plated. The hallmark appears on the reverse.

Unsigned Vintage Costume
|
Unsigned beauties
make up a good portion of our amazing
costume jewelry
offerings. You can see more at our
on-line jewelry
store. As you may know not all designers stamped their
creations with a
hallmark or makers mark. Many used paper or metal hang tags, some were
put on cards bearing the name of the maker and others were
never marked in any way at all. Hang tags were removed,
original cards were thrown away so the identity of the maker
is lost. A great example is
D&E Juliana.
When you are looking at a
particularly well made piece of vintage costume jewelry and you
can't find a mark, you never know! Some items can be
attributed by the way they are constructed or by the
materials and techniques used. Some designers/manufactures
used techniques that set their designs apart from others,
such as the Sherman "hook and eye" construction. Miriam
Haskell used a certain type of pearl and distinctive
stampings. Others may have used these techniques and items,
but it is a good starting point.
Often times it is possible to
find your item in a costume jewelry book or magazine ad.
Investing in several costume jewelry books will pay off in
the long run.
It
is also possible to attribute a piece of jewelry by finding
it's mates. Again D&E Juliana comes to mind. We know that
the five link
bracelet
is a design technique that was used by De Lizza
and Elster. If you have a pair of earrings or a
brooch that is a match for one of their bracelets you
can safely attribute the item to D&E.
