●Circa: Before 1955
●Approx. Size: Bracelet – 7 3/16″ x 1/2″ (18.2 cm x 1.2 cm), Earrings  – 1 1/16″ x 9/16″ (2.7 cm x 1.5 cm)
●Color, Materials: Gold-tone metal, Rhinestone

●Condition: The chain to prevent the bracelet from falling is missing. The gold coating on protruding parts and parts that are often touched when worn, such as the sides of earring clips, bracelet clasps, and the link parts that connect flower parts, will naturally fade over time.

[The Story of The Popular Costume Jewelry Brands]
Monet

A handbag metal fittings company founded in Rhode Island, USA in 1927. In 1937, Monocraft, a company that made monograms, debuted Monet, a costume jewelry brand. In the 1980s, he also produced jewelry for YSL Yves Saint Laurent. Monet developed earrings and earring clasps that don’t hurt your earlobes, and started stamping not only tags but also individual items. This brand is known for its up-and-coming, high-quality, and modern designs.

This is a nostalgic beauty that brings back memories of when you were a little girl, picking flowers that bloomed in the fields and weaving them into crowns and bracelets. It is an antique bracelet and earring set with a very nice gold texture.

The surface has a delicate engraved pattern, and the design features petals that shine with a sizzle and flower hearts that look like beads and are linked together as a motif. It has a three-dimensional feel and is wonderful craftwork.

The earrings are of a type called friction ear clips, which were patented by Monet in 1947, and were invented to adjust the pressure on the earlobes. Rather than snapping, it stops at the desired position.

This style was originally released as a jewelry clip, and can be used not only as earrings, but also as an accent on hats, jacket collars, buttonholes, pockets, etc. When wearing Japanese clothing, it can also be used as an accessory for kimono or as an obi clip.

Monet is a fashion jewelry brand that continues today, but was founded in 1927 by brothers Jay and Michael Chernow. She is an innovator in the world of vintage costume jewelry, creating women-friendly inventions including earrings and clasps.
