    Any marks on the back? Are they fine or costume jewelry?

    Ah. A patent number. That can be useful in determining manufacturer and age.

    AVEDON--Harvey, 97, of NYC, died June 21. Beloved husband of the late Drusilla and a great friend to many in the city and on Fire Island. Harvey was a talented jewelry designer and businessman who lived life to the fullest and gave enjoyment and knowledge to all who knew him. Harvey will be often and deeply missed. Donations in Harvey's memory may be made to the American Kidney Foundation or the American Heart Association.

    I thought patent numbers could be used by whomever and not just the person who registered it So that makes these his creation? Sorry for the dumb question.

    Knowing just the designer's name and earliest date doesn't answer your question. But think we can extrapolate that, as Avedon NYC-based, commissioning company or organization local or fairly so.

    I know, I've tried looking and nothing yet. I just wish I could figure out what the symbols are

    The top of these links is meant to look like Damascene, if that's any help.

    How about this from the internet?

    "Harvey enjoyed a successful jewelry business with Tiffany & Co., his largest customer. Many items Harvey made for Tiffany were branded, thereby only marked 'Tiffany'."

    Closed his business in 1976 so there are your dates. 1960-1976.

    How frustrating. No mystery. The U.S. Patent and Trademark office. You can start at uspto.gov, then go to Trademarks, and then find TESS (Trademark Electronic Search System.)
