The "Retirement" Room

We have recently had the good fortune to consign the Christmas pin collection of a major US collector, of which a good percentage were Eisenberg pieces, many are no longer available from the company and some of these rarely, if ever, appear on ebay or other sites. While this collector had a few duplicates, the vast majority of these pieces are one-of-a-kinds and range from somewhat common to extremely rare. We have tried to price these, for the most part, at original price, though the most rare ones will be considerably higher. If you are an Eisenberg tree collector you will want to avail yourself of this unusual opportunity, as for the most part everything is priced well below collector book values.

Description: Eisenberg Green Rhinestone Series 500-01 Christmas Tree Pin - Style 500-01 is one of the styles that has been in the Eisenberg inventory for many years; this is one of the older versions, and is shown in almost every collector book of Christmas pins. Emerald green rhinestones in two sizes are surrounded by "hobnails", 2" x 1 3/8". Signature is the old block EISENBERG signature. Excellent condition, hobnails are NOT worn (this is a camera reflection). We have two available.

Description: Eisenberg Classics Brooch in Amey/Montana/Clear Rhinestones - Again, this is obviously not a Christmas tree, and while it is a design still in production by Eisenberg I am putting this in this portion of the website because this shows mild use. Presentation box shows slight wear along the edges and romance card is slightly gummy as if some glue had been spilled? The brooch is in excellent condition except for mild plating wear on the long section of the back (see second photo.) None of this affects the outward appearance of this piece; the original owner did not wear her pieces and I can only attribute this extremely mild wear to this piece being admired in the box. At 4" x 2" this is a sizeable piece, all of the colored stones are unfoiled and prong set; all the clears are paste set and are very "white" and sparkly. I believe the stones here are Montana blue (a more navy color than sapphire) but look more blue than normal because they are unfoiled. I have priced this at 20% off original price due to these minor "flaws". (If you would like one like this that is brand new, just let me know, I'd be happy to special order it for you.

If you love red either as a primary or accent color in your wardrobe, you will enjoy this piece. Lovely enough for an evening out but subtle enough to wear to the office.
