VENDOME rare pink glass cabochons and aurora borealis rhinestone brooch and earrings, pink low profile cabochons are very unusual and gorgeous, reflecting light in an interesting way

Designer: Vendome
Price: $698.00
Description VENDOME rare pink glass cabochons and aurora borealis rhinestone brooch and earrings.  The unusual round pink low profile cabochons are very unusual and gorgeous, reflecting light in an interesting way.  Both the center cabochon and the lower one swing back and forth on a small circular ring.  The brooch is 4" by 2-1/4" and the earrings are 1-1/4" clip backs.  This is the exact same set that Christie Romero used in her wonderful book "Warman's Jewelry, 3rd Edition" on page 210.  Christie was a real joy to work with and this is a marvelous set.

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.
