VENDOME rare rose and pink rhinestone three-dimensional flower brooch and matching earrings, a large, 3-dimensional and showy

Designer: Vendome
Price: $598.00
Description VENDOME rare rose and pink rhinestone three-dimensional flower brooch and matching earrings, a large, 3-dimensional and showy set but also light weight and easy to wear.  Each of the four flowers stands above the gold filigree brooch back like a real flower!  The detail is really creative and this is an unusual set that has been in my own collection for decades.  The brooch is 3" by 3" and the clip back earrings 1-1/4",  and the set was probably made in the 1960s.  This may have been from the 1966 Series "Burst of Brilliance" shown in the September issue, but I am not sure.  HERE is the advertisement for that group from Vogue Magazine.

Coro, Cohen & Rosenberger began making jewelry in the early 1900’s in Providence, Rhode Island.  As CORO they are familiar to all costume jewelry lovers.  CORO made jewelry from about 1920 until the 1970’s, and probably did it under more different names than any other maker.

Vendome (1944-1979) , Corocraft (1935-1980), and Duette are just three of many examples.  The Coro mark was on the more modestly priced jewelry and Corocraft, Vendome and Francois were the higher priced lines.  Gene Verri was one of the best known of their designers, but there were others responsible for the wonderful style of Coro jewelry.
