Vintage 1940s intricately constructed & signed Vendome Filigree Basket Earrings studded with pearls and rhinestones... they remind me of Haskell construction, yet they're signed Vendome.
Vintage 1940s & from a fine estate ~ exquisitely made with intricate filigree leaves, openwork and prong set blue & clear rhinestone accents in buy addition to lustrous pearl focals. These have screw adjustable clip-on backs and are each marked "Vendome" (see closeup).
ABOUT VENDOME: Vendome was the top quality line of jewelry produced by Coro Jewelry Company. It replaced "Corocraft" as their high end line.
The Vendome line was named after a street in Paris that housed many fine fashion houses. This was no accident as Coro intended the line to emulate fine French fashion.
The earliest jewelry produced by the company included enchanting beaded necklace and earring jewelry. Up until the late 50's Vendome pearls were by far their most popular jewelry. The product line was then expanded to include a wide variety of styles which included a line of cocktail rings and watches.
MEASUREMENTS: about 1 1/4" x 1" and earrings are about 1" thick (but are really lightweight on the ear!)
CONDITION: Excellent with the exception of one tiny clear rhinestone missing from a leaf tip (so minor I didn't notice it until I started editing the closeups). Clip backs work just fine & all other embellishments & pieces are present & sound.
All of my items (unless otherwise noted) are from a smoke free home.
