a beautiful step-cut glass "blue topaz" stone, with a pink marquise, a golden oval, and a turquoise round as accents, along with goldtone floral and leaves and a single small clear. Nice goldtone chain with foldover clasp, about 15 1/2". Slide is 1 1/2" x 1 1/8". Excellent condition with both the clasp and the slide marked in script, additionally the slide signature appears to be followed by a copyright symbol, though I have found a Coro ad for this same design that is supposed to be from 1950 and was called Charmian. Item: SN8-1076 Price: $39.50 US |

Description: Coro Open Cuff Floral Bracelet - Goldtone floral is accented with leaves and a center rhinestone at the middle, with purple and clear pronged stones along each side. Opening dimensions are 2 1/2" x 2", with back opening about 1 1/8". Rounded wire. Signature is Coro in script with the Pegasus figure, which apparently dates it to around 1945, though I have found a Coro hand pin with the identical flower and leaves that was patented in 1948; I think we can safely say late 1940's, and it certainly retains a retro feel. The purple stones have a pink cast to them. Very good condition.

Description: Coro Asymmetrical Clear Rhinestone Duette - This is the only Coro duette I have seen that isn't symmetrical. The larger side is 1 7/8" x 1 1/4" at widest points, the smaller side is 1 1/4" x 1 1/8". Lovely design, with swirling cut-outs, curliques on either end, baguettes, rounds and trapezoids. Greying on the trapezoids, but for the most part I would consider the stone condition of this piece to be considerably better than most pieces of this age that are in original condition. Connector is marked Coro duette and a utility patent number. This is a rare piece for the consummate duette collector. Item: SD8-1173 Price: $99.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Kramer Aurora Borealis Earrings - A simple, very wearable style, using clear aurora borealis stones prong set in goldtone, alternating baguettes with a set of two rounds. 3/4" x 3/8", marked Kramer on the clip back. I don't know whether the clipslip cushions are original or not, but they are in very good shape, as are the rest of these earrings.

Description: Trifari Baguette and Round Rhinestone Linked Choker and Bracelet Set - A truly elegant set, probably a Philippe design, made to look like fine jewelry. Nine graduated clear baguette rhinestones are paste set in each full link (and there are 12 in the necklace, 5 full links in the bracelet, plus a divided link with foldover clasp); those links are connected by a single round rhinestone fancy cut dentelle link. Over 180 stones in this set; all set in Trifari's patented rhodium plating. Necklace has djustable hook clasp, will fit up to a 16 1/2" neck; bracelet is 7 1/4". A note to those of you interested in top notich design, the necklace has links that curve on one side to make the necklace fit the curve of the neck, while the bracelet curves outward on both sides so it will lie properly on your wrist. Obviously well thought thru by a master jeweler. The real McCoy would be thousands of dollars; you don't have to tell! While similar to the pattern "Rhapsody" from 1955, this is not the same as it uses the single round stone in between links rather than a baguette set connector. Item: SS8-294 Price: $129.50 US/set Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Napier Faux Lapis and Pink Bead Necklace and Earrings Set - Elegant and well made, this set uses dark blue faux lapis beads, pink glass wound beads, rectangular and round filigree beads and goldtone spacers. Necklace is strung on chain, spring ring clasp, and measures 36", so this could be worn long or doubled. Earrings feature the rectangular filigree bead and two blue and one pink beads for dangles. Adjustable screw clip mechanism for earrings; all pieces marked and the utility patent number for the screw clip is on the inside, however the mark on the necklace is on the heavy-duty ring at the clasp and can only be seen with magnification - I would not have found it if I hadn't been looking for it! One tiny spacer bead seems to be missing at the clasp but other than that I see no issues whatever, this is in excellent condition. Because of the style, use of chain and the screw-clip mechanism, I am guessing this set dates to the 1960's. Not that many companies used the screw clip.

Description: Bogoff Floral Necklace with Topaz & Clear Rhinestones - One of my favorite Bogoff designs, this uses topaz marquises and rounds and clear round rhinestones in a stylized floral design that alternates 3 larger and 4 smaller florals in the center front and continues the chain around in the usual Bogoff manner of using a more fancy than standard chain, this time a link chain with two clear rhinestones in each link. This culminates at the tail with the usual large dentelle with the Bogoff signature on the back, and a heavier than usual hook that was also standard for Bogoff. This is adjustable up to 16", slightly less than 1" across on the larger florals. This is done with a goldtone setting, which is much less common for this company. Excellent condition. Item: SN8-864 Price: $120.00 US Sorry, SOLD!  |

Description: Bogoff Intense Light Blue and Clear Rhinestone Bracelet and Earring Set - Absolutely stunning. Square blue stones are surrounded by clear round rhinestones in a double row on the bracelet and a curved single row for the clip earrings. Bracelet has hidden push-in clasp and safety chain, 7" x 1". Earrings are 1" x 5/8". Silvertone, excellent if not pristine condition. Top of the line Bogoff.

Description: Carol Dauplaise Long Single Strand Necklace in Aqua/Amethyst - 30" long strand with opaque turquoise colored glass beads, goldtone findings and what I am pretty certain are tumbled genuine amethyst quartz "nuggets". Nice weight; sliding typical Dauplaise locking clasp works well but you probably won't need it as this fits easily over your head. Works equally well on its own or as a layering piece. Item: SN8-556 Price: $45.00 US |

Description: Kramer "Julianaesque" Necklace/Bracelet/Earrings Demi - Though I do not think these are D&E manufactured pieces, stylistically the use of crystal beads over the top of rhinestones certainly conjures up some of the nicest of the Juliana pieces. These well-made pieces use prong set navette and round clear rhinestones, accented with crystal aurora borealis beads and pave set wings and swirls. Goldtone settings; the only piece that is marked is one of the clip earrings (see photo below) so it is easy to see why if these pieces were separated that the necklace and bracelet would be difficult to i.d. Adjustable necklace is 15 1/4" fully extended, 1" at widest point. Bracelet is 7", about 3/4" wide, foldover clasp. Clip earrings are 1 1/4" x 5/8". Other than a little stone darkening on the tips of the marquises on the earrings, I see no issues. Lovely, sparkling set. Item: SS8-1072 Price: $99.50 US   |

Description: Coro Light Blue AB Rhinestone Floral Brooch and Earring Set - This design is, I believe, a 1960's variation of an earlier Coro design that was originally done in enamel/rhinestones. This uses no enamel but has a silvertone setting with all light sapphire aurora borealis rhinestones. Brooch is 3" x 1 1/4"; matching clip earrings are 1 1/4" x 5/8". Excellent condition except for very small plating loss at crook of stem. Because of the position of the pin stem the brooch should perhaps be worn "upside down". Item: SS8-602 Price: $29.50/set US |

Description: Sarah Coventry Fashion Flower Brooch & Earrings Set - One of SC's most popular sets because it uses red aurora borealis rhinestones, this light goldtone set uses a floral motif that is very three dimensional. Using curved filigree pieces as petals and centering the pieces with round siam AB rhinestones, each piece has a large stone in the center, and the brooch has a single stone accenting the open leaves. The brooch is 3 7/8" x 1 3/4" x 1/2+" deep. Earrings are 1 1/8" in diameter and about 1/2" deep (I believe these are the smaller of the two earring styles that match this design series). Clip findings and back of the brooch are all marked SARAHCOV with a copyright symbol. As with almost all SC pieces, these are in excellent original condition. Item: SS8-863 Price: $34.50/set US |

Description: Lisner Purple Translucent Leaves Demi-Parure - Necklace, earrings and brooch in light and dark purple, set in goldtone and accented with purple and purple aurora borealis rhinestones. All paste set, necklace is an adjustable choker, link style, up to 16" and 3/4" wide. Earrings are clip, 1 1/4" x 1", brooch is 3 5/8" x 1 1/2". Excellent condition, one leaf at the back of the necklace is a not exact replacement but is difficult to find even with close examination. This is a gorgeous and hard to find demi in a very sought after genre. Item: SS8-1237 Price: $245.00/demi US Sorry, SOLD!   |

Description: Trifari Chalk White "Parquet" Earrings - This circa 1960's design was also done in black/white and probably other colors as well. Clip, goldtone, 7/8" diameter, excellent condition. Any green in the picture is a reflection. Item: SE8-1238 Price: $17.50 US |

Description: Crown Trifari Sterling "Dreamshell" Fur Clip - From 1947, the advertisement blurb says "Jewels by Trifari are such exquisite fashion pieces they are usually thought to be real jewels". Notice the rolling clasp for one side of the fur clip that was used by Trifari in the late 1940's. Marked (crown) Trifari on clip mechanism and sterling/pat. pend. on the back edges. Clear rhinestone rounds and baguettes around a glass pearl cabochon in ivory. Slight clouding to some of the rounds, baguettes are excellent, and a very tiny ding to the pearl. Overall very good condition. Item: SF8-1239 Price: $145.00 US |

Description: Trifari Black Diamond and Clear Rhinestone Bracelet - Top of the line late 1950's link bracelet with tons of stones. Black diamond rhinestone ovals line the edges with clear rhienstone pave x's at the center. Safety chain, wide pave set foldover clasp says Copyright by (crown) Trifari, a mark used on only a few bracelet designs. Heavy rhodium plating, substantial feel, this is all original and in very good condition, with slight aging to the clear pave. 7" x 3/4". I had the matching necklace and earrings a few years ago; these pieces rarely come along. Item: SB8-1241 Price: $195.00 US |

Description: Trifari Memo to a Smart Woman (1961) Brooch in Olive and Topaz Rhinestone - Set in goldtone, this is one of the harder to find color combinations for this series, and is one of the prettiest. Marked (crown) Trifari (no copyright symbol but this certainly post dates 1955). Done in topaz marquises and green rounds, all paste set. 2 1/4" x 1 1/4". Excellent condition. Item: SP8-1242 Price: $79.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Trifari Enamel/Rhinestone Floral Fur Clip - From February, 1940, Pat. # 119105, this was done in pastel colors as well as this more "primary"color combination. 2 3/8" x 2". This has had some re-enameling on the stems but the rest looks to be original. Small ding in enamel on one leaf, stones look good. Item: SF8-1243 Price: $99.50 US |

Description: Trifari (Crown) Fuchsia and Black Diamond Rhinestone Floral Brooch - I have had this in other color combinations and as part of a parure, here is your opportunity to purchase it as a "single". About 2 5/8" x 2", pewtery look finish. Fuchsia ovals with black diamond pave. Excellent condition. Item: SP8-1244 Price: $185.00 US |
