Wow! It’s all here. A complete signed set of Weiss Jewelry. Brooch, clip earrings, bracelet, and necklace. It is all in amazing condition. I don’t think it was ever worn, how unfortunate! All the faceted rhinestones are all prong set. The larger round rhinestones are multi prong set or “dog-toothed”. They don’t even set diamonds this way! The necklace has a rolled mesh edge with prong set rhinestones along side it. This necklace could be worn either way. The rhinestones on top or bottom. The necklace measures 15 1/4″. The bracelet measures 6 1/2″ long. The purple prong set stones are along the outer edge and the center has larger round faceted dog-toothed stones. In between is gold tone metal. The earrings are a “button style” measuring 1 1/8″. The center stone is purple and surrounded with a fushia and purple colored rhinestones. The earrings are clips. They work well and not loose at all. The brooch is a circle and measures 1 1/2″ in diameter. The pattern repeats with the dog-toothed faceted stones and gold mesh. All pieces are signed and show no signs of wear. The gold is all in amazing condition.
Another amazing piece of jewelry from Hobe. The original Hobe’ Cie was founded in Paris in 1887. This family tradition of making jewelry was brought to the States in the 1920’s. They were a major supplier of pieces for the theater and film during the 1940’s and 1950’s. This necklace and earring set is in great condition with no damage or “dead” stones. The necklace and earrings are all marked: “Hobe”. The necklace is four strands with cream colored beads that have gold flecks in them. They are spaced apart by an aura borealis crystal. Each strand is on a chain, not wire or string. This is a great indication of the craftsmanship. There are also cream colored pearls or beads. The “pendant” part of this necklace has prong set beige navette rhinestones with square aura borealis ones in-between. Quite stunning! This does sit on the side and not dead center, very avant guard! The necklace measures 17″ and is on an adjustable type clasp. The earrings are clip and a “button” style measuring 1 1/4″. The center of the earring is the cream colored bead with the gold flecks. Surrounding that are pearls with aura borealis rhinestones sticking out of the center. The outside of the earring has a scalloped edge of prong set aura borealis stones.
Vintage Amourelle Necklace and Earring Set. Amourelle was a division of Kramer Jewelry Creations New York. Frank Hess of Miriam Haskell fame formed this collaboration with Kramer in 1963. Very few pieces are around as the partnership only lasted a few years. The necklace has a large pendant that measures 1 3/4″ in diameter. The chain is 17″ long. The detail to this is outstanding! The gold tone metal has a blue and white enamel flower in-between each link. This blue and white enameling carries on with the pendant, along with green, red, purple, and one larger amber rhinestone. The amber colored rhinestone is raised in the center and white seed pearls surround it. The earrings are very similar to the pendant. There is the one larger amber rhinestone in center surrounded by the pearls. The rhinestone above are purple and green. These are clip style earrings. The earrings are marked: “Made in Western Germany” on the clip. The pendant has the heart shaped plaque that reads: “Amourelle”.

Vintage bold blue brooch and clip style earrings. All based in rhodium with the rhinestones being prong set. There is no signature on these lovelies, but they are well made! The brooch is shaped like a flower with many petals and then there are aura borealis stones jetting out from that. All the stones have many facets and shine brilliantly. This pin measures a little over 2″. The earrings are clips and follow the line of your ear. This means that there is a “left” and “right”. They measures almost 2″.
