No issues, circa last quarter of the 20th century. Weight and measurements in pictures. About Patricia Von Musulin Dedicated to experimentation and exploration, Patricia von Musulin has worked extensively to redefine the notion of “accessories. Bold, her work has been featured in international advertising campaigns, countless magazines as well as "on the runway" with both American and International fashion designers. Estee Lauder, Revlon, Elizabeth Arden, Lancôme, Victoria‘s Secret, Absolute Vodka, Cover Girl, Gap, Kohler, and Goldenpoint have used her accessories in their advertising. A partial listing of fashion designers who have featured her work in both their advertising campaigns as well as in their runway shows include: Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren, Adrienne Vittadini, Bill Blass, Geoffrey Beene, Carolina Herrera, Chado, Ralph Rucci, Bally, Cole Haan, and Bogner. Her first working relationships were with Donna Karan and Louis Dellolio for Anne Klein, Pauline Trigere, Giorgio Sant‘Angelo and Perry Ellis. Perry Ellis personally nominated her to the "Council of Fashion Designer of America" when he was the President. Her work has appeared editorially in both national and international magazines: Vogue, German Vogue, Italian Vogue, French Vogue, Vogue Taiwan, Harpers Bazaar, Harpers Bazaar en Espanol, Trace, Numero, Flair, Cosmopolitan, Cosmopolitan en Espanol,Town and Country, Vibe, Latina, Essence, “W Magazine, Visionaire, Zink, Architectural Digest, House Beautiful, Elle, Elle Décor, Forbes Magazine, American Express Departure Magazine, Conde Nast Traveler, to name just a few. Feature articles have appeared in "The New York Times", "Corriere Della Serra", "The International Herald Tribune", "Dallas Daily News" and "Womens Wear Daily" Her early career, prior to her current involvement with fashion, was in the field of industrial design. Clients ranged from "The Metropolitan Museum of Art", for whom she created many of the reproductions of objects for the "King Tut" show, to Pierre Cardin for whom she helped design his automobile. She also had the privilege to work closely with the famous scientist and art restorer, Gustav Berger. Creating a body of work known as much for its powerful originality and signature style as for its unique aesthetic ambition, Patricia von Musulin seeks to use her work to re-imagine the very idea of jewelry itself. Her collections employ a wide array of materials to evoke deep symbolism and psychological associations. Crystal-like transparency evoke the undulating currents of water, the source of all life. In contrast, the deep black tones of her "Ebony Collection" reflect our cultural fascination with "The Primitive" and the multiracial nature of contemporary urban life. Her work is in the permanent collections of "The Metropolitan Museum of Art", "The Boston Museum of Fine Arts", "The National Museum of American History of the Smithsonian Institution" as well as "The Museum at the Fashion institute of Technology". Although Patricia von Musulin lives a very international lifestyle, at home in Istanbul or Prague as much as New York, all of her designs are manufactured in New York City.

Blackinton & Co Founded North Attleboro, MA As the Civil War raged, Roswell Blackinton (Susanne Ross Blackinton-Juaires great-great-grandfather) co-founded R. Blackinton & Co with Walter Ballou; a full silver house that specialized in silver and goldsmithing, engraving, enameling, metal spinning, and more. The company stands as a significant chapter in the history of American silverware and jewelry manufacturing. Into the early 20th century, R. Blackinton & Company increased its lines to include, at various times, sterling silver jewelry, dresser ware, fancy table pieces, novelties, and 14 karat gold merchandise. In 1937, the company added an exclusive line of fine Sterling flatware and hollowware for retail jewelers. It remained for over 100 years under the management of its founding families until its sale in 1967. One of the companys notable achievements occurred in the mid-1960s when their Marie Louise flatware pattern was selected by the U.S. State Department. This elegant design was chosen for use in all United States embassies around the world, serving as a testament to the companys reputation for producing items of exceptional quality and design. A heritage of quality craftsmanship that S. R. Blackinton continues today.

24" Foree Hunsicker Sterling Luggage Tag/Medal Charm Necklace 24" total length. Weight and measurements in pictures. The whole necklace is sterling. I believe it was all made by Foree Hunsicker and has always been like this. Not every piece is marked. Foree Hunsicker (1932-2015) In 1954, she graduated from the University of Texas with a degree in art. At UT, she was a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority. Later, she studied at Corcoran Gallery in Washington, DC and the Arts Students League in New York City. Foree always had an artistic bent. At various times, she was a painter, clothes designer, and interior decorator. Her greatest success, however, came as a jewelry manufacturer when she started a company in 1987 called Medalias by Foree Hunsicker. At one time employing nearly fifty people, Medalias specialized in luggage tag jewelry, reproducing in sterling silver a wide variety of Victorian-era luggage tags and fashioning them into earrings, necklaces, and other accessories. A fixture for many years in the North Texas design world and at the Apparel Mart, Foree was honored with a Dallas Fashion Award in 1995.

c1940‘s Matl Cross pendant Sterling Turquoise Amethyst and coral Designed by Matilde Poulat (AKA "Matl" (Aztec for "Water") who is & always will be one of my personal favorites that made her fame during the "Mexican Silver Renaissance Days" & later..She was a painter & designer 1st & was born in the Yucatan & later on went to study at the San Carlos Academy in Mexico City at the same time the famous muralist & husband to Frida Kahlo,Diego Rivera was studying there..One of her 1st teachers was a "P.OCHOA",a man whose works you rarely come across & you will find Matl‘s earliest works,emulating Ochoa‘s,which was nothing like the style she ended up owning.She opened shop in 1934 & ended up having her own ‘signature look",which to this day people still pay homage to her designs. She produced some of the most ornate jewelry that was being produced in Mexico back in the day..The inspirations she fell back on were inspired from the Mixtec people of Monte Alban, Oaxaca area. Each designer during the Mexican Silver Renaissance days had their own unique style,but it was Matilde,who brought the beautiful motifs of doves, flowers, and tiny bells that are reminiscent of the whimsical subjects of contemporary Mexican folk art...The beauty of her metal work,was so time consuming & was considered Baroque in style with a undeniably "Mexican"look.. She was known for laying round turquoise or coral cabochons all in one bezel that was then crimped‘ to hold the stones in,rather than setting them individually & you will see the perfect example of this style in this pin,which gives her piece‘s a whole different look,because of this. Another one of her signature styles was her time consuming ‘chasing‘ work in the metal,as well as using ‘pyramidal‘ cuts of amethyst.Every piece made are works of art..She is highly collectible!! She taught her nephew Ricardo Salas the art of jewelry making & taught him her style that was signature to only her & worked side by side her till her death in 1960 & while continuing to stay true & keep her style alive till his death in 2007.

18" Konstantino 18k gold and sterling station necklace 18" long 21.5 grams, clean with no issues. Center parts are 18k gold on one side and 18k gold on toggle.Konstantino was born in Filiadona, a small village located in the heart of Greece, where the Ancient city of Melitea once stood. There, he watched his father closely as he worked on the farm, building machines and tools of his own, developing a great appreciation for the art of hand craftsmanship, history and archaeology. As a young boy, Konstantino would uncover broken ancient ceramics, coins and marbles in the fields, sparking a profound connection to his heritage.1978: A musical influence Following his love for music, Konstantino became a disc jockey in the city of Athens, collecting everything from jazz, blues and rock ‘n roll, to folk music from around the globe. Musical legends and artists inspired a stylistic fluidity that introduced an essence of glam rock to the scene. Konstantino began curating his own aesthetic identity as a creative mind, artist and style icon. Influencing what would become the rule breaking spirit that drives the design team at Konstantino to this day.1983: Jewelry saved my life Konstantino fled the music scene of Athens in search of an oasis, he took a weekend trip to the island of Hydra where he ended up living for the next 15 years. It was on this magical island that he fell in love with jewelry, collecting and curating collections of his own, whereby in 1988 the first Konstantino store opened.1991: Annette Hydra is not only the birthplace of Konstantino’s love for Jewelry but is also where Konstantino met his soon to be wife and creative partner, Annette. Together, from the ground up, Konstantino Jewelry soon established its presence in the United States and global market.1998: Global Impact As the admiration and desire for the Konstantino brand spread, the dream continued to grow, where now our designs can be found in many countries globally. With the addition of a longstanding presence in stores across the United States, Konstantino is honored to represent an evolution of the Grecian style, to the world of fine jewelry lovers.2016: A Family Future Konstantino and Annette’s children, Julian and Phaedra joined the team, further continuing the legacy of passion and risk for the craft of gold smithery and design. This new generation leads with knowledge, humility and a natural instinct for the dynamic of the Konstantino brand. Preserving the brand’s core philosophies and expanding on its already established style, is a challenge that’s been taken on with confidence.

16" Georg Jensen 1 Art Deco Sterling Choker necklace 5/8" wide x 56 grams. No issues whatsoever.Georg Jensen, (born August 31, 1866, Raadvad, Denmark—died October 2, 1935,<br>Copenhagen), Danish silversmith and designer who achieved international<br>prominence for his commercial application of modern metal design. The simple<br>elegance of his works and their emphasis on fine craftsmanship, hallmarks of<br>Jensen’s products, are recognized around the world.<br><br>Jensen was apprenticed to a goldsmith at age 14. His artistic talents were<br>briefly focused on sculpture, but he returned to metalwork, primarily jewelry<br>and silver pieces, produced in the workshop he opened in Copenhagen in 1904.<br>Jensen exhibited his works at several major foreign exhibitions (winning a gold<br>medal at the Brussels Exhibition of 1910) and quickly built a reputation as an<br>outstanding and highly original silversmith. He moved to a larger workshop in<br>1912 and acquired his first factory building in 1919.<br><br>Jensen’s silverware achieved immediate popularity and commercial success. He<br>was, in fact, the first silver maker to realize a profit from the manufacture of<br>modern silver. Until Jensen’s time virtually all successful silverware producers<br>had relied on a standard repertory of popular traditional designs. Jensen,<br>however, found that the market for his sleek, simple pieces was larger than<br>anyone had predicted. His firm grew rapidly, expanding throughout Europe and<br>opening branches in London and New York City. On both continents Jensen’s work<br>set trends for contemporary tableware. He was among the first designers to<br>fashion steel—formerly considered fit only for low-quality, inexpensive<br>flatware—into handsome, serviceable cutlery.

Margot De Taxco 5740 Sterling Pendant/pin and earrings set. Pin has loops and a hook to fix onto a necklace if wanted. Measurements in pics. 23.4 grams. No issues.Margot Van Voorhies was born in 1896 in San Francisco, California. By the time<br>she left her native country for good, she had survived the death of her father<br>in 1903, the San Francisco Earthquake in 1906, the loss of her mother at the<br>hands of a er in 1931 and the end of her first marriage in 1936.<br><br>Fortunately, a Mexican vacation changed the life of Margot Van Voorhies in ways<br>she could never have imagined. In 1937, forty-one-year-old divorcée Margot Van<br>Voorhies left San Francisco on a trip to Mexico City. Fate threw her into the<br>path of Don Antonio Castillo, who took her to Taxco, a Mexican hotbed for the<br>design, crafting, and production of silver objects, in particular jewelry and<br>housewares.<br><br>Soon, Castillo would become Margot’s second husband. At the time, Castillo was<br>working for William Spratling, a pioneer in Mexican silversmithing. He brought<br>Margot into the business as a designer, helping her to transform her paper<br>creations into three-dimensional forms in silver. In 1939, the pair, along with<br>other members of Castillo’s family, opened shop as Los Castillo Taller [Taller<br>is Spanish for “Workshop”], with Margot as the top designer.<br><br>After ten years, the marriage between Castillo and Van Voorhies dissolved, as<br>did their professional association. Margot went on to open her own shop in 1948,<br>taking the name Margot de Taxco, by which she is best known today. Seven years<br>later, enamel was added to many of her pieces, and this is where Margot found<br>her legacy.<br><br>At the peak of her career, Margot, who designed each piece herself, had two<br>dozen silversmiths and a dozen enamellists in her employ to execute her vision.<br>The men performed the duties as silversmiths; the women did the enamel work,<br>using tiny brushes to bring the watercolor drawings to life. To ensure the<br>accurate rendering of her jewelry designs, she compiled a book of instructions<br>and drawings, detailing the construction and finishing of each. Margot attracted<br>talented craftsmen who later went on to cement their own reputations, such as<br>Sigi Pineda, Miguel Melendez, and Melecio Rodriguez.<br><br>Many contemporary Hollywood celebrities were clients of Margot, including John<br>Wayne and Lana Turner, who visited her shop every year.<br><br>Tragedy struck in the form of a fire in 1960. Forced to move her studio, she<br>never again regained her prior success, and the business folded in 1974. Margot<br>granted several of the silversmiths in her employ permission to use her molds to<br>create pieces on their own, in return for debt forgiveness. As a result, many of<br>Margot’s pieces were re-created by silversmiths such as Jaimie Quiroz and<br>Geronimo Fuentes, bearing their hallmark rather than hers.<br><br>Margot passed away in 1985. But her talent as a designer and her influence as an<br>artist have continued to gain recognition since the time of her death.<br><br>Margot’s shop produced some repousse silver (a technique where a raised or<br>relief design is hammered in from the reverse side of the piece). But she is<br>best known for her champlevé enamel work. Champlevé is created by carving,<br>etching, striking, or casting troughs or cells into the surface of a piece and<br>filling it with vitreous enamel. In Margot’s jewelry, the designs were<br>die-struck, a process that was detailed and critical to the final product.<br><br>Margot produced many suites that included necklaces, brooches, bracelets, and<br>earrings, as well as convertible jewelry. Margot de Taxco jewelry is recognized<br>for its elegance, femininity, and variety.<br><br>There were many areas of influence that can be found in Margot’s work. Her fish<br>and wave motifs celebrated her love of Japanese art. The ornate swirls and<br>floral motifs were reminiscent of the Art Nouveau style. Mischievous<br>pre-Columbian figures were a recurring theme. Art Deco style ballerinas struck<br>graceful poses. Margot was also taken with Egyptian motifs and Mexican crafts.<br><br>Margot de Taxco pieces are distinguished by the stamp that includes her name,<br>Eagle 16 (or Eagle 1, for her earlier works), along with a production number.<br>Issued by the government, the eagle stamp was a way to identify th
