Description

This encyclopedic study is the fruit of twenty years of collecting, research, and study of the most significant American costume jewelry from 1930-1950.

It offers readers a meticulous, reliable instrument to knowing these gems, which are often true and proper little works of art.

Thirty-seven companies are included, with addtional chapters on "jelly belly" jewelry and patriotic jewelry in the second volume.

In-depth research of the companies makes this the best source on the American costume jewelry industry.

The second volume N-Z, continues with Norma Jewelry Corp., through Rebajes, Réja, Trifari, to Uncas Manufacturing, with chapters on jelly belly jewelry and American patriotic jewelry.
