Vintage 1960s Signed Monet Goldtone Tassel Fringe Brooch

About the Item

1960s goldtone Florentine finish top with fringe bottom brooch with security clasp. Marked "Monet." Measures: 4 1/8 inches long by 2 inches wide. Excellent condition. Early Monet jewelry was produced in the United States and was not mass produced. During the 1960s and 1970s there was more demand than supply, because the company believed in quality over quantity. Monet's jewelry was of such a high caliber that during the 1980s they produced haute couture jewelry for Yves Saint Laurent.

    Located in Easton, PA
    Florentine finish goldtone polo mallet with pave faux-black diamond riding helmet brooch with security clasp. Marked crown "Trifari." Measures: 3 1/4 inches long by 1/2 inch. Excellent condition. This is a remake of a design which was first advertised in Mademoiselle magazine in 1937. This brooch was featured in a 1959 advertisement. Trifari is an American jewelry company founded in 1925 which sold costume jewelry to the middle to high end market. In 1930, Alfred Philippe, an immigrant from France, joined the company and became its lead designer. Philippe in his previous position in Paris had collaborated with Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels, which influenced his designs for Trifari. In the 1930s, Trifari's jewelry was frequently used in Broadway productions. Their designs were also popular in Europe, owned by the Countess of Polignac as well as madame Lanvin's daughter and the director of Lanvin. Trifari also designed two sets of faux-pearl jewelry for Mamie Eisenhower. In 1955, Trifari won a landmark lawsuit protecting its copyrighted designs which were being copied by other costume jewelry companies.
