Featured Older and Newer Costume Jewelry - Any Thoughts

I looked at @Ownedbybear's sensational photographs of her jewelry and wanted to get a better setup before I posted again in the jewelry forum. So I accumulated several pieces and here are five, as follows:

1. Green Glass Brooch - 2"
2. Beige Glass Brooch - 2 1/4"
3. Necklace and Earrings with green and pink glass and fake pearls - 18"
4. Bracelet with Green enamel and stamped brass?
5. Green serpentine and gold tone metal necklace - 34"

I bought them because I was interested in finding out about them. I would very much appreciate your comments on any of these pieces that you may have. I split the pictures into four posts (actually 5 if you count the cat)

 

Item 3 Necklace and Earrings

 

Item 4 Bracelet

 

Item 5 34 inch Necklace

 

Oh and the cat helper

 

Really great photos !!! Ya done good! (as my Aunt used to say)

 

Thank you. I learned from OBB.

 

Especially love the first necklace, which looks like a genuine Deco era production.

 

My Iowa-raised mother also used to use it.

 

Great news! I had no idea. Thank you.

 

I can hear it in my ear.

 

This is of course the best picture. Just ask the cat.

 

She is ridiculous. Kept trying to crawl through the hole in the top. Then when I opened the front, she wouldn't get out and had to play with the necklace.

 

Well DUH. Of course. It's a box. She's a cat. It fits, she sits, and this one even came with a cat toy.

 

Love LOVE the bracelet, #4. Could we see the entire piece? That art glass (I'm assuming glass) is fantastic! Maybe 1920s or 30s. Great!

I've seen very similar necklaces to the last piece #5. Even Trifari made some, but I don't think this is Trifari. I would date it to 1960s/1970s. Are you sure the green is serpentine not plastic? You may be perfectly correct, just others similar in style I've seen have been plastic. Simona just posted a group of items to ID and I believe #27 might be the same as your #5.

Item 3, necklace and earrings sort of reminds me of a Florenza piece (1960s, sort of revival style) but could certainly be an older piece.

Love this group, I'm partial to GREEN.

 

So am I - a green lover that is. Here is a shot of the whole bracelet and a couple of closeups of the art glass. I hope its 1920's or 30's. The necklace is the similar to Simona's 27, but hers are square. You could be right it's plastic. I hadn't examined it carefully, but it's probably too warm for stone. I was fooled by the dark bits. Live and learn.

 

Thank you for the compliments.

My boy does EXACTLY that. The pop up studio acquires fur. I think that necklace she's toying with is Chinese.

Necklace and earrings look 30s ish. 1 is fifties into sixties, 2 is 20s.

 

Perfect. I need to get a rag to keep it cleaned out of cat hair and bits.
I appreciate the comments on the jewelry pieces. So is the green brooch czech glass? I got all these pieces from one day. Someone must have donated one person's older stuff, as the three older pieces seem to be of the same age. Thank you

 

Yes, I'd think moulded Czech glass.
