REDUCED Show-stopping Huge Easter Egg Stippled Cabs Necklace, Brooch and Earring Set

Jewelry : Vintage : Glitz

 

From my own collection of some 25-years comes this absolutely breathtaking three-piece rhinestone demi-parure with large stippled cabs known as "Easter eggs" in colors of gold, burnt orange, green, yellow and white.

The substantial bib necklace is totally outlined in aurora borealis stones that flash red, purple, gold and blue. A 1" stippled cab is the focal point in front and has a smaller stippled cab on each side. There are two huge clear AB rhinestones, two large smoked-topaz pear-shaped stones, emerald green chatons and two unfoileed emerald-green pears in open-back settings, orange-red AB chatons, deep red navettes, blue AB navettes, all prong-set in bright gold plated settings.

The large heart-shaped brooch is designed in two layers, with topaz AB chatons on the bottom tier on one side and red AB chatons on the other. It has one of the larger stippled cabs and a smaller one, two smoked-topaz pear-shaped stones, two large forest green chatons and five emerald-green navettes in open-back settings. The two tiers make it very dimensional and commanding in presence.

The matching clip earrings each have a 1" stippled cab, blue AB navette, green navette in open-back settings and topaz and orange rhinestones. Whew!

The bib necklace is 16-1/4" long including the hook clasp and extender chain, is 2" wide in the front and curves gracefully around the neckline.

The big brooch is 3" x 2-3/4" and is 3/4" deep. The clip earrings are 1-1/2" long x 1" wide.

Years ago, I asked Frank DeLizza if this set was one of D&E's creations and he replied that it was not but that "it had similar construction and stones and was a wonderfully made set that could pass for D&E". I am not sure what company made this fabulous set but it's a sure winner in the costume jewelry game! All pieces are in great condition with all mechanics working correctly and all stones present, and sparkling and would make a wonderful addition to your collection!
