VENDOME 1944-79

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.

Vendome is probably best known for
their beautiful, glittering glass bead necklaces and earrings. My
very favorite jewelry
by Vendome, however, are the wonderful rhinestone pieces like the ones pictured
on this page, especially those with rhinestones and glass cabochons. The
Vendome rhinestone jewelry is more rare than the glass bead jewelry.

cabochon and aurora borealis rhinestone brooch and earrings. Both the center cabochon

and the earrings are 1-1/4" clip backs. This is the exact same set seen in
Christie Romero’s book "Warman’s Jewelry", 3rd Ed, page 210. View
