KORDA by Rice-Wiener

The movie "The Thief of Bagdad" which was made in 1941 inspired some wonderful whimsical jewelry, which is very collectible today. It was manufactured by Rice-Wiener, who also did McClelland Barclay and Barclay Jewelry. Not all Korda pieces are necessarily related to the movie, as you can see from the floral piece below.
