Description: Nettie Rosenstein Jonquil/Clear Floral Brooch - Ms. Rosenstein's pieces are rare but always worth the effort! This classic (and classy) piece done with a pave set center ball in jonquil (light yellow) rhinestone, with a larger stone in jonquil set on the top. The radiating leaves are all pave set with clear rhinestones, in silvertone, with the rest in goldtone, as per fine jewelry. Alternating leaves on lower level are all goldtone. Signed Nettie Rosenstein in script, this measures 2" in diameter and is curved for a realistic 3-D effect. Excellent condition with very slight aging on the clear pave. When you need elegant, here it is. Item: SP10-650 Price: $125.00 US |

Description: Weiss Aqua Rhinestone Wreath Earrings - Actually my color perception on these changes with the lighting, sometimes they almost appear light blue rather than aqua; I have taken two shots, one with flash and one without, so you can see the variation . Larger rounds got in a circle, separated by little sections of tiny rounds in single rows, like rhinestone chain but it doesn't appear to be. All stones are prong set, silvertone setting. Clip mechanisms, 1" in diameter. Marked Weiss on the clipbacks. Very good condition with minimal aging to a few of the stones. Item: SE10-870 Price: $37.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Accessocraft NYC Art Glass Brooch - I'm not sure whether this would be considered Murano glass, or what, but art glass oval cabochons in shades of navy, red, white, olive green and aqua surrounda goldtone center crest with a crown motif. Goldtone setting, 1 3/4" in diameter, excellent condition. From what I have been able to find online, this "heraldic" type of motif is not uncommon for this company, which was in business from 1930-1998, and whose plethora of designers included Anne Klein. Perfect for those with understated taste.We got a bargain, so do you. Item: SP10-808 Price: $16.50 US |

Link necklace has adjustable chain and will fit up to a 16" neck (could be extended farther if needed). Brooch is 2 1/8" in diameter but looks larger because of the density of the materials used.

Description: Coro Cameo Bracelet and Brooch Set - I am guessing these to be some of the jewelry produced around the time of the release of the movie "Gone With the Wind" in the very late 1930's - early 1940's. Both cameos in a classic woman's profile are done on a black glass background, but the brooch appears to have a matte finish plastic head while the smaller cameo in the bracelet appears to be of molded glass. While there is a slight difference in the appearance of the cameos, I think it has to do with the size difference and small details due to the size difference - these are obviously meant to match. Antiqued goldtone frames are identical. Brooch measures 1 3/4" x 1 3/8", and is about 1/2" deep. Bracelet is a little over 7" with the foldover clasp. Center part measures 1 3/8" x 1 1/8". Both pieces marked Coro in script. $45.00/set Item: SS10-114 Price: $45.00 US  |

Description: Mazer Swirl Brooch-Pendant - A truly exceptional piece just feels different. This lovely design is done with two sizes of round clear rhinestones, clear baguettes, tapered baguettes and cushion-cut square rhinestones, and finished in heavy rhodium plate. All stones are original, two pave rhinestones are missing and I will replace if you would prefer, though I would recommend leaving as is. Slight darkening on a few of the pave stones, and one of the cushion cut squares has yellowed slightly. Can be worn as a brooch or added to a chain as a pendant (self-bail on reverse). 2 3/4" x 1 1/2" at widest points and is 3-D. From my personal collection. Shown in at least one well-known jewelry book. Item: SP10-115 Price: $165.00 US |

Description: Vendome Two Strand Tiffany Ball and Black Glass Bead Necklace - Known for its beads as well as exquisite rhinestone pieces, Vendome always displays quality workmanship. This was hard to measure but is an adjustable nested style where the bottom strand plus the extension is about 20", so this should fit most people, and the tail could be added to if you need more length. Fancy rhinestone set clasp and trademark fleur-di-lis dangle shown in 2nd picture. I have replaced some missing rhinestones on the Tiffany balls. Item: SN10-445 Price: $35.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Weiss Red, Green and Clear Christmas Tree Pin - This piece is shown in Mary Morrison's Christmas Tree book on p. 88, and even though she thinks this design might be a repro, she has it valued in the $85-135 range! I have priced this MUCH less, partly because it has a solder repair at the upper end of the clasp, and a few clears in the vicinity of the repair aren't as sparkly as the others (see closeup photo.) Not noticeable unless you are looking for it. The tree measures about 2 3/4" x 2", set in silvertone. Item: SP10-805 Price: $45.00 US  |

Description: Vendome Light Colorado Topaz AB Crystal and Glass Pearl Earrings - Accented with tiny goldtone leaves and using Vendome's characteristic screw-clip mechanism, these are about 1" in diameter. Very feminine and in excellent, if not perfect, condition. Item: SE10-400 Price: $15.00 US |

Description: M&S Gold Filled Retro Pin-Pendant and Earring Set - This lovely set, with an intriguing "stepped" design, came to me as a pin-pendant (without a chain) and earrings, so I have added a round 1940's snake chain, which can easily be removed with a pair of pliers, for those who would like to use this as a pendant necklace. The colored stones are purple unfoiled emerald cut glass stones and clear rhinestones, with all stones prong set. The earrings are screwback and measure 1 1/8" x 1/2"; the pendant is 3" x 1 1/2" at the widest points, but looks very delicate with its airy design. The added chains make about a 20" necklace. Item: SS10-272 Price: $49.50 US |

Description: Coro Faux Blue Moonstone and Rhinestone Bunch of Grapes Pin - A popular style for Coro, this is for all the grape nuts out there! Faux grey-blue moonstone beads are set into silvertone and accented with a paved clear rhinestone leaf on the left; same style, in dark blue moonstone beads, on the right. 2" x 1 1/2" at widest points. I have seen this converted to a pendant by adding a jump-ring in the upper loop. $24.00/either color Item: SP10-124 (dark blue) Price: $24.00 US Item: SP10-124A (light blue) Price: $24.00 US |

Description: BSK Seashell Pin - Done in a satin goldtone finish with a paved rhinestone silvertone center, this three dimensional pin measures approximately 2" x 1 3/4" x 1/2" deep.

All stones are prong set, goldtone setting, 1 3/4" x 3/4". Clip mechanisms are marked Weiss. Excellent condition. This is one of the "looks" that Weiss was known for.

Description: Mazer Bros Topaz Rhinestone Bracelet - A lovely and wearable "line" type bracelet that alternates prongset baguettes and stepped cut square stones (these actually have squared corners so would be considered octagonal). The square stones are a slightly more intense shade of topaz so that the bracelet is more interesting looking. Though the piece is goldtone, the pave set clasp is silvertone (just like fine jewelry) and the foldover connector is also rhinestone set. Safety chain looks to be original, with a "thumbless" spring ring. Wearable length is just shy of 7". Outside of plating wear on the backside where it would rub against the skin, I see no problems here. All stones are original. Item: SB10-701 Price: $49.50 US |

Description: Kirk's Folly 3 Strand Intense Teal Rhinestone Bracelet - Kirk's Folly has been around for a lot longer than its QVC run, and this almost certainly is one of their earlier pieces. Three rows of large rhinestone chain set with really beautiful teal rhinestones in an unusual coppery grey plating. 6 5/8" x 5/8" wide, sizeable foldover clasp with Kirk's Folly in script on cartouche. Excellent condition. Item: SB10-745 Price: $79.50 US  |

Description: Weiss Black Diamond and Clear Rhinestone Earrings - A classic color and design for Weiss, this has large 11mm (almost 1/2") rounds, prong set, with clear pave swirls. Silvertone setting, marked Weiss on the clip mechanisms. About 7/8" x 7/16", slightly curved. Excellent condition and much more lovely in person than my picture can convey. Item: SE10-874 Price: $27.50 US |

Description: Weiss Arum Rhinestone Bow Brooch - Not many companies used metallic rhinestones, but Weiss did, and is justly known for the gold metallic stones called "arum" which they used. Goldtone setting, the bow is set with all the same size rounds. 2 1/4" x 1 1/2". Excellent condition. Hollycraft was one of the manufacturers who subcontracted for Weiss, and this looks like it was probably made by them. Item: SP10-875 Price: $49.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
