 Magazine advertising from years past is one of the most exciting reference sources for attributing and dating vintage jewelry. These wonderful old ads illustrate how jewelry was worn, when it was made, and how it coordinated with the styles of the time.

 Nancy Davis Reagan  1951

  This plastic fan necklace display box is very similar to the Deltah Pearls case shown at right>>>
It has a built-in stand, and opens to display a necklace on the cream velvet inside. It is marked on the back "Braun-Crystal Mfg.".

weird flower or a critter!   View

Nancy Davis before she became Mrs. Ronald Reagan 1951

Bette Davis  1939

Esther Williams 1950

Lana Turner in "The Prodigal" made in 1955  This whole dress is jewelry!

This is the same outfit when it was on exhibit in New York.

 

This outfit is from "Samson and Delilah" worn by Hedy Lamarr. This dress was made from "Assuit" a material made in Egypt. It is little bits of silver colored metal clamped around the threads of course net.  I will guarantee it was very uncomfortable!  Close up view

TO ORDER

PLEASE NOTE: Regretfully, it is no longer possible to respond to individual questions regarding jewelry history, identification or value, or to offer written or verbal appraisals or opinions. The demand for this kind of information is absolutely too overwhelming for one dealer to fill. 
I love jewelry, but appraising and selling are two entirely different businesses, and I choose selling as my business.
Instead, articles are added on a regular basis to JEWEL CHAT on line Magazine, a wonderful reference for  information on many makers and styles of vintage jewelry.
