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 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: Coro Necklace with Grey Faux Moonstone Cabochons, Pink Rhinestones and Pink Givre Teardrop Stones - This piece is a typical style for Coro for the 1950's but the color combination and unusual stones is a little out of the ordinary for this company. Oval cabochons alternate with rhinestones and "givre" art glass stones - clear glass shot with a cloud of pink thru the center. Adjustable to 16", excellent condition. Grey moonstones appear to have a bluish cast in certain lights. Item: SN12-408 Price: $32.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |

Description: Lisner Thermoplastic Leaf Necklace - A "summer" necklace from Lisner in coral, butterscotch and taupe leaf shapes in light goldtone. Everything is intact and excellent condition except for the "weight" at the end of the tail. Adjustable up to 16". Thanks to Suzanne Klein's book on plastics, these pieces should appreciate in value. Item: SN12-409 Price: $22.50 US |

Description: BSK My Fair Lady Black Enameled Hat - As you can see from the picture there is also enameling in yellow, peach, orange, olive green and cream, with clear rhinestone accents. Enameling is worn at the high points. About 1 1/2" in diameter, goldtone. Of all the pieces that BSK manufactured, the MFL pieces, made as memorabilia for sale in theatres when this motion picture was released starring Audrey Hepburn, are probably the most sought after, with the hats commemorating Eliza's "triumph" at Ascot. Item: SP12-419 Price: $24.50 US |

Description: BSK My Fair Lady Open Parasol Pin - One of the more difficult to find pieces in this series, the parasol came in both an open and closed version. Black and white enamel with clear rhinestones, goldtone setting. Very good original condition except that the white enamel has some bubbles in it and the enamelist got some black "strings" on the white in one section that almost look like tiny cracks but are not. Very minor factory flaws only noticeable under a loupe but price reflects. Piece shows little if any wear marks. 2 1/4" x 1 5/8". Item: SP12-457 Price: $39.50 US |
•••
|
Description: BSK My Fair Lady Cream Enameled Hat - The cream version of the above hat SP12-419, this is in only fair to good shape as the enamel on the crown is badly ding-ed. When I got this it appeared that someone had tried to cover up the dings with nail polish, which I have removed as much as possible. The flaws actually look much worse in the picture than in person, but I have priced this very reasonably reflecting this. 1 1/2" x 1 3/8", goldtone setting. Item: SP12-456 Price: $15.00 US |
|
•••
  |
Description: BSK My Fair Lady Pink Hat - One of the most difficult to find in this series in this color (usually found in cream with fall colored flowers and ribbons). Enameling is in quite excellent shape, with a small ding off of one flower, a few tiny scratches under one ribbon and along the side of one flower. Pale and hot pink with medium green enameling, clear rhinestones, goldtone, 2" x 1". Item: SP12-359 Price: $49.50 US |
•••
|
Description: BSK My Fair Lady Charm Bracelet - This difficult to find collectible features charm versions of several of the well-known brooches, and a few that probably weren't brooches but were only made as charms. Here we see Professor Higgins' fedora, Eliza's straw boater, binoculars from Ascot races, one of the dowagers' fans, a lady from Ascot and one of the horses and jockey, and Eliza dancing with His Royal Highness at the ball. Only the boater is marked BSK and My Fair Lady, but I am quite certain that this is exactly as sold and is in pristine original condition. All goldtone, foldover clasp, about 7 1/4" including clasp. Item: SB12-466 Price: $69.50 US |

Description: BSK My Fair Lady Professor Higgins Hat Cufflinks - Done in shades of brown enamel and accented with clear and ruby colored rhinestones, these are in excellent condition with no dings in the enamel (very unusual). Though probably aimed at the men in the audience when this film was shown in the 1960's, I see no reason why they couldn't be worn by either sex if you have a shirt with French cuffs. 1" x 3/4", much more rare than the brooches. Item: SM12-520 Price: $42.50 US |

Description: ART Sixties Dangle Earrings - Don't these earrings just scream Mod! Get out the go-go boots! Mustard yellow enamel in three tiers, clip backs. 3 1/4" x 1 1/2". Perfect for your next Swingin' Sixties party, and a lot of fun for $10.00 (on original card) Item: SE12-097 Price: $10.00 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 |

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 |
•••
|

Eight links with alternating "stripes" of paved rhinestones, safety chain, foldover clasp with stones. A testament to ORA's quality. 7" x almost 3/4". Silvertone. Item: SB12-448 Price: $67.50 US   |

Description: Les Bernard Black Pave Demi-Hoops - Goldtone clip earrings done in black rhinestones rather than the more usual clear, making a more subtle statement for daytime elegance. Top quality clip findings, all original excellent condition. Les Bernard is not a particularly common signature, but apparently many of this company's pieces used pave settings. This line was sold in high end department stores and was in business from the early 1960's to the mid 1990's. Item: SE12-388 Price: $24.50 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: Mamselle Christmas Tree with Multi Baguettes - An uncommon signature and a very pretty tree with unusual use of colored baguette rhinestones in capri blue, emerald green and true ruby red, a more raspberry red than traditional siam red. 2" by 1 3/8"; other than a little minor spotting that is found in this type of finish the piece is in the excellent original condition. Item: SP12-412 Price: $49.50US |
•••

Description: Corocraft Domed Tree Pin and Earring Set - The colored version of the tree shown above in all clear, with the elusive matching earrings! Montana blue, fuchsia, emerald green and clear rhinestones form "v" patterns. Pin is signed Coro on the pinback and Corocraft on the body; earrings are unsigned. Other than the clears being a little discolored on body of the earrings (an easy replacement if you wish), these are in excellent shape. Shown in almost every collector book on holiday jewelry that I have seen. Brooch is 2 1/2" x 1 1/4" and earrings are 1 1/8". Item: SS12-413 Price: $95.00/set US |

Description: Ultracraft Scalloped Christmas Tree Pin with Multi Rhinestones - Ultracraft is Ultra Rare! and this is by far the nicest tree I have seen by this company and in excellent original condition. Round rhinestones in various sizes in sapphire blue, emerald green and siam red dot the goldtone. 2 3/4" x 1 3/4" and slightly domed. A wonderful addition to any tree collection Item: SP12-414 Price: $59.50US |
•••
|
Description: Hollycraft Christmas Tree in Red and Green Rhinestones - Another well-known piece shown in several of the Christmas jewelry books, this antiqued goldtone tree is marked Hollycraft with the copyright symbol and features red and green pointed back rhinestones with a single clear flatback accenting the star. 2 1/4" x 1 5/8". Item: SP12-278 Price: $85.00 US Sorry, SOLD! |
|

  |
Description: Hollycraft "Ribbon" Christmas Tree Pin with Red and Green Flatback Rhinestones - Again, another book piece shown in several Christmas tree collecting books. 2 1/4" x 1 3/4"; goldtone; only the star has a clear aurora borealis stone. All original, mint condition. Signed Hollycraft with a copyright symbol but no date, indicating this is probably 1960 or shortly thereafter. Item: SP12-381 Price: $79.50US |
•••
|
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 |

  |
Description: ART Christmas Wreath Brooch - A popular design for ART, this features olive green enamel topped with white enamel "snow" and accented with orange, topaz, and blue rhinestones, all topped with a red enamel bow. 1 3/4" in diameter, signed ART with copyright symbol. Excellent original condition. Item: SP12-462 Price: $29.50US |

|
Description: ART Christmas Bell Pin - I have been lucky enough to obtain another of these bells in excellent original condition. Goldtone with olive green translucent enamel, set with capri blue, light siam, fuchsia and light topaz glass rhinestones with a dark blue rhinestone for the "clapper". Dangle style, 2 1/8" x 1 1/2". I can find no flaw in this piece. Signed ART with a copyright symbol on both the upper and lower parts. Item: SP12-382 Price: $34.50 US |

  |
Description: Jeanne Christmas Tree Pin with Red and Green Rhinestones - Jeanne pieces are difficult to come by; this is the only Christmas tree I have seen by this company, and I have not seen any Jeanne trees in any of the Christmas books - Trowbridge shows a Jeanne piece but it is not a tree. 2 3/8" x 1 7/8" at the widest point, this uses a rope design to outline the branches of the tree. Goldtone has mellowed a bit with time but everything is in excellent shape. Rare. Item: SPRLS12-94 Price: $65.00US |
•••
|
Description: JJ Christmas Tree in Multi Navette Rhinestones - Jonnette Jewelry produced many great pieces over the years (JJ is, unfortunately, no longer in business); I am guessing this is an earlier piece. Shown in both Trowbridge and Morrison, this measures 2 1/4" x 1 5/8" and uses a slightly hobnailed goldtone metal base. Very slight discoloration on metal as seen in picture. Item: SPRLS12-95 Price: $45.00 US |
|
•••
  |
Description: JJ Scalloped Christmas Tree Pin with Multi Rhinestones - Another older Jonnette tree, this uses a 5 tiered scalloped design that alternates a metal bead with multi colored rhinestones. 2 1/4" x 1 3/4". Shown in both Trowbridge and Morrison. Excellent condition. Item: SPRLS12-107 Price: $25.00US |
•••
|
Description: JJ Penguin Christmas Tree in Red and Green Rhinestones - Many of JJ's later Christmas pieces (and pieces in general) were marketed under the name Artifacts; pieces are still signed JJ but often appear on Artifacts display cards. Known for many clever and hilarious designs, this one uses penguins with green navette bodies separated by red rhinestones. Red glass star at the top. Pewtery type metal, 2 5/8" x 1 5/8". Unusual in that this has a flat bottom. Fun piece for those who enjoy penguin pieces. Excellent condition. Item: SPRLS12-106 Price: $30.00 US |

Description: ART Cut Out Christmas Tree Pin with Multi Rhinestones - This particular ART design was done in both an enameled and non-enameled version (see Morrison book for non-enameled version) and uses the usual sapphire-topaz-hyacinth rhinestone combination that was standard for this company. There are some clear rhinestones here that may or may not be original; if you would like us to replace them, we can do it, but this was as found. 2 1/4" x 1 1/2", layered openwork design has olive colored enameling, goldtone. Item: SPRLS12-100 Price: $45.00US |
•••
|
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: ART Enameled Christmas Tree Pin with Multi Rhinestones - Another book piece, this is shown enameled in Trobridge and non-enameled in Morrison. Interesting "claw" design for trunk, enameled branches reach down with the usual accents of hyacinth, blue, green and clear rhinestones. 2 3/8" x 1 1/2", double layered design. Enameling has worn a little at high points but in general is in good shape. Otherwise excellent. Item: SPRLS12-96 Price: $32.50US |

Description: Corocraft Christmas Tree in Fuchsia, Montana, Clear and Emerald Rhinestones - If you like the Corocraft tree above, here it is available without the earrings. Excellent condition. Item: SPRLS12-99 Price: $59.50 US |

Description: Beatrix Christmas Tree Pin -Beatrix is the pre-1975 mark for BJ (Beatrix Jewelry). This tree is shown in the 1st edition Gallina book. Done in light goldtone with green, red and ivory enamel, this measures 2 1/2" x 1 1/4". The Beatrix mark is partially hidden behind the clasp. Very good condition, with some of the ivory enamel worn off. Item: SPRLS12-335 Price: $22.50US |

Description: Weiss Candle Christmas Trees Set - The famous ultimate set for Christmas tree collectors, these use frosted baguettes for candles. Shown in Gallina, Morrison, and Trowbridge, they are known as 6 candle, 5 candle and 3 candle for the three sizes. All in excellent condition, with the smallest showing a little aging of the clear stones. 6 candle tree has a gunmetal type setting, while the other two are in the traditional brassy goldtone. All of the price guides seem to agree that the value of these, individually, is very high, so I think you will find our price for the trio quite reasonable. Item: SPRLS12-115 Price: $495.00/all three pieces US |

Description: Tancer Poinsettia Christmas Tree Pin with Green Rhinestones - Tancer and TancerII markings are a spinoff of the Mylu company, where the original founders of Mylu for Coro, sisters Marge Borofsky and Lynn Gordon formed a partnership with Michael Tancer. This piece is shown in Gallina, Morrison, and Trowbridge in various enamelings; this translucent enameling is so light that a couple of books referred to it as pink. The centers of 6 of the flowers are green rhinestones, the others are gold knobs. 2 1/2" x 1 1/2". Item: SPRLS12-44 Price: $20.00US |
•••
|
Description: Tancer Christmas Tree in Clear Aurora Borealis Rhinestones - This is signed Tancer II, though part of the II is almost covered with the pinback. Flat design with many AB rhinestones, the trunk has an interesting curl! Done in a variety of stone colors and in both goldtone and silvertone platings, this design is shown in both Trowbridge and Morrison. Item: SPRLS12-97 Price: $20.00 US |

Description: Elzac Wooden Christmas Tree Pin - Elzac, creator of the Barbie doll and the "Victims of Fashion" pins, also did this Christmas tree. Marked with a paper tag, this measures 3 3/4" x 3 1/8". The wood is "set" with acrylic type round cabochons and a 6 point star. Truly one of the most unusual trees. Item: SPRLS12-86 Price: $45.00US Sorry, SOLD! |

|
Description: PSNC Christmas Tree - I have absolutely no idea who PSNC is (if someone wants to let me know, that'd be great!) but this is an interesting tree, done with a satin finish with the front side made up of enameled poinsettias in burgundy over a dark forest green colored background. Completely flat, this measures 2 1/4" x 1 1/2" and is in excellent condition. Item: SPRLS12-53 Price: $25.00 US |

Description: AJC Christmas Tree Pin - This knobby textured tree has an overcoat of green glitter, with a polished goldtone star. This is a working musical tree; I have replaced both batteries but am having trouble getting the repeating tunes (Jingle Bells, Santa Clause is Coming To Town, and We Wish You a Merry Christmas) to stop repeating without removing the battery! 2 3/4" x 1 7/8". AJC is the mark for American Jewelry Company and this piece is shown in Trowbridge's book. Item: SPRLS12-45 Price: $32.00US |
•••
|
Description: Atwood & Sawyer Christmas Tree in Red and Green Rhinestones - This piece comes in its original box and is marked A&S; for whatever reason my camera balked at photographing the signature. At 1 7/8" x 1 1/4", this is quite small but is a quality piece in excellent condition. This is a less showy version of the one pictured in Morrison's book. A&S is, I believe, a company located in the UK. The outside of the presentation box is marked "The Atwood Collection" and "A&S". Item: SPRLS12-54 Price: $42.50 US Sorry, SOLD! |
