Hollycraft
Originally known as The Hollywood Jewelry Company, Hollycraft sold under their own name and also manufactured for several other companies, including Weiss. Hollycraft is one of the few companies that, at least in the 1950's, dated their jewelry with the year of manufacture. Known for a distinctive mix of small stones and particularly sought after for their pastel combinations and Christmas tree brooches, Hollycraft remains one of my favorite brands. Hollycraft ceased production in the 1960's.

Description: Hollycraft Japanned Dangle Earrings with Clear Rhinestones - I guess the title about sums these up! Clip earrings use a "fleurette" at both the top and the center of the earring, with leaves at the bottom, all paste set with clear stones. Top to bottom measurement 1 3/8" by 1" at widest point. Hollycraft mark is somewhat difficult to read but perhaps you can see it in the picture at the bottom of the fleurette on the dangle portion. No year given so these are probably 1960's. Item: SE4-592 Price: $17.50 US |

Description: Hollycraft 1950 Multi Pastel Rhinestone Brooch - Of all the lines of jewelry that Hollycraft produced there are probably no more sought after pieces than the multi pastel pieces. This uses pink, aqua, mint green and intense yellow stones, with a large faux alexandrite oval in the center - this looks lavender in some lights and light blue in others. Goldtone setting, 1 1/8" x 7/8". Excellent condition. Signed Hollycraft in a horseshoe plaque on one side and copr.1950 on the other. Item: SP4-603 Price: $29.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Hollycraft 1954 Earrings with Arumed Rhinestones - Apparently for a short period of time Hollycraft produced pieces for themselves and for Weiss using arum (gold metallic) rhinestones set in goldtone metal. This produces a very lovely, subtle effect of sparkle without glitz. Clip mechanisms, about 1" x 5/8". Item: SE4-203 Price: $27.50 US |

Description: Hollycraft Clear Rhinestone Earrings - Actually I have seen very little clear rhinestone Hollycraft! These certainly exhibit all the design quality and craftsmanship that you find in any colored rhinestone piece. The clip earrings are 1" x 3/4" and are silvertone and quite dimensional. All stones appear to be original and only the marquises exhibit a very slight yellowing. Nice quality and excellent condition. Item: SS11-221 Price: $25.00 US |
