 If you're in town then come and visit us at: The Antique Connection Mall 12815 Central NE Albuquerque New Mexico, 87123 USA See More | STARET STARET is a company about whom little is known. Their jewelry was made in the early 1940’s and they may have been located in Chicago. There have always been rumors that they were affiliated with Eisenberg, but this seems doubtful, even though the styles and sizes are somewhat similar. Their pieces are generally large and the settings are often pot metal.
STARET jewelry is big, showy and fun to wear. The best pieces combine enameling and rhinestones like many of the ones shown below. |
