Some of the most fabulous jewels of the past, despite their often magnificent elegance, were designed with tongue in cheek and a childlike fascination with trickery and sleight-of-hand by some of the most brilliant artists of their time. The great Marcel Boucher, for example, was a consummate comedian. He abandoned a promising but dull career as a fine jeweler with Cartier for the pleasure of creating ingenious fakes, playful puns, and surrealist figurals. As head designer of Coro, Gene Verrecchio grew a lush Garden of Eden of startlingly realistic flora and then created a menagerie of fanciful critters of every species to inhabit it.It seems the costume jewelry world has always been about fun...fun things...cute things..let the imagination run wild.
We love the discovery, and the learning, the day I stop learning will be the day after I die. So be prepared to spray coffee out your nose and drool on your keyboard as you peruse these pages, since we aim to amuse (as long as I have had my second cup of coffee) as well as educate.
We eat, sleep and breath JEWELRY! Check back often as we will be adding constantly.
And above all, always keep in mind that anything you see on these pages can be YOURS whether you think you can afford it or not, because if you and a jewel are meant for one another, IT WILL BE!! WE LOVE OFFERS!
