Diamanté & Silver Vintage Dangle Earrings
1920s Jewelry, Unsigned Jewelry, Vintage EarringsThese vintage dangle earrings are diamanté-encrusted with faceted, square-cut stones at the earlobe and as the focal point on the drop. Long and luxurious, these all-original Art Deco pendants have gold-colored ear wires with shepherd hooks for pierced ears. I am unaware of their metal content. I think these beautiful earrings are European in origin because of their exceptional quality, their fasteners, and the "SILVER" stamp on the back. The use of "800 silver" (which is less than the 925 standard for sterling) was common in Europe when these jewels were made. Pieces like these are difficult to photograph, and the earrings are much brighter and more sparkly than the photos indicate. This glamorous pair walked the runway at a recent fashion show.

Four rows of rhodium-plated curved-top links set with diamanté stretch to allow you to put on the bracelet – it has no clasp. What's amazing is that the mechanism for stretching the piece – a series of springs – is concealed. The last photo shows part of the British utility patent for this construction. This bracelet is the only piece in this group with the 'SIMEX' trademark. I can’t figure out how to tell you the size of this piece other than how it fits me.

Diamanté Brooch or Pair of Dress Clips with Scrolls

Diamanté Double Clip Brooch by Mazer Bros.
1930s Jewelry, Double Clip Brooches, Mazer Bros. JewelryThis double clip brooch by Mazer Brothers features sparkly round and baguette diamantés in a late-Art Deco design. What’s interesting about this piece is that the patent for the brooch mechanism that connects the dress clips was issued to Marcel Boucher in 1939, two years after he started his own company. He filed the patent application when he was working for Mazer Brothers, but the patent wasn’t assigned to them when it was issued. (You can see the utility patent here, below Boucher's name.) I was surprised to find the “MAZER” mark on this piece from the technical perspective but certainly not from an aesthetic point of view. Because this jewel was created with the Boucher mechanism, I think it was made while he still worked for the firm. Wear this lovely piece as a brooch or as separate dress clips.

Diamanté Dress Clips or Brooch
1940s Jewelry, Double Clip Brooches, Unsigned JewelryThese diamanté dress clips have a mechanism that allows them to be worn together as a brooch.

The lines are graceful, and the combination of round and navette stones with baguettes is lovely. This piece is unsigned but well-made.USD$245.00USD$245.00
