By Coro (marked on the earrings only), this brilliantly blue pin and earring set is made of gold tone metal with prong set rhinestones and cabochons in dark blue, blue aurora and iridescent light blue, respectively. The pinwheel style pin measures 2 1/8" in diameter, while the clip earrings measure 1" long by ¾" wide. The earrings are in very good vintage condition with light rubbing wear to the finish on the back. The pin is also in very good vintage condition but please note that the rhinestones at center are of different sizes. Two appear to be replacements that are slightly smaller than the original stones; however the bottom five are all smaller than the top three. When viewing the back of the pin you can see that the bottom cups (settings) are smaller than the top, so it appears that all but the two previously mentioned are indeed original to the design. $42.00 Item#S 1202-059 View an earring as worn |

Dramatic and stylish with fantastic color combinations? Then it must be by the masterful Lawrence VRBA! This contemporary pin and earring set takes the grapes motif to new heights with its ever-changing glass disco balls that flash from blue and purple to clear and rest on hexagonal, channel set rhinestone bases. The giant leaves consist of varying shapes of prong set rhinestones in lime, peridot, jonquil, dark green and royal blue, and there are stones all the way down the stems. The pin is quite heavy, meant to be worn at the shoulder and measures a tremendous 4 ½" long by 4" wide. The japanned/dark gunmetal plating makes the colors even more spectacular. The clip earrings are sizeable in their own right at 1 1/8" diameter by 7/8" tall. All pieces are marked and the set is in very good condition. Wearable art! $595.00 Item#S 0109-103 View an earring as worn, back of the set, top view - pin, side view - pin |

Gold tone mesh tubes frame a floral painted porcelain center in this 1960s pin and earring set. Jazzing things up are French prong set blue auroras at each corner. The pin measures 1 7/8" by 1 7/8" and is in excellent vintage condition, while the clip earrings measure 1 1/8" by 1 1/8". The earrings are in very good vintage condition, though upon close inspection I can see looping crazing-like marks on the porcelain of each earring. I'm not sure what these are as they go into the glass (like a crease not a crack), as if something was in the mold. The porcelain is completely intact and the marks aren't visible when worn. Regardless, I have priced the set accordingly as the pin only. $56.00 Item#S 0908-012 View an earring as worn |

Here's a runway set by modern master DAVID MANDEL that will elevate your ensemble to supermodel territory. It consists of a necklace and bracelet with five strands of simulated pearls (plastic), each with two aurora rhinestone bands and clear round and brilliant lilac emerald cut rhinestones at the ends. The earrings are clip backs and made up of the stones only. The necklace fits snugly and the ends have quite a bit of weight. It measures 13 ¾" long (small neck sizes only!) by 2 3/8" wide and is marked at each end with David's "THE SHOW MUST GO ON" mark in an oval cartouche. The bracelet is also quite heavy and measures 7 ¾" long by 2 ½" wide and is not signed. The clip earrings (signed) have the base of the clip set 1 ¼" from the top and measure 2 ¼" long by 7/8" wide. All pieces are made of silver tone metal and with the exception of the bands of aurora rhinestones, all are prong set. Some notes: Since this set is handmade, there is some solder visible on the back of the earrings and some slightly dark stones on each of the bands. All pieces have a lot of weight and as previously mentioned, the necklace will be a snug fit. The lilac stones are a soft lilac shade in sunlight and incandescent light but they do change to a very distinct and different light blue in florescent light. Please be aware of this if you are complimenting an outfit in lilac or purple hues. I have included a photo below to give an idea of the change though the scanner's florescent light washes out the color completely. When viewed in florescent light in person they have a definite blue cast. This set dates to the 1990s/early 00s and is in overall very good to excellent condition. $975.00 Item#S 1103-012 View an earring as worn, back of the earrings, full necklace bracelet close-up left, bracelet close-up right, aurora rhinestone bar rhinestone color change in florescent light |

Spectacular, show-stopping FLORENZA at its best! This gorgeous parure of necklace, bracelet and earrings is simply stunning with beautiful colors, top-notch construction and a look that's all class. Central to each piece are molded, art glass tulips in a champagne hue with blue iridescence (think carnival glass). This makes them seem to glow and as light hits them they radiate from peach and gold to blue and purple. These lovely stones are complemented perfectly by rhinestones in the same tones, as well as lime aurora and peridot. The gold tone leaves and metal work have nice details throughout and even the clasp of the bracelet bears a floral pattern. The necklace measures 16 ¼" long (including the 2 ½" hook section and 3 ¾" extender), while the bracelet is 7" long by 1" wide and the clip earrings are 1 ¼" long by 7/8" wide. All are marked on the piece themselves and not the findings. Excellent vintage condition and a truly glorious set. $425.00 Item#S 0200-027N Necklace/Earring close-up, Bracelet close-up, View an earring as worn |

I love how the dark red rhinestones practically leap off of the painted red (metal) background of this pinwheel pin and earring set. Measuring 3" by 3" the pin consists of delightfully frilly open work, while the ¾" long by 7/8" wide clip earrings boast a smaller, single-bladed version of the design. It is in very good vintage condition with just a tiny bit of wear to the red finish on the back of the pin (negligible) and on the loop where the dangle connects on each earring (normal wear). Add a big splash of color to your outfits! Item#S 0200-298N View the earrings as worn |
