Art Work & Advertising

Original Jewelry Art
Work for Advertising


These are gouache on illustration board art work
illustrations of Haskell
Jewelry, many attributed to Larry Austin, about whom little is known. As you
can see they are slightly larger than life, but they very accurately depict the jewelry of
that era in all it’s lush beaded splendor. These would have been used to
promote Miriam Haskell Jewelry in shops and publications, circa 1930-40s

This tidbit from


Harper’s Bazaar April 1933
,

over 80 years ago when American was still reeling from the effects of
the Great Depression


"It doesn’t do to look dreary, even if your heart is breaking. If you
can’t buy a new dress, or even if you can, go to Miriam Haskell in the
Heckscher Building. The most imaginative and smart costume jewelry
going is being sold there for next to nothing. She dotes on single clips
made like clusters of grapes. These are in all sorts of composition
stones, and there are very nice ones for a dollar. The ensemble is well
worked out, and each clip has a bracelet, some of them for two dollars,
some for more, and some of them have necklaces and woven collarettes as
well. White bead fruit clusters with dull metal leaves are exceedingly
quaint and European looking. We wore a set and were asked by all our
friends where in Paris we found them. Hawaiian coral is rather carrot
colored, very bright and very cheap. For sports wear you will lose your
mind over the deep brown cord bracelet which buttons closed, like a
cuff, over four or five huge yellow bead buttons. There are clips to go
with this. There are braided necklaces for evening and modern versions
of the dog collar and wonderful concoctions which get right away from
the conventional string-of-beads you’re all so sick of. A really
fascinating shop, this, and guaranteed to make a new woman out of you."

Advertising
illustrations from 1930-1940s
Haskell used the original art work to create both
the glossy and parchment advertisements shown below. These were distributed to the shops and
boutiques who carried Haskell jewelry in the 1930-40s. Some of these are
signed by Miriam Haskell, and some of the "Haskell" signatures were done by
others at the time. These are often matted, as you can see here.
