[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 12399029, member: 2844"]Yes, Neiger jewellery wasn't marked. But there are period catalogues, and quite a lot of pieces can be found in those. The Neiger brothers weren't glass makers, only designers and jewellery makers, using pre-made components. A lot of glass beads and cabs were commissioned by them, but those were never made for them exclusively, so others used them too. Others also copied their jewellery designs, but the execution was always a bit more sloppy than Neiger-made pieces. So if you see ill-fitting cabs or sloppy enamel, you know it is not the real deal.[/QUOTE]
