Description: Trifari Philippe Pastel Enamel Fur Clip - Marked with "Des. Pat No." and 119105, this design dates to February of 1940 and is one of the popular early enameled floral fur clip series. At 2 1/4" x 2", this is about average size for this genre. Pink yellow and medium blue flowers are enhanced with dark green leaves, brown and green stems, and a darker blue bow. Small clears are scattered throughout the piece, and the center of the larger pink flower uses a tiny gumdrop cabochon in emerald green. Clear stones are all original. The flowers all show mild to moderate enamel loss as seen in the picture but the leaves, stems and bow show little if any wear. Plating shows signs of wear but is mild. Price reflects noted condition.

Description: Incredible Bogoff Pink and Clear Necklace and Earring Set - Like the beer that made Milwaukee famous, this is one example of why Bogoff is loved and sought after. Pink marquises and clear rounds make up the 13 front links of the necklaces, while side portions are one of the typical Bogoff fancy chain designs, this one using 3 clear rounds per link. Clasp is a foldover type with both clasp and holders being rhinestone set. Either end of the chain is marked Bogoff in a U shape. Earrings are clip, in the shape of a pentagonal flower, with round clears circling a single pink round. Necklace is 15", earrings are 13/16" point to point. Excellent original condition with slight yellowing of some of the small clears on the necklace. There is a necklace design that is an exact match to the earrings so I'm not certain if this is an alternate design; however they work beautifully together.

Description: Lisner Classic Motif Brooch - This design reminds me of something that might have been worn by Greco-Roman emperors. Colorado Topaz glass rhinestones are in the center with light sapphire glass rhinestones running along the border. Goldtone setting, about 2 1/4" x 1 5/8". Nice on a denim jacket. Some of the light blue stones are replacements.

Description: Trifari Pink Shoebutton Fur/Pin Clip and Bracelet Set - Of the 1940's pieces this is one of my favorite types. Pink faux moonstone cabochons are centered with a single clear rhinestone; more clear stones are sprinkled among the cabs and used in a pave motif on the bow at the top of the fur clip and the butterfly-looking links on the bracelet. Whether the fur clip was intended to be a stylized floral or a bunch of grapes design I do not know. These are in excellent original condition and a sought-after milieu. Pretty in pink and charming as almost all Trifari from that period is. Almost certainly a Philippe design; signed Trifari with a crown over the T, and done in heavy rhodium plate that became known as Trifanium. Clip measures 2 1/4" x 1 1/2" at widest points, bracelet is 7" x 1/2" with a hidden push-in clasp.

Description: Coro Gilt Duette with Extra Fur Clip - How I ended up with an extra clip in this design I don't remember, but it appears to be an identical match for this duette. Done with larger aqua rounds on the bottons of the clips and smaller clear stones at the top, this has a retro feel that probably circa dates them to the late 1940's. Usually duette clips aren't signed but these ARE, in a raised print that appears to say Coro-Des. Pat. Pend., and frame is signed differently than usual, with Coro Duette on left top of frame and the patent number on the right top. All pieces in excellent original condition. 2 1/4" x 1" assembled duette, single clip is 1 1/8" x 1".

Description: Coro Purple Faux Moonstone Pair of Dress Clips (Duette without Frame) -Well known Coro design, not signed as these were almost always signed on the frame, which is, sadly, missing. The purple color glass moonstones are much less often found than, say, the fuchsia or blue ones, which is a shame, because this color is beautiful! Enameling is done in two-tone green and brown, again, typical for color, and clear pave at the tops. Potmetal, spring-type clip mechanisms have patent number for the mechanism 1852188 as per usual. Each clip about 1" by 1" and are in very good condition with enamel only having one small ding and a few of the small clears being replacements. You may wish to buy both this and SD9-715 as the frame should work for both of these sets of clips

Description: Coro Pink Trembler Fur Clip - Another well known Coro design, this is one of Coro's earliest patents, dating to 1939 and designed by Gene Verri (Verrecchio). Enameled in two colors of pink, the leaves are channel set with square pink rhinestones, and the floral head, connected on a trembler spring wire mechanism, uses pink squares and a single pink round in the center, with the squares alternating with clear rounds. Goldtone setting, clip is signed Coro in script (you have to look very carefully for it) and the end of the stem says pat. # 117802 (very tiny and difficult to read). 2 1/4"x 1 3/4", this has enamel loss at the top of the flower and the spring is so tight in the trembler that it doesn't move by itself, this is still in very good shape for 70+ years old and is quite charming.

Description: Nolan Miller Fruit Salad Basket Brooch - One of the more popular pieces on the NM secondary market, this piece uses something not usually found in contemporary pieces - fruit salad stones in red, emerald green and dark sapphire blue, with the blue stones looking almost purple in certain lights. All surrounded by clear pave, glass pearls and red guilloche enameling, this lovely goldtone basket measures almost 3" x 2". Excellent if not pristine condition.
